The energy between Dustin and Max was awesome. Two guys forever bonded by their moments in the octagon together
DC pissed me off lol
yes its about respect for each other and mma,not like the trash and hate that certain fighters spout,respect and being a good person will live on
Amen.
@@vincentkc48 he has CTE, those mood swings are starting to show.
@@vincentkc48 jones took his soul. He still has it in a jar.
Bruh it looks like Dustin is feeding all of Max's life force with both sitting next to each other. We have a chonkier Dustin and a out-in-sun-vampire Max. Two of my top 5 fav guys atm and hope max out does his old performances.
😂
Dustin Soyier max walks around huge too lmao what are you even trying to say
Seriously. Max don't look ok
@@SquintyEyedBoab Troll, go back to sliding into Colbys DMs🤢🤮
@@GhostOfBrickCity max looks like this at every weight cut
Its bizarre to see full size Dustin and weight cut Max next to one another, crazy what these fighters put their body through
This is exactly what my first thought went at - besides killer training and lifestyle... Incredible! This is why I am paying for the PPV from the bottom of my heart! Athletes like these deserve it all!
Pourier looks like a french door
Max is natural 155..but he knows he can't compete at 155.. Dustin totally beat him..but Dustin is a natural 170 fights at 155..

Except Charles and Khabib lol
Bro what the actual fuck haha
It's all so friendly I forgot that Dustin and Max fought twice with the 2nd being one of the greatest wars in the UFC.
Nothin but respect for each other after those wars.
Was the second fight that good? I was so stressed out rooting for Max that it kinda ruined it for me.
Max sounds great for being so sucked down in this, he sounds like stopping sparring has really helped him
Stopping hard sparring, he still flow spars and technical spars.
@@stormrevenant yaa. I hope his defence is great too. He needs to use his range more this fight
That and his wife is a pro surfer and cooks all his meals and gives him a healthier and lower walk around weight. So the cuts are less costly
Unfortunately he's already showing signs of CTE.
@@Thawhid he doesn't have an advantage in reach. He's like a T-Rex.
Former opponents, two future HOFs. Max and Dustin are awesome!
Both good dudes
Poirier ain’t a future hof imo.
@@FrankieH-79 It’s a good job your opinion doesn’t mean shit
@@Ron_Swanson The pinnacle of his career is an interim belt, you really think that’s HoF material? Really like him as a fighter and a person but come on.
@@jackbirkenhead5313 Nowhere does it say you have to be a former champ to be inducted into the HoF, looking at his resume is plenty for him to get inducted. Not sure how people arent understanding that
Best segment they’ve had on here in a long time ! Love the energy between max, Dustin & dc 😳🔥..3 of them should do a podcast together, would be a lit episode maybe on DC’s channel or something 🤯
💯💯💯
Louisiana is the 10th Island 🏝️ ⚜️🤣🤣
2:57 Are they seriously drinking Modelo on the job? i mean i know ufc is sponsored by them but wtf? LOL
i want a helwani dc and max, that would be insane
@@imdeexpert5828 Shannon Sharpe be drinking Hennessy on ESPN
From the prelims to the main event the whole card is stacked I hope it delivers
Facts
uriah hall is top 10 and fighting muniz, on a normal ppv card thats on the main card or atleast the featured prelim. on a fight night thats the co main. its on the early prelims. unreal
Might be one of the best cards ever. I could imagine that we get to see the best event of all time
This card is LIT from cowboy on the prelims to the 2 Title fights!!!!!!
Max and DC are pure gold!! They need to do a podcast, travel show or sitcom together.
Absolutely love seeing Max, DC and Dustin on one screen. Love these dudes energy. Even better that Dustin and Max had one of the best fights of all time together and are just homies now
lmfao Dustin “ We don’t turn the other cheek, we clap those cheeks”
I was like "Ayoooo" 🤣
There was no check
And Dustin Christian. One of the least Christian things you can say.
I really liked the Dustin x Max moments here! It'd be nice to hear more from them together, lot of respect there.
From foes to friends. Dustin and Max.
They were always cool
Yeah dude. volkanaski doesn’t get that treatment cuz he’s boring and he didn’t deserve that second win.
@@AlexM-mz7rx salty max fan, 2-0
@@niqowyd true, BUT, if you look when the results were read out Max looked disappointed/shocked Volk looked relieved.
That says a lot.
I'm a fan of Volk as well as Max, the two are just SO far ahead of the rest of them. Volk has just pipped Max to the post twice. I would have it 1-1 but the judges scored it how they did. I'm not disappointed.
