Gane does not deserve another title shot in the slightest lol. Should 100% be Blaydes
Tom is scared of Blaydes.
not like hes gonna win it
Gane getting a title shot makes as much sense as Izzy getting another title shot. The UFC doesn't follow any logic when handing out free opportunities 😅
Yeah
@@chiquita683 🤣🤣🤣
It’s the real title. Strip jones.
Don’t be daft
Y
We may never see Jones fight again. Jones is also only a paper champ. Didn’t beat a real champion.
@@eIicitJones is being daft He's clearly ducking Tom he wants no part of him, he wants to fight Stipe and then retire because he knows Tom will expose him
@@cjjoe2385You should thank your buddy Dana White for not making the fight when both guys wanted it. Jones fought for the vacant belt and won it
Say what you want about Tom but the man wants to fight. Consistently.
Exactly. Young lion. New group of guys needs to take the torch at the top of the division. It's been the same names for years.
Oh yeah? Does he?
@@poppanug Yes. He's never turned down a fight, is always ready with a callout and accepted the biggest fight of his life on 20 days notice. You can't be much more keen to fight than that.
@@ddandymann 😂😂 okay bud.
@@poppanugCope
Bareo defended the interim belt when cruz was injured, that’s the only interim defense I remember.
Ferguson vs Gaethje
@@rileyhasarms4275 No Ferguson had already been stripped by then. Him against Gaethje was actually his 3rd fight after winning the interim title
Tony was stripped of the belt
Big Nog defended. Or. well. attempted to defend I guess. Wonder if that was before or after the bus incident
@@Freydale you mean the bus incident where the Nog brothers tried to feed a carrot to a bus while the other was petting it???
For interest sake, Nogeira and Renan Barao defended interims, long time ago
Nogeria lost against Mir so I don’t think it counts
We need to see Tom try and avenge the loss to Blaydes.
This makes sense and writes itself
It’s actually more interesting than just that because in the same way Tom has a loss that no one really considers a ‘proper’ loss, Blaydes has a win that no one, including himself, see as a ‘proper’ win. As such Blaydes also has motivation to go and prove that he can actually best Tom. There’s huge desire both sides to override their previous fight.
that makes waaaaay more sense than Gane
And at this point Gane is equally as much of a non draw as Blaydes. They had high hopes for him with his flashy striking and insane movement but dude is boring as fuck in the lead up and useless vs anyone with a ground game
Also rejected an invite to work with khabibs team on his ground game so hard to win fans that way
Feed gane to pavlovich

@@mynutsonyourchin2806 why?😂
Every champion that gets injured either get stripped of the title or Relinquish the belt so the division is not held up EXCEPT JON!!
I dislike jj also but stipe n jj is a huge fight n this is precedent for that fight
@@fourvetperrie457 I like JJ too but why does it have to be for a belt…they could just fight????
@plymouthrdrell money talks my man..best ever vs best heavy weight ever..that's huge money fight
@@fourvetperrie457Stipe isn’t a draw in the slightest. Jon will sell against anyone especially if it’s against “the guy to finally beat jones”. Jon vs Aspinall probably sells a little bit more just because there’s actually a question over who wins that one
@@fourvetperrie457not a huge fight at all, it would have been 5 years ago but the sport has moved on. No one even cares about this fight. I wouldn't care if they both never fought again. And that's not cause I dislike them or anything, they're just old timers. The fight means nothing and has no significance
No point it even being in the UK, with it airing between 3am - 6am.
Tom vs. Poatan, book it
Nobody is interested
Poatan doesn't stand a chance.
Poatan getting fucked
But we already know the outcome
@@Aryan-qj2thsmoker 🚬
Dana is polishing Jon's rod so hard that an entire division of absolute fighting maestros is suffering for it.
Heavy weight sucks we're not missing out on anything lol
@@MrFlabbergasted123nah, not fr at all, plenty of them could beat Jon on any given night
Man heavyweights are entertaining and about the top 5-7 are maestros but besides that its a bunch of fat dudes hoppin around just throwing bombs😂
Dana white is incompetent. I'm missing out on watching jones get destroyed by Tom or pav and Dana hasn't signed Jack shhht to the hw roster in eons. Put the money up and sign some top talent in other feds.
@@dayday3688yeah the goat that’s never lost good luck thinking that 😂
Jon isn't the HW champion. Nganou won the title beating Stipe, then defended it against Gane. Then Nganou left UFC, and the organization "gave" the title to the fighter that lost the right to have it (Gane). The Jon beat the dude which didn't earn the title.
