I feel Brian shouldn't have tore into the guys eyeball with his thumb. Most of you have never taken an eye poke or gouge. It feels like your brain is bleeding and you can't see a damn thing. The doctor should 1) do a visual inspection then 2) WAIT. give the fighter time to recover before asking if they can see. What's essentially happening is fighters are being forced to lie and say they can see, and if they do that they get pressured to get back into the fight quickly while handicapped. Bryan is a good fighter but it's his fault this happened. He jammed his thumb into the guys eye now he wants to claim he was faking injury basically. FOH.
@@Xnovalityb.s. he should've called the cage side physician in to examine the fighter. And he had the fake stoppage in the Amorim/McKenna fight earlier. Don't be a casual. Beltran is cool, but all these refs make mistakes from time to time. It's a tough gig. But sometimes they make it harder on themselves. UFC refs need to get younger. These dudes' legs and eyes are aging out FAST...
I agree, I liked dude from TUF but I really feel like this is his coming to moment with the fans, without even getting a win. Dude is a class act cant really hate on a guy like this! I hope he keeps climbing the rankings he deserves it.
Honestly best thing that could have happened for him to gain more fans, was whooping the dudes ass and then had a viral moment after, battle should be looking at this as an absolute win
@@Adeptus_Santos yeah he still got to show his skills tho, he was whooping loosa ass, and that moment after will get him more attention and the UFC will want to push him more
Loosa was ready to get out of there. Dude quit!. Any other fighter would’ve waited 5 minutes to see if the eye got better before throwing the towel. Loosa got the excuse he was looking for.
i love how confident you are about something u actually have no possible way of knowing. because only that man knows how his eye was feeling, but u act on ur emotion and since u didnt like how the fight ended you then think with ur emotions and confidently proclaim something that u cant possible know.
@@alfredeneuman4947 did you see his eyes right after? Right when he was trying to fight Bryan. Couldn’t continue the fight but wanted to fight after the fight had been stopped. He was getting pieced up and did not even give his eye enough time to feel better. Dude told the Dr. he could not see after only 1 minute. If you want to be there you wait the entire 5 minutes before making that decision.
Loosa 100% took the easy way out and then tries to fight him after but didn't want to continue 2 minutes earlier? Wtf! Definitely don't even give Loosa the rematch he doesn't deserve it.
Ive been watching him since TUF and everyone knows back at that time he was NOT the best on that season - he really just got lucky - I can honestly say Battle has improved greatly since TUF.. you can even see his confidence has grown.
He was on his way to finish the guy by the looks of it, he was breaking but i cant say i disagree with your statement, this is the news highlight of the night
@@JewishBettorMMAhe blatantly feigned injury with deliberate cowardice there was no injury from the poke in a fight he was losing. This should be appealed/reviewed by a commission and ruled a TKO for Battle.
@@JewishBettorMMALoosa took all of 30 seconds to recover instead of the full five, and magically could see again after the fight when he threatened to kill the guy that was beating his bum ass. He faked it and was rewarded.
true. I hate eyepoking so fking much cause from being in MMA gyms I learnt that the open finger style is intentional because it stops the guy from rushing in cause he does NOT want his eyes poked. It's like ... grey area cheating. So im bias and anytime I see an eyepoke I just want them to lose immediately. I've seen fighters go rounds with their hands closed - it's not a question of "they can't" it's "they don't want to". You can gauge distance with your hands closed - just allow the refs to be more strict. Hands should only come open during grappleing@@Stopvotingdemocrat
It’s a real eye issue if you say you can’t see after they ask you right at the 5 minute mark. He called it less than 2 minutes into the break. He didn’t want to fight.
unintentional eye pokes happen all the time at even the top ranks and if Loosa was eye poked so bad he couldn't continue then it would've been understandable, but 3 minutes after the fight he looked completely fine@@cavemanyogi150
let me jam my finger in your eyes taking out your vision and then headbutt you at the same time hurting you then let me see you continue you the fight against a professional fighter. its funny how these casuals talk as if they are tough.
Hold me back! Hold me back! Nah but seriously, I think maybe the ref could have been specific and told him he has 5 minutes, and he could have quit or not, closer to the 5 minute mark. If he legitimately got hurt in the eye, I get it, but at least take your time and don't act tough and like you want to fight a minute later, that was not cool.
Only reason Loosa was ready to fight again was because his whole corner was holding him back. That man was scared, I bet he got surprised by how bad of a beating he was taking. Two different classes of fighter out there
What we learned today was that if you cuss out your opponent post eye poke, he may immediately recover and has a small chance to even restore their fighting spirit. Fighting be crazy.
Fighters get 5 full minutes to recover from eye pokes. A fighter that wants to keep fighting is going to hold out for as long as possible. 🤷🏻♂️ Mike Beltran did a poor job reiterating that too for what its worth.
Mike Beltran sucked tonight. In the McKenna fight he literally touched the fighters in an attempt to stop the fight and also verbally commanded the fight was done then urged them to keep going after they stopped and he realized he fucked up. The right person won ultimately, but if we’re enforcing rules, I thought once you touched the fighters during a stoppage plus yelled ‘stop!’ then it’s done?
