He is so uneventful and boring, doesn't even look that interested in anything around him, I would pick any other UFC or MMA commentators and analysts over him all day
That's literally what the UFC wants from him, he's not going anywhere. He def sucks though, his voice and interview style would put Jon Jones on a coke binge to sleep
Or were these layup questions so Alex could give an honest, calm response and silence everyone hating on McGregor? I think these are legit questions/critiques from the general audience
One of the things I always found interesting about translating between two people is the ability to remember everything without having to pause. Maybe I’m just dumb but if someone talked for 60+ seconds it would be difficult for me to remember every word they said and repeat it to someone
@@1984-i1w”I’m not trying to get you to say anything controversial” proceeds to ask 5 extremely slanted questions about McGregor in a row. Horrible interviewer, horrible questions
Thats how they display, not buid cuz they did, its how they display "we own the world you are from the ppl and we gonna protect our fighter like jon jones, but maybe you can join us, if not bye👿"
Brett, why do you need notes to ask four questions? You were stumped after the first one. C'mon man, there are a million things you could ask Alex and you had to read off a notesheet to ask him about changing a tyre. After a 10 second pause. It's not great interviewing, I don't know what else to say. Much like you didn't.
One thing I hate about mma is we have no vet guys on the mic Anyone who’s half decent has the ufc gun held to their head and have to become mouthpieces
The guy ususally does good interviews but for some reason today he felt that Alex isn't interesting enough and spent half of the vid talking hypotheticals about an irish alcoholic
Im surprise Glover hasn't taught Alex more English. Alex should do what Canelo did. Canelo went from speaking Spanish to out of no where having decent English.
He already did when he won the belt against Jiri and Izzy just said he’s rent free in Alex’s head and he doesn’t need to fight him again cuz he got the last laugh so there’s no point in calling him out the fans are just gonna call him obsessed with adesanya
Why ask such leading gossip type questions to such a fighter as he... Bret eatns the Ariel awards... What a waste of time , when some more inciteful things could be learned about Alex and his philosophy of life....
"What is your main reason for fighting? Why are you fighting?" Why wouldn't he fight if he's healthy and can make the weight? Dude came from kickboxing where they fight every other week.
This time, he was mostly on point. I didnt like Plinio doing the translations at the beggining of Alex's career, but now hes doing kinda Ok. I agree he deserves a better one tho.
my boy plinio getting a lot of "translator" or "manager" labels, respect his name as a legend of brazilian mma
Noone is disrespecting him, but he is not a professional translator and Alex deserves a professional one.
@@sarah42e Maybe he cant afford to have one 24/7. To Plinio's credit he got A LOT better since he first started translating for Alex.
Is he a power slapper?
@@TonyFreeman69420 He definitely can, but why hire another person when Plinio does a fine job at it?
@@lilbickleymane yea thats what i think as well. He does a fine job. At first it was rough though.
This man really tried to get something out of Alex about Conor 😆
thats what we need tho
@@yhyhyh47 no, that's what you need tho gossiping a** 👯♂️
Conor is for the street ngl his era is past long ago
Jiri Alex my 2 favorite fighters, I’m so happy we didn’t have to wait long for this fight
very true
You can't walk poaton into a trap question brent okmoto
Brett Okamoto is the absolutely worst and most biased reporter in mma world, this guy is so unnecessary
I hate him when he makes up his little scenarios like what would happen if you did this or what would you do if this happened.
You guys going to hold hands and cry together
He is so uneventful and boring, doesn't even look that interested in anything around him, I would pick any other UFC or MMA commentators and analysts over him all day
thanks for save the event alex
Fire Brett Okamoto. Taking advantage of the language barrier to nonstop bait poatan for headlines about McGregor. Amateur journalist.
Facts😮
that was shocking man, so uncomfortable seeing Alex talk about that
That's literally what the UFC wants from him, he's not going anywhere. He def sucks though, his voice and interview style would put Jon Jones on a coke binge to sleep
ESPN is a circus full of clowns
Or were these layup questions so Alex could give an honest, calm response and silence everyone hating on McGregor? I think these are legit questions/critiques from the general audience
"eh, so you got a flat tire"?
Great start as usual Brett.
It's really poor, and pretty disrespectful.
@@TruthSeeker-rn1tm and just so awkward and dense , per usual
Brett Oklahoma is out here on the chael sonnen juice.
It's Bert not Brett
@@thetruthpalBrett
Oklahoma
It’s Trebt
Brett is a real inspiration. He shows that you don’t have to be knowledgeable, talented or even remotely interesting to be a member of the ESPN team.
