Somebody give this man an Oscar for MMA documentaries ❤
One day...one day...
They are THE BEST
@@PatrickGavia I loved your videos but the filter ruins it I miss when you were more serious and didn't have them your older videos are perfection
On gwad!!
@@malfunction7076 the reason he does that, is due to copyright issues, if he shows all those images with full quality, then the video is probably getting flagged
"Some people aren't meant to fit in, some people are meant to stand out."
Such a powerful quote.
It’s crazy cuz I still see him as someone who’s trying so hard to be the cool guy.
@@AR-ey6gn some things never die. He's traumatized as a kid being cast out so subconsciously he wanted to fit in too as an adult.
@@elyas4637 exactly. It felt like he was getting bullied all over again, this is why it was even sadder when he lost. He definitely sees the internet comment mocking his comebacks, and his style, etc. I hope he recovers
You guys need to have this kind of worries on your selfs lol izzy is already world champion millionaire successful af honestly loses don’t really matter who cares lol
@@AR-ey6gn He's definitely not trying to be the cool guy lol otherwise he wouldn't talk about anime and nerdy stuff so much. The cool guy is not an anime nerd. But he loves his style and puts himself out there, and he knows that people who like that kind of stuff will flock to him, and those who don't...well fuck them
Got me teary eyed when Silva spoke those words to Izzy. At loss of words to appreciate your work Sir Patrick Gavia, take a bow.
rat bastard got me too
Gave me goosebumps
That's one of my favorite fights ever fought.
Knowing that Izzy came back and regained his belt, the end of this video was brilliant!
It’s like he saw the future
One of the greatest knockouts in UFC history and celebrations
Then lost it again 😣
This aged like milk 😂
lol
I loved this and would also love to see a documentary focused on Alex Pereira. People just view him as Israel's rival who just wants to fight him when he has worked his way up from being a young alcoholic and finding kickboxing then transitioning to MMA.
yeah for real I think people just write him off because he's scary and doesn't speak English
I would love to see that as well however due to the way this documentary ended I have a feeling Patrick is a big Izzy fan
Can tell he’s a izzy fanboy and wanted him to win the fight lmao, super biased towards him in this video making it mainly about izzy even though he lost and alex was the winner.
He probably thought izzy was gonna win and pre recorded the video but now that alex won he just decided to post it anyway and barely include alex at the end of the video
Wouldn't be surprised that the reason why this video is around 90% Izzy is because the creator of the video thought Izzy was going to win. 🤣🤣😜
@@Vebol785 cry
That part where Silva was speaking to him and passing him the baton. Goosebumps!
Could you imagine your idol, the person you looked up to and aspired to be like for your whole career, told you that.
That's gotta be life changing. Just imagine throughout history how few people have had that happen to them.
Shame Silva was waay past his prime. Would love to see prime Silva vs Izzy
Tears in my eyes mate... tears in my frikkin eyes.🥺
@@H4is3nberg izzy would get mopped period saw times in this fight when he was froze a younger Silva game over
@@sluggak1363 agreed
Most clever UFC fighter. How did you know Stylebender would win ? He’s back. What a cerebral fighter
And the same damn thing i am thinking
He didn’t know he was going to win. He edited the thumbnail, but the original video was still older than the actual 4th fight.
Izzy is the corniest ufc fighter. Incredibly emotional and immature.
@@d_rod3 How exactly is he immature?
@@d_rod3
He is corny
But it won't take his greatness
That shit was magical man. The Silva part and especially the ending gave me chills. It was like the villain won, almost like Alex is inevitable
His voice is completely Fine people can sometimes be total DICKs
Would be nice for you to do one on Alex. The hand of stone had to go through so much shit to be in a position to hunt the style bender. It's remarkably what Alex endured in his path
Absolutely. But i guess thats not a profitable video to make
I'm sure Alex will get his fair share of fan documentaries, perhaps from Patrick himself, as he distinguishes himself more and his MMA career keeps progressing. Izzy was a great champion for many years and fully deserves the focus of this video
Like what? He didn’t have to escape Africa…. If it doesn’t top that I’m not interested…. Plus Israel is going to have him for lunch next time
@@ImSoSilvy I mean, Izzy also didn't have to escape Africa. He left, by plane, because he was rich with servants. There probably isn't a more underwhelming African story than Izzy's.
