6:52 "Nicely done, Donald!"
Fantastic sportsmanship.
He always has been. Mad respect to Martin Mason (pun intended)
MadCatter: Destroys own minibot.
Lockjaw: “Two can play at that game!”

Kenny and Chris made this fight I hope they never leave they're amazing commentators
I always think about them and think to never see them appart!
Yeah their reactions to this fight is one of the things that made it so good. Their reactions to this fight were just as crazy to their reactions to the Minotaur vs cobalt fight.
It's funny going back to the ABC days and see the incredible improvement they've done since then.
Yes, some of the best in the business! If you're unaware, Chris does other projects too and as I understand it, he's very involved with Jomboys tournaments 🤔 at least the couple that I've watched
It's just as good with the sound muted.
Battle starts 4:23
Thanks

@@Fattoxthegreat???
The hype guy is annoying
Thanks, I was really not feeling macho man billy maise.
Fantastic way to start the episode! And honestly, one of the best fights of the season. Well done Donald! Lock-Jaw looked great in this fight! 😊
Easily the best fight of that fight night.
Battlebots is such a great show... I've been watching since the beginning all those years ago.
If you ever feel useless, remember there is a flying bots in BB…
😂😂😂
Poison Arrow: Am I a joke to you?
That has got to be the most heart-racing count out I've ever seen!
Lock-Jaw is at 3-1, so we're definitely seeing them in the tournament!
Mad Catter will be in too. They are 2-2 with a win vs a very strong bot in whiplash and losses to a 3-0 riptide and 3-1 lockjaw
@@mercedesjacevedosilva9146 impossible. No way Madcatter is over lock jaw, and he isn’t even the 10 seed!
Impressive amount of Green Day song title references in that intro
Any fight that results in a light shattering, is a good fight
Its Steven! From Cartoon Network Steven Universe!
endgame vs jackpot
I’ve got a lot of time for the Mad Catter crew, they really know what the audience wants. Big drama and hype beforehand, aggressive battling during and always show a lot of respect after. They have perfect balance of entertainment and competitiveness
That drone perfomance was just amazing, it did a great job distracting the opponent.
Made about the same difference as running that thing over in the parking lot
This is how a BattleBots fight should go!
I don’t know how I feel about the knockout call so close to the buzzer, but I Lockjaw was probably gonna win it anyway. Still MadCatter was surprisingly dangerous, even when nearly disabled. And that one minibot was actually useful!
I think it's a well deserved win (and awarded KO) to LockJaw. If the knockout call happens on the buzzer, that means the bot was immobile for over 10% of the match.
A match is 180 seconds total in length, there is a silent 10 count before the actual count-out so that's 20 seconds where the bot hasn't moved. In this case, MadCatter stopped moving (it was still twitching a bit but not much) at 6:39 and the loud count-out started at 6:57 (ending at 7:08), so it was immobile for the last 28 seconds of the match.
More a fault of the ref giving MadCatter more leniency in starting the count-out than it really deserved according to the rules, it shouldn't have been this close to the buzzer but the ref waited until the absolute last moment it could start counting out to not let it go to a JD.
Madcatter spent half the fight crab walking though
I respectfully disagree with OP. It was a good call, refs did good on this one.
Mad Catter was out. It didn't show any signs of reviving.
@@bami2 huh?
Really cinematic fight. The last gasp hit at the end from mad catter while LockJaw was trying to get the minibot was really cool
Was nice to see a minibot feel like it impacted the battle, with LockJaw's wheel damage and reduced mobilitly it really felt like it could high center him and thus set him up for a big hit, which then caused LockJaw to chase it which ended up allowing the Cat to pounce.
Wow, that was an awesome fight. The no counting rule change really made a huge difference here.
As a Lockjaw fan, this truly made me happy.
Seeing Lockjaw not get a single win last season was a huge downer, now Lockjaw's gained redemption, ending 3-1 and beating one of the best drivers in Battlebots.
Yeah it’s great to see lockjaw back to form after it’s bad season last year. Should make a good run in the tournament
I hope that means Donald really dialed in his bot this year. Pls no more magic battery smoke
@@csskiller he just won against mad catter. There's gonna be some hidden damage if he doesn't do a full rebuild
It's great to see Lockjaw, not only being competitive, but dominant. I love seeing the new bots with the concepts and engineering they bring, but my heart stays with the veterans
he was far from dominant here.
