Remember Justin Gaethje's UFC Takedown
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- UFC Lightweight Justin Gaethje is considered to be one of the most electrifying fighters in all of MMA because of his fight style. Although Gaethje has a decorated wrestling background, he choses to strike, relying on his boxing and powerful kicks. Some have wondered why he doesn't utilize his wrestling skill more in fights, but in interviews Gaethje has talked about how demanding wrestling is and how he has gravitated towards striking. This recipe has led him to an interim UFC Lightweight title in his career, but at UFC 286 Gaethje shocked many by securing his first takedown in the promotion en route to a victory. Gaethje was aware of the milestone and even joked about it during his postfight interview. #ufc #justingaethje #shorts

I'm really gonna miss him when he retires
Pound for pound most exciting fighter to ever exist
Dustin definitely
@@Alreadydone134dustin is booring !
@@sealevelcain9128 hardly bro hes striking is the best in the UFC everyone sleeps on his boxing as well he's elite level MMA boxing
Justine just wings shots in the pocket sloppy upper cuts
I'm sorry but justin isn't elite if you asked me plus I think faziel won that fight I think they give it to Justin for the bmf
@@Alreadydone134 i never said he is elite, or talked about who won the fiziev fight
I just said he is the most exciting fighter
His main use of wrestling knowledge that he acquired for 18 years is not to use it in the first place. Takedown defense and bang on the feet again 😂
Didn’t work against Khabob
@@JasperAGwell khabib wrestled for even longer
Sprawl and brawl brother
@@mr.purple250 true but also way they train in Dagestan is whole new level and that’s why they dominate American wrestlers now
@@JasperAG khabib chained wrestling in to bjj .. that’s why it’s called mma .. the small changes in technique made the difference
The fact that he never uses his wrestling offensively is still mind blowing to me
Wrestling is gaaaaay
He's usually the more damaging and efficient striker in his fights. Wreatling probably gasses him out faster
Wrestling gasses out fighters. It takes way too much strength and stamina to submit someone.
Well he sucks at mma wrestling.
Thank god. Last thing we need is another Khabib. I like to see skilled striking, not 2 men humping on the canvas for the entire fight. Wrestling is good when its used in tandem with other skills but i hate to see a fight take place entirely with one dude on his back and the other squeezing him from every angle. Its just not entertaining.
The way he has adjusted his fight instincts from just straight brawling is impressive
Yup. He really tightened it up technically after getting with Trevor Whitman.
the base was there it just needed polishing
my guy he is still a straight brawler, just with kicks now😭
@@noal-ez7wk he’s always had great kicks. Look at the Palomino fights.
One of the most credentialed wrestlers in the division really said nah fuck wrestling I’m here to knock mfs out. That’s why we love Justin
He doesn’t have that energy anymore to wrestle. Striking is way too easy compared.
Bro wrestling is hard hard, like probably the most tired I ever have been in my life was wrestling and I was a boxer done many days sparring 8-10-12 rounds, 4 minute rounds also with 30 seconds off have double digit amateur fights which is way easier, I was a infantry Marine fought in Iraq twice did many long hard ruck marches, wrestling is so insanely draining dude. Much better to be upright throwing punches and kicks, easier to pace yourself. Wrestling might be the hardest sport in the world imo, if you are an NCAA champ, world medalist, hell even junior college national champ you are a monster. Hell high school State champs are no joke dude at least in PA where im from, not sure about other states
@@Mary-dc6js Exactly. I wrestled and boxed. Boxing was fun and easy. Wrestling was the hardest. I was champ in HS in 1999. Wrestling is an art. It takes the highest skill, determination, strength, movement, and stamina.
In every street fight I’ve gotten into, they always end up on the ground. I dominated every fight easy because of the skill I had on the ground.
Years later, I remember my coach asking me if I was still boxing, I said only on the ground. Ground and pound style.
I have no wrestling experience but was a very in shape athlete with a good gas tank (as far as basketball is concerned) and I wrestled one of my buddies who had just started wrestling that year. I was really happy because for the first 45 seconds I was doing good until I gassed lmao. I had never been more tired in my life then after those 3 mins. And I mean I could run suicides for and 400 repeats all day at that point I survived the round but went and puked and couldn’t mentally prepare myself for another round where he was ready to go again. There is something vastly different when talking about stamina and grappling stamina and until you really feel it you can’t really know. I learned a very humbling lesson that day.
