I think yall forget that Kai almost chinned Pantoja with a flying knee yall can calm down that 1st round was close asf until Pantoja took him down in round 2
Not happening. Dj went out on a good note by ending a trilogy with the 2nd win against the top contender at One FC. And if he wins people will complain he is ducking the contenders which is a can of worms he shouldn't have to touch after what Dana put him through
I don't understand why Horiguchi isn't needed more. Pantoja is a good guy. A great champion. But as he himself says, "Horiguchi is one of the best fighters in the world." And I've also heard rumors that "Horiguchi always beats Pantoja in sparring." Horiguchi also beat Kai Asakura. Even in the bantamweight division, which is not his natural weight class, he had a close fight with a Bellator world champion (Mix, Sergio). Dana, please bring Horiguchi back to UFC. There's no time left. Horiguchi is a great guy, and he should be the first Japanese to win a UFC belt at the end of his career. All Japanese martial arts fans sincerely hope for that.
Horiguchi said himself that Pantoja literally makes him tap on a regular basis. Don’t bring false information just because your Japanese ass is trying to make your Japanese fighters relevant
Also, if you watched UFC 310 embedded you will see how confident Pantoja felt about facing Kai, given the fact that he does so well against a guy who already beat him in Horuguchi himself
Next time, I’ll definitely win! Asakura is undoubtedly improving and has the skills to compete in the UFC. He’ll likely fight lower-ranked opponents to gain more experience and then face you again. When that time comes, it’ll be a completely different story.
Pantoja shows there's levels to this. Asakura shows what happens when you fight cans and get overconfident. To be fair, he had great striking, but thats basically it. Horrible striking defense... moves so much but gets hit so easily. Also much too wild, throws everything into his strikes and gets off balanced, and subpar grappling....
Well Kai always fights in a ring and the octagon is probably a lot different. Also kicking to grounded opponents is legal, rightfully. If Pantoja is so good he should fight in rizin
...or kai should work his way up the rankings. Kai got knocked out by Kape in rizin so they are bound to have a rematch if Kai beats some people in the top 10
...he fights at flyweight and you want him to skip a division (bantamweight) and fight at featherweight? He will get knocked out by Ilia the same way Max and Volk did
Why should DJ come back? So they can rob him yet again? They already tried it once, robbed him of the henry fight then sent him off to die in ONE FC aka no weight cut bantamweight, hoping he lose.
Its alot closer than you think, DJ is cleaner everywhere but that means nothing in a fight. Pantoja finds great angles and has incredible set ups to take someones back.
It's mighty mouse! The guy is still very much involved in the sport! Still competing in grappling competitions. Just cos he's not in the UFC or ONE anymore, that doesn't mean he's not in fighting shape
Até parece, se eles querem os melhores não adianta impor essa barreira da língua. Os melhores lutadores não falam inglês. Veja o Poatan, não fala e nem pretende falar(ele mesmo disse que não quer aprender) e os americanos não se importam, pois o personagem do Alex está no fato de não falar inglês.
@@BounceBack_clips Choi will never be a champion lol. Asians can get lucky wins here and there but they get their momentum stopped by a European or African everytime. Been like this since forever.
He worked so hard for this recognition and respect is needed👏
"I WORK SO HARD FOR THIS, DON'T LEAVE GUYS!!"🔥🔥🔥🔥
pantoja is just levels above. i feel bad for kai coz he got schooled,he shouldnt have debuted against the champion
Nobody want to fight him. Eventually UFC offered the title fight to him and that's a good offer to not to accept.
I think yall forget that Kai almost chinned Pantoja with a flying knee yall can calm down that 1st round was close asf until Pantoja took him down in round 2
Yes Pantoja is no doubt a few levels above Kai but it’s not by much it’s more in the wrestling department
@@BabyGringo That`s like saying *_I almost defused the bomb_*
@@BabyGringopantoja wasn’t hurt in the slightest how did he almost chin him? lmao he got schooled
i’ve always thought Pantoja has been the most underrated champion in mma for a while now .
Parabéns Pantoja temos muito orgulho de vc
This guy is incredible, much respect to him and his story. For people to walk out during his win is completely ignorant.
Pantoja IS the division, no one close to him
He should try to run it back with Figgy if Figgy is willing to make flyweight
Megan is a such a professional. Doesn’t even mention that Joseph Benavidez is her husband. Luckiest dude ever.
Calm down, both of you
Megan is top3 woman oat
Pantoja’s the man 🙌
Pantoja, great job. Merry Christmas brother.
What a great ambassador for his division
I hate how ppl are sleeping on alexandre like how they were when dj was coming up
DJ seems so content about being retired not sure if pantoja is the guy to get that last fight out of him