Honestly this is infinitely better career wise for him then just a win over that nobody. More people know his name now because of the irregularity. I would not have heard about this guy or cared if this was just a normal fight.
@@drewjenn9819 Nah fuck that, just give him Neil Magny. Perfect matchup. Battle actually gets a top 15 guy against a veteran gatekeeper, AND Neil is the tallest opponent he would have faced up to that point. He can show everyone he’s the real deal and it’s not just cause he’s fucking massive for a welterweight.
@Xnovality Mike was supposed to steamroll Magny in a fight that he was well in control of until he wasn't. He ended up getting finished in what was scheduled to be his coming out party. Trust me, he was humbled. Maybe even a little humiliated.
idk why loosa didn't take the full 5 mins before saying he couldn't see. barely had 1 minute and change before saying that. Bryan deserves a better opponent in his next fight. he keeps improving and i keep saying his mic skills are nice. this the type of personality ufc should promote more.
Yeah, I think they get paid for show money + winning. With that pace. Battle would've gotten the win+performance bonus. Lossa quit and they both only got the show money.
Didn’t know Brian was such a Chad on the mic . But I now see he clearly crushes when you put him in this situation.. 💯% this made me think of Rigos video I think was a tier list but it was spot on .!dude Bryan Battle is cookin right now ..post fight ranting and straight up babble maxing like a G 💯
Same ref that fake stopped the girl fight earlier, Beltran. He should be disciplined. And they need to ensure translators are allowed in the cage for when things like this are happening
@@MMAVoodoothe weird McKenna stoppage could def be argued it should be a no contest cus idk how it’s a legit result when they stopped mid submission cus the ref touched them while yelling stop
I hope this kid becomes a big star. Love the way he fights and he always delivers on the mic! Seems like a good dude with a good attitude about this whole fight game lol.
I remember his performance he put on in his hometown in charlotte it was a quick 25 or 30 second KO only person I seen him have trouble with really was rinat fakredenov
For all the bleeding hearts for Loosa, just remember. Michael Bisping only has ONE eye, and won the middleweight title. Fought when it got injured, continued to fight as it got worse, and lied when the eye died completely. Loosa could fucking see, the dude could FULLY keep his eye open. He was losing and took and easy out like a puss
Wasn’t a huge fan of Bryan battle on TUF and I watched every fight he’s fought since being in the ufc and from his first fight to now holy fawk he has evolved alot from then til now like dude literally looks like a champion in this fight or a future champion and definitely became a big fan after last night rooting for this guy
Everyone knows he already beat Loosa and Battle should get a ranked fighter next in an arena with a crowd instead of fighting in front of nobody in the apex.
Loosa had up to 5 min to find out if he could regain his vision. Loosa then pointed to the opposite eye (right eye) and then pointed to the eye that got grazed (left eyes) Watch again. He was wanting to quit within 20 seconds of the doctor coming into the octagon. Props to Bisping for having Battle’s back.
Dude straight knew he was getting out worked on all fronts and had a way to get out as a loss and quit like a sucker dude will now be known at the fighter that quits he has a quit
Battle looked better than ever tonight, regardless of eye poke, trash talk or anything else. Dude is improving rapidly. Deserves to be tested in the top 20 imo
It wasn’t the doctor, if anything they should be the one to hold the cold press onto the eye, ask half way through break if they’re good or not yet, then wait the rest of the time and ask again.
Not sure if commissions have different rules or refs have discretion, but I feel like I watched a fight where an eye poke happened and the fighter initially said they can't see, and the ref told him to just take the entire 5 minutes because his vision could clear up. That ref communicated to the fighter that the fight would be waived off if he can't see, but that the fighter has the right to take 5 minutes. So the fighter took nearly the entire time, then communicated his vision had returned, and the fight continued. I wish I could remember the fight/ref. I just remember the ref being extremely on top of that situation.
@@lukethomasprteam Damn, good memory. That's exactly the one! Just rewatched it and the ref handled that perfectly. Strickland said he can't see at least twice, but the ref told him to just take more time and see what happens. And eventually his vision cleared and he won that fight.
Man, Bryan was piecing that dude up! What happened to giving the fighter 5 minutes to get through an eye poke, cup kick whatever? They should do mandatory 5 minutes before calling the fight!
Dude didn't display one mannerism of having been poked in the eye Soo badly that he "couldn't see" what an idiot at least TRY and pull it off!! I guarantee Battle saw in his eyes immediately and called him out! Well done Battle 👍
One of the best BJJ guys to ever do it Rodolfo Viera had trouble early on with his gas tank in MMA and took a few L’s but he’d NEVER give up or make an excuse for not finishing a fight he was losing. That young man needed to respect the game and take his loss like a man.