"I got my takedown, everybody can shut the fuck up now"
Damn I had no idea that’s what he said
We saw the video bro
Dude tried to get free likes by repeating the funny part and only got 7
@@JKennedy0204260* 💀
@@JKennedy0204you got seven lol he got 291
always found it cool as fuck that gaethje is a legit top tier wrestling threat who doesn’t enjoy wrestling and decides to be a top tier striker instead 👹 imagine the monster he’d he if he wrestled
Gaethje is the fucking MAN!!
“{Gaejthe} hits like truck” -Khabib
He's like Chuck liddell, who uses his wrestling to keep the fight standing
Justin is my favorite fighter bro dudes is a beast
“Got my takedown, everyone can shut the fuck up now” this is why we love Gaethje😂
The way he reversed chandler's takedown was unbelievable
Michael johnson is the guy Bobby green thinks he is
Frr
Bobby would ko Michael Johnson
@@mohammadmusabasif4808Bobby green would ko Michael Johnson
@@DireGoth003 other way around if he catches Bobby otherwise Bobby by decision if he can keep from getting hit and taken down
@@MrRobjs83 Bobby green would decimate Michael bumson
Did you ever stop to think that he doesnt wrestle for a reason in MMA? Maybe he is afraid he'll get tired, maybe he is more comfortable striking and wont gas out as quick, maybe he is afraid of eating a knee and just doesnt exactly know how to wrestle offensively when striking is involved.
I mean there is so many reasons for him not wrestling, people tend to be quick to just think its low fight IQ, it might be quite the opposite for him.
Just proves how much of a beast khabib was against him. Man knows wrestling better than anyone but still couldn't beat it
Khabib is a true artist. Massive difference. Thats why nobody was beating him. Plus his fight IQ was on another level.
Fucking tired people bring Khabib into the conversation of a video about another guy...we all know Gaethje fought him and lost but why always people found a reason to talk about him and his "greatness"..for me fuck him point blank..
Justin is an absolute beast
Justin vs Rafael was something else. Him coming off a lose to Charles then accepting to fight Rafael was nuts, such an insane risk.
Justin is a legit legend and complete badass that's the guy having your back when going to battle 💪🤜👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
Love this dude. Fight of the night EVERY SINGLE TIME. Win or lose, it’s a highlight reel.
Love that he isnt hugging blokes for 15. Farkin swing caaaaaaaaarn
For a guy who was a wrestler first and come out as good as he is with his strikes is incredible. For me he is the most exciting UFC fighter I ever watched. Everyone says he is the hardest puncher/kicker they ever faced. I believe them. The man is an out out fighting machine.
This dude is my favorite fighter atm
Justin is a beast. He’s gonna come back better after the loss to Max. All warriors. Tough as nails.
Imagine being one of the most talented wrestlers in your division, and still actively choosing to not wrestle. Guy is crazy, but ill be damned if it hasn't worked for him.
He the modern iceman
Dustin and Shane Gillis both have like 1/2 the extra gene 😂
Rest up champ see you next year for the comeback!
His legacy still building
This mf doesn't even use wrestling when he's in trouble and on the verge of getting KOd definitely one of the baddest mfs to ever do it
Same way Liddell fought n he was one of the most entertaining fighters in mma as far as style of fighting
Michael Johnson should never try and trash talk ever
I don't care what anyone says if Gaethje goes to 175 he's giving everyone problems
That boy already slurs his words a bit
He really is a freaking beast
It took him a while but Justin fights smarter and smarter each fight, chandler could learn a lot from him
Yup, it’s kinda insane he is still getting this much better every fight. In fight adjustments are also getting better.
That was literally the last 10 seconds of a fight he was clearly winning
Justin gotta be the only wrestler in the UFC to absolutely NEVER want to use it lmao
Im not ready for when Justin retired 😢
Justin was right mike did start panic wrestling as soon as jaethje landing hard shots
in that eddie fight, justin’s body literally just rejected his brains attempt at a takedown 😭
Good form 👍🍻
Wrestlings good if it sets up strikes and submissions.
