I had forgotten about how bad that kris moutinho fight was. Sean's hands hurt after such a beat down.
That kid sure did have heart though nobody can take that away from him.
That was a last minute replacement though tbf
They pulled that gremlin out of the trailer park and offered him an 8ball of meth to take the fight on short notice
@@kanekennedy8819did they give him another fight or did they cut him after that ?
@@LouieOcean2 He was working at a paint shop a week before the O’Malley fight. It’s a shame his 2nd UFC bout went even worse
Calling Velazquez vs Ngannou a mismatch is a complete rewrite of history. Velazquez was a 2-to-1 favorite going into the fight. At the time Ngannou was 1-2 in his last 3 and Velazquez’s wrestling was seen as a stylistic nightmare for Ngannou. Ngannou may have destroyed Cain and eventually became an unstoppable force in the division, but at the time that fight made perfect sense
Yeah but Cain was also coming off a 3 year lay off from injuries so I guess of depends how you look at it
Agreed....It wasnt a miss match, Cain is a better fighter just bad timing
If it had been 5 years earlier it may have been considered a mismatch the opposite way
Indeed, i remember a lot of people saying Cain would expose Francis forever
Cain hadn’t been the same since the second JDS fight, 6 years prior. His injuries negated everything he could have possibly ever done. If that fight happened 6 years before, it would have been different.
Hendricks vs Costa has to be the worst
Yeah the UFC was not happy with him. Granted he did miss weight his fight prior at 185 lmao missed at 170 and 185 lmao
Idk chuck liddell actually looked like a scared elderly man out there. Dana is right. Whoever sanctioned that should be fired. And the Tito was just classless as they come.
Definitely bad but I gotta say O'Malley vs Moutinho. Dude was an actual medium-grade AMATEUR fighter vs the soon to be bantamweight champ. It was legitimately as one sided as a 3 round fight could possibly be. It's like if you put a somewhat decent college draft pick into a one-on-one with Kevin Durant.
Chael also said the jones fight was “the only time I felt like a lamb about to get slaughtered”
Watching my guy Big Rig get served up to Costa still hurts to this day.
Johnny Hendricks has/has dans lolllll ??
Yeah that was a cruel match up. Kind of like when UFC wanted to put khamzat against Nate .
It was obvious that he Hendricks was juiced to the gills before USADA. He deserved everything that happened to him, for being a dirty cheat.
Conor/Cowboy wasn't a mistake. It was a faster starter with poor cardio vs a slow starter. There really was only 2 ways that fight couldn't gone... Conor blasts through him in 1 round, or Cowboy weathers the storm and takes over in the late rounds.
So we just going to forget Cowboy was on a losing streak getting finished 2 times in a row before fighting McGregor?
It was perfect matchmaking, Cowboy knew exactly what he needed to do
Cowboy was in just for the money
Well said indeed
Long time cowboy fan and was happy he got a piece of the mcgregor money but knew he was fucked as soon as it was made
This may legitimately be the first time I have heard Cain speak
Look at uncle Chael putting Jon Jones over after an a$$ whoopin for a guy that he can’t stand personally. A consummate professional till the lights are off and curtain drawn.
Also it’s so crazy to think about how close Sonnen came to 3 world championships: weight miss by his opponent making it ineligible for the championship by the rules at the time, less than half a round away from convincingly beating prime Silva, and minutes away from a doctor TKO over prime Jon Jones by way of stopping those punches strategically with his face.
What a legend
A minute away for the Silva fight and like 30 seconds for jones right at the end
"i never thought my hands would hurt when beating someone up"😂
Feel bad for Cowboy. He was unmotivated and as he said, just wanted a way out, and when the door opened, he took it. Prime cowboy could’ve been a crazy match
Absolutely no doubt. Cowboy has amazing cardio and can last 16 rounds
Don't feel bad. Cowboy is a legendary POS
wouldn't have changed shit. Maybe could've took another 10 seconds of ground and pound and that's it
The only factual thing Tito ever said was that Chael got all his opportunities with his mouth.
Chael had taken full control of Tito's tiny mind when Tito said that.
agreed
Lol the Korean zombie checked in with the “veterinarian” 😂 I guess a regular physician would call the fight off lol like “sir he’s a zombie no longer living”
Technically Bj was right...
