16:59 Masvidal ko
Thank u
If I see Ben Askren, nothing makes me click faster. I love his interviews
Yup me too
You're only one of millions who think the same way about the great Ben Askren
Ben , thanks for all you do for young wrestlers.
I wish I could have gone back and wrestled like my father
Sounds Rapey
Bro’s a sellout... fixed a fight with Jake Paul whatta clown.
If he will be my coach. I will look for somebody else. I can not imagine myself getting spark like that. (Jorge masvidal fight) coz i will always think about that fight. As they always say, you are only good as your teacher. I prefer a better mentor🤣🤣🤣
Ben ass cream?
I always get inspired by the way Askren carries himself. Great person, true champion
Askren's approach to his loss had a profound impact on me when I first started getting into MMA. Not attaching your ego to the outcome is such a common sense approach that I love so much.
You mean the thing that 99% of all losers have done since the dawn of time. Cool story....
@@nukacola3795 Boring response.
Masvidal vs askren fight is the Greatest k.o i have ever seen in mma🤣🤣🤣
Yeh he even said he doesn’t deserve a rematch because he lost I 5 seconds. Very humble guy considering ufc set him up to fail to prove their descision not to sign him in his prime right. Lawler was ufc champ when he was one champ and he choked lawler out so he probably would of been champion if they did.
@@marktabar4013 34:00 it was because JOE SILVA did not want Askren. At the same time he was threatening to cut Khabib because his style was “too boring”
These two need a show! Truly god bless both of em🎉🦾🫘
Ben is one of maybe 10 mma fighters that I can't click fast enough to watch when I see a new vid on my feed. He's the MMA of interviewees, genuine, knowledgeable, personable and funny, great talkdown defence . Got it all. 👍
Just like how fast askren got k.o.ed by masvidal🤣🤣🤣
@@boyinasal8156 askren was over it immediately. Sounds like you haven't gotten over it. Must have to brush your teeth a lot considering Masvidals nuts are always in your mouth
I'm in my second cancer fight, and I am taking inspiration from Ben.
God bless
Good luck man
You got this 💪
Ben, I enjoyed your run a lot, super entertaining on the mic and gave us some great fights.
Thanks, pal.
@@johnboylan3832 Thanks bud.
His greatest fight was with masvidal...it is the greatest k.o of all time in mma🤣🤣🤣
Ben is one of my favorite athletes. Not because of his record or achievements but because of interviews like this. He's real. He's a genuine and grounded dude. I'll be getting the book Ben!
Run it back!!! Askren would definitely run through masvidal
I love it when Ariel catches the guy he's interviewing not paying attention 6:00. "What's going on? What are you doing?" Same thing with Paulo after his fight
Great interview and Ben being a coach for younger athletes is very admirable. Thanks to you both.
Great interview, Ben is an interesting guy. I’ll definitely give the book a read.
We love you Benjamin
Askren vs Masvidal 2 would be fun, and he should try to get the rematch...
We don’t need to see that. Ben is doing well.
I don’t think Ben should fight at all anymore..
Why? He has one good hip? Was already going downhill health wise when he came to ufc
you askren fans are truly delusional thinking he can still compete
I know you think Ben has a chance just cause "wrestler" but he's a hip surgery + several years outside of his prime + been knocked out twice brutally once by a UA-camr who trained boxing for 2 years. Why would you want Askren to get slaughtered?
Ben is a class act!
no fighter ever handled losses as well as this guy
Word lookin forward to getting his book
I have been a fan since the trade. Ben is one of those all around great guys that sets and example for all on how to live life the way it should be lived and not stress about the small stuff! Love him on podcast too
I agree. Could not have said it better. Guy was made for coaching.
It’s cool to see Ben being himself and honest not just the crap talker promoting his fights. Only the Heelwani could bring that out in people. Fighters especially. Much love 🤘🏻
You're slow, don't pay attention, or new
Love you two together. Add DC and that would be a super funny show as well as incredible real knowledge. Love you funky!
Great interview!
Wish we got to see prime Askren in UFC
Let’s be honest. The rematch…Askren destroys Jorge.
@@joef3423 if they did one more fight it could be a big draw
Love this. Ben has gotta be one of my favorite mma personalities. It seems like he put it on without deviating from himself too much.
