I remember watching his debut and he won me over when he said “thank you Mr Rogan”
In his defense, that was before he knew Joe tried to beat a virus with antibiotics and horse de-wormer.
@@markjung2766 spoken like a true 🐑 🤣
@PJ Rivera well tbh you either need crazy power or crazy chin to counter that and chris has none of them
@@markjung2766 tried? And yet succeeded.
How the ref didn’t stop the fight after the knockout on the last fight is crazy
Derrick Lewis sent this dude to the shadow realm 😂
And tai send him to ghost club
@PJ Rivera Old man JDS beat both Tai and Lewis quite handily.
I think Daukaus beat Lewis and Tai but lose against Blaydes.
@@bomalpatriote7265 Lewis knocked him out lol
Everyone has 😢
So brutal, looks like a bunch of assaults lol. He stuns them and then he can do whatever he wants. Its pretty nuts
@George Washington thank you george washington. but i think you’re in denial
@PJ Rivera fr put that BOY to sleep lol
He sure got some power but he looks really undersized for a HW... if he cuts down to 205 I think he might be really hard to stop. What do you guys think?
In the words of Khabib: to old brotha.
True, he looks like a chubby 205’er
I think he's like an all-right size, but I do know what you mean by him being small and there is a possibility he could cut down to 205
@@noblemrbutt8349 yea I think Lewis really outsized him and the other big lads in this division might, too^^
If he was shredded he could probably be a middleweight
Chris is a proper Philly lad
they really just gonna pretend like D. Lewis didn't flatten this man like a month or 2 ago. lol
3 months, December Saturday 18th 2021 Fight Night.
@@joooanit0224 thanks wiki
@@sportshorts1766 You're welcome.
Then Lewis got beat up worse against Tuivasa
Bro I fucking knew they'd throw him at Blaydes. I called that shit.
If Blaydes fumbles here I really don’t know if I’ll ever pick him again.
bro rose and dropped to the bottom of the sea right after
And if he takes off the extra fat, the belly flab he could possibly go to LHW and be elite
He will have lose skin. I am not sure he can cut to 205. No true heavyweight ever moved down to 205
He used to be 300+ lbs... He has lost all that extra flab and his skin is still not used to it so he just "looks" flabby...
@@kaladinstormblessed765 he could definitely make 205lbs if he wanted to.
@@MikeyLee559 i don't think so
@@kaladinstormblessed765 if Jared Cannonier could go from heavyweight to middleweight, Chris can definitely make 205
When a guy just got knocked out and is going into a fight as an underdog is not the time to post a "Rise of" video.
Honestly bruh, fucka just got flatlined
Theyve done it for other fighters. I'm pretty sure they did a kattar one aswell when he lost to max
Great stuff very humble fantastic skills, quick for a big guy. Hope he continues to do well and become a champion one day.
Humble and violent! Huge fan of the Daukaus Brothers! Love from miami 🏝❤️🔥🙏
He got some power punches bro, and very accurate...
Him & Blaydes will fight for the open gatekeeper spot when lewis retires.
And fall- Derrick Lewis
I saw Chris Daukaus vs Shamil Abdurakhimov live and his speed and power of the punches are just insane
Now do a video called the fall of Chris Daukaus
He’s so loose in the shoulders when he punches, it’s beautiful
He’s apart of the new generation of Heavyweights 💥👊🏼
No, Daukuas is Terrible.
I'm taking Daukaus to knock out Blaydes this weekend. His striking is on another level.
@PJ Rivera They both got knocked out by Lewis so that's has no bearing on this fight.
@@ishmael_03 yeah if you don’t attempt any further analysis besides the common denominator, sure. Curtis takes and holds down big guys, and Daukaus is small for HW. not saying he doesn’t have a good chance but this is a tough match for him
lol he shouldn’t have quit his day job
Shut up causal
OHHHOHOHOHHOHOO!!! That knee to Porter was VISCOUS bro! Daymn!
Classy person ✊🏼
First HW I see that has no legit reliable KO power but still it'll be interesting to see this new type of HW with better movement and speed. 🔥
Great knockouts
Herb dean with the late stoppage for oleinik that was brutal
LETS GO CHRISSSSSS can’t fkn wait for my man to fight again
bro it’s crazy to literally have trained with this guy at martinez bjj on cottman ave
who’s here after seeing him get removed from the ufc roster 😅
Philly loves you ☝️
Man stand up Philly were getting another shot! A very tough fight man I hope Daukus shows us something I'm unaware of so far!!!
My god, his accuracy is insane for a heavy one
I’d like to see daukaus vs aspinall in the future
I like this dude. I really didn't want him to take the Lewis fight though. Will be interesting to see if he can get up from the takedowns of Blaydes
why didnt we get aspinal vs daukus. i would think thats the perfect fight for matchmakers. unless maybe theyre trying to strategicly build stars. ik ufc needs more HWs
Lol at everyone body shaming a man who Is a literal pro athlete
Make a 'Fall of Chris Daukaus'
Man I miss Hardy on commentary 🖤
Would love to see this dude vs Tom Asspinol!
I think Tom's some miles ahead of him tbh^^
@@athosdalvarek918 facts. I would like to see Chris vs tai
Olenik was out on his feet what the hell was that late stoppage herb
Daukaus has good hands and skills if he didn't looks scared against Lewis back then he has chance to put good fight
Another “rise of” video released after the fighter suffers a brutal loss
CD is small for a HW but quick!
