DDP & TATIANA SUAREZ!
I think Dricus steamrolls Sean...
I was surprised DDP didn’t try and kiss you after the interview
@@dustinbennett5346 lmao 🤣
I'm a fan of both guys but I think DDP does it again!😊
Win or lose, dricus is very smart and classy, he also has a witty sense of humor, I love how he carries himself, and is a amazing representation of how to be a champion in combat sport..
Stop Glazing.
He's a great ambassador
@@jordanfortier3246 stop being a hater for no reason.
except his trash talk is kind of insecure, like the making sean cry type of scenario. Sean shoots him with a "kissing your coach", and in DDPs reply he is trying to say the most hurtful thing, which is traumatic to other person. Unless of course DDP is emotionally hurt if someone points out him being gay for his coach. The difference for uneducated is, Sean is making fun, DDP is trying to say the nastiest thing, big difference and is showing the DDPs insecurity in using words.
wtf ever😂 @@immko if you dish it out,you gotta be able to take it. i dont match force with force,if you open the door an inch,i will plow through😂
Humble, humble, humble. Dricus you make South Africans so proud not only for what a king you are. But for how respectful you are. Champions are humble.
This is the problem, segregation, why not U make all humans proud as u are a solid person...
Not just S African, the whole world
@@Loopylulu8Bro stfu you making this problem maybe he’s just a South African proud of another South African. Has nothin to do with you.
@@Loopylulu8 shut up
He does not talk total shit like sean does
@@Loopylulu8
😂😂 You are a serious illiterate
Sean is such a fun, crazy guy. But DDP is just so likeable, down to earth and emotianally stable. Which is a huge compliment for a fighter, lol.
I don't like DDP for all of the reasons you've listed. And his dumb edgy boy one liners. And I'm American so...I'd rather see the belt here and not in Africa where starving children eat off of it like a dinner plate.
Nah something about DDP annoys tf outta me
I'll buy that for a dollar bro 😅@@DreadPirate43
Totally right, it's hard not to like Dricus.....
Sean is such a fan???
This guy has really grown on me. I actually like Dricus. He is a humble and good dude.Also, EVERY time he fights it’s entertaining. Dude is a warrior
Dricus is like beating on tire. The dude just keeps bouncing right back at you like a terminator 😂
@@raywalters243 Dricus is gonna need a vacation like the terminator after Strickland mauls him.
@@Theiron2142That's a bunch of Bull. DDP outwrestled Sean and outboxed him later in the rounds. Sean ain't mualing DDP. Sean gonna have too worry about the takedown, submissions,and KO power. When was the last time Sean finished a Fight? Oh that's right DDP finishes fights all the time
@@420__Momentum-s4phe didn't even finish sean
@Theiron2142 you might be a moron .
@@Theiron2142are you 13?
If you take the time listen to this guy speak, i think u will be a fan. He is so humble
Humble my nuts bro
Saying I'm not the Champion, the Champion is the winner of this fight, is the right mentality.
Seans act got old quick
This is the best interview ever because its 2 REAL warrior men with NO insecurities just chatting
anyone else hard
Great interview with Dricus, Michael Bisping. Dricus is the man, so humble, classy, love his chill vibe. He’s been a great champion. Love the respect he shows his opponents. 👏
dracus is so fun to watch. he fights like he dies if he don't win. absolutely amazing fighter. sean a beast in his own right. can't wait for this fight.
Dracus huh?
@@ryanm839like you didnt understood what he means?
Didn’t start as a fan of Dricus, but he seems like a great guy.
@@ryanm839 Drocus
@@LukasJuDracaris💥
How do you not love Dricus. Reminds me of my late brother.
Dricus is just the best i found him very smart and exciting, thanks for the great interview
bro, thats so gay
Sus asf
@@rickywhittaker4978 i like to hear people that can talk, nothing sus about that haha
@@franciscomarino2757 "dricus is just the best" i bet even dricus thinks ya weird
@@rickywhittaker4978 mooom someone called me weird on the internet
Such an awesome ambassador for our Country!! Dricus all the wayyyy 🇿🇦💪🏼
not at all... he is Afrikaans
@@Jackrabfanyowhat's wrong with that? He's like the best dude
So speaking any other language makes you more special than being South african? Get some brain cells prick HAHA@Jackrabfanyo
DDP is an amazing representation for Africa. So happy he brought the belt back home!!!!!