Meanwhile, in the side of the HW fighters, the two ones with the best pedigree at the moment fought for the title, and Aspinall won. If anyone want the title should fight the owner, Tom Aspinall. Everything else is smoke...
Jon fought and won the hw belt. How is that not deserving it? It's not jj's fault what happened in the process of leading up to winning the belt. SMH, think before you comment
@@bb8942 Jon won against the fighter (Gane) which lost the match for the belt. Nganu was the HW champion and after He leaved the UFC the two contenders with better pedigree were Paulovich and Aspinall, which foght for the real belt. Gane wes neither the champion nor the best HW, so beating Gane doesn't make Jon "the HW champion". Just makes him better than the fighter which lost the match for the belt...
Why can't Dana pay money to bring in some other hws from other feds? He brought in jiri but that was lhw. Dana is weak
Buran, perfectly said.
It's how UFC has always worked 😂
Khabib fought the ranked number 12 to get his belt.
Olivera beat chandler to get the belt for whatever reason.
Yan was ranked #4 whilst aldo was #9 for the title.
I liked the videos without the tiny edit jumps. Raw uncut Chael is what the people need
Agreed.
Down with the jump cuts
Agreed. The cuts are terrible.
No respect to the British fans by making the main card start at 3am local time
If aspinal and gane are the co main for Leon and Belal at least I can watch the co main and go to bed early that would be nice
Holding an event in the UK but starting the card at US time is not how you "show respect to England"
These thumbail graphics are much better and i approve
Poatan coming for him
Alex gets knocked out first round , Tom is way to big and Alex can’t grapple
😂
Sergei smokes peiera and tom smoked sergei.
@@FATCHQDE best mma math is hypothetical mma math
@@adambrown2949English fighters can't grapple either lmao one trick ponies
In 2008 HW Division we got like 100 interim title defenses
Tony ferguson vs Justin Gaetjhe (defending interim champ)
My dream card
Tom Aspinall vs Curtis Blaydes
Leon Edwards vs Belal Muhammad
Michael Venom Page vs Wonderboy
Arnold Allen vs Aljamain Sterling
Paddy Pimblett vs Bobby Green
Renan Barao defended his interim bantanweight belt. I think 2x but not sure
Let s do Pereira V Gane
Pereira V Aspinall
Pereira V Jones
done .
Guys please like this so Chael can see it and respond to my question!
Chael, you keep bringing up that you would like Max to defend the BMF belt, but according to Sean O’Malley and Tim Welch, you don’t get ppv points for defending the BMF belt. You always said there is a reason Masvidal never defended it and that it’s bc the UFF didn’t wanna have to pay him ppv points so it didn’t get defended. So my question is,
Do you agree or disagree that the BMF belt doesn’t get ppv points? And if not, does it change your opinion about whether or not Max should defend it!?
Don't forget Max just got $600k in bonuses. I'd say that was worth it.
Important point re: who would headline, Tom or Leon - Manchester is Tom's 'local' city; about 15 miles from his home-town of Atherton. For this reason, it would make most sense for Tom to top the bill, just as Rocky would if the event was in Birmingham. On neutral territory - London, Newcastle, Glasgow, wherever - it would be a tougher call.
Only a matter of time before Tom is Champ.
aspinall also lives near Manchester, while leon is a Birmingham Jamaican Londoner - so no local high priced ticket sales
Make Leon vs Shavkat the main event. Why does Belal get to sit out and walk into a title shot? He hasn’t fought since last May and I don’t recall any injury reports
Belal has only lost one fight in the last 15, one of the fights was a no contest against Leon, so they have unfinished business, he's on a streak and has beaten great fighters like stephen thompson, gilbert burns, and vicente luque to name just a few. He weighed in as a back up on the Leon/Colby fight. He's definitely next.
The fact this starts at 3am in the uk is a joke
Renan Barrao defended his intern title 2 times I believe. Because of the whole Dominick Cruz injuries issue. Other then Renan I don’t believe that here is another until Tom now
Interim champion is still champion. Interim champion is there to keep the division moving forward until the legitimate champion comes back.
The interim champ should be first in-line to fight the actual cahmpion in my opinion
@@nanoboi101 The UFC is a business disguised as a sport. If it doesn't make dollars it doesn't make sense. Stipe and Jones is the fight that makes the most money.
I want Bobby Green v Paddy and MVP v Ian Garry in Manchester
100% I'd love to see this too. Ian Garry thinks MVP is below him in skill. I think he's wrong.
