Number 1. Everyone who ever fought the greatest of all time and before time was even created. The man of the hour too sweet to be sour, the man with greatest arms and the greatest charm, from the mean streets of West Linn, Oregon. The one and only Chael P. Sonnen
Anderson Silva, he fought Chael knowing that Chael was undefeated undisputed, and he gave it a valiant effort despite being dominated for four-and-a-half rounds which as we know rounds up to five
Credit to Silva though, he’s the only person to ever make Chael drop a round by making him tap in the 5h of there first fight, good thing Chael dominated the previous 4 though so he still picked up the W.
Very generous of Chael to grant Anderson a rematch. After dominating him for 5 full rounds, he gave Anderson the opportunity to redeem himself. Only to fall victim to Chael's highlight reel spinning elbow knockout in the second round of their rematch.
that fight was so exciting, i thought chael would lose his 100% finish rate, but then last minute he got silva in a triangle. i was jumping up and down
Chael did not lose. He became two division champ after breaking Jon Jone's toe. He took the title from two "GOATs". Anderson Silva 4-1 on the score card and Doctor stoppage with Jon Jones.
I’m confused on the Jones Sonnen entry… Chael destroyed Jones’ foot and the fight was about to be stopped for Chael before the ref goofed and stopped it in favor of Jon…
I always find it funny how close chael actually got to being double champ. No triangle choke, and lasting till the end of the round with Jones, and Chael could’ve had probably the most legendary mma career out there.
All you guys were obviously not in attendance when this fight went down. All you saw were the altered TV broadcast pictures, in reality Chael submitted Jones in 4 seconds with a flying Omoplata..
Hold up a minute… did Stephan Bonnar vs Anderson Silva not make this list?! They cut official UFC promos where Stephan himself was joking about how he was going to get his ass kicked.
He was still Cowboy when he fought Tony and the Gaethje fight was 3 months after the beating Tony gave him. He was supposed to win the Price and Morono fights
@@sukhdevr3489 What's your definition of top tier? I include top 7. Hooker is a solid top 5/top 6 fighter. He earnt his way there and lost to Poirier in a war.
Watching it back it looked like Khabib wanted to test his striking honestly. His corner is yelling at him in 2 different breaks to stick to fathers plan and stop taking so many risks. I think if Khabib went full gas with TD's he could have finished him. I'm no khabib nut hugger either it just looked like Khabib was trying to work his jab way more than necessary
If Jon Jones vs Chael Sonnen isn’t on this list I will lose my mind, Jon wanted no piece of the man with the biggest arms, too much charm and who does all the harm.
It’s badass the warrior symbolic sight of fighting, like putting the honor on the line to face an opponent they know they have zero chance of. It’s like Theyre trynna save their village or maybe tell some jackal stories afterword like Tito.
How is ANDERSON SILVA at 41 on three days notice vs DC not on this list dude was the heavyweight champ 12 months later, and Silva had to fill in for Jon Jones to save the card….. With a huge weight disadvantage during the fight as well.
@@namwarmaster6918 yeah but i mean he was kind of a journeyman trading wins and loses for a long time before he went on his championship run. So maybe unlikely but one day Dan could make it to a Hall of famer if he plays his cards right.
Prime Fedor went into terminator mode when Fujita rocked him, honestly it's the height of kicking ass in mma for me so far. Even though his opponent was sub par compared to him at the time he still vanquished him like a machine that will not be stopped.
The Chael Sonnen and Jones TUF was indeed very entertaining but more importantly, it shows how good of a nice trainer Sonnen can be and how he care for his fighters.
Haven't watched the video yet but one of the first people that comes to mind is Jeremy Kimball fighting Khabib on extremely short notice for his UFC debut. Dudes got balls for sure
Yeah good entry. He was hired to be a punching bag but if I'm not mistaken he won a 50 G bonus and acquired a bunch of attention on social media so good for him
Had Chael survived the first round, he would have won the belt. With Jones breaking his toe and the bone sticking out the skin, the fight woud have been called and Sonnen would have been the new light heavyweight champ. Jones didn't know about the break until Joe Rogan pointed it out in the interview, maybe his coaches saw and told him to end it now, or Jones did what he does and finished it.
@@skateman7151 he wouldn't have beaten him. He would have won the fight and belt by getting his ass kicked 🤣 yeah how crazy would that have been? Coulda changed the division
@@SaudiGod It would be strange to do that in a “fight they knew they’d lose”. Sinead gave it more of a go then Yana did for example. To be honest outside of fixed fights every fighter goes into a match believing they have a chance. They’re the most self confident people in the world.
I know they have to back themselves but it does get frustrating betting on fights when people like hooker claim they know they are gonna be a competitive fight but then get absolutely steam rolled, like they knew they would
"How would a pro wrestler look in a fist fight" hilarious how people forget before going to mma Ken Shamrock, Dan Severn, Kazushi Sakuraba & Minoru Suzuki started as pro wrestlers
Bob Sapp. Holy shit. Im a vikings fan and live in Minnesota. When I first heard Bob Sapps name for pride. I knew it sounded familiar. Amd ya its because he played for my Minnesota vikings
I was the first one to get sad about Tony and Khabib not happening - but that all died when Justin Gaethje beat the brakes off Tony. Any lingering doubt went completely out the window when Gaethje himself then got destroyed by Khabib.
i agree with the bummer feeling about tony vs khabib but just because justin dusted tony doesn't mean khabib would of dusted tony, MMA works in weird ways, styles make the fights.
@@dannyraiemacdonald2698 That's a fair call, MMA maths is weird like that. Shame we'll never know now what would have happened.