Dude been doing wrestling for 18 years and still got bad wrestling
He just doesn’t give a fuck. It’s more important to him to get back standing if he can and try and beat his opponent up standing. There’s few that can even stand and bang with Justin in his division anyways.
@@SergioMendoza760 and that is also why he will never become a champ
Oh nice another confidant keyboard warrior talking about a 2 time state champion on how to wrestle stfu😂that double leg was slower than usual and still turned the corner on his shot even after 3 rounds of war with Fiziev.
You have no clue what you’re talking about lol
@@greatkingkahngaming5199 wym dude has been wrestling for 18 years and his wrestling sucks badly
Nothing but respect to this wild SOB. He is a bad mofo for sure...thats a guarantee.
If he had good coaching he would have been the best to ever do it; dumb to not be an offensive wrestler when you are that damn good
He only has 4 loses and 20 kos. He already is badass in the feet
@@subzeromidnight5388 yes ofc but I mean he never uses offensive wrestling to take down etc., only defensively, he has openly admitted it; I hate it cause he should have been the champion imo
@@stefanocioni2587 i understand what u mean but takedowns are useless if he cannot grapple. The guys he has lost to are some of the best grapplers in lightweight division. And im including alvarez and poirier.
@@stefanocioni2587he wasn’t a very offensive wrestler in college though.
@@heman2379 I understand , he should have evolved into one, same reason romero couldn’t be the best
Sprawl and brawl
Love justin .I m muslim always cheers for him .good humam ,he loves this sport and he s best entertainer athlete ,nobody is perfect i love mentality that he dont give .... if he lose .I think calm Justin like with Fiziev and Poirier cam beat Islam Makachev..
Gaethje and porior are the only two fighters who retain their position after losing against khabib👏
People’s champ
Smoked Chandler! Rafael Faziv you ok?
My favorite ass woopin in Justin's career. Talking about his mom was dirty.unforgivable.
In the end Justin's still on the top while Johnson is working the parking lot at Wonderburger
Why did Chandler loose ground control immediately as soon as he slammed Poirier & GayChi down. Looks very weird.
Gaethje has 0 ground game. Sick of this notion that he is good on the ground cause he wrestled 20 years ago. Against Charles and khabib he literally just laid there with absolutely 0 defense.
He's admitted in recent years that once he was done wrestling in college he completely neglected any wrestling and grappling for most of his career. I can imagine that if you don't use a skill set for years that it will hurt you. But also Charles and Khabib are special fighters, even if he did work on his ground game for years it still may have not been enough.
wow so he just said that he literally don’t want to wrestle again because he has enough
Justin Gaethje and Dustin Poirier will lose. Islam Makhachev is very strong
Islam is in a different level. Plus he’s learned from the best. Hes also a 2x combat sambo champ. Now he’s striking with Cain. Cain even said Islam gave him his hardest sparring ever. Cain is a HW.
Him
Where was this against Charles 😂
And then think of how easily Khabib dispatched him..
here before you get a million views
I love that I got my takedown. So Everybody shut the f… up fazeiv has good takedown defense too
I got my take down . So everybody stfu now 😂😂😂😂
Rich lol
He’s gonna have to wrestle is he ends up fighting Islam
The fact that he lost to Michael Johnson lol
He tko’d him in the 4th round what are you on about
Gathje cant wrestle
He’s a D1 All American! And you say he can’t wrestle? Lmao
@@Khaled68335 That's basically like saying he's the baddest kid in weenie hut jr's
@@Khaled68335He has a lot of fear on the ground.
The worst wrestling wrestler I have seen in MMA😂
Good thing he doesn’t wrestle 😂
@@bobjimbobjim9006 true but that's limiting him for the belt. But his fights r fun
He’s like most. Wrestling is impossible against an mma fighter. It takes extreme knowledge, stamina, massive strength, placement, timing, etc.
That’s why they all stick to striking. It’s so easy. Takes little energy and skill. Anyone can get a lucky punch.
Nobody ever got a lucky submission.
Justin is a warrior.