But being a fan of both, it pisses me off when people act like Volk destroyed Max. That shows extreme bias.
@@niqowyd nope. Second fight was a robbery so no not 2-0
💀 Max at 145lbs

What is that suppose to mean??

@@isaacbmx7821 don't be smart with me boy
I fucking love Max Holloway. Been a huge fan of the SPORT for a long time and never really had a “fighter” i always rooted for. Over the last 4-5 years Maxie has become that for me. Much love brother.
Okay you've been a fan of the SPORT. You want a trophy or something?
Same he’s someone who’s been in my top 3 favourites ever since I started watching and always want him to win no Matter who he’s fighting
@@Smorgasvord”fan of the SPORT” in this context is used to emphasize that there is no particular fighter I felt real affinity for prior to Max.
The fact you didn’t pick up on that and the fact you wrote a comment to highlight this indicates one thing -> You are not smart, in-fact I would guess you are dumb. I say that as a matter of fact so take it that way. Water is wet, grass is green, and you are dumb. I’m not saying that to be mean. Assimilate that fact into your understanding of self and life will be easier at least for those around you.
Facts 💯🐐
I know Max is cutting weight at the moment, but damn, no wonder Dustin had so much more power than him when they fought, the size difference is massive.
Glad they have so much respect for each other, true warriors.
Dustin is twice as wide as Max 😂
Poirier walks around 195lbs ever since his FW days. He's a big lightweight. On their rematch Poirier literally has a 25lb advantage over Max in the fight day.
Yeah If you rewatch the fight max was piecing him up but Dustin was able to bully him against the fence the size difference really came into play
dude dustin looks massive as a lightweight lmao
Definitely. Dustin walks around close to 200 tho. Max is probably 175 naturally
You a true legend Max love from Australia mate 🇦🇺
Lol this is crazy poor alex everyone against him 😂
the ozzies fly Hawaii flags when Volko fights
Too bad he lost...I had a feeling that would happen 😪.
Dustin is a genius commentator, I need him on the mic every Pay-Per-View
He should do it full time!
Genius? Genius??
how low you gotta hang the latter to say this was genius :D
@@KarloCarl How does it feel to be a hater? like get a life. Or better yet tell Dustin to his face.
@@ValleyEscondido how does it feel to defend dustin? Ah wait you are his best friend!
I want Max to win but I have a great appreciation for Alexander. Two guys with good vibes.
It is,can't wait to say for max will be a Best boxer in ufc ever!!!!
@@muhammadwahyuhidayat21498 for cutting from 185 to 145 n beating midgets, while Colby is in same weight range n fights at 170?
@@muhammadwahyuhidayat21498 he isn't even a top 10 boxer tbh
@@BJ-Niggashaw who would you place above him? Just curious
@@HelpmeHelpYou-1992Max is a tall ass guy sure but he’s lanky as hell. He’s small even for LW let alone Welterweight. Colby is so much wider than Max. In fact even Volk is wider than Max. He’s just tall but he isn’t big
still amazes me how he dominate kattar but yet other opponents have such a hard time against kattar
Volk and Max are just much better than rest of the division
His pace, speed & cardio is too much for everyone apart from Volk. His ability to keep throwing punches non stop without ever looking tired is phenomenal and I’ve never seen a ufc fighter with that type of pace and output
@@thechronic2699 Dillashaw, Covington, and even prime lawler. There’s been multiple fighters.
@@markuskidd546 not to the extent of max. U think I dont know of them names? None of them do it to the level of max. Robbie was more power not velocity, Colby 😳😆 don’t get me wrong amazing output but that output is about as powerful as a fart never even dropped someone with that output or damage them for that Matter it’s more his wrestling output that impresses people not his pillow punches where of course u could throw so many when there not carrying any power. Dillashaw definitely good output but still not the same as max and the twat also used EPO to make his output better so how the fuck u going to throw a cheater in there who used something to get a advantage over others.
@@matthewalex90 If Kattar is one of the p4p most talented, what is Emmet?
I really hope to see Dustin as a commentator one day! True legend of the sport and one of the most insightful people on the mic
“We don’t turn the other cheek, we clap them cheeks DC” 💀💀💀😂😭
Shout out to the 💎, glad to see him shining!
Dope af, the best boxer in the UFC and Max Holloway.
Lmao love ya max
Damnnmn booooiii
next to Poirer
I aint seeing Petr Yan anywhere
@@serbianwarrior385 I don’t count roided out Russians
I like the Porier addition.