I agree not every story is going to be as harsh and inspiring as Ngannou's, but escaping Brazilian poverty with no education, with just sheer talent and hard work is still a remarkable feat on its own.
@@marinmarinhola that’s my point! We have American stories on my channel though lol
never seen anyone do documentaries as good as this guy, wow!
Oh yea he’s super talented, next level genius
YOU CALLED IT! THE STORY HAD NOT ENDED YET!
Bro saw the future
Here after UFC-287 🤯
This is the epitome of fight documentaries! Keep up the great work Patrick, your documentaries are genuinely top class!
Just getting started my friend
@@PatrickGavia 😍😍😍😍 I can't wait for more!!
@@PatrickGavia you have to start somewhere atleast.
@@PatrickGavia < Mr Rogers of MMA
@@PatrickGavia This was absolutely amazing!!! Good job bro.
But we all know whats gonna happen in the future... The enemy, the villian, The scariest man on the planet called "Alex Poatan" Gonna smash him again.
That story don't have a happy ending for Izzy
Is this really a story about Izzy and Alex's rivalry? Felt like this documentary solely focuses on Izzy. Alex had such an interesting path to the title (indigenous tribe, addiction, #1 striker in the world). He truly is Izzy's boogeyman, the man changed sports to beat Izzy for a 3rd time. There's so many great anime references on character rivalries, epic battles, I feel like all of these things could have greatly improved the doc and painted this rivalry in an epic way.
The thing is, Patrick really, really, REALLY thought Izzy was gonna win, so the doc has a very strong "redemption" vibe. I guess he had to shoot the last scenes in a hurry after Poatan showed that nukes for hands matter more than scorecards.
Agreed. Once again Poatan not getting his due. He came in and did what nobody else in the UFC could do......for a 3rd time.
@@ateondeder5725 This, you're right, the video has the vibe that Adesanya will get his redemptio and will win, that's why the salty end with the last page, he wants Adesanya to win, that will not happen.
@@milovarquiel only reason why people Wanna see a rematch is because of salty dizzy izzy fans not seeing their boi hit the deck since he was saved by the referee 😂
@@Sir_AYL_ facts
I love that this documentary is more about Izzy the person, not the fighter.
His mindset, his journey, his trauma, his motivation, his escape, and his passions.
Brilliantly made documentary 🏆🎉
Patrick are u launching a new Izzy documentary..he got his belt back. Lets go champ
The greatest human to do documentaries on Mixed Martial arts, pure class content ❤
Jesus those moments after he fought Silva still make me cry.
Absolutely beautiful.
10/10 video
@hardened soles you're cheesy.
@@thediaz07 not really.
@@AkWar9 ...
@hardened soles Found the edge lord.
Watching this after Izzy sparking Alex out makes me so hyped for the next episode. What a fighter!
Being real I’m just getting into UFC/MMA. Absolutely love and respect the hell out of the sport. I must say sir you making this content is amazing to watch and helps a newcomer like myself understand the sports history in such an entertaining way. Been watching and liking content nonstop!! I applaud you
Izzys life is such an anime that he even loses the belt in the most anime way possible
He ain't the main character 💀
@@iamthehopefulromantic276 well, he’s taken main character losses against Alex lmao 😂 I think he is anime at that point
@@iamthehopefulromantic276 He's the main character in his story or movie.
@hardened soles Take the tinfoil hat off. Do you really think he'd fake an interest in anime as a marketing scheme? Nah, that's one of the dumbest things I've heard.
Besides you only need to hear him talk about it once to realize it's genuine.
I mean lots of anime niggas get beat tf up before they become the best
I feel so bad for Izzy. To lose to the same guy 3 straight times and lose the belt in the process must be absolutely heartbreaking. How do you come from that?
How do you come back from that? Uhm Izzy hadn't lost to Alex in years and was dominating in the best fighting organization in the world...then Izzy fights Alex again, almost has him out in the first, dominates the fight and loses with a minute or two to go just bc Izzy backed up to the cage and gave AP the opening Alex needed to win.