One of the things I always found interesting about translating between two people is the ability to remember everything without having to pause. Maybe I’m just dumb but if someone talked for 60+ seconds it would be difficult for me to remember every word they said and repeat it to someone
As a former interpreter I can tell you that you're not trying to remember every word. Just the main concepts
Haha I had the same thought
You are
Plínio resume. Pega o cerne das palavras do Poatan...
Not a good interview by Brett . Dude , do some prep next time . Could’ve asked him about sizing up Tom Asp as well.
Lmao okay 🤡
It's Brent, or you can call him Brad.
He never sized up Tom...Aspinall was on delulu land that day 😂😂😂
@marcioamaral7511 you mean like every time he talks? Xd
@@fgc1850
Not every time LMAO
Alex's coach can become the next SLAP fighting champion and dethrone the crazy Hawaiian!
a lot of those questions this guy ask poatan were just stupid and unnecessary. i had to skip in between the whole interview video💀
brett is obsessed with the conor question, trying to bait a response
@@1984-i1w”I’m not trying to get you to say anything controversial” proceeds to ask 5 extremely slanted questions about McGregor in a row. Horrible interviewer, horrible questions
Brett is a troublemaker, he was just trying to cause a controversy,
I am glad Alex is so Wise and calm and didn't take the bait. I also forwarded it 😁
Thats how they display, not buid cuz they did, its how they display "we own the world you are from the ppl and we gonna protect our fighter like jon jones, but maybe you can join us, if not bye👿"
Alex is a true gentleman
Brett trying every trick in the book to get Alex to sh·t on Connor lol
Brad tried to start something and failed lol
who is brad?
I love that you actually called him Brad.
That is his real name
@@TheButcher-w7z the guy giving the interview
@@thetruthpal he's lucky that's the only thing I called him lol
Dude acts like a Brad🤣
This is why Nina Drama blew up, these MMA interviewers are garbage.
Yep...
no hate, no controversy, and here im I watching every jiri and poatan interviews, this is a real fight
Chama no chama?
McNuggets: No chama ☘️😢
Alex: Chama 🗿🤑
Chama or Chama ⛳️
What a humble and sensate guy, this man deserves triple champ and he is going to
Chamaaa 🔥
Jiri vs BOSS 🏆
As respostas do Alex são mais profundas e extensas. Plínio simplifica e resume.
Objectiveness and compusre. Alex's a killer.
Brett, why do you need notes to ask four questions? You were stumped after the first one.

Mr. Okamoto: “i Am ReAlLy NoT tRyInG t0 gEt y0u tO SaY aNYtHiNg CoNtR0vERsAl” 😅😂😅😂
Alex shows a lot of maturity not falling for the bait in Conner and Dana’s comments.
ESPN needs to add subtitles when these foreign athletes are speaking translators are super mid
The best MMA a journalist ESPN has to offer 😭 why do you hate us ESPN? Why?
brett making it a "conor shouldnt have pulled out" interview. such a disrespect to poatan
Yes...
Plinio ta fazendo otimo trabalho na tradução!
MMA media at its finest: no technical depth in the questions, superficial topics, and an appareant lack of preparation. Great job, ESPN!
The Poatan on translator dude’s shirt is bigger than actual Poatan. Chama
That's a bad journalist
One of the best interviews ever. He asked the questions I would like to ask.
Just have the translator tell Alex without the mic as Brett's asking. Would be a lot smoother interview, no one needs to hear the translator anyway.
I just hope the huge weight cut of 22 pounds over 2 weeks does not compromise Alex again.
okomoto trying his absolute best to coerce some clickbait
Does this guy graduated at Ariel’s journalism school?
Brett tryna get Alex to talk about Conor 😂, Brett interviewing khabib the day after Conor breaks his leg 💀
Where can I get the fist stone merch? Chama!
Imagine the star power if the man could speak English 🌟
Thanks for the video, ESPN MMA
Bro has Eddie Hall as his trainer
I wish more top kickboxers would make the switch, man. That said this guy is a baaaad man.
Little weasel Okamoto
One thing I hate about mma is we have no vet guys on the mic
Anyone who’s half decent has the ufc gun held to their head and have to become mouthpieces
I love this so much, Alex looks so relaxed and happy!! It's such a change from "Stone face" and i'm here for it!
What tee is the translator wearing? Where can I find one?
His website lol.......he's' more than that btw
Whats the website man i cant find it
@CAdeNA_25 you’re cap bro
That is a comforter
Maybe full violence or his own website it's on his UA-cam channel
Brett is no bueno
It's Bert
NINA WILL NOW BE MAKING A VIDEO OF ALEX CHANGING A TIRE.