I am so proud of LockJaw and Fusion's smoking rehabilitation progress.
5:33 the smol bot fighting is too cute
This fight had an extra winner: us, the audience. WOW!
Love how it went the full 3 minutes but it was also a knockout 😂
as good as it gets really
Donald Hutson going a long way to redeem his bot after an 0-4 shutout season, meanwhile Mad Catter held its own and even its minibot Gassy Cat worked perfectly to distract and high-center Lockjaw when Mad Catter couldn't fight back. That final burst of life by Mad Catter and Lockjaw pulling out all the stops to gyro itself back over was a truly tense moment. What a great fight! Easily my favorite match in an episode full of strong performances.
6:50 even Martin has to complement Donald's driving to right himself.
However, I was disappointed in Lockjaw's apparent lack of aggression to finish off MadCatter when it was wounded but still moving.
@Russell Hltn probably cause lockjaw was getting distracted by the mini bot. I wouldn’t say it had a lack of aggression though. This was a instant classic fight tho
I love the Macho Man angle by the Mad Catter guy
He seems like a nice person when not in role. Unlike some other contestants.
@@RusakovLA *COUGHRIPTIDECOUGH* (I couldn't resist)
I don't even watch contact sports and I like the character Martin does for BB. I just can't imagine him not starting a sentence with "YOU KNOW WHAT" or "I'LL TELL YA WHAT", lol. It's so strange when he's not in character, like the moment in the Pits where they're examining the damage; He didn't have his character then, but I swear he had a moment and let it break out at the very end, lol.
@@familyoftacticaldroids309 I will neither confirm nor deny this :D
Lockjaw has always been one of my favorites for power in the drive department
Gotta be one of the best fights of the season. Happy to see Lock-Jaw at 3-1 tho sad at the same time to see Mad Catter at 2-2
I think this fight is either 3rd or 4th best fight IMO. 2nd best to me is Witch Doctor vs Fusion and best is Minotaur vs Cobalt imo.
Tbh, I feel like MadCatter will still make the top 32. Probably not top 10 since we've already got 3-0 (possibly soon to be 4-0's) Bots up there, but they've gotta be around top 15 - 20, I wanna say. But there's still a 50-50 chance, imo, depending on how the rest of 'em do.
These are amazing! ingenuity, engineering, good sportsmanship. Wow!!
Anyone else think the little bot was so cute going after the big bot? 😂
What a fun battle
That self-right by Donald Hudson was next level!! 🔥🔥🔥
Lockjaw has gone through quite an evolution over the past few years, from being a grabber bot to a flipper bot to a spinner bot
Hats off to Donald and the team. That was a tough fight.
After Donald Hutson got completely fed to the lions last season, it is a thrill to see him ice a winning record with a spectacular knockout like this. Martin Mason does not make it easy for _anybody._
I knew this fight will be Fight Of The Week
And i knew this its not gonna be Yeti vs Mad Catter copy
if you look close, lockjaw was able to self-right thanks to madcatter minibot, one of the forks of lockjaw hits the minibot and that gave him enough space for its own weapon to push it back, the previous attemps were not making it possible, it basically gave lockjaw some height to self-right even if it was small, put the speed at 0.25 and you can see it.
You know what they say. A decapitated snake head can still bite. Talk about one last hurrah from mad hatter but excelent driving from lock jaw self righting
I thought this would be Mad Catter's match, because Lockjaw tends to smoke alot. I didn't expected Lockjaw would destroy the light and knockout Mad Catter.
He made a joke that they didn't even catch on fire this time in the post-match interview.
This hit at 5:40 sent that piece flying like a grenade shrapnel... YIKES, I really hope these plexiglass panels really keep audiences safe
I remember Lock-Jaw having a really rough season last time, so it's nice to see them grab some wins. Also, how about Gassy Cat?!?!
That was a scary fight for both bots were having so much trouble driving after taking several hits. Lockjaw got lucky that night.
Wow, that knock-out couldn't have been a single second later!
Farooq,his introduction of those robot is what makes me to watch this fight
4:58 did not expect this hit at all, thought would be a one sided slugfest for madcatter. Looks like lockjaw redeemed himself after last season 0-4
0-3*
@@ryanamburgy2791 It includes the Champions spin off which is the post-Season 6 so yeah, it is part of it's record then
@@ryanamburgy2791 yes, I'm including the spin off series since it took place at the same event, so it's the same bot. (Like how rotator couldn't use the big wedge against shrederator in bounty hunter because valkyrie in the regular season ripped it off). It's also why atom #94, duck, kraken, shreddit bro and subzero are in the 0-4 club too because I'm including regular season & spin off records since they're in the same event
What an awesome fight. Real rollercoaster
One of the best matches I've seen. Could have gone either way!