Pantoja would easily choke out Horiguchi in 1 round (RNC)
Pantoja did wonderful. made kai look easy. 🎉
The greatest call out that will never happen . That was bold
Great call out for Pantoja! He needs new fighters! Mighty mouse would be a great fight!
mighty mouse and new fighters is an oxymoron I'd never thought i see.
@ lol i think you misunderstood me, new fighters for him to fight. Because he beat everyone in his division.
@@Unclesteve16 he hasn't beat KKF
@@kratosofspartareal oh ok another one, wait he beat Kkf in the ulitmate fighter
@@Unclesteve16 yeah in 2016 😂
Who's left for Pantoja to face against?
horiguchi
@@blacksheepcat kyoji is his teammate both are from the American Top Team
@@blacksheepcat horiguchi is still contracted with rizin so that's not happening
@ sure but he was fighting with Bellator and Rizin at the same time before so I don’t see why not
@blacksheepcat UFC is diff
"FW division is on fire." It's so "on fire" that they gave a title shot to a guy in his UFC debut because of the lack of talent...
Not pantoja'a fault he beat everyone in the top 10
This division is still on life support
I WORK SO HARD FOR THIS GUYS

Next time, I’ll definitely win! Asakura is undoubtedly improving and has the skills to compete in the UFC. He’ll likely fight lower-ranked opponents to gain more experience and then face you again. When that time comes, it’ll be a completely different story.
Bro winning is life as well. Great family ❤
What a great champion
Congrats Champ ❤

Feel like they should’ve kept Mokaev in the ufc. Would’ve given him a fresh interesting opponent because DJ ain’t coming back.
Mokaev had no chance against Pantoja
Please tell Dana to make a contract with Horiguchi. Horiguchi said UFC rejected to hire him again.
パントージヤおめでとう！！！
Easy guy to love🎉
Pantoja is the Champion of Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷👊🏻👊🏻
Well Kai always fights in a ring and the octagon is probably a lot different. Also kicking to grounded opponents is legal, rightfully. If Pantoja is so good he should fight in rizin

Why does everyone forget about Kai kara france
海は必ずリベンジする‼️‼️‼️
He have to fight Ilia topuria
...he fights at flyweight and you want him to skip a division (bantamweight) and fight at featherweight? He will get knocked out by Ilia the same way Max and Volk did
I Lovee, Pantocha.
KPOP CHAMP Got exposed.. hes a good fighter tho he just lacks mma experience.. but to get subbed in your ufc debut is crazy 😂
pantoja subbed guys like royval easily so its not that crazy
you mean jpop
he has mma experience though, japan mma just has that bad of grappling
Shogun lost too
That was jpop Ufc is not ready for real kpop heat. Real Kpop champ can save ufc
Seria legal poatan falar inglês também kkkk
Congratulations Pantoja!!!👑👑👑
Why should DJ come back? So they can rob him yet again? They already tried it once, robbed him of the henry fight then sent him off to die in ONE FC aka no weight cut bantamweight, hoping he lose.
Parabéns Pantoja, botou o soberbo pra dormir!
I CAN FEEL
Divisions so ass outside of Kai, and Moreno they got nobody’s fighting the champ 😴
Mighty Mouse would destroy him
Maybe in the striking but will lose if they take it to the ground
Its alot closer than you think, DJ is cleaner everywhere but that means nothing in a fight. Pantoja finds great angles and has incredible set ups to take someones back.
doesnt really matter anymore mighty declined the fight
@pindesigns6329 I mean that man has retired peacefully no point of coming back now.
Not everyone is GSP
@@Sss21288 nah bro i love mighty mouse i wasnt saying he should come back i was just saying he declined the fight 👍
He won because kai was jpop real kpop champion will come soon
He called out a retired fighter? Didn't know he identifies as Jake Paul...
Ur stupid
its a retired fighter....not a geriatric patient
It's mighty mouse! The guy is still very much involved in the sport! Still competing in grappling competitions. Just cos he's not in the UFC or ONE anymore, that doesn't mean he's not in fighting shape
He retired 3 months ago lol

A partir de janeiro o ufc só vai contratar lutadores que tenha inglês básico com mínimo de comunicação e intendimento
Até parece, se eles querem os melhores não adianta impor essa barreira da língua. Os melhores lutadores não falam inglês. Veja o Poatan, não fala e nem pretende falar(ele mesmo disse que não quer aprender) e os americanos não se importam, pois o personagem do Alex está no fato de não falar inglês.
@ entendo bem mas Com o inglês as coisas ficam mas fácil e o cara não fica dependendo de alguém pra falar boa tarde kkkk
Putting an East asian against a European or African is like pitting a pitbull on a greyhound.
Landwehr got slapped around tonight blacks get slapped around all the time. Dont feel tuff online boy
@BounceBack_clips Yeah they do, but not by Asians buddy. Asians can only fight against each other because they are feminine and fragile.