Don’t mention the adult industry workers pls. This is a respectable channel
Don’t mention such person in this comment section. It’s a respectable comment section
Why take the fight?
💸💸💸😂
Lmao for real. They (UFC) were ready to pay for Conor to show up. Jiri and Alex are chump change compared to his demands.
sweet..another 720p video.
brett barely asked fight questions (poatan / Jiri). always asking controversial questions which have nothing to do about whats going on Saturday.
It's Bert not Brett
Melhor escola de inglês para aprender com Alex Pereira.
Estou evoluindo mas o meu inglês
Obrigado para a tradução❤
Grande livro 📕 de vida
Trying to drag something controversial about Conor from him ???
Chama!!
He he spoke English he would be a bigger star
Looks like you can't speak Engish either...
winning makes POATAN a star not by speaking English. Duh.
@@LeaFarNas802 winning is great but he could of been the next Conor
@@user-bw5xf3yr3m he is called POATAN for a reason not NOTORIOUS? do you get my drift young lad?
@@user-bw5xf3yr3mThe reason he has fans is completely different from why Conor has fans 🤦♂️🤦♂️
*Where can I get the shirt Pilinio is wearing?!*
I refuse to see alex without coach cruz
The guy ususally does good interviews but for some reason today he felt that Alex isn't interesting enough and spent half of the vid talking hypotheticals about an irish alcoholic
A humildade do nosso campeao é linda.Chama a samu.
POATAN 💯 Win or Lose . He will always be the people’s champ
Im surprise Glover hasn't taught Alex more English. Alex should do what Canelo did. Canelo went from speaking Spanish to out of no where having decent English.
Bret looking buff. He must work out
Plinio Cruz was a good kickboxer back in the day, like conan silveira was decent fighter in 90s
Bret on the 10x test Dana Diet?
Chama!
Great interview by Brett these MFers hating blindly
Chama 🔥
The greatest call out from Alex would be to welcome Izzy up to light heavyweight if Izzy beats ddp he can be a double champ !!
He already did when he won the belt against Jiri and Izzy just said he’s rent free in Alex’s head and he doesn’t need to fight him again cuz he got the last laugh so there’s no point in calling him out the fans are just gonna call him obsessed with adesanya
5:30 rematches. Focused on current fight
🙏🏾✌🏾🐜yes, chama
brett and hale are terrible. they make raimondi look like gems
PEIRERA LOST HIS HUNGET. STARDOM WILL GET HIM BEAT.
USING REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY. BETTING THE HOUSE ON POATAN.
CHAMA! if Alex beats jiri again bro is the goat but ankalaev is next I think
Why ask such leading gossip type questions to such a fighter as he... Bret eatns the Ariel awards... What a waste of time , when some more inciteful things could be learned about Alex and his philosophy of life....
His name is actually Bert, or Brad
What's the brand of that white t-shirt the interviewer is wearing?
Fruit of The Loom
Walmart bargain bin - ladies department.
*LOSER* *LINES* fits Brett so well!
What's wrong with Brett bro? Dude wants DRAMA
7:00 bretty boy never tries to get anyone to say anything controversial ha
How many times did he have to speak about Conor
Wasted an interview 😒, Chama 🎉
Alex VS Brett Okamoto
Alex wins by knock out CHAMA 🔥
It's Brad
Bruh when did Brett get so jack Lmaoo 😂
He’s on that synthol.
@@Fitkid7672 Lmaoo you trippin
"What is your main reason for fighting? Why are you fighting?" Why wouldn't he fight if he's healthy and can make the weight? Dude came from kickboxing where they fight every other week.
They also fight multiple fighters on the same night.
Brett has to be the worst ufc interviewer
These questions suck
Alex you deserve a better translator.
This time, he was mostly on point. I didnt like Plinio doing the translations at the beggining of Alex's career, but now hes doing kinda Ok.
I agree he deserves a better one tho.
Brett’s worse interview. Terrible questions. He might as well asked what he had for breakfast
Imagine Alex with Charles White hair!!!! Lets go Chama 🔥
lol nah..
Dude should stop doing interviews, Dana must find him another job in the ufc
Okamoto looking jacked these days. He must be on that Dana White roids program.
"I'm not trying to get you to say anything controversial, but let me ask you 5 different ways if Conor is a coward"
Bom
Why wasting so much of his precious time on Conor questions? Lame.
Brett Okamoto is the worst
CHAMA
Plino seems like he's getting bigger. Wonder if he trains
He trains alot..but he be eating GOOD
@@CAdeNA_25 😂😂😂😂😂
Only training he doing is lifting that fork to the mouth
Brett has bigger arms than Alex 😅
All the better to hug himself with when he wakes up in a hospital bed