"...boulevard of broken gears.." You had it there
Thanks. That was crazy
If this wasn't fight of the week, the people picking fights of the week need their heads looking at.
One of the best fights
That’s one of the best battles I’ve seen!
Nice one BattleBots but the part where fruq came in was the most FUNEST OF ALL PEOPLE MAKING AN INTRO EVER BRUH
Action does not start until 4:23
Outstanding battle!!!!!
This is an absolute battle of a fight. Truly a great one.
Also I can never a drone and not think of Hypershock attaching a rake to swat it out of the sky and it working. This was in season 1 or 2 of the reboot.
That's unbelievable!
It's a good season for Lock-Jaw from 0-3 to 3-1. Give some respect to Donald and Martin.
I freaking love minibots and drones.
Great fight ! I hope see some 🪑 next battle !
that minobot is awesone 😂
One of the best fights so far
One of the best fights!
Thank you for the video.
amazing BattleBots...
One of the best fights of the season. If anyone ever asks me what robot combat is, I'll probably show them this video.
I agree that this fight is a all time classic and easily one of the best this season. To me the best fight is Minotaur vs Cobalt tho. Still an incredible fight between Lockjaw and Madcatter
I really thought MadCatter was going to pull off a win, but then it knocked itself out with that last hit
These two were just meant to fight! I was just looking at the profiles on each side, with Martin doing his signature pose and Donald seemingly doing the same; It was just that case of "You're going down!!" "Oh yeah? Come get me!", like they were just locking eyes with each other before a huge brawl!
Gah, I loved this fight, I would've been happy for whomever won, as SubZero's team is with Lock Jaw this season and I just love MadCatter so much. Poor Spitfire though. ;o;
I like how madcatter tries to play dead and comes with a sneaky attack
Good fight 👏
Wow what a fight! Mad Catter came back with one last brutal shot
Great fight.
That was a good fight
that fight was insane
Craziest fight I've seen!
Good battle!
Love the battle of verts! wish all the bots were 4wd verts
Awesome action
amazing play
I really expected Mad Catter to maul Lock-Jaw, due to a stronger weapon (that weapon hum) and better looking forks. Lock-Jaw really is an elite bot when it works.
Definitely my vote for fight of all time. MadCat delivered a serious hit that ultimately ended the fight... I watched that hit over and over 😮
That was a crazy fight. Probably the 3rd or 4th best fight of the season IMO. Lockjaw could make a deep run in the tournament considering it’s back to form after last season.
That was a good one!!!
La mejor pelea qué he visto
A new last-second knockout record. Previous record was held by Rotator when they knocked out Tombstone with 2 seconds to spare. Now, Lock-Jaw holds the record from their fight with Madcatter with literally only a second to spare!!
That martin mason used to be a TV telemarketer (the "But wait, there is more..." guy). I guess.
The announcer is impressive.
Almost like CGI!
great fight
from human fight to robo fight humanity is come long way
As much of a Mad Catter fan as I am, I'm happy to see Donald Hutson go 3-1 this preseason and show Lock-Jaw isn't an obsolete old-school bot just yet.
Love them bot intros
Good battle
I love Donald and Martin
can't wait in the future when we might have actual mech fights (for sports ofc)
I had to laugh at the haiku, Lockjaw does have a tendency to catch fire. Not sure why they haven't fixed that after all this time.
That was a really good fight, mad catter looked dead, then alive, then dead in about 2 seconds.
Why dont they make the tires from solid round steel blocks?
Those little mini bots make me laugh , its like having an annoyingly little pesky mouse bother you all the time.
A fly swatter can take those drones out. Additionally, the minibots are literally just a way to get other team members feel participated during the match.
Check out hypershock vs warrior clan. You might enjoy it. Also there has been a few times where minibots have come into play. Warhawk vs petunia is likely the best example.
What a fight! Starts 4:25
did the cat loose a belt on its drive or was the side armor pushed into the wheels? Hard to see what happened?
He was really obsessed with that mini bot for some reason
🔥