He will win next time
@@thediaz07 there's more to it. Alex gave Izzy a taste of his own medicine and destroyed his legs (probably the only one with the dimensions necessary to do it at middle weight), that's why he couldn't defend against Alex in the fifth, his body was too worked up. Izzy made some mistakes, but a lot of what lead to the TKO was planned by Alex
@@marinmarinhola yeah Im not hating on Alex but idt he's that methodical...Izzy got hurt w that check leg kick in the 4th I think and that really messed him up...Izzy said it was in the first but the leg check in the 4th really messed him up ..either way Izzy was more methodical and controlled the fight for 22 minutes.
It's because of those losses that he will win.
I still don't understand why people don't subscribe this channel. This deserves millions subs.
Came back after Izzys win. The story continues. Looking forward the next series
Hey Patrick all the support for your work! You are the best at what you do, hopefully we can work on something together at some point. Lots of good vibes to you and your family ⚡️
Patrick this is an amazing video! Can you do a part 2 that focuses on Alex Pereira and his story? He seems to have an amazing story from what I’ve learned so far.
Pereira is a freak of nature. He started kickboxing only when he was 21, at 27 he became Brazilian kickboxing champion even having serious alcohol problems. His history is so inspirational as Izzy's is.
His story is amazing as well and makes his own rivalry with Izzy even more like something out of a movie. I wish people knew a lot more about Alex
Yeah you can tell he’s a izzy fanboy and wanted him to win the fight lmao, super biased towards him in this video making it mainly about izzy even though he lost and alex was the winner.
He probably thought izzy was gonna win and pre recorded the video but now that alex won he just decided to post it anyway and barely include alex at the end of the video
Time to write that last page 💪
This video was posted 5 months ago or so. Im rewatching now after UFC 287, and it has an updated thumbnail from Saturdays fight😂 Had me tripping for a second. I was like “how the hell was this photo taken 5 months ago” 😂
Really good quality in your content man. The production is awesome, but as a fan of Poatan as well I would like to see his side of history too. The fact he was an alcoholic, came from poverty, is descendent from the Brazilian Indians and has worked as bricklayer could be interesting for your story. Again, amazing film my friend.
Yeah I feel like part of the reason he is so stoic and shows almost no emotions even in victories has to do from what he has gone through in childhood, dropping out of school at 12, working as mechanic with adults who made you alcoholic just like them must've been traumatic, his story isnt much different tgan ngannous, like Ngannou said he never had a childhood, heartbreaking

Amazing work Patrick. Just genius.
Amazing but damn bro did Izzy losing hurt this production? The way this documentary went it looks like it was for Izzy's redemption
Please don't
I always think if silva was a singer he'd sound like Michael Jackson
Sorry Movies over The Jagwar diety devoured Zion again.
Felt goosebumps after you said this is not the end knowing well what just transpired 🥶🏹🏹🏹
It certainly was not over
Your work is better than the content the UFC puts out on fighters and I think it's because you are able to capture the essence of what it means to be a martial artist and what motivates these individuals to achieve greatness. Fantastic work as always!
Your comparing orange to apple, ufc are highlighting what's happen today and tommorow and only from ufc, and its all about the news, and these most of clip should be copyrighted & ilegal why would ufc making documentaries from others organization, they would got copyright infringement, you people had no idea
@@archie7288 That expression always makes me laugh. They are both fruit my dude, of course you can compare them. The UFC is selling story lines and a fighter's past is a part of that. If they can't tell the story better than this channel then they aren't doing a good job. Who cares whatever limitations are in the way.
Dude no joke. Your 18min video literally made me cry, laugh, and cheer all within that short span.
Thanks for fulfilling my wish! This was the best gift I could receive before I get sent into Combat (Singapore uses conscription and I'm done with recruit training. So it looks like sadly Kickboxing will just have to hold)
Fuck it, you are the first UA-camr that I've supported on Patreon. Sorry I can only be a Fan, Singapore is expensive and entitled country and I've got shit to pay for. Love you bro :)
Cry laugh and cheer? Somethings wrong with you 😂
Just saw this - hope everything went well David!