Has any fighter ever lost a fight and straight up said "yeah that guy fucked me up" or "yeah I just got my ass kicked" Has anyone ever heard someone say something like that?
Nick almost won that fight and if I remember correctly was out-striking Lawler. Robbie caught him with some good clean shots at the end that finished him, doesn’t mean Nick went 10% in training, don’t be a casual
You have to respect people in that position. Alot of guys would dodge a fight against someone they don't at the very least feel prepared for, especially on short notice.
This may be controversial and not the most appropriate, and you may have already done it. But I’d like to see top 10 worst crimes done by mma fighters. Thanks
How much can you use this Bayliun guy on your videos? Does literally no one else have time? He sounds like Jason Statham who only got half of a lobotomy. He should be narrating Steven Seagal movies at best
Jon got lucky Uncle P's ntko (no touch knockout) misfired and hit his toe instead of his head. Chael still won the fight easily. How could you doubt the only man to simultaneously hold every belt in every division? JBJ never stood a chance.
I feel some kind of ignorance in the cyborg nunes mention. That fight wasn't a standard fight where she was bested. She came running in too hype and got caught. She hasn't done that before she tried to over due in a fight she could have won.
I seen nunes lose....and she has yet to fight someone with that same style. So she may be the greatest for now..but she keeps being privelaged with stand up fighters. It's gonna be a grappler that takes her out
Perhaps, but deep down he must have known this wasn't a great matchup for him. Oh well, he deserves props to stepping up to fight the divisional bogeyman and Islam proved the hype behind him was deserved.
This list could be filled just with Valentina & Amanda’s last opponents.
EDIT: Well this aged like milk.
When all of their opponents are given props just for getting in there lmao
Or the up coming ones. Although they haven't "done" it yet.
Ha! Instead of sacrificing goats to the MMA Gods, we sacrifice these contenders to the GOATS.
I give props to Jennifer Maia, I still can’t believe she was able to win a round against Valentina
I think Cyborg probably thought she could win, or at least I doubt she "knew" she'd lose
Number 1. Everyone who ever fought the greatest of all time and before time was even created. The man of the hour too sweet to be sour, the man with greatest arms and the greatest charm, from the mean streets of West Linn, Oregon. The one and only Chael P. Sonnen
all hail chael
He may not eat T-bone steaks or lift barbell plates, be the women's pet, the men's regret but Chael is damn sure a superstar
And don’t you forget what the P. Stands for!
@@justinnsmma11 🤣😂😂😂😂😂 Chael will never die
I love how Chael makes his way into every mma video in one way or another. The man practically invented the sport
Anderson Silva, he fought Chael knowing that Chael was undefeated undisputed, and he gave it a valiant effort despite being dominated for four-and-a-half rounds which as we know rounds up to five

Very generous of Chael to grant Anderson a rematch. After dominating him for 5 full rounds, he gave Anderson the opportunity to redeem himself. Only to fall victim to Chael's highlight reel spinning elbow knockout in the second round of their rematch.
Its amazing how he is still undefeated

Fake it till u make it.
I’m confused on the Jones Sonnen entry… Chael destroyed Jones’ foot and the fight was about to be stopped for Chael before the ref goofed and stopped it in favor of Jon…
The ref clearly had a big bet on Jones. The yoomin tresh!
