#UFC #UFC279
Li was robbed of opportunity to show off his suit, robbed of a favorable matchup against Tony, robbed of a win against D-Rod, and robbed of an appearance in the Thrill and the Agony sneak peak.
Woulda loved to see a shot of his corner being shocked
Yeah well ..life ain't fair half the time. Cope or die
Tony wouldve lost a fight to half the people in the crowd, dude is way past his prime and should be retired.
3 replies and nothing's there. Possibly s pam, but probably shadow-censored. Y T is so awful.
Apparently, every single reply on this entire video is invisible. Unless you're replying to a thread you created.
From “it’s Tony time” to “it’s time tony” heart breaking
I can't like this comment because it's too sad :( he's a legend
Damn. Well done with this comment tho.
Tony decides when it's time. Have always felt it's just a confidence thing. Lost some as an athlete - even tho the same skills were still there. Assume it's the same for the great El Cucuy.
How Tony's face was leaking and Nate looked so fresh. Then hearing Tony talk like he's back. Soul crushing stuff.... Two legends of the fight game though
yeah after 5 loss in a row, you ain't back, you gone! lol
Pride causes delusion
Tony has the skill lower speed and athleticism of a woman Nate a young lady
We should’ve seen a joint retirement. Tony’s shouldn’t fight these guys
I’m just glad we didn’t see him vs li watching li vs Rodriguez made me think how bad he would of hurt tony he was so fast and sharp and tony just wasn’t
That's the most handshakes I've ever seen Nate done his whole career . 👀💯
Both are from Mexico...that's why
Him and Tony alone did like 20 😂
Real recognizes real
hes raza thats why
@@gulabo2144 Nate was born in Stockton California, and Tony was born in Oxnard California you fool
Man,How Good is Richard Perez More Like A Father Than A Coach...No Wonder Diaz Brothers Beat The Shit Out Of Best Fighters In the World Without A Doubt 💯🙏👑
Absolutely
Khamzat would have sent Nate to the infirmary 100%. UFC 279 mix up was no accident, talk all mess you want just look at the facts. Dana and the ufc had second thoughts. Nate would have been utterly trashed and taken to school. Khamzat was the bigger, stronger and younger fighter. All that cardio don’t mean anything when a monster Chechen is on top of you beating your brains in.
@@BenDover-fc9df lol you may be right, but did you not see how fast Nate sunk that guillotine in?? You can tell he had been practicing that all camp so who's to say that as soon as thumbs up would have tried taking him down he would have sunk that into him? Sure comes out would have put up more of a struggle then Tony but there's definitely a possibility he could have ended it like that, Khamzat is a bitch cuz of all this .
@@BenDover-fc9df cumshot would've been submitted sorry to tell you kid. He's scared and couldn't make weight and now he's shitting his pants at the thought of Paulo Costa
@@BenDover-fc9df ok have fun supporting this chechen who chills with a cruel dictator
Dude it’s always so funny seeing how nonchalant Nick is with everything. Of course only he knows what he’s thinking and he has always seemed to have a hard time expressing himself but seeing him be just chill and all “wassup” with the head nod and shit always makes me laugh
Nicks a g man
Never seen a Diaz brother give THAT much love and respect to an opponent than he did for Tony here
Diaz’s corner throwing up the west side signs had me dying 😂
The chinito guy 😂😂😂
Love how Tonys mother wasn't to worried and told his wife, "see he's fine, it's fine" they took care of each other
Khamzat has such great chemistry with his team... But BJ Penn clapping to Diaz made my day
Diaz v ferguson was basically MMA version of goldberg v undertaker.
No shit😆
very accruate 😂
Or sting vs HHH
I get your point and Nate vs Tony was clearly past their prime but not that bad. Taker vs Goldberg was HORRIBLE and should just be forgotten.
Nah
Whoever told Tony to shoot for a taken down knowing Nate had a whole camp of training for a heavy wrestler is not very smart tbh.
Same dude who told him to throw sand
Tony was losing on feet, he had to do something else.
Yeah he's always had the dumbest coaches
He was getting pieced up tho man had to change it up.
his whole team was shouting for 2 rounds straight to shoot, you can clearly hear it
Man the Diaz brothers history is movie material. Some people see them just as thugs or stoners or who knows what but they are the embodiment of martial arts. Real warriors, huge respect for both of them. NDA
Everybody sees them just like that homie - legends. When they are done with their carriers you will see.