Ferguson defended the interim belt against Gaethje
Seems like a lot of unprecedented things like; defending the interim belt, rule changes/rxclutions, venue/commission changes last minute, holding the undisputed belt indefinitely while injured etc, seems to happen whenever it’s benefitting Jon Jones. 😂
Oh boy here come the crazy Chael thumbnails. I’m here for it.
Tom runs through Blaydes and Jon ends up fighting him instead of Stipe so he can walk away with NO DOUBT. Not 1 single person can say Stipe would've beat Jon if they would've fought. The question by everyone is Jon not fighting after the Stipe fight. He is 100% the greatest ever and we may not ever see better in our lifetime if he didn't fight Stipe but beat Aspinal. Biggest fight ever if you as me.
Show his respect to England!?!? Have you checked the fight times uncle chael 😅 he screwed England 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Tom and gane might actually be one of the best hw matchups in awile
Mijain-lopez, jarrell-miller, martyn-ford, hafthor-bjornsson, brian-shaw, mitchell-hooper, etc. for open weight belt
I hate this fight. It should be Blaydes. The problem with Gane is that i think Tom beats Gane but he can not beat Gane as easy as Jones did because Gane did not turn up at all. So when Tom wins a closer fight than people expect, Jon can fight Stipe and ride off into the sunset with the jones fans saying "See Tom never stood a chance" whereas the Aspinall Jones matchup is what we all really want.
Arlovski defended interim belt vs Eilers
They made Nogueira defend his interim title as well
Why the fuck is the main card happening at 3 am though? That's bullshit and unfair for the UK UFC fans.
Id assume kinda unfair to the fighters as well in all honesty. I dont know how applicable it is to fighting but ive never done anything better at 5am than 4pm.
He's taking the Tony Ferguson route. Defending the paper belt rather than fighting the actual champ. Aspinal better win or this is setting him back a year plus.
💪😎🤙 See Fathead Run, Run🍮Fathead🍮Run *bawk🙈bawk* -Champ ⚔🕶 -CSO- 🇺🇸🏆🇲🇽 # WhatAPuts
Tom and Alex. That lets Alex keep active then can defend against Ankalaev later in the year.
This is the easiest Main and Co-main, Leon v “Dana plz” and Aspinall v Blaydes. And can we mention the fact that Leon literally fights 2 times a year
Hoping to go to my first live UFC event. How much do you think tickets will be?
180+
I hope MVP is on the card. Preferably against Ian Gary.
Ciryl has already fought 3 matches for the title. Three of his last five have been title matches, of which he looks to have taken a dive or phoned one in to allow Jon Jones to go around taunting Ngannou in to signing back for an ego fight. I'd rather see Ciryl get kicked back down and forced to wait in line again for 1) taking a dive. 2) getting 3 title shots al=ready 4) having not fought Curtis Blades yet.
Make Ciryl get in there with Curtis Blades and see if he phones it in like many blacks do with other blacks, or if he really takes it seriously and rips Curtis's head off.
Then he can be somewhere closer in line.
Bit of a weird comment 😢
Don't forget about Paddy Pimlet. He would definitely help sell the card and is due to fight id think. Pretty sure he's a guarantee for that card. Probably main feature?
Bobby Green wants to fight him, let's see it happen!!
Sucks that it's not on UK time
Are we going to get Garry v Covington on this card?
Chael, if both fighters were in fact on the card (Edwards and Aspinall) under the current conditions, who would you have as last fight of the night?
Tom would main event because heavyweight
I still don't understand why they don't strip Jon Jones. Eventually when he comes back to face Stipe - FOR 1 NIGHT ONLY - YOU BRING BACK THE SUPERFIGHT TITLE!
You run down memory lane of the old title. The old fights. Hell you can make replica titles to sell later on down the line.
And while Jon vs Stipe for the SuperFight Title goes down - Tom can DEFEND HIS WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT FN TITLE verses Curtis Blaydes - then MAYBE POHTAN - then anybody else other than Gane!
Main events starting at 6am 😂😂😂😂
Chael we need that Kade vs Mikey video 😯
Big Nog vs Mir 1st fight...
Big Nog defended interim Heavyweight title
And it’s at stupid o’clock in the UK
Leon vs belal sells negative tickets
But you gotta figure maybe 6 people will buy tickets to watch Gane fight for another title… Ganes family
Belal probably wins it
I mean there last fight wasn’t boring tbf, Leon nearly finished him inside 2
Tony vs Justin ! Tony was defending the Interim belt
The fact that chael never says nothing of value and is one of the biggest steroid cheats and yet is still loved is crazy
and an FTM!!!! FACTS look at the weird adams apple inplant.