Ben. You. Are. Awesome. Thankyou for being a strong image in our youths perception, you survived a knee to the face on live tv going viral then losing to Jake Paul, and you are still alive let alone showing your face on the internet with class, you are an inspiration to anyone who's ever had a loss, you are a butterfly effect that will save lives and make us as a people tougher. Thankyou :)
Ben’s great! And true fight fans appreciate how tremendous a competitor he is and how dominant he was.
I enjoy Ariel’s interviews but parts of this made me laugh. The way Ariel was bringing up “doesn’t it bother you that…” over and over again reminded me of an episode of Seinfeld where George kept asking this old man he was having lunch with if he thinks about death.. and how the average lifespan is 72 😂
Ariel says all the time that he doesn’t like to ask fighters to come on his show after a ko loss and yet he asks every fighter to come on his show after a ko loss and then has to explain to them and everyone else that he doesn’t like to ask people to come on his show after a ko loss lol
Gotta Admit Ben Akren probably the best most interesting interview in the MMA community. The guy is genuine and comes of 100% authentic.
17:00 for start of Masvidal KO
You dropped this 👑
Ben is the man. Love his attitude!
The Man with the best K.O. highlight of all time.
@@kryptoknight. you’re not wrong.
Love funky ben !
15:01 this man is a time traveler from the year 22,009
Really want a Helwani/Askren/DC/Bisping roundtable
Add Chael in there too
Adding Colby Covington would be Legendary..
id like to meet askren. he cracks me Up
His advice is legit. Don't be afraid of failure, go try to talk to a bunch of different girls, don't invest too much of your emotion into any of it, just talk to some, you can tell if one likes you by how interested they are in talking to you. However if you never talk to anyone because you are too scared, you will never even find any of these ones that will like you. Heck I was worse than Askren when he was a teen, I literally was so low in self belief I had girls literally coming up to me trying to talk to me and I still convinced myself that no one liked me, because when I was young I inherited my mother's weird victim complex, like a martyr complex thing, it wasn't until I left home that I became more normal and came to my senses. Yeah, a lot of people I think have a bad mentality because of bad influence, but you need to stop being influenced and reset your brain kind of, then just go and try to talk to people in the world, you will find a lot of decent people who are compatible with you, whether it be friends or romance etc.
Here's some advice for free: use paragraphs if you want anyone to read your sentences.
29:00 Jorge is not ungrateful, he simply doesn't understand why Ben provoked him relentlessly to get and hype up the fight... Very different IQ lvls. Of course it backfired on Ben due to how the fight went down but Ben basically gave Jorge a chance to catch lightning in a bottle and he did.
Dude talked for 40 minutes but leave it to Helwani to come up with the most clickbait title
win or learn...well done Ben
We love you Bernhard
Ben's cool man. He got alot of hate yada yadda.....and prob rightfully so. But dudes a beast. Always has been.
Thank you for bringing up the revisionist history Ariel.
Funky is a top 5 all time non UFC fighter and people forget that.
Your voice is amazing.
The kids who get him as a coach got the best.
No one ever took a loss like that better than Askren
Great interview. Ben was the most exciting ground fighter I have seen till this day. The way he moved was so weird and dominant. He never stalled or fkd around. I was always captivated by his fights. Casuals believed he was boring because of the comment section. Instead of actually seeing his fights. I'd like the haters to actually tell me which fight did he stall in or was boring?
Lol.
Ain't most of his decisions him stalling?
You serious? He was pretty zzzzz to watch
@@mateohodge6998 he never stalled. Not even once. Constant movement, pressure and strikes. He got better at ground n pound as time went on. Then his hip ruined his abilities.
@@EltonJ1981 yeah.. Him totally dominating people in a way we never seen before was so zzzz. You'd have to watch it with you own eyes instead of listening to people in the comment sections.
the Funky Nose - we need a show w these two haha wkly
Ben has a very Henry Rollins outlook on people.... Rollins said something like "don't put too much stock/faith into people cause they'll let you down..'
The only guy that's been to Mars twice in 3 years 😂
Ahahahah Heelwani shut him down on the business typin’ hahah. Ariel is the man . That’s proves it !
