what alex said was actually wholesome "I want to rescue him the same way he rescued me because he is too talented to not fight" how could you not like poatan
best friendship ever
thanks for translating correctly, his coach did a poor job translate what alex said, he didn't even mention izzy name thank god joe rogan was there
It's like a rivalry from Rocky movie

Yes, and nobody is talking about that
Being champion in two divisions of a sport is already pretty damn hard, but being champion in two divisions of two different sports is absolutely insane. What a beast.

I'm happy Jiri admitted he was out to avoid any controversy about the stoppage. Very noble of him.
Yeah I respect that, dude has some rare honor
Indeed. Because we all know it really was an early stoppage.
@@ursamajor7320it was early but Jiri fell twice, that type of finish f*ck every referee... The guy falls and you think "I'm giving him a time to get up", and then he fall again, so you think "ok, it's over" but then he just get up, understandable stoppage
@@sjm3797what about in the prelim fight? Sadykhov vs borshchev looked like dude was out and ref didnt stop it, regardless of what jiri said that shit was an early stoppage imo
I wanted Alex to win and I knew he would win but not gonna lie I felt so bad for Jiri in post fight interview. Dude was so disappointed and sad to lose. At least he lost to another warrior. He will be back. Hopefully now he realizes he needs to put that guard up and not just swing wildly like madman.
I lost my shit when he said “come to daddy”😂😂
Izzy is in depression right now
I cannot believe what i just saw. this is the best time to be an mma fan, this will go down in history. two straight warriors in this game. Jiri and alex. pure soldiers
😂💀
Come to 🗿
Meanwhile Jamal Hil crying for attention PS: I have bad videos
Dude's storyline is unmatched. Current Hall of Famer in Kickboxing, Double UFC champion. All because Izzy opened his mouth.
I know as an Izzy fan it is supposed to hurt but Poatan is just likeable and whether you're an Izzy fan like I am it is hard not to be impressed by the body of work he has accomplished within this short period of time😂if Izzy had to open his mouth he did it to the right person at least
Izzy was also right when he said middleweight division should thank him for Making Alex move up...😅 truth be told,nobody in the Division would step up to Alex,Not even Sean!😅
He literally said on the interview that izzy rescued him and he wants to do the same for izzy, he wants to rescue him instead of seeing him wilting until 2027.
He is the definition of "fck around and find out" 🍻
@@JayCosmos56 you're calling Alex Pereira a kid, because I am merely saying what he said in the octagon because he certainly believes what izzy said. What a stupid response.

THE CORRECT WORD PER WORD TRANSLATION TO ENGLISH SPEAKERS: "Heres the thing, i'm not the type of guy that calls out people, but i really want a fight that i think it would be very interesting for me and everybody. It's a person that motivated me, when i was down. He said that i would be the old guy in a bar drinking and watching him on the TV. He literally rescued me from that bar with that message, he pulled me back. This same person said recently that he wouldn't fight until 2027. And me too, the same way he rescued me, i want to rescue him, because he's a great talent, and he can't go all this time without fighting. It's Adesanya."

From losing one title at the start of the year, to becoming a contender and a champion again in a new division, it's been a remarkable year for Alex. Him getting that win in the corner against Jiri was somewhat similar to how Izzy got a win in the corner against him.
Easily fighter of the year
Izzy thought he is the main character. Turns out, it was Alex the whole time!
Similar to izzy vs Robert 1 lol
Alex’s leg kicks are so deadly. I don’t think anyone on the planet can truly stand in front of that man and not be terrified.
Yeah, or invent a whole new style of fighting. On all fours? Jiri's ass-punch? (Jiri said that to an interviewer -- someone Drama.)

Rescue him by giving him this 💪🏼 thats the respect he deserves, an a$$ whipping for being petty
Lol no, it's so funny how everyone is misinterpreting what Pereira intended. He was being sarcastic. Adesanya never motivated him. He quit drinking like 10 years before Izzy did thst interview mocking him and was a double champ kickboxer. He was being sarcastic and turning the mocking that Adesnaya did to him back on Izzy because the circumstances are perfect for it right now.
@@Eric-nh2ybno sir You are totally wrong. He really respects izzy and no way he meant to be sarcastic. He just wanted to pass the msg.
A living legend, hands of stone indeed. Respect to Glover also for taking alex under his wings, Brazilian brotherhood is so admirable. Anyone who says early stoppage doesn't understand what an assassin Alex is, Yuri does... And now he can come back and rematch the monster eventually instead of being in a comma or permanently damaged. Well done Mark so Goddard
Probably one of the best comments I've read on this comment section. Props to you dude!
jiri? nice one
@@thephilosopher7173 thanks brother, appreciate it
@@thephilosopher7173To me this reads like a heavingly arrogant and thoughtlessly dismissive way to flex about early stoppage. As in if he is correct, this is not magnanimous, it is merely, truism. Ignoring Yuri having long inactivity is an issue, the injury might still be a problem. Whatever those things are OR ARE NOT, Yuri still could be done.
@Giwr... "Anyone who says early stoppage doesn't understand... what an arrogant comment. Most MMA fighters thought it was an early stoppage, including Rogan and Cormier. Jiri was fully conscious and had purposefully fell backwards on his back to the ground to defend himself, when Goddard stopped it. Early stoppages happen all the time, and this is a great example it. Nothing against Pereira tho.
That short left hook literally lifted Jiri off his feet. This guy is not human, legendary stuff
Nobody got lifted. Jiri lost balance and was on his knees this was one of the worst break ups ive ever seen. Jiri literally was winning the fight.