I mean either way, the conclusion of this fight allows Bryan to prove he's promotable and will get him the attention of Dana. I would book a rematch for 301 featured prelim or a fight night co-main event again
I was at the second UFC Paris event, Loosa won his fight but for the people that didn't see it go watch it. At one point in the 3rd round he's getting tired and his opponent hurt him with a big shot, Loosa walk away giving his back next to the cage. He was runing away from him, text book no heart. He seems like a good guy but man I don't understand how you can hope to achieve great things in this sport while having such weak mental strength
that fckin eye poke was not bad , you could still see the white of his eye ,no swelling, the redness was very minimal , i have seen some horrible eye pokes like most fans have. like theres some eye pokes i say the fighter should maybe have stopped but this one deff no , dude found a way out and took it
Even despite this being a no contest it is crystal clear that Bryan came out of this looking like a million dollars compared to how he came into the fight
Hes good but theres lvls and a top ten would test battle frfr. Them ranked opponents are up there for a reason. Give him geoff neal thatd be a decent matchup. Geoff on a 2 fight skid and Battle is up and coming
Loosa didn't want to continue. I feel I speak for everyone when I say "Bryan, we know what you're sayin."
Yes Bryan, I do believe I know what you are saying.
Underrated comment haha
I know what you mean you know what I’m saying it’s just that you know what I mean?
How about you keep your fucking fingers closed and stop poking each other in the eye. It's cheating and they do it on purpose.

That ref communicated to the fighter that the fight would be waived off if he can't see, but that the fighter has the right to take 5 minutes. So the fighter took nearly the entire time, then communicated his vision had returned, and the fight continued. I wish I could remember the fight/ref. I just remember the ref being extremely on top of that situation.
possibly strickland vs abus
@@lukethomasprteam Damn, good memory. That's exactly the one! Just rewatched it and the ref handled that perfectly. Strickland said he can't see at least twice, but the ref told him to just take more time and see what happens. And eventually his vision cleared and he won that fight.
Man, Bryan was piecing that dude up! What happened to giving the fighter 5 minutes to get through an eye poke, cup kick whatever? They should do mandatory 5 minutes before calling the fight!
Dude didn't display one mannerism of having been poked in the eye Soo badly that he "couldn't see" what an idiot at least TRY and pull it off!! I guarantee Battle saw in his eyes immediately and called him out! Well done Battle 👍
Feel bad for Bryan, but one good thing to come from this is thst I think Bryan got alot of new fans tonight.
Bryan battle looks like a Cat-Dog character
You gained a new fan, mr battle! Impressive performance! You were robbed of a W.
One of the best BJJ guys to ever do it Rodolfo Viera had trouble early on with his gas tank in MMA and took a few L’s but he’d NEVER give up or make an excuse for not finishing a fight he was losing. That young man needed to respect the game and take his loss like a man.
When bisping realized the camera was still on him lol
Loosa is a quitter. He knew he was getting ko'd. Pretty sad. Battle looked great
Bryan sounds like an articulate version of Tito
I mean either way, the conclusion of this fight allows Bryan to prove he's promotable and will get him the attention of Dana. I would book a rematch for 301 featured prelim or a fight night co-main event again
Hope they rematch or give em a ranked opponent
Loosa does *not* deserve a rematch. Send that fuckin bum to pfl
Honestly it works out better this way for him. I had barely heard of both him and Loosa before this, now he is part of the MMA news cycle
Him pointing out dale earnhardt sr and a "killer" really shows he loves and lives in that mamba mentality! Respect!
He's my new favorite fighter for some reason it gives me Forrest Griffin vibes
He just keeps getting better and his trash talk is hilarious😊
BB you just gained a new fan here...answered questions from media....and oh boy they looooove you now and you kicked ass peace broski
I was thinking the same thing before Battle even said anything during the post fight speech, dude was lookin for a way out and was going beat
Loosa should honestly be banned. Dude was yelling "I'll kill you. I'll kill you" over and over. That's not a stable human
Loosa inducted himself to the UFC Hall of Bitches
I was at the second UFC Paris event, Loosa won his fight but for the people that didn't see it go watch it.
At one point in the 3rd round he's getting tired and his opponent hurt him with a big shot, Loosa walk away giving his back next to the cage.
He was runing away from him, text book no heart.
He seems like a good guy but man I don't understand how you can hope to achieve great things in this sport while having such weak mental strength
that fckin eye poke was not bad , you could still see the white of his eye ,no swelling, the redness was very minimal , i have seen some horrible eye pokes like most fans have. like theres some eye pokes i say the fighter should maybe have stopped but this one deff no , dude found a way out and took it
We infact..do know what you're saying
Even despite this being a no contest it is crystal clear that Bryan came out of this looking like a million dollars compared to how he came into the fight
The commission needs to allow fights to start back up. When they got back into it heated they should have cleared the ring and let them go again.
Hes good but theres lvls and a top ten would test battle frfr. Them ranked opponents are up there for a reason. Give him geoff neal thatd be a decent matchup. Geoff on a 2 fight skid and Battle is up and coming
This dude oozes charisma, no schtick. just authentic, articulate and dangerous