@shervinnasrin maybe something is wrong with you... alas you'd never assume that us the case though
Patrick , you definitely will realise in few years time how many lives you have changed with these documentaries including my self and keep going my man you deserve better recognition. You are the man thanks for everything.
Finally you're back! It's crazy how Izzy lost to one man in two different sports. I never seen it before in combat sports
He’s got his number
@@jordanmyers7266 Yup. All his numbers, lol
Only one is Joanna and Valentina
Joanna and Valentina
@@jacobfeliciano9005 Oh that's true
One of the best storytellers on youtube. You and Anatomy Of a Fighter are directly inspiring the next generation of athlete documentarians.
YOU CHANGED THE THUMBNAIL!
Need an updated version asap 😭
Love your contents man! Keep it up
content*
You have a way of capturing these fighters true drives and ambitions in a way i find nowhere else in the fight world. That clip with Silva passing the torch gave me some serious goosebumps. Thank you for yet another masterpiece
"People like me, we aren't meant to fit in" This hit hard.
Bro when is Part 2!!!!?? CANT WAIT!
This was outstanding, Patrick! Both informative and creatively laid out
Who's here after the stylebender won against Pereira now?
Rewatching your amazing work after his rematch
I'm brazilian and i cheer for Pereira, but that's a masterfull documentary man, and great editing; I hope their next fight is as great or even more than this one was!
Mate I have a hard time grasping how you manage to pull this off. Such a flawless delivery! Your videos is starting to feel like magic, it's clear you're a wizard! It's hard to not get humbled.
I have to be honest, this got me teary eyed. One of the most powerful and beautiful fighting documentaries I've ever seen. Thank you!
Patrick is the gold standard in MMA documentaries. Sad to see you are demonotized. Keep up the work man I'm sure you'll get bigger and better with every video and more people will come over to the Patreon🔥
Our boy has a talent most def.
Too bad UFC likes them copyrights.
How / Why ?
Bro I'm so glad I found your channel. NEVER EVER STOP DOING DOCUMENTARIES LIKE THIS!!!!
@@davidgmc5926 already saw it bro. quality content
I cant describe how grateful i am to find your channel.Well written and structured documentaries.Keep it up!
Partrick you’re the only UA-camr I know who’s every video is absolute GOLD! The way you document the sport encapsulates everything that’s beautiful about it. Love your work!!
Here after the fight. WHERES PART 2 !!!!
Love this. Your hard work isn’t going unnoticed
This was VERY well done. The clips were timed and mixed perfectly. Kudos Mr.Gavia
Found this channel today and just binged most of your library. Great stuff!! Edited and produced so well! Very entertaining thank you
Mystic Pat, he predicts these things.
deez tings
Been watching a few of these periodically now and I have to say that the scripting, editing, post production, dramatisation etc. is all absolutely superb. The ending in this one in particular was excellent.
Dude I’ve been an MMA fan for 20 years and I’ve never seen coverage like this. Insanely original dude…very impressed 👏
And you were right sir… this story just keeps getting better and better… can’t wait for the update ❤
I've seen many mma contents, but this is on a whole nother level. Even better than UFC promo videos. Great job👍
It’s gotten to the point that I’m looking forward to these documentaries almost as much as the fights themselves
Bro you've deepened my love for mma thank you
Please write a whole new chapter on this king
Wow this is one of the best videos I have ever seen, amazing video man!!
I wait for these documentaries with as much anticipation as the ufc fights. MMA community is blessed to have you!
WoW, Patrick that was AMAZING!!! You just inspired me to take control of my destiny. Im 66 yrs young and still want to create my dreams. I love getting to learn things about Izzy's story that I didn't know. I love Alex's story too. And their story together is one of the most dramatic in the history of combat sports. You did their story justice. Thank you.🙏🐉🎏🌅
This is the only channel that has made me subscribe instantly. These films the way they are narrated , the music choice, th3 video is amazing
This man is genius, what a sweet story.
Izzy story will continue to motivate me and the others out there facing trials.
