Jiri coming down to fight at 185 and possibly fight winner of Khamzat and Rob is AWESOME. I love that and Jiri predicting Alex is so wholesome. Charma!
I'm gonna let you in on a lil secret here , Jiri is washed and hasn't beaten anyone worth mentioning for the last 2 and a half years . I predicted him getting ran through by AP same round same MOF . Stop riding a fake samurais Weiner please
You guys are talking like Alex is running away from ankalaev. Bro Alex doesn't care about any fighter he's fighting... He just want to fight. If he's fighting a no. 10 ranking fighter that's because of the UFC. He doesn't give a shit about your guy ankalaev
I was a Jiri fan, but the man doesn’t act like a fighter.. and this whole honor humble think is not for the ufc. Alex proved that he is the best fighter because he got the right fighter attitude as well.
As a Pereira fan, he sure can, but not striking front to front. He need more weapons, calf kick check some wrestling in the middle of the octagon so pereira cant use the cage.
@@MatheusSilva-zl2jp jiri would have an easy way to win against alex if he goes wrestling and gnp him. he had success with it in their first bout. Jiri is just so hell bent on beating Alex at his own game.
@@gutsglory3625 tbf Alex's TDD is improving really well, Jiri couldn't even get close to his legs in the rematch, and we also don't know if he has a gas tank for 25 minutes of wrestling
My view on the announcement of Pereira vs. Rountree is as follows. Those who are angry, dismayed, or shocked by this announcement are once again being educated on the difference between the business that is UFC and the sport that is Mixed Martial Arts. Alex is a HUGE star right now. He is, if not already, becoming a crossover star... gaining a lot of attention and drawing a lot of eyes outside the world of MMA. While he is not the most technical striker, he is perhaps the most feared striker in the sport at this point in time. Make a mistake, or simply give him time, and he will finish you in spectacular fashion. KNOCKOUTS put asses in seats. That means more casual fans with more casual money to spend-- good for Alex and GREAT for the UFC$$$$$$$. So, good business says do not threaten the cash cow and do not disrupt the cash flow he is generating... UNTIL there is a bigger star to assume the mantle and generate even MORE CASH FOR THE UFC! Hence, the UFC will continue feeding him inferior strikers and keep that gravy train rolling. Jiri was once knocked out by King Mo Lawal-- no doubt a champion of the sport, but also notorious for his lack of striking... that is why Jiri received a rematch so quickly. He was a lamb being led to slaughter... easy money... gravy train still rolling. EVERYBODY knows Alex should be fighting Ankalaev, for the health of the division and for the integrity of the sport. But integrity and sport are bad for business.
Ankalaev only wants to fight in abu Dhabi and Alex only wants to fight in US and Brazil. They both got what they wanted. Ankalaev got rakic in abu Dhabi and Alex got Khalil in Salt Lake City. Theyve been tweeting online and lashing at eachother in interviews regarding that issue. The reason theyre not fighting is less complexe than you think 🤣.
@MatLaTerreur I respect your insights. However, the UFC business model and the history of that business model speak for themselves, and I do not find it complex at all. Risk vs. Reward. MONEY TALKS. Thank you for your insights.
He is THE best striker to compete in mma and one of the greatest strikers of all time. St fu about “he’s not the most technical” he has made you mma clowns look foolish.
@@jimmygundes6266you guys are putting this bs narrative that he only wants to fight in abu dhabi. He literally tweeted, abu dhabi, new york, anywhere anytime.
@@trumpisgod2535 Jiri was doing good in first fight, he landed some big shots. I don't understand why he rushed into that second fight, he was completely unprepared for it.
@@muitnecsa3489no just his style dipshit. He just can't beat alex in a fight simple. He isn't even close to the level of striking and his ground game isn't good enough to keep alex down
Jiri vs Alex 1 showed us Jiri can hang with him. Fight 2 showed Jiri didn’t make the crucial changes he needs to stay safe the entire fight and it cost him. Hopefully they fight again, it’s hard not like jiri.
Because Alex was beat by Jan who isn't even that good as Ankalaev is. And Alex sells ppv, if he gets submitted by Ankalaev, ufc loses money, so Alex is ducking Ankalaev
@@Harinjo916 0 sub on UFC what are you talking about?? this will be the 3 fight in 5 fucking months!! it is normal to put someone behind Ankalaev, the islamic has only fought once in a year, iti is not fair, and due to the fact Ankalaev has a decent wrestler, it is possible he wins agains alex 50-50 to me, but ank is not good for the business. You must pay attention to the entire scenario.
@@Harinjo916 no man, we will find out later,but Ankalaev was the first option for title fight,be sure of that,but he refused to fight outside his are zone,he preferred in Abu Dhabi card,and UFC gave him another fight and keep him for Abu Dhabi card, ANKALAEV declined title fight in Salt Lake city,this is what i want to say 🙏🙏
I love how no one in the mma community has a sense of humor, i wouldn't be surprised if this comment gets raided by alex's meatriders trying to explain why he doesn't
Jiri is my fav fighter but l dnt think he can beat Alex,for that what he said himself,he have to evolve,complete strategy plan with change in his fighting technics,including good defens which would take years...
I love Jiri but hes just another dude who will take 3 tries to beat alex.. If you cant get it done the second time then we all know who the better man is and if you do happen to pull off the third time then it was probably luck
To the person who liked agh3138's reply to me... take a long, hard look at yourself. You like people who reply to things they do not read. The falseness of his claim and his inability to discern the difference between "comment" and "reply" speak for themselves. But, the facts that you like that and that you would align yourself with such low-level intellectual property make me embarrassed for you.
Alex sells PPV and that means he will continue to fight only strikers, otherwise he gets submitted by Ank and no more money for ufc, alex ducking hard, he even lost to Jan, what would happen against a real grappler
@@Harinjo916mfer the inbred wants to do the same tactic all of them abuse in every division: fight on home turf roided the fuck up after preparing for THAT guy over a year. Not fair
Dana knew no one would buy PPV’s or even show up to the arena for Pennington vs. Pena as a main event. In comes Alex to save the 3rd card this year.
Exactly. All these clowns constantly trying to act like Alex is “avoiding” ankalaev are clowns.
i didnt even know penington and pena were fighting hahahahahhaha
Oh for sure.
Pennington and Pena are fighting?