@@Jackrabfanyoracist much?
Love this guy's mindset and approach to fighting 👏
"you fight properly" best compliment you can get from a legend
I like DDP. Humble, confident. Respect, kindest regards, Richard U.K
How can anyone not like this guy? total class act
Dricus is a big dude man🤯 and this is on fight week😅
He said he walks around at 102kg which is 224 pounds
It's like Dricus says. Islam is a big LW. But DDP is a big MW. He overpowers other MWs. He'll be too much for Islam.
@@josepharmand6117 facts, and Whittaker says he hits like a tank, Islam is amazing but he won’t be able to hang with stillknocks
He's not small
Islam would have no chance@josepharmand6117
What a speaker so confident and assured
Dricus is a straight G ! Only man to make two ex middleweight champion's cry :-)
Lol, crazy stat but can't take it away from him he even feels bad after who expects a grown man to cry so easily?
DDP is the most real no fake persona, no bullshit fighter in the middleweight devision imo..
DDP is very well spoken. Like this guy already.
Already? He's not an upcoming rookie 😂
@@LuCassLuCassyshmeeCarusohe's still brilliant tho, I think we all like him, good dude
@@LuCassLuCassyshmeeCaruso Mate, he is the champion of the world 🌎
yea refreshing to see a champion like him well spoken and humble
Dricus seems like a good lad. Really fun fighting style, Du Plessis has got the power as well 👏👊🔥 Nice interview from Bisping, hoping its a great fight! Khamzat next haha
Bisping you’re such an awesome interviewer my man. Keep up the great work.
Bisping’s laugh is contagious 😂
A Champion Gentleman, Strength by character 💪👊✌️
DDP is a tank.
And he is dehydrated too
@@erickfernandez8236 as u sip mountain dew
Guy is an actual 6’1
@@SirPraiseSun im not from USA I don’t drink that shit 😂
@@erickfernandez8236this Interview was on Tuesday. He's not dehydrated YET. He's probably 195-200 pounds in this interview. His weight cut will start Thursday afternoon and he will cut 4-5 pounds. Friday he will cut another 6-7 pounds to make 185. The only time these guys are dehydrated in while their in the weight cut and the day of the weigh ins. With that being said Dricus will walk into the cage about 195-200 pounds. While Strickland has fought at Welterweight before and will probably be giving up about 10-12 pounds. But Sean is a much more polished striker. He needs to avoid DDPs takedowns and avoid his blitzing style and pick him apart and I think he will.
Such a class, best down to earth men in this sport. just a real human wich i would love to speak with
Our humble Sa Champ❤
Great interview. Liked the chemistry between them
Dricus is very intelligent and well spoken
DDP is so cool very much and emotionally controlled guy ,
DDP is the ultra chad
Zip him up when your done kid
@@josephbickerton1506you western men all gay ,damn
11:49 “I think he’s a goo, I don’t think Sean is a bad guy” 😂. Just couldn’t bring yourself to say it could ya Dricus
Went on to say. He’s a radical person.
Good catch, that is so funny😂
@@pred7949 😂 Had me laughing for sure.
A very humble fighter ,seems a really nice person
Dricus 210 on Tuesday with no scare just proves again this guy has the best team/system ! Champ!!
ddp is a great ambassador for the ufc
For sure. He is intelligent, well spoken, and generally classy at all times. Knows how to carry himself relative to the situation
Great interview! Sean seems like a good guy, but I am REALLY Impressed with DuPlessis. Looking forward to a WAR!!!
You can hear the difference between Sean and dricus upbringings every time each opens their mouth.
Sean is a product of child abuse and neglect, dricus admittedly comes from a loving home and it’s so astounding the dichotomy.
Well said without disparaging either guy.
@ thank you. I come from an abusive home myself and always find it interesting when examples come up like this that show how important it is to protect kids.
@@Justice4Skye i've seen it t as well, as a single dad i made sure that my child does not suffer abandonment or blame.
What you don't know about sean is that he is autistic and had adhd as well that's why he can't concentrate and goes of in interviews
Yea ones the product of radical racist segregation making all whites in South Africa rich, and one is white trash.
After just watching Sean’s interview ..DDP IS HUGE for the weight class
Dricus is the truth.. He really is the peoples champ
Dricus wins decisively this time. Sean won't have any excuses.