Got the ref to thank. Jiri was hurt but not hurt enough, I think he could have recovered... we've seen fighters come back and save themselves before and many were more hurt than Jiri was
I'd imagine Alex only learnt English to say THAT to Adesanya. What a rivalry.
This was literally opposite to what I anticipated , Jira was powerful , ninja moves , excellent grappling shouldn't be hard for him. But Alex with his knocking streaks comes up again. Brilliant performance by Champ Pereira.
Jiri is winning until that early stoppage

Hands down man down
Alex has proven himself in such a short run in the ufc, truly one of the greatest things to happen in this sport.
I like alex but jiri won the fight. It was one of the worst robberies in ufc history and nobody talks about it. Jiri lost balance he wasnt even down just on his knees. Peirera who has no groundgame just went on top of it. 15 sec later the positi8n would prolly be reversed.very sad robbery

Appreciate this man while he's here, it sucks he wasn't in the UFC when he was younger. A Halley's Comet of an Athlete for sure 💎 💎
His time in Glory made him who he is today.
He may not have been so good if he was here from his younger days. He would have accumulated far more damage over the years if he chose MMA over kickboxing.
The real issue is he started sports at the age of 23 to quit alcoholism... if only he started as a kid like everyone else...

Wasn’t sure about the stoppage until Jiri said himself he was out.. what power Alex has 👊🔥
He was out with Reyes and then destroyed his career, Jiri would have done the same to Pereira

JOE ROGAN SAID THERE WAS A SCRABBLE. THERE WAS NO SCRABBLE ALEX WAS ON TOP OF JIRI WHEN THE REF STOPPED THE FIGHT WTF
He is planting seeds for huge money fight, avenging his loss, ending rivalry and motivating his frenemy to dig deep during hard times. Grandmaster chess move by Poatan
Bro destroyed Jiri's leg on the first kick 💀
the amount of power Pereira generates from such a short left hook is incredible
Love how he said he's an active fighter. It's great to see in a world where a lot of these fighters are just having two fights a year.
Happy for Poatan Much respect to Jiri. What a face off and fight. 🎉
Sometimes, criticisms and insults are the biggest motivation for someone to work hard and become great. Congrats Alex
so happy for this guy - epitome of class, coolness and humility. CHAMA 🏆🔥
“Come to daddy” 😂😂😂
This dude is a certified badass and soon to be a legend in the fight sports.
"I don't usually call anyone out, but there's a fight that I want, which is interesting to me, and I'm sure it will be interesting for everyone. It's someone who somehow encouraged me when I was at a bar drinking, but with that video(interview), he saved me. He recently said he'll only fight again in 2027, so just as he saved me, I want to save this guy because it's talent that can't stay idle for so long - it's Adesanya. With all due respect, he made me go through 3 fights to earn a title shot. Now he can come directly to face me. I know it's a bit strange for me as the champion to call him out this way, but I still have unfinished business to settle. Adesanya, come to daddy"
Middleweight Champ/Light Heavyweight Champ..... wow man how effing sweet is that? Glover Texiera was right about Alex over a year ago. He said Alex has to tools to be a Legend with just a little more training.
Double Champ in both mma and kickboxing thats crazy this man is a different breed😅
a double champ is like DC and Connor.
Alex will reign for loooooong. I like him best when he's logged in. And he has now understood the business, psychological and political side combat sports. He's going to remain relevant as long as he sustains this mindset
MUCH respect for Jiri here. No whining or excuses. 100% emotional, but holding back tears. Hope to see him back soon. Him vs Whitaker would be fire. Alex has done everything now that Izzy wanted to do. Also an amazing guy!!! Alex vs Jamal - wow great stuff. Surely Alex will be the -250 fav there. Sorry, but Jamal's dad bod just won't get it done against this Superman, or should I say 'Daddy!" 👑
bro Whittaker is middleweight and jiri is light heavyweight, right?
Izzy: goes for double Champ, doesnt get it Alex: 🗿👑 🗿👑
he has it harder than alex
Many people choose to ignore the fact that Alex didn't defend he's belt I mean you have to atleast defend it a couple of times to become a very great champion but izzy already stopped that I gotta feeling jamal will do it to Alex also
Crazy how it looked like there was barely any power thrown in that left hook but it still dropped jiri.
There was a lot of power in very short left hook
That's because there was A LOT of power, even if it didn't looked like that.
That left hand is something man, he just need to touch you with it and you sleep
jiri's leg hurts already thats one of the reasons
people doubting pereira blows my mind, i knew jiri was in trouble before the fight even started. jamahal hill will be another victim but i think he will do alot better than jiri giving us interesting fight
This was by far one of the best post fight interviews.
One of the greatest combat sports athletes ever.. my 2nd favorite mma foghter rn
It was an Honor being in attendance for this card. Damn near every fight was a banger
Even the girls handled business
how much was the ticket
@caderzz I brought them with credit when it was at 785. Then jones pulling out caused a big decrease. I had already made a payment on the credit aswell and didn't wanna fuck up my credit score so I just left as is. But they were 370ish about 3 days before the fight to happen.
@@caderzz never buying tickets with credit again😂😂
@@Manuel-hd8qf not as bad as i thought i saw people saying they were 1k+. ufc in the uk is bare fucked since they only do it at the o2 which can’t handle the amount of people that would be there. so scalpers just run the price up