Ring rust A IS real. The longer goes between fights, the greater the risk. Best to stay busy!
We want Colby fighting Leon and Tom fighting Jon
Who the fuck wants a Covington Edwards fight?
@@robotdog7146 it’s the most entertaining fight in the division. Or shavkat vs Leon would be dope. Leon and belal both boring ass fighters
@@rothefoe11 Did you even watch their last fight? It was a dull one sided affair where Covington looked old and slow.
@@rothefoe11 if that is what you call entertaining, then good luck finding happiness
Tom should make it a point to defend the Interim strap as many times as possible before Jones comes back
Belal winning the belt would be legendary
Ciryl Gane is a pretty bad match to for Tom so is Curtis . Curtis was lighting Tom face up before he injuried his knee. Tom doesn’t have wrestling but more bjj focus. You need wrestling 🤼 against Gane to beat him or else he’s beat you striking from outside like how he was piecing up Francis. I see Tom losing to both of them if they fought. However it’s heavy weight only lucky punch can end each other. 😂
Casual
Nothing says local colour and interest in the wider world from the UFC than the fight time being changed to 3am UK time to suit the US audience...
I’d like to see MVP fight on this card.
Tony was defending his Interim belt against Justin
Renan barao defending interim dillinshaw took it
Not another main card that starts at 3pm in the US……😢
Lol what do you mean it's way better
Agree!! Don’t give us enough time to drink all day!!
7pm
in Sweden the UFC cards starts at 4am. At least give me this 1 card to enjoy 😇
Freaking selfish yanks... what a surprise
Leon vs belal at 5 in the morning...
Who wants that
Andre awlowski defended the intrim heavyweight belt
Strip Jones. If he wants to be the best Heavyweight he needs to fight the #1 contender
If you want to play the what if? What if Pereira V Aspinall?
Did Ciryl Game defend the intern?
Why are they effing over blaydes
Doesn’t deserve it yet, that Almeida guy is assss he can’t finish anyone
@@mynutsonyourchin2806 gane finishing spivak is better ?
@@mynutsonyourchin2806 Gane doesnt deserve it either. Unfinished business between the two fighters is good reason for that fight to happen. Chito didnt deserve a title shot, but he got one because of a supposed lucky win years ago.
There is no debate who Leon’s next opponent is… the Legend Nick Diaz
Seeing how Leon couldn’t draw money with a green crayon, I hope Tom is on the card.
Leon vs MVP is a fight people would actually watch
I'd like to see MVP beat Ian Garry and Colby first
What’s the odds Jones releases another injury video a few weeks into the summer lol
Look at those arms! West coast gangster 🦾💪🤜🏿👊🏻🤛🏽
Renan Barao defended the Interim Belt twice until he used vampire alchemy to make it the real belt.
This is going to prove to be an unnecessary discussion. (To borrow a phrase from Uncle Chael), "I only present this to you guys only to say," that if, Jon Jones beats Stipe. Jon Jones, retains. Allowing, Tom the next fight against Jon and chance to be Undisputed Champ. If, Stipe, beats Jon Jones. Stipe, in all likelihood, will retire. In that scenario, it would make sense that Tom, squares off against Jon or whoever, is deemed his opponent. Ultimately, the only way Tom isn't next up is Stipe winning, deciding not to retire and deciding to not give Tom the next fight.
If I were Aspinall, I’d rather fight the least dangerous of the opponents. I’m guessing he prefers Blaydes.
Both are bad match up Tom. Plus Curtis already beat him. He was lited up before he fell and hurt his knee
I don’t have an educated assessment of Aspinall. I’ve only seen three of his fights.
Tom doesn't give a fuck, he just wants to fight. He beats both easily anyway.
@@cookingfat1 I agree he beats both.
I think it’s safe to say that Tom is the actual heavyweight champ while Jon is the interim
Undefeated GOAT of mma, i believe you meant Tom Aspinall will be defending the undisputed heavyweight title correct?
Renan Barao
About damn time it gets defended
Who’s Aspinal gonna fight??
Might be wrong but hasn’t Tony and colby defended their interim belts might be wrong on that
Didn't Tony defend it against Gaethje?
Surreal
Why is it on US time, don't bother bringing it here in that case
Tony Ferguson tried to defend his int lw belt against Justin tho
Ciryl Gane vs Alex pereira
Knockout chaos pt 2
So sick of interim titles and champs that never fight and hold up the divison
Barao defended the interim belt twice
Leon headlines all day
I just watched this so I can hear Xheal say Blal
Surreal Gane