We always look at fighters and ask who is the best.. the best is subjective. The Diaz brothers won't win every fight but they will fuck you up if you give them the chance. Legends of the sport.
@@smitty4fingers250 Only fighters where unlimited rounds would have them undefeated. Then again, everyone has a limit. Even the Diaz Brothers
Nick's changed his family, his hood - the entire world around Nick.
Yea, losing half of his bouts... definitely movie material.
I love Richard Perez man, that man has a heart of gold. I would love to train with him just for a day. He has still so much to give this sport
Seeing Tony like this makes me sad, man. His body wont let him fight the way it used to but his mind just hasn’t realized that yet. In my opinion his legacy is already cemented but i hope he retires and doesnt keep on doing this to himself. Tony’s given a lot to this sport and hasnt received a whole lot back :(
Tony's legacy will be irreparably tarnished with all these back to back to back losses. His career is going the route of BJ Penn's, if he doesn't retire this losing streak will be apart of his legacy.
@@madgavin7568 I hope your wrong. I hope he doesn't go the bj penn route. I was honestly going to say you're wrong, but after I read the BJ Penn part I understand what you mean. His legacy hasn't been tarnished tho
@@honestlee9921 Given how old and washed he looked against Nate, its safe to say he will go down the BJ Penn as he will keep losing to guys he would have easily beaten in his prime. There's only one solution; retirement. Tony's legacy is tarnished because his downfall is now part of his story, you can't talk about Tony Ferguson's career anymore without mentioning his fall from grace. That could have been avoided had he retired after the Gaethje or even the Oliveira loss. But now its too late, a 5 fight losing streak cannot be ignored.
Tony's legacy won't be tarnished because he doesn't have one to begin with. Who did he beat? RDA is his biggest win and that guy came off a KO loss to Alvarez only 4 months before fighting Tony. Then he beat Lee who turned out to be a nobody, and past his prime Pettis and Cerrone. pfft
@@honestlee9921 He is 2 Ls away from the BJ Penn's streak. I would say he had already gone the BJ Penn route if I did not know the context of each loses.
Where's when they kicked out Jhonny Walker???
I can’t believe he went from middle of octagon to barefoot on street
Ufc is the most grimey sports organization,.. UFC channel going to spam this comment?
idk but at first i thought it was fake then I realized it really happened because Commission karens couldn't handle security LOL. it's hilarious
No one cares about that bum 🤣
Thrill of the win, agony of the kick out haha
It's so nice to see how Nick supports his brother Nate, respect Tony for a great fight.
we're all grateful to Khamzat without him missing weight we wouldn't have gotten this fight, props to Tony and nate for this lovely sportsmanship and respect 💪💯.
Would've been the same result. When Khamzat was getting tired after 3 minutes on the treadmill he knew he didn't want none with Nate.
Dude missed weight by 8 pounds and beat a striker with zero wrestling no camp who was preparing for another striker😂 impressive win but his team is acting like he just became champion even though he just beat an unranked welterweight “What DO YOU HAVE TO SAY NOW” gibberish sounding like a dollar general version of Leon’s octagon interview
Nah, I would’ve loved to see Khamzat merc Nate. Would’ve been a fitting end for that bum, Nate.
True . It would have been really sad to see Khamzat beating Nate to a pulp. Thank God he missed weight.
Without him missing weight you would've seen Nate's eulogy
Khamzat after dominating and finishing Kevin Holland in 2 Minutes... "Now give me my Nutella Sticks"
Yo, at 10:49 Tommy Lee is riding Nate’s sack real hard!!!! He looked at Nate like he was looking at Pamela Anderson.😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah, that's so embarrassing. I had to FF through that. That dude just ain't right.
Lol Paulos face when khamzat was making his post fight speech
10:55 Nate Diaz always representing his team!
Love that Nate gave Tony that Respect and shoutout.
Tony is a warrior man but you can only take so many hits to the head. I think it's enough. Clearly his mental health due to so many blows is deteriorating. His health is what's important
Richard Perez is the man seeing how proud and happy is for Nate is awesome
I feel like Kevin Holland is one of those rare UFC fighters that really doesn’t have to worry about getting cut because of losses lol he’s just too likeable and takes on anyone at any time so that even though he’s had a few losses in the past year it really doesn’t lower his stock due to who he fought and the draw he brings regardless of not being a championship winning fighter
Losing like that must mess up with your psyche for sure. He looked down at the end of that fight. Hope he rebounds naturally and becomes happy as he was before.
got that dana white privilege. this man better improve his ground game
How can ya not love the love the Diaz Brothers have for each other !