It did look like a professional versus an amateur
Ouch! You're not wrong, but sometimes the truth hurts. BJ was an absolute monster in his prime, but when he fell off, he fell ALL the way off.
Why did you hit enter like 7 times between sentences like you were going to have something interesting to say
The same reason why you commented like you were going to say something worthwhile
@@YourFutureBoyfriend That didn’t really make sense but ok
I swear theres multiple mma channels that made this exact same video and released it all at the same time.
Mcgregor vs Cowboy made sense at the time. I specifically remember a lot of people including gsp saying it was a good matchup. Conor was out for 2 years after khabib loss and cowboy was in a 2 fight losing streak after fighting gaethje and tony and it was also just a year after he destroyed hernandez.
You mean when Cerrone took a paycheck to "blow the roof off of this place"?
He lost the respect of most MMA fans on that day.
@@SSC604 "lost the respect of most MMA fans" lmao. Y'all just wanted mcgregor to lose. Cowboy was always known for being a slow starter and Conor implemented his game plan.
@@SSC604he lost the respect of you lmao. stop acting like you speak for all MMA fans dork. you sound like stephen a. smith
Micah parsons wants to be an eagle so bad. Howie will make it happen for a 5th round pick.
Frankie Edgar got a little bit back for BJ Penn though. He thrashed Yair pretty good!
Had to be Will Brooks Vs Alex Oliveira. Huge weight miss and made a huge factor to one’s career
8:11 30 seconds away from a win
Cerrone vs Mcgregor wasnt a "mistake". They wanted to make Conor look good and wanted to give cerrone a payday lol. Fuckin handpicked match. They knew what they were doing
10 years earlier BJ would’ve beaten the breaks off that version of Yair
To be honest Cowboy was on was win streak and I was facing Conor at comfortable weight “170”, but man Mcgregor destroyed him
Probably rigged
@@Squirrelpadre Cowboys face says otherwise
@@chasinggold6437 the fight tape says otherwise if your comment
@@Squirrelpadrelmao
@@Squirrelpadre I don’t know to many 40 year olds who can eat a kick to the face
Ha! Dana criticising the commission that sanctioned the tito v chuck fight. Also dana: Hey cm punk, you wanna fight in the ufc?
I wouldn't fully count the Conor/Cowboy fight as matchmaking mistake. Watching the embedded series you could tell that Cowboy had some type of leg injury when he was limping around everywhere. Cowboy was injured but wasn't going to pull out because he wasn't going to miss out on the paycheck that comes with fighting Conor on PPV. I think if Cowboy wasn't injured and just looking for a paycheck that the fight would've been much more competitive than it was.
donk, you make a good point. for those going through the comments, I've got good news. God is good because He gives His blessings to everyone, whether they be good or bad. but everyone has at least, told a lie, or stolen something in their life. and that makes them sinners, and God will not allow sinners in heaven; in His presence, because He is holy. so, God has to punish the sinners in hell, because God is severe and just. but God is also love and He made a way for some to be saved from His wrath. here are the steps:
1. admit that you're a sinner and are lost.
2. realize that the penalty of sin is death (hell).
3. believe that Jesus (who is God) died on the cross, was buried, then rose from the grave, to pay the penalty for man's past, present, and future sins.
4. trust Christ alone as your Savior, and not on your own good deeds to get you to heaven (nor a combination of your faith and self-righteous works).
5. pray to God NOW that you're accepting Christ's free gift of salvation because if you die before making this decision, it's too late, and you'll 🔥🥵😈
6. and to be a disciple, tell people about Jesus, read the bible, go to church regularly to worship and to know God's will for your life.
@@user-fs5sx2uh2hshut up gods fake
I've also noticed a pattern with the UFC anytime there's a new Prospect they'll do one of two things either sacrifice one of their Legends or throw the up-and-comer to the wolf's because they think they're "ready"
Ufc proves time and time again that this doesn't exist, anything can happen in the octagon, everyone thought Leon & Sean were a "miss match" 😂
Depleted Johnny hendricks 😂😂
Anderson Silva vs Forest Griffen was truly embarrassing
Cerrone took a dive for few millions even his granma was laughing at the end his grandchild "lost" all the way richer
After everything Chuck did for Dana, Dana should have given him a few million dollars to not take that fight.
