The nerds are a different breed. They go for the kill like the old school Brazilians but have modern slickness and elite distance management. They are awesome.
The Pablo Sucupira He teaches this distance game very well, and there's Flávio who takes care of the fence and ground game, this mix together with other coaches and each fighter's own technique makes this something even greater.
you gotta think like all of these ufc level fighters work really hard but some work smarter as well, working on different stuff, learning stuff etc, that's why we see some fighters being levels above others and all of them work hard lol for example max holloway started his career way before ilia and max works hard af but still ilia has way better boxing and the guy started off as a bjj expert lol
these guys are so respectful in the fight, constantly shaking hands, trying to get the ref to stop the fight before they cause more damage then will just flick a switch into kill mode outta nowhere lmao
I like how in Silvas fights he always glances at the ref like you seein this right? Makin sure the ref is on point, gotta love it from a guy that brutal.
There is a REAL aura to this team right now, and that makes a BIG difference. We've seen domino effects before in gyms where one guy wins a belt, and then we see much improved performances from teammates, so imagine when you've got multiple guys like this on big win streaks, finishing everybody. It gives them an added confidence going into fights, where they always feel their preparation is superior to their opponents. Combine that with crazy skill sets, and it's a problem!
What is amazing about this team is that all of 4 main fighters have the so much patience to execute their game plan. They all seem to reset well after their opponents attack
@@mkl4705 exactly , he got that kind of vibe with his fighting style , doesn't throw shots for the sake of it and picks the opponents apart before taking them out.

@@williamdebault2524anybody can be knocked out. Even Islam, khamzat, etc. unlikely yes, but not impossible in a fight with 4oz gloves. It’s why Islam although insanely dominant and the champ/pfp #1 is 26-1 in mma lol

Idk I really like Carlos his striking and power is so fluid and at 170 he has a real chance depending on his wrestling his teammate Caio is 3-0 vs the Dagestanis so who knows
jack slack mentions in his podcast how one of the most interesting aspects of mma is that some random gym in the middle of some random country can, at any time, can figure out the best ways to winning in mma. it looks like fighting nerds might become that
some clarification needed due to my word choice: i mean "random" as in randomly pick a country that regularly produces mma fighters, not that brazil is a random country
You are right absolutely on 🔥💯 the nerds do there homework for sure. Truly like a nerd But like a sniper with pinpoint accuracy each one a true savage in the cage 🙏🔥🙏
Brazil has the best striking and best ground game believe it or not they just mostly have been apart of different camps. Oliveira and Pereira, once they both start training with the nerds it's all over for the ufc 😊
I have been super high on Caio for the longest time. The guy got insane fight IQ, incredible cardio, he's tough, got solid striking skills and has high level grappling. Plus, I think the UFC would be happy to have him as a champ. He got starpower, can eloquently speak English, is funny and is respectful to everyone he's fighting (unless there's beef). No doubt in my mind that he's going to be champ. I think DDP will win against both Khamzat and Strickland but Caio is by far DDP's worst matchup. I'm already looking forward to that fight

respect to all the fighters ❤️ fighting is important for a man when he grow up mom said son talk and father said son fight found the middle and it may make you happy :)
Prates worked the body to open the head on the first one, on the second he did the opposite, punched the face, reacted so the opponent would think he’d do it again, then went to the body. He’s a beast
watching cannonier lose to borralho made me sad all over again about his performance vs izzy. sometimes you only have one shot at the title, you don't get gifted shots after a single win vs a guy on his way out the ufc (like colby), especially if you've never held the real belt. you've gotta give the best performance that you can, and unfortunately, cannonier didn't and he's 40yrs old and post-mcl tear. no shame in losing to borralho though, the guy is a damn beast!

Prates landed that knee and didn't even know where the ref was, he walked off and never even looked back. He knew that was over. This guy is SICK!

Absolutely horrific.
he's got a straight left from hell
i was there when he beat radke dude is a badass hope he beats magny, i like magny but prates' style so sick

4 Killers and 4 different Weight Classes imagine all 4 fighting nerds hold the belts at the same time. Ruffy, Silva, Prates, And Caio

15:53 Cannonier said "Hold on brother I'm sleeping"
They have their own : Well rounded technical Paulo Costa ,Welterweight Anderson Silva and Orthodox stance Conor McGregor
...and Jean Silva
Ruffy my favorite fighter who emerged
Prates is a G
These guys vs the guys from muay thai tiger would be a banger of a card
- Distance management
- Sharp counters
- Speed
- Aura
- Power
- accuracy
- explosiveness
- showmanship
- fluidity 🔥
They play another game. Simply dominant.
Prates coming for that belt belal betta start runnin😆
Silva should stay at the Lightweight.
They already have Ruffy
UFC has to stop using that zoom camera during the fights, it ruins the perspective.
"and if he can get Prates to box him, Giles is gonn- OOOOOOOHHHH" - DC
38:02 biggest disrespect ever without even trying lol
Dude Prates left hand is wild powerful.
Poatan vibesss 🏹 🗿
23:00 These refs clearly know nothing about the fighting nerds. They have 100% self control

Carlos Prates vai ser campeão mundial 🙏🙏🙏
prates is so relaxed in the cage he has that touch of death
love watching the fighting nerds.
Aka never got a video like this lets go fighting nerds