I think sean will try to close the gap more by going for takedowns, cause the teep kicks wont work with ddp. If he doesnt have success with grappling, then ddp will definitely out grapple him. Cardio wise both dont get tired that much, it's a case of who's evolved more since their last fight. I think ddp wins again by tko likely or decision, but much more decisively.
@@jf1341 No excuses this time Sean is going to ko ddp for sure
@@lekdennamgyal1485 DDP gets tired quickly. He just keeps going tho
@@michaelhauser6440 right, he just keeps going on like a maniac, so does sean. It's a matter of who's evolved more & who's got what it takes, assuming either doesn't get knocked out early.
@@michaelhauser6440reminds me of pantoja who looks gassed in round 2 and still goes on to have a 5 round war
Ddp looking big asf like Broly
Dricus looks fooking huge
Having met Bisping in person and seeing how much bigger he is in person, the fact that Dricus is about the same height or a little taller is crazy
bisping is not even 5 foot 10
@@elyastokhi_king9503 No he's not. He's listed as 6'2" and was the same height as Shara Bullet who is also 6'2"
Bro. He is not 5 foot 9. Tf u saying@@elyastokhi_king9503
Hes not anywhere close to 6'2
The UFC listings are all bs. They use to listen rozenstraik at 6'4 even though he's 6'0. @@michaelhauser6440
DDP asking for BORZ, have to respect that.
I think dricus too big for chimaev
sean is doing the same tho
@@ramuji5555 Difference is DDP has at least a small chance of beating him, whereas Sean......
@@Unknowen682 I don't think the chance is small (for both Sean and Dricus)
@@zylumitewhat you think it's big or non existent?
Ddp is a classy guy.
wow just watched the Strickland interview and DDP is a man Strickland is a boy with a chip
Spot on. Strickland tries to be “controversial” but just comes off as uneducated. Sure he can fight, but money can’t buy you class
@arnogericke you think this man has class? "You think your dad beat the shit out of you? All your childhood memories are going to come back when you're in there with me." He doesn't have class.
@@arnogerickeyou can pay for lessons in manners/etiquette he's just trying to make a bunch of noise and drama before the fight because he knows he will lose this fight. He doesn't want to be irrelevant again so he's doing everything he can to in the spot light. His career will be on a downward path after this fight
You have to remember Stricklands upbringing as well, he had a really rough childhood. He calls himself white trash lol. I say this as someone wanting Dricus to win
@@micklestapler4that’s a paragraph of nothing
Never really followed Dricus' rise to the belt but man is he one of the best things about the sport right now. Ive been watching victorias cross war stories recently and theres so many parallels between the character of those men and dricus' qualities. Hes an extremely stable individual who just seems inevitable. Born leader and a great talker. Love both the fighters cant wait to see the result.
Its a shame that being humble these days is so underrated...
It's part of the dumb times that we're living in my man
It's sad...
@tshepokgatle5620 I agree 100%
I like that Dricus doesn’t really take weird cheap shots at people constantly. He compliments everyone
A real champ right there let’s go ddp whoop some ass Saturday !
I really want to hate Dricus...but that mf'er says all the right things 😕😕
Why do you want to hate him?
Bro how could you possibly hate him? He's such a respectful badass dude. Also I love it because he's the real African champion and that pisses the woke people off
@ ugh cause I’m a Strickland fan and he got a weak decision win 🙄
@@joelb2930 it was a close fight and no where ever in the rules does it state 'you have to beat the champ to beat the champ' thats a silly old expression people talk about. It's scored round by round and dricus edged it that doesn't mean he shouldn't get the decision. To want to hate dricus because of a judges decision is a bit much. And it couldn't be classed as a full on robbery like Jones Reyes lol
@@Dukestboy96 bro don't get your panties in a bunch...the word "hate" was meant rhetorically...all I said was that it was a weak decision, meaning that it wasn't decisive...never did I say he didn't win nor did I ever mention the expression you brought up
Such a gentleman, just love this positivity from DDP….💕
Pleasant change to all the trash-talking. The guy is respectful and grateful for his opportunity to do what he's good at and loves, even if it is knocking the shite out of someone else...