Richard Perez seems like the sweetest dude. You can tell he's got a lot of love for Nate.
Just happy to see Nate go out with a win and a submission too, his submissions are what made me such a huge fan to begin with
So nice to see Nick. Hopefully he’s better now. He started this whole shit, he deserves some peace of mind and, dare I say, happiness
Go Nate ! Cheers from Argentina
I hate when fighters hang their heads when they lose, they just stepped in the octagon at the highest level, all the respect in the world to these guys cuz this is the greatest sport on the planet, I love watching ufc every Saturday, it makes life pretty fuckn awesome
Tony showed way too much respect to Nate in the fight which imo cost him. He did the same thing in the Cerrone fight in the starting rounds and I rmb his coach told him to stop with that and go after cowboy and we saw how that turned out. I hope he shows out his next fight if he does fight again.
It's good to see Nick smile. 💯💯💯💯💯
love the Diaz Boys!
Always been such a huge fan of Tony Ferguson and even tho I was rooting for Nate Diaz this one hurt me. Props to both legends.
Doesnt look good on Tony Ferguson, Nate Diaz didnt do striking in his training & still he dominated Tony. Tony is training for Li Jingliang & definitely doing a lot of striking training. Tony that I know wont tap to that choke. I would like to see Tony vs Conor at 170 for his last fight.
I would like to see Tony retired. It's unfortunate but that fight vs Justin G left damage on his body that can't heal. Unfortunately Tony time has come and gone.
Tony made and ass out of himself during the fight and after the fight. He made it seem like this was a legendary fight and a participation trophy. Kind of like if you’re married she calls the cops and says you’re yelling at the walls and threatening to kill her and she doesn’t even take your last name
Tony took a dive bro 🤫🤫
midwit take. Nate's been training boxing every single day of his life for 2 decades and you think he's gonna fall off because he didn't focus striking in ONE camp? Bro don't type things on the internet, it's already shitty enough.
I’m not a Conor fan but McNuggets smokes tony rn
Kevin such a huge part of the card. Breaking thru Kevin's previous ceiling. Prolly disappointed he didn't get a chance to throw. But like DC said, Hammy was not taking any chances. With Kevin's fabulous stand-up game.
Ppv of the year for sure 💪🏽
🔥5:20🔥 How awesome was it to see the look on the face of BJ Penn..? The look of Respect & Joy that was smothered with that harsh reality & acceptance that not only has his time come & gone but witnessing the same fate as yet another Great one from the same era has also ended
It feels so good to see Nathan happy
Chimaevs jiu jitsu comes from Terere's lineage style, thats one of the strongest styles of bjj
I like how Nate ran off but not before saying thanks and bye to Joe with a pat on the back
Vamos Tony Ferguson Argentina está siempre con vos Campeón Saludos desde buenos Aires UFC
Crazy how the biggest star of this event is so quiet and discreet... Nick seems to be so humble, lonely and apart from this dimension.
Yep. Movie stuff right there and you don't even need actors.
Referring to the Nate and Tony show , sparring was 👍😊.
BJ was lookin like he was about to tear up after Nate won. Some things come full circle.
Li was done filthy. Hope the lad is alright and comes back strong.
A.Nascimento: "when it comes to preparing, he is always hungry.."
Omg this was one of my favorite episodes!!! Richard Perez is soooo cute! Ahhh him and the General were so excited and proud of Nathan!!! LFG baby!!!
BJ was so happy for Nate 😀
Diaz brother relationship was solid since day 1. They willing to die just to protect one another ❤️❤️
That was awesome. Thanks @ufc
What a fun night, so happy to see Nate Diaz get the W in what may be his final UFC fight 👏👏👏👏
There something mythical wen ever nick Diaz is in the scene . Dude like a unicorn… goosebumps
If you haven’t ever watched “surf ninjas” with Ernie Reyes jr. You’re missing out. Great to see him still thriving
Good way for Nate to go out on top of his MMA career
Khamzat clearly a villain... Man he ran through Kevin... He missed weight and put on a performance...
