Mike Perry is the man. Seems like he's matured alot and is in a proper good place nowadays. Intelligent too.

Topuria must have watched a different BMF title fight than the rest of us did. The UFC was hiding Topuria from Max because he kept beating all the top contenders. He clearly doesn't deserve to fight for the BMF.

I was surprised it got FoTN, tbh. Aside from the last 10-seconds, Max dominated the fight. Gaethje looked lost after breaking his nose and getting eye-poked twice. He had no strategy besides leg-kicks which Max handled surprisingly well. He did knock Max down for the first time in his career, but only landed two other significant head-strikes -- which admittedly would have rocked anyone else but Max. Everyone said it was FoTN because Dana White did and the media ran with it.
I really hope they make Topuria vs Holloway next. I have no idea who wins that one but I think fans who were calling Ilia scared on Saturday are delusional and just don’t like him on a personal level since he put Volk to sleep 😂

We really need a Nick Diaz/Jiri Prochaska interview
Hell ya this is such a a solid show here
The narrative that ilia is trying to paint about max and volk is hilarious lol. He says volk was champion so he is a beast because he beat him… but then says max isn’t very good lol like max wasnt champion as well. And also it’s important to remember ufc casuals… it might officially be 3-0 to volk against max but in reality it’s 2-1 volk. Max was robbed in the 2nd fight. While volk was still winning the series people wouldn’t think of max so bad if it actually was 2-1 and not 3-0

Might even be 2-1 in favor of Max. Those first two fights were extremely close so just shows how good Max is. Ilia ain’t making sense

What's the reason they took down the live chat this time? 🙄
Im a huge Jiri fan. Use my comment as a support beacon, he really deserves another shot at the LHW title. (and im also a Poatan fan)
Epic show
May 6th lol!! I'll forget this show exists by then my memory is really bad
A lot of us were moaning about too much WWE/ not enough MMA, I have to say, they delivered the last two shows all business
Looks like The MMA Hour is serving up a knockout lineup today!
Did they take a break?
Max is hittable and Illia is very strong and short. Holloway does bad against Manlets. Volk killed him 3rd fight almost.

Max WAS hittable. He’s defense has improved very much over the years. It’ll all come down to if Max can manage the distance , keep Ilia on the outside, and stay off the fence. Those are all things Max is Elite but it’s also things Ilia is great at eliminating. When it ever it happens it’s Gonna be such an interesting fight
I just feel like the BMF belt has to be defended in a BMF style of fight, sort of an unwritten agreement between the two fighters to compete a little differently...AKA stand and bang. That's my only issue with automatically saying the BMF belt should be on the line whenever the current belt holder competes. Agreeing to a BMF bout is completely different than agreeing to any other type of fight. Thats just my interpretation and maybe others will disagree?
@khall187
12 күн бұрын
Nope agree 100%! It's simple: You only win the belt if you take it by finish.
Nickal had no business on the card
Ariel “what’s wrong with Ryan” Oscar “😏 I’ve been giving him the good stuff”
I understand you said the pace of UFC 300. It was great Boom Boom Boom, But.. I realized that alot of the undercard fights walkouts got cut. Me as a fan. Sometimes the walk-outs can be the best part and its how you can understand the personalities of the fighters. I guess that was the only downfall to me of the crazy pace The UFC had at 300. That's All though. The Fights we're incredible!!!