DC got so offended when Poirier said Max is more Louisiana than DC 🤣🤣🤣 5:23
Missed Max. And new vibes.
1:15 - haha. Dustin is officially Max Holloway's buddy
Max is so chill, even in the throes of a weight cut.
Chill? Scared
@@Aleco300 Why would Max be scared of? He has fought Volk twice and their last match couldve went either way
6:20 - Daniel is certainly looking for a strategy to defeat Max in the octagon when they'll face each other
Make it happen Dana!
Max fights are must see every time
Watching Max and Dustin next to each other you would never think they fought at the same weight class
Dustin was so huge
Max and Dustin are easily in my top 5 favorite fighters!
Let’s go Max !!!
And when Max and Porrier said that their kids will fight back, I was all smiles.
When these two fought for the second time for the interm belt it was a epic moment in fight history these two are my favorite fighters the diamond and blessed
After watching this, i'm so pumped for this fight dude, he is literally talking about finishing it in 3 rounds and Max doesn't talk stupid
Definitely! I think he’s going to come out like the 2nd volk fight but not stop with the pressure and not give volks striking any respect. He knows he’s the better striker and can finish him just hope he wins
Yup listen to 3:30 .. he mentions "we found something" and sounds super excited to exploit it.
nah you wish, volka is gonna win
LOL volk schooled him
Time for cte max to retire and become a cod twitch streamer
THAT VOLCANO WAS HIS FACE 😂
Let's go MAX!! Much love! 👊💪
I need more dustin/max banter in my life
I'm 100% behind Max, Come on Bro, take that belt..
I love DC and Max friendship so much🤣 DC is a likeable person he also has the funniest and most hilarious friendship with Khabib😁
Bruhh...Dustin looks huge, as big as DC. Goddamn. Weightcuts are so hard.
His energy is great! This is gonna be a banger
Its really nice to see Dustin
Write him a love letter
@@rylevi7405 u have a gay mindset
Looking at max and Dustin side by side makes me feel in disbelief they fought
Holloway looks exactly like Bert from Sesame Street. The shape of his head, his eyes, his nose and the haircut. LOL
MAX!!!! AND NEW!!!!! LEEZZZGOOOOO!!!!!
Well... 😆
@@Zeeeee19 better man won. Max still won the 1st 2 tho
A Volkcano erupted and max got destroyed
Max got his backside handed to him tonight. Dustin the Swamp Trash got into a fight tonight in the crowd.
Ask dustin poirer when 23 jump street is coming out. He was fire in the first 2 films
😂
Max got this!!!
Ok, Max, DC and Dustin need to do a UFC podcast or something, I could listen to these guys for hours.
How can you not like Max. Sitting next to a man he went to war with and you would never know it.
i dont
6:10 Daniel Cormier sounding like the MMA equivalent of Charles Barkley
Max Holloway such a Great Guy 💯
People need to put respect on Alex name. Big fan of max tho, but Alex is a whole different beast. It’s going to be a firework of a fight tho.
How is he different
Max had more title defenses and beat better fighters
If he beats volk then he is the goat at fw
@@tistakere5055 Fr bruh some people are just clueless 😂
Alex is just corny, he's a great guy but similar to Usman they drive fans away when they open their mouth
@@tistakere5055 you forgot Aldo huh ?
How is he a "whole different beast"?? I swear people just hear phrases they think sound cool and use them even if they don't make sense 🤣 they're neck and neck and Max arguably won that last fight, he's definitely not a whole different beast bro
I love Max, he is my favorite fighter
Poirer is really good as an analyst and at the desk he has that sort of natural positive charisma would like to see him get more opportunities like this
To be the best you gotta beat the best, and the best is blessed baby
Let's goooooo max
Welcome to the blessed train, choo choo!!!!!!!!!!! 👍
Слова Дастина Порье
The volcano did happen. The lava was gushing just above Max’s left eye.
My heart is rooting for max but my gut is telling me volk
May the best man win tomorrow
We need Max, Dustin, and DC to commentate an event!
Podcast would be nice they can relax and talk about anything they want while watching the fight lol
@@Sage-nc9uq Word!
Max, Dustin, and DC are what we all needed
Max was right Volcano ( Volkanovski ) erupted !
I'm kinda worried bc Tony in his last fight kept saying " come Saturday night, we will see Saturday night " without saying much and ended up KOed. Max is doing the same in this fight promo, YO I DO NOT WANT TO SEE MAX KOED!!!
Max Isn't a cocky asshole like Tony
Lol u called it
I love DC and Max’s banter
Would love to see Max and DC have their own show.