Spoken as a true champ! Really looking forward to the future fights if he keeps his winstreak🙌
Ddp is a big guy, bisping wasn’t a small middleweight and he’s much bigger
Taller u mean he isnt that wide
Bisping has also lost muscle mass
Dricus is HUGE!
Dricus looks massive man
Dude for real he's making Mike look small and old lol
Watching from leeds England 🏴
Nobody asked
Watching this from Rotterdam Netherlands 🇳🇱
Watching from the back ass of nowhere Maryland USA in case anyone cares
@@ProdDestroyer1916nobody asked you
Watching from your mom’s bed. She went out for more cigarettes quickly. She’ll be back soon- she’s gonna earn those smokes. 👍👍
great interview from both parties
Sean is a barbarian on media day. In there, though, he is very, very measured and defensive. He has the biggest polarity between how he talks and how he fights out of anyone I’ve watched. I think ddp is more than ready for it.
Just like ddp but vice versa. Valid point though
I wanna see DDP match up with the wolf
Really looking forward to this one!
Sean is cool except when he refers the short bus. Dricus has class and he sticks to speaking about what matters.
The short bus is only in America
Dricus is my second favorite fighter after Jiri. The plot armor thing is hilarious, I'm rooting for him to retire undefeated
He isn’t undefeated
@@googlename5125 "Well akshually"🤓
You understand what I was saying, nerd. Undefeated in the UFC.
@@yeahbuddy300lbs ok dimwit. You were wrong, I corrected you.
imagine those two fighting
Look at ddp's end of every round. Theres always a smile no matter how tired or beat up he is
Thats a big man
I just watched the Sean Strickland interview and now watching Dricus. He is a big bloke when you compare both of them to Bisping.
I'm a fan of DDP. Cool dude
"When you love your life so much your not willing to die in there" DDP
Both of these interviews were great!! Dricus can talk his ass off too lol
Showing up at fight week 215 is crazy
South African accents are interesting. Sounds like a mix of Australian and Dutch
true
The language has lots of Dutch in it too
Basically, understand Dutch speaking afrikaans lol
Loving these interviews, Mike. Great job.
"I'm not the champion when I'm in there, whoever wins the fight is chanpion" how can you not love this dude. No BS.
Dricus is the most likeable fighter
Great interview 😎
Excellent interviewer Micheal Bisping , thank you sir
He’s got a real champion’s mindset
He is a class act.
As a South African I can say we built different we fight different @Dricus du Plessis hulle weet nie wat ons weet
Cringy comment bro
Insane, Dricus has to cut 30 pounds, imagine cutting 15% of your weight in 5 days, how are you able to fight after that?
It's strange I've never been a fan untill this build up to this fight coming up he seems such a great dude win or lose
Remarkable words from DDP- When u start loving ur life too much and not ready to die on the octagon, then u re in trouble.
Izzy was best when he was hungry. Now Izzy is chill, reminiscing on his incredible career, and trying hard to stay motivated bcos honestly, he has no reason to take another crack on his chin.
Firs time warching an interview with him. Seems like a good geezer.
This is gonna be a great fight
I think DDP can beat Alex if you can take it to the ground the guy is
Bisping .. Great Job!💯
DDP is going to make Sean cry again lol it’s crazy how he’s brought him n Izzy to tears before their fights all while remaining calm and well spoken
Lets go Dricus 🇿🇦🇿🇦
Love me some Strickland but I can not help but like DDP. Dudes an elite villain 🦹♂️
Pumped for this fight!!!
This man grew on me
Dricus is a class act.
drickus is a fighting lend !
DDP🔥🔥🔥 And still!!!!!!!! K.O downloading….
DDP great fight! Well deserved world champion! Growing as a fighter and much more rounded performance. Go my boitjie!!! You rule!
Had to stop cooking sauce, just to say how can you not love Dricus, he’s a gent. And I’m a huge Strickland guy ❤
I never said I would outbox Strickland! I said I would make him miss and make him pay! Completely different mate!
Listen dude I think Dricus is going to throw punches man, I really do.
@calmzat How are you???
@@eliasmartin9842 people forget man, steel cups could be a real factor in securing an armbar
I didn't say I would outbox him, just beat him in the the boxing. Two completely different things
What it do
He's the best right now but Sean got skills to win, this will be 🔥🎉
DDP LOOKING BEAST!!!! Let’s gooooo!!!