Worst match was thug rose vs Carla Esparza, carla was getting married the week after their fight and rose didn't want to hurt her ti badly as she didn't want to mess up her face or cause her an injury that may effect her big day so rose was being very careful with her shots and not going all in and the same with carla she knew how dangerous rose could be and again because her big day was just around the corner she was trying no to let rise hit her witch essentially just ended up with the 2 backing away from each other throwing light shots every now and again, this fight cost rose her belt and it was easily the worst title loss of ufc history
I do think on paper it was a good match up but yea rhe timing of the fight was so poor and this obviously played a massive role on how much of a flop the fight was
tito ortiz vs chuck liddell still breaks my heart
The only reason cain vs francis was a bad matchup was simply because cain was coming off a 3 year lay off due to injuries. Aside from that it really wasnt a abd matchup since cain had only lost twice.
That was exactly his point
Diaz Lawler 2 comes to mind
So if Costa was 'gifted' the easy fight against Hendricks then who has he really beaten in the UFC? An old Johny Hendricks. Uriah Hall who was a giant mental case in the cage. Yoel Romero which was a war and a good win. An embarrassing loss to Izzy, an even more embarrassing loss to Vettori. Then Costa beats an old Luke Rockhold who was on his way out of the UFC. Costa has arguably only beaten 2 fighters in their prime(Hall, Romero) and that was 4-5 years ago but the guy is somehow still ranked #6? Not only that Costa is being discussed as a title contender if he beats another unranked fighter(Khamzat). The UFC is a joke.
That zombie fight was pointless
I remember that Chuck v Tito fight, didn't watch all the drama leading to it.
The worst matchup I watched was Mike Davis vs Thomas Gifford. 3 brutal 10-8 rounds with a last second vicious faceplant ko.
YOU SHOULDA PUT STRICKLAND VS ADESANYA INT HERE TOO, NANANANANA >:)!!!!
Man a prime fedor in bellator will be scary
faber really be looking like lord farquad
My head hurts with the Fedor/Bader rematch, just wow
Poor Fedor
11:48 Chuck and Tito looking different here..only their hairstyle is same
Thinking about that toe injury that Jon got makes me cringe in pain
when all even chael sonnen has to say is "yea he destroyed me" you know it was bad
I still wanna see McGregor vs Siver 2
tkz would’ve been a great tune up fight for Conor
Penn vs Rodriguez wasnt bad match making. They have penn what he needed. He needed a serious wake up call. If it wasnt in the ufc penn would've fought somewhere. If he won penn would've thought he could still go. He needed to lose bad
OK, I don't know who did the research for this video but, maybe watch the fight before making a video. Cain v Francis was no mismatch. Anybody that watched the fight will remember that Cain blew his knee out. Francis was extremely one dimensional back then, and he had no cardio. Cain has a great chin, unbelievable wrestling, he was a cardio machine (cardio Cain), and was much quicker. He definitely had a viable chance to win, not a mismatch by any stretch. Brock Lesnar is every bit as big as Francis, remember how that worked out, or did you skip that one as well?
Tito knows he’s not better than chuck when they were both in their prime chuck slept him so he can act like that win means something but deep in his heart he knows chuck is better than him
They're both cte ridden dinosaurs
Francis the strongest puncher in UFC history? Alex Pereira says hold my beer
Hey you should show the finishes in the video
If your goal is to keep your cash cow fat and on top then booking Conor vs Cowboy was a brilliant booking decision.
Like many former fighters *Chuck Liddell* has early onset dementia due to CTE. He probably doesnt even have the mental capacity to consent to a fight.
I still think cain could've taken him down.
Hey Narrator did you use to run the channel montagekingMMA you sound just like him
Can’t blame matchmaking you’ve got to be able to fight any style it’s mixed martial arts for a reason
Tito thinking he's a baddy for knockout a 50 year old chuck liddell who clearly shouldn't have been in the cage in the first place proved nothing he still shit compared to liddell and both in in their prime tito stood no chance against liddell, but the worst bit of that fight was his celebration.
If Tito Ortiz wasn't on orange juice he was on apple juice for sure ;)
Some of these r not miss matches at all...