I am FIRED UP! Absolutely LOVE Max's energy!
Max is class🇵🇸🇲🇻🇲🇾
Sometimes I wonder if these types of shows are like tryout for commentary or analyst spot. A lot of time they let fighters come in and interview other fighters or just talk fighting to see how well they do. Next thing you know that fighter joins the media team. Dustin is a good looking guy and well spoken but he seems really shy. The weirdest tryout was letting Ferguson do this lol. He ended up beefing with Kevin Lee.
Ive told my boys “Jesus said to turn the other cheek. But he’s never told us who’s cheek to turn!!! You turn theirs or I turn yours! We fight back too!!!!”
Volk basically beat him up for 5 rounds. There was a “Volkano” alright.
Yooo that’s actually a fire nickname, underrated comment
the only volcano action was blood gushing from his face like lava 😂
wtf
@@CommandoMaster missed it?
The only volcano was the one coming out of Max's eyebrow
"My brother."
"Myyy brotha."
"Thank you brother."
Many do not know that Dustin has 2 wins over Max. A finish and a UD
Ppl dont give him his credit for the 2nd Max fight, even tho Max was a heavy favourite you got people saying “dustin was way bigger” and all this crap. Dustin made a lot of people lose money Ig lmao
DC being friends with Max is like...Voldemort being friends with Harry...
The only eruption was the blood gushing from his eyebrow after the fight
Cool seeing Max and Dustin chill with each other. That war in their rematch was absolutely fucking insane
This max guy clearly hates his face. Look at the way he treats it in fights.
“We don’t turn the other cheek … we clap the cheeks DC!!” Lmao Dustin’s clowning
Win or lose - Max needs to move up to 155
If he really grew into the 55 weight class he would be a force man
why? If he's able to do energetic interviews like this then obviously the weight cut isn't too hard on him... There's countless fighters that look/sound much worse than this after a weight cut lol
@Henzo8i8 it wouldnt take that long. Hes already big for 145, if he gains a solid 10 pounds that would take like 4 months
Why tho?
If he moves to 155 his brain is gonna go lmao Those guys hit a lot harder and Max is already a little rattled.
i like seein max and dc.. was more interested in interactions between dustin and max but i think dustins jus gotta get a lil more comfortable up there. a little more time in and hell flourish in that role too
Max is the real champion 🏆
Champion of cte
Max is so good for business
i am watching the fight right now man.. its round 4 and now i finally accept that volk is better than max
Nothing better than max roasting DC all the time🤣
He was right about one thing. A Volk(ano) did erupt, just all over his face.
For me this fight should be a main event. Battle for title of greatest feather weight of all time vs just a title fight. Probably ending of one of the biggest rivalarys. Don't get me wrong, Izzy and Jared are great but...
Max is bad with names and DC is bad with heat coming his way 😂
“We don’t turn the other cheek, we clapping cheeks!” 😂
My two favorite fighters and DC
I love max regardless he's a god damn legend man
Man… I’m gonna drop this right here with a broken heart because I’m a Volk fan… I believe he will catch a teep kick down the middle and go to sleep 💔 those were getting inside in the KZ fight and Max Holloway has caught on to it. Find me here when it happens. I really hope I’m wrong though
Just rewatched the TKZ fight your spot on I think that’s it only bit of success zombie was having vs Volk.
Gonna need to remember this post for later. You got me thinking about it.
you were wrong, that wasn't even close.
You were completely wrong. Guess you don't know what you're talking about.
@@yo_eddie2576 I'm glad I was wrong. He's my favourite fighter.
Hydrated DP is huge, almost as big as Khabib.
two class guys with dustin and max but kind of awkward to have them sitting next to eachother when dustin kind of has max's number lol
They seem straight about it.
yh dustin is the alpha and max fells beta with dustin next to him
You guys are reading into it too much. They respect each other as competitors. They both have a deep understanding of mma and I'm sure are aware fighting and winning isn't the sole meaning of life.
if anything Dustin looks up to Max more because Max actually won the belt
Here’s the problem though… the Laura and the dude next to her barely added anything to the conversation. It’s really better to have people who have been in there at this level talk about this because it’s clear the other two didn’t know what to say. No fault of their own
I am a Volk fan but I’m pulling for Max. Would be really glad to see him win the belt back.
Yeah so you definitely aren’t a volk fan in that case
@@rBlake im a volk fan too, but i want max to win this time so they can fight again 😂
Really? Makes no sense? I like both fighters. It’s pretty simple.