I think Khalil will fight better with Alex than Jiri did...he is a more cleaner striker and will make it a little bit more competitive
Man he got picked apart by Jacoby. He's incredibly mid.
Idk bro lost to Johnny walker.

Exactly 💯.. I'm surprised
You cant hate this guy
I really do not want to see a third fight, maybe if Jiri wins a couple more fights and works his way back up? TBH I think Roundtree also beats Jiri
Jiri wins the trilogy 🗣️🔥
i hope this is sarcasm no offense fam
He will likely lose the trilogy but on 4th try he can land that lucky punch and sleep Alex
😂
There will be no trilogy.. Period
I love how no one in the mma community has a sense of humor, i wouldn't be surprised if this comment gets raided by alex's meatriders trying to explain why he doesn't
Roundtree would beat jiri imo
Jiri struggles against tough technical opponents

If you can't beat Alex you can't call yourself an Elite MMA fighter.
wtf?
That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. So since pretty much nobody beats Alex in his weight class right now, there is no elite MMA fighter?
@@gentlemanjim480 you're stupid, but it's ok that you need to think you aren't.
Khalil rountree wow big opportunity for main event n championship match to fight alex unbeliable
Rountree over Ankalaev for Title Shot? Wtf.
People need to understand that Ank already has a fight set, and they want to keep Alex active and not shelved, that’s a waste of $$$$
so jiri, whos gonna win, alex or khalil?
alex - i know i can win alex
Ankalev deserved this fight.
Ankalaev only wants to fight in Saudi Arabia
I love Jiri but hes just another dude who will take 3 tries to beat alex..
If you cant get it done the second time then we all know who the better man is and if you do happen to pull off the third time then it was probably luck
Pereira Vs No.2 Guy ❌
Periera Vs No. 8 Guy ✅
Fight at the champs hometown ❌
Demand to fight a title fight in your hometown ✅
Ankalaev already had a match booked
That no2 guy only fights In Abu Dhabi 🤡
A lot of MMA dumb fan still supporting this shit
No2 guy ducked AP
You have to be kidding if u think you can still beat Alex
Never give up!
Jiri can beat Alex if he puts his guard up
Jiri vs ankalaev or ankalaev vs jamahal the Winner fight against pereira
The only way jiri can beat pereira is if he takes him on the ground.
Rountree would finish Jiri in 2
Got knocked out twice and he still think he can beat him 😅, man please don't talk about title shot again you are not even close now
I believe..
Khalil can sleep jiri quite easily
i think will be fight again Alex kick so heat🤭🤭
i wish jiri found god because if its true that alex using dark magic then its gonna be hard to beat him