Topuria's ego will be his undoing, by the end of the year.
Can anyone shed light on what Ariel means when he says "ya know yourself?" He said it like 75 times during the 'distracted by soccer' segment. Is this a thing people say, and if you, what is the correct context?
Champions wanna become double champ before defending alot
Oscar came on with the sniffles
The reason for the paper is because he was waiting on the response from Arman to see if he was accepting that fight. Once they got his answer, then they gave Dana the paper so he could announce. I don't understand why you have such a problem with announcing it a certain way . He wanted the fighters on UFC 300 to have their moment and didn't want anything to be taken away from them. Who cares how you announce a fight. It's literally going to make zero difference in pay-per-view sales. People are just always going to find something to gripe about. Just be happy. You had an awesome night of fights, and more awesome ones coming. That should be celebrated
Hi Ariel and crew (please excuse my username - I made this account when I was 11. First time commenter and listener since my MMA fandom began through watching the Islam vs Charles card. just wanted to share my opinion on why Dana announced the Conor Chandler fight at the post fight press conference. I think it’s because they are strategically using Dana as the marketing of the UFC due to his fame. He is possibly more famous than every fighter on the roster except Conor and his appearances on the Nelk podcast have made him a recognisable face to a younger generation. There are also multiple memes featuring Dana such as the massive hands one and “oil me up” which will likely be familiar to large portions of the casual audience and some non-mma fans may have seen these memes. We also know how much stock Dana takes in social media metrics because of how he talks about the online engagement regarding power slap. have no idea why the fight was announced so unceremoniously other than to show Conor “who’s the boss “ but that’s my take on why it’s Dana specifically who makes the announcement. Keep up the good work and much appreciation comes from Evan from Leeds.

The UFC are master promoters. Jiri was top of the prelims because it’s likely going to be a great fight and people will see it and buy the PPV. Those people then see Bo who is an up and comer that the UFC want to push, and they were counting on him keeping the momentum which he did. It’s not like he has any say over where on the card he fight or even what card he’s on. The UFC wanted him there to get eyes in him and build his popularity, simple as that.
Ilia 🔥🔥🔥🔥🦍
Who cares how they announced it, just be happy we got it damn
Yan was completely sleep end of the first round. Fight should have been stopped
Bo, "who you fighting" ??? Um, Gilbert Burns, Kumaru Usman, Robert Whittaker, and you ??? ummm cant wait for your humble pie ginger boi

Love Jiri, but his interviews are stale to say the least. We’ve heard all about his solitude in the forest. It would actually be nice to have an interpreter since I’m sure he has so much more to articulate in his native tongue.
GC agrees with everything Ariel says... And when Ariel disagrees with GC, GC then agrees with Ariel, to disagree with himself 🙄... Take that man's 🍤 out your mouth
Gotta love Chandler.
4:05:11 lol
Whats hilarious is this guy ilia is saying he wasnt impressed with the bmf fight.. this the same dude who was a punch away from being unconscious vs a dude nicknamed as the junkyard dog. Jai Herbert.. but max knocking justin gaethje out cold, with a second to go.. arguably was up 5 rounds prior to that..but this lil squirt wasnt impressed? Saying he wont fight ortega is CRAZY.. yes he knocked out Alex..but thats really it for high level competition.. herbert.. emmett.. bryce Mitchell.. ortega has 10x the competition. Holloway has more wins than ilia has years on earth. Than for him to act like he will bless conor with a fight if he beats chandler.. a fight for the bmf title.. at 170.. is comical.. ILIA. BUD. YOUR 5'5.. YOU CANT JUST OFFER CONOR A TITLE FIGHT, WITH A BELT YOU DONT HAVE LMFAO.. max is the bmf.. & at this point, you need max WAY more than he needs you..hes held that belt you have for a very long time. & at this point the bmf belt carries more weight than the 145 belt. Stop talking.. ppvs going out the winda'

The interviews were great, but Ariel was on one today. He was so disrespectful to Frank today. Complaining about the spray, not thanking him or Joe for fixing his (simple) WiFi info, and constantly asking Frank what to do after he told you 3 times already! If that's your dynamic, then whatever. But an outside/new viewer will think you're just a pretentious asshole treating Frank like an errand boy! Disgusting! Also, how much do you need your ego stroked in a week?!?! "I made the dinner between you and Ryan, right?" "I can take credit for that happening." Are you kidding me?!?! Who cares if you made a dinner happen?! Who cares about taking credit for something like this?! If you care that much, let Oscar give you credit unprompted! It's less needy and pathetic!