Those brothers
First ever steven schapiro tribute out now
this dude should be at LHW
Speed and weight!
Chris "Technical and Tight" Daukaus
never noticed, but looks like porter may've really jacked that ankle up when he fell
god damn his aim is good
Y’all playing he get a good combo in especially if blades try that wrestling shit ion know don’t sleep on my mans 🤫
What a shame. He had crazy crisp boxing. Reality is he was a middleweight knocking out heavyweights. If he had started sooner he would have been a serious threat.
Hello 👍🌹
He should cut to 205, lets be honest. He is so small compared to the top 10 heavyweights and can clearly lose some fat.
I hope the Octagon is bigger this time
1:42 that’s some serious gyno👀
gosh.
Lfg chris
UFC really wants to see this guy on the top offering him 2 consective top 5 heavyweights. couldn't take out derrick lewis so they give him the next guy. Curtis Blaydes with the W.
Daukaus is fast but undersized for HW imo. Curtis Blaydes by arm triangle choke second round.
*gets knocked out* The rise of Chris Daukus
Nice addition to the heavyweight field but I don’t see him beating anyone in the top 5. Blaydes beats him
@Eight Loco I can’t see him standing and banging with tuivasa. It’s heavyweight you never know but I don’t think so. And Blaydes has only lost to fighters with elite power. So I don’t see that happening.
This didn't age well
No hes gotta retire
@@rubendelgado9918police karma
Wooooo😯😯
Bulking season fights
Always, Herb "If He dies, He Dies" Dean
There's no doubting it daukaus is good but while tom aspinall's around he'll alway's be second best in that incounter..
Doubt it
@@sportshorts1766 one word is needed for to prove Tom can beat him and it is his takedowns
Chris got no chance against Aspinall, gane, ngannou, blades, Lewis and many other heavy weights, just another fat can crusher
Rise was as fast as his fall.
The Josh Barnett of this era?
I'm going to be on top of the MUSIC INDUSTRY, I promise 😳📈🌎🚀
W
now we need to deal with all his promo when we just saw it a few months ago at Lewis vs Daukas. All the exact same marketing again because it's a main event and not a thing changed, annoying, but ufc
@PJ Rivera yeah man. same finishes same storyline same highlights, just gets fed down our throats that whoever they promote is a killer
Aspinall and Daukaus had a very similar rise until they both faced the killers of the division. Aspinall could get it done while the other couldn't.
Last one the ref fckd up big time.
Waiting for a new video that says "the rapid" fall of "Chris daukaus" also we all know that black fighters is this dude's kryptonite!!! He's on his 3rd knockout in a row!!!! This guy's not elite at all...he does not even belong in the top 15 let alone being ranked number 11th# heavyweight in the division, he belongs in the LHW division fighting can crusher's kinda like his own self!!! Thing is I liked him a little bit but he has no style and has a horrible strategy going into fights, he has no chin, no ground game and no defense.
Any ranked fighter is his kryptonite. Definitely not a race thing you weirdo
@@brandonkmma I'm still waiting for Chris to wake up from the knockout, the guys a quitter and gave up immediately after getting knocked down, he wanted no parts on trying to recover and try to fight.
0:53 "The Back Fist Of DOOM"
He needs to go to LHW. He looked small and afraid of getting hit vs Lewis
He destroyed Lewis
@@sportshorts1766 damn fr? Shit I though he went to sleep, my bad
@@sportshorts1766 yep he really put a beating on Lewis's hands with his face quite a sight
And lets not forget Kyle Daukaus....
Good guy but he isn't ready for Blaydes
Damm herb dean had money on olenyek 😂😂
Let's be real. I like the guy, but there is no way he can keep up with the top 5 heavyweights with his present skill set and physique
Bro doesn’t have enough power and a good chin for HW, and sadly he doesn’t have good enough techniques for LHW either
Looks like a different person without a beard

Show the Derrick Lewis fight 😂
I feel bad for Chris. He left his job thinking he was going to have a career in the UFC. Got KO'ed. Then gets served up the most underrated HWY as his bounce back fight. I hope the police department will take him back early next year.
"got ko'ed"? By who? I thought that he was undefeated in the ufc.
@@bomalpatriote7265 Derrik Lewis put him out in the first round in December.
Blaydes is HOT GARBAGE 🔥....Daukaus will KO that chinny loser 100% Guaranteed
Ezekiel.... I hit them from the bottom...
He's gonna get ko'd
I DONT MISS DAN HARDYS VOICE
Only way he beats blaydes is with a lucky punch,problem with him is he really only throws slow hooks,and blaydes is just gonna get under them for a takedown,he better have knee ready for blaydes.
He should drop to 205
So we're just going to act like Lewis didn't just sleep this dude like 3 months ago..
So ur not good when u get smoked once
O you don't have the right, O you don't have the right By the way you don't have the right; O you don't have the right
How did Derrick Lewis manage to ko this guy ?? It's crazy
Same way Blades did
Dan Hardy was your best analyst
💥
Bad fight for him against Blaydes
Rise of Chris Daukaus lol just got slept by Derrick Lewis😅
this aged like milk in the arizona sun
The rise of who??