Can anyone confirm is Kris Moutihno is still alive? I havent heard anything about him since he blocked 800+ punches with his face
He had another fight in the ufc n got stopped in either first or second round but I’m pretty sure he’s cut from the roster now
Pretty sure he got cut from the UFC after losing to many fight's and just genuinely not being a good fighter
McKenzie vs Mendes was hilariously bad also
Wasn’t a mismatch by ranking or anything but Holloway vs Kattar ended up being about as bad of a beat down as I’ve ever seen
It's MontageKingMMA
yooo lol you might be on to something they actually sound so similar 😭
Nate Diaz vs Khamzat was a mismatch which fortunately never happened
Sucks Cain had the injuries he did. Plus he didnt overlap with Francis prime wise, being in the late stages by then, or Tom or HW JBJ. Those four are the best imo at HW, and none were able to fight in their prime (and doesnt look like we will get Aspinall v JBJ, which is the one.)
No!! Conor McGregor was offered gaethje. He wanted cowboy cerrone
Imagine being in this video as the lower rated fighter. Ego would die
CM Punk vs Mickey Gall
Max Blessed Beat The Korean Zombie way worse
Who tf put the Hendricks vs costa fight together
I don’t think Connor vs Cowboy was a mistake - Sure one sided, but giving someone like cowboy the big money fight near the end of his career seems like solid ideology to me
This dude is an AI, you don't lace up four ounce gloves
Hendrix was in the juice
That Tito vs Chuck Liddell fight always make me laugh 😂
none of these are mismatches, the ufc did it all on purpose to build new fighters names.
Worst match up ever.... Forest Griffin vs Anderson Silva! That was embarrassing!
Cowboy said he would bend him over and knock the lucky charms out of him.
Strickland vs Izzy should get a honorable mention
It's pretty possible to get it right every time if they just stick to the fucking rankings... AND the rankings were always right. Some fighters stay high in rankings even though they don't firght for years or continue to lose and stay in the top of the division...
cm punk vs mickey gall
I don't think any of these were "mistakes", they knew exactly what they were doing
The thumbnail is silly..... Just cause someone was outclassed doesn't make it bad matchmaking..... No one ever thought McGregor was gonna do that...... Cowboy is a dog he could jump in right now no training no weight cut he still can throw with everyone
KHABIB VS AL Iquinta shoulda been number 1
Prime Fedor prime Jones would have been nice
Regresa Arsenal a Champions despues de mucho tiempo Arsenal y le preguntan de Marcelo, entiendo apoyar a los de nosotros pero no manchen 😂😅
The UFC really loves feeding their veterans to the up-and-comers. It's almost like they're using the Legends before us as sacrificial Lambs
Including Cowboy vs Connor is hilarious because the mma community wanted to crucify Stephen A for saying it
How abt Jerome Masvidal vs. Ben Askren?
Who’s Jerome?
@@Ishbikes obviously George
@@brutal_gamingtm1178 yea Jorge causal. Regardless, that wasn’t a mismatch…Khazmat vs Nate was a mismatch.
How worsted match making Fedor and Ryan it's just a lost one must lose in the sport so one have to be winner
If that wasn’t an early stoppage Chael would still be champion to this day
Khamzat vs Nate would've been here if it happened
Ain't nobody like tito man
Putting a short-notice fight on this list just makes you look bad. Was that filler or just a mistake? "All Things to Make The Video Longer"
Are you serious? how do you not put Justin VS Tony? it was one of the most brutal one-sided beatings i have seen for a very long time to the point i wanted to turn away the fact it was legend Tony made it that much harder. That beating was so bad that it was the main cause of his downfall when a fighter takes a beating like that hes never the same. You guys drop the ball big time not adding that fight to the list in my opinion.
Finally a nice channel with detailed photos and footages and not MMA ON POINT stupid press conference filler footage + promoting no name editors in the end of the videos
I mean Jon Jones it’s a bad mismatch for every fighter 😂
The kris Sean fight is not ufcs fault
I cannot stand Tito Ortiz such a cringey dude
Don't apologize U were great 👍
Lol Hendricks was only good because he doped! He loses way more fights if he wasn't on roids.