A middleweight beat a welterweight...big deal
I have been a Diaz from the beginning and I'm glad he won but y'all stop being so hard on Tony. he's an absolute legend and if he wants to keep fighting than let him do his thing. he's earned that right. nothing but love and respect for both men
Absolute Legends
Happy and sad for Tony n Nate ether way I knew end of the night of fight I would’ve been sad I don’t want not one of them to lose to another but happy Nate got win tony legend 🇲🇽🇺🇸🔥
Paulo and the secret juice is my favourite part of this video!
Hahahah i love how Rogan pulled that mic back like ''gimmie dat mic back''
I feel there is a huge conflict on interest that all corners pay also depends on a win vs loss for the fighter. Alot of their celebration at the end of fight is them knowing that they are getting paid more. Percentages and all that crap.
Luv Nate n Tony!! OG's
Nick and Nate is so endearing
nick look way older now than when he fought silva.time flies,he has been partying alot ;)
3:31 "he's always hungry" yeah, the scale told us as much
God gave him all the pain he used to love😥.Still Tony fan till the end🕶️⚔️🥇💙
0:58 Andrew Tate is fucking everywhere 😂😂( p.s - he is standing infront of the gate-)
Don't see anything.
wish they got a shot of Costa when he made Holand tap
Geez, that's one hell of a sneak peak
Tommy Lee+Nate Diaz=carnage, and I love it.
Team Diaz is a vibe, 4 real, would love to meet and train with those guys
Tony❤😭
Tony was trying to impress Nate Diaz the whole time. A guy known for never getting finished, got both Submitted and Knocked out within the last 8 months 🙏
It was an Increedible Card
you see the guys exchanging bet money @6:21 between each other 😂
Tony be good to yourself Your loved man!
Man you can tell how much Richard Perez loves nate
Nicks brutal honesty knowing khamzat would beat Nate.
This is my favourite part 💟
The rock star of the UFC!! Who else on earth has one of if not the biggest rock star of all time, treating him likes he's the rock Star!!!!! Awesome!!! Takes a whole lot more than money to do that!!! That's personality!!
WAS A AMAZIN CARD WILL NEVER FORGET
Tony jumping around doing the most after his loss meanwhile his wife looks so embarrassed, like, "bruh, sit cho ass down! We lost, let's GTFOH 🤦🏼♀️"
Joe: Congrats with the win Khamzat: AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
6:00, the guy wiping Tony down looks like Chuck Liddell if he had hair
Nate recognises real and he respects Tony. I hope he does well whatever he does next.
Tony Ferguson for life ... The most fearless character ever brother
As much as I’m not a huge fan of Tony, I feel bad looking at how much he still loves the fight game and isn’t backing down despite the losses. He has my respect
I feel so bad for Tony he really needs to let it go man it hurts watching him like this and it's so cringy him getting up on the cage and the other theatrics after loosing like that
I agree to an extent. But Tony is a warrior and deserves to do whatever he wants when he is in the cage.
Nah dude it's not cringy that he went up on the cage. People love Tony. But yes I agree he should retire. Too much head damage ain't good
@@stickygusman740 it definitely is cringey because my guy literally hasn’t done shit 💀 u cant say you guys got a superfight and 4 rounds of carnage when u couldnt even cut NATE DIAZ 😭
Tony has been one of my fav’s for years. This last couple years has been a rough fall, and at this point it’s only gonna get a lot worse if someone doesn’t get through to him. He’s not the same guyz
Bro he’s trying to stay positive, wtf is he supposed to do?
The only time BJ Penn smiles is when Nick comes around
thats how you know it wasnt set up even the fighters were confused with the matchups.
Two OGs
1:57 That’s really embarrassing for Paulo 😂 Chimaev used him for hype on fight week and left him hanging dry
I like how they toned down the booing for Khamzhat in the edit.
That kid just got given the last ever UFC gloves to punch nate Diaz in the face. Gifted by el cucui himself.
Just imagine if Khamzat got his hands on Nate. Omg he could have gotten hurt bad, especially if Khamzat kept it standing and just punish him. The mma world would have made Sean Shelby and Dana White retire lol
Nate: alright stop laughing at Nick.. solid human being
Does this win can put Chimaev in the MiddleWeight ranking? Or is it invalid because of the catch weight
Invalid because of catch weight.
It won’t reflect as a middleweight victory