Ben you’re forgetting khazmat has been bouncing around weight classes on top of being out sick for a year that’s why he hasn’t had a title shot yet
This interview is funny as hell lol
Gotta love Rictus Mortis Ben
rigor mortis? lol
I still love and respect the funky one
ben askren aged 10 years since masvidal
Ben: “Im looking at Jorge. I’m getting ready to fight and yeah…boom…(I got ko’d)
Ariel: “Yeah. Amazing.”
🤦🏽♂️
Damn Ben Askren looks like he aged a lot in such a short period
What jake paul does to a mfer
I'm not only one seeing it lol thank goodness
He finally remembered. Crazy.
One of the greatest MMA fighters of all time. Excellent, excellent wrestling. Phenomenal wrestler. Nobody can take that away from Ben. I wish I even had his career record.
great wrestler yes, one of the greatest mma fighters, no
That's a stretch
The only thing great about his career was the masvidal fight...it will surely go down as the Greatest k.o in mma history🤣🤣🤣
Ben is the most entertaining nerd out there. He wasted his career a bit as he could have been a big star in the UFC if he came in after GSP retired.
I like Ben🏴
Epic wrestling is how it done
Ben gets me amped to be my best me.
40:19 the mojahed laugh
Ben Askren is the #1 welterweight ever. Wish they`d let him rematch Jorge...
The Jake ko makes the Jorge rematch in the ufc impossible
#1 ever is absurd
Lol...the only thing that is no. 1 about askren is that masvidal fight. It will go down as the no.1 best k.o in mma history🤣the greatest k.o of all time in mma🤣🤣🤣
@@ExtendedSack Demetrious Johnson and ben Askren are supposedly the two best ever as of the last couple weeks and also Dana is evil and the ufc is plotting against every ufc fighter Everything is a conspiracy
Usman didnt demand anything, he just said He is open to fight in England. Pointless take on that, Helwani.
whoah
10-7 aerial on the Afro 🙏🏽 lol
Years after the KO I still wonder, what would Jorge be without that flying knee to Askrens dome?
Ben and I have the same birthday.
He still hasn't gotten me a gift yet, though
Ben been sparring, got a couple of black eyes, nose slightly swollen and prepping for masvidal 2
I'm not a wrestling fan but I'm a Ben Askern fan
Jeez man, its been years. You can stop with the masvidal KO in the video title.
ASKREN VS MASVIDAL 2. BOOK IT!
I really like retired Ben Askren. He is a smart and pragmatic dude.
Ben, your follow up book should be called Funny You Should Askren. And listen, that’s a freebie from me to you. But, if the book sells well… 😉
He looks and sounds like Marc Cubans brother
Even the ghost writer of Bens book doesn’t want to be associated with Ben
Lmao, so legit
I would read Askren's book if I read books in the first place
He finally remembered his first thought?
The only thing i don't like about Dana... He hold grudge on many people.... C'mon Dana. You should be the man of the people. You gonna live longer. Apologize to Ariel and giv him a spot in the UFC. He's done alot for ufc too. Those old interviews. Nothing like that again
Ben Askren couldn't do a pull up his first year of college or climb the rope...his record as a redshirt was average, maybe 14-10...He then created his own style do make up for his lack of strength/explosiveness....4x NCAA finalist...
Guy is smart & knows how to win. Period.
No hero timestamped when the clickbait title is :(
34:00 it was because JOE SILVA did not want Askren. At the same time he was threatening to cut Khabib because his style was “too boring”
I put $200 on a Jake Paul first round knock out back when they boxed. No better feeling than seeing him hit the canvas! $$
Remember when Askren would get vids to near 600-800k? Now dude barely scratches 70k kinda sad
Ben just said he’s a good lookin dude,lmaooooo my son looks like crimson chin with a Afro ya zelema BAH
just came to say BOOM , roasted hehe
Ben would thrash Jorge if he got a second chance, thug Jorge was just lucky same as Aldo & mgregor
I wish Ben was my dad
Man makes a whole living tslking about getting koed by masvidal
35:00 NO it was because JOE SILVA did not want Askren. At the same time he was threatening to cut Khabib because his style was “too boring”
That guy was never a fighter, he was a wrestler who got his ass annihilated by a journeyman
I think you are
great title
Foul headline
Boom!!!! Roasted!!!
🥇
Jake Paul’s son woke up