That was insanely good.... great... phenomenal. I got emotional during the Izzy and Anderson part. Thank you for that
I literally got chills watching this documentary it’s so outlandishly good ❤
I get so excited when you upload a video; i know it's going to be another banger!
ong your video's are the only ones i can watch patiently without getting bored. I knew things about most UFC fighters and their lifes and now since i have discovered your channel since the Adesanya Documentary i know much more about them and the i am glad to have discovered more about the fighters through you. It looks like there goes much work and also i can sense strong passion by the way your video's are made. Whoever is working on the video's please take them out on a dinner and give em the props they deserve.
I am literally binging over here😄
I can't precisely express the feelings of determination your documents consistently draw out of me. More motivational than most motivational speakers. Never stop!
Can't WAIT to see the sequel to this one!!!
This is really well done man damn! Also gained more respect for Izzy after seeing this. I heard him talk about a few of the things before but this really gives a great image of where he came from.
BROTHER THIS IS A MASTERPIECE, ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS I'VE EVER WATCH IN UA-cam! This should be subtitle to every single language
wow! I cannot believe I havent seen this channel before. Amazing stuff - I look forward to binging on the channel
I've watched a few of your films and I have to say you're one of the best man. Really impressive. Your work is compelling to me. I can't look away and I'm always left wanting more. You and MixedMollyWhoppery are my two favorite MMA channels. I just wish you could produce more content faster but I also understand you can't rush a good thing either. I look forward to your next piece. Keep up the excellence dude.
DAMN THATS DOPE! Appreciate the hard work, i have watched all your videos since day 1 well played on the last part! You sure put a lot of effort and love into making these videos keep it up!
Thanks for the constant support Chrys!
You keep killing it with some of the best ufc videos on UA-cam. I get excited when I see a new video notification. Keep it up!
These videos are sick! Love this content. Amazing job. Keep them coming.
And izzy just won his belt back
damn this was so well put together major props for that, izzy still is a legend imo for what he achieved and pereira is an absolute monster, cant wait to see more of them fighting
I love how much work you put on your docs, keep up all the hard work and dedication
Incredible video as always Patrick. Love that you showed clips of Moonlight since its an extremely underrated movie that i think more people should see.
Guys do you realize that this is just a fraction of one man's life summarized beautifully. The entire content are things we are familiar with but somehow looks new. Plus the character-Izzy is still just hitting his prime. He's an active living legend. 💯👌
Even the UFC official editors don't come close to your quality
Can't beat creativity, no matter the budget
Creativity's the greatest weapon in any situation
Very good doc. I didn't know that Anderson was self-conscious about his voice. And it's crazy that even with success Izzy couldn't escape the torment of past bullies. Your childhood is something you can never get back.
Izzy didn't learn from his past as a bullied child . Once he detained the power, he became the bullie.
You make the best MMA documentary’s by far! You keep the plot interesting by engaging with your fellow martial arts fans. Keep it up man I really enjoy your videos👍🏼
Great video Patrick, one of the best
We need tha updated asap!!!!!!!!!
He is back the last stylebender 🔥🔥
I just finished watching and brother you have out done yourself! The story telling, the editing…10 out of 10!!
Wow this was absolutely amazing and very well edited. Thank you for the amazing content 🔥🥇
Thanks for sharing this. As a "quiet Black nerd", I went through this. It wasn't until I learned to fight, that the physical bullying stopped (varsity wrestling 😁🤼♂️). Unfortunately, that's the ONLY way to deal with bullies. I wanted to go into MMA but, it was the early 90s era of "no weight classes". I would've been maimed or killed! Education and healthcare have been good careers for me. I'm so happy and proud of fighters like Izzy. I subscribed!🙂👍🏾👋🏽👨🏽⚕️
Is no one going to call Patrick out for making this documentary extremely biased, for god sake Alex Pereira is the middleweight champion and he went against all odds to get the belt and this video is fully focus on Israel! Give the winner some credit please!
as a massive Izzy fan i watched this like 5 times since published. Its soooo good and it aged well :D
are you the new king of youtube mma? sick content dude. the ufc should hire you to make documentaries. this type of high energy all encompassing content is whats severely missing from the ufc
When your videos first popped up in my recommended section, I overlooked them and I apologize. These are some of the best videos I’ve ever seen (not just for MMA). I really played myself.
