Really impressed by the segment about Marcus McGhee. "Far better people have suffered worse", these are strong words to live by and be grateful for the chances life gives you. Wishing him the best in his UFC path
This is the first time I heard someone compliment DDP's fight IQ. All of his UFC fight execept the Whitaker's fight, he was on the verse of losing and gas out after 1st round. His whole gameplan was brawling and throw powershot which is very exciting for the fans but that not like he is the most technical fighter here.
@@tempomatrix And where in my comment did I said something about style or fancy moves? Fight IQ just mean thing like know how to conserve energy for 5 rounds fight, which is something DDP notoriously bad at, know how to stay at range and defend yourself, recognizing opponent weakness and patern... And I do love a good brawl as much as anybody, which is why I said DDP's fights are usually very exciting. Don't just see the "Nguyen" in my name and assumpt that I obsess with Kungfu and fancy moves cause that is quite ignorant.
Such a specific comment. Stop embarrassing yourself. He will be the fourth African champion and the first from South Africa if he wins. I have no doubt in my mind what you look like.
@@Obiodum_ You don't seem to get it, none of those Africans actually lived or trained in in continent of Africa. Dricus is the first one. It's not that complicated. To make it a bit more easier to understand, ask yourself, how many pro mma fights did Izzy or Usman had in Africa? How many Africans have build their mma careers in Africa? I can think of only one.
@@kooskoekemoer Where you train doesn't change what you are genius. Evidently you haven't got much going on upstairs so I'll explain for you carefully and make it easy for you to understand. Adesanya, Usman and Ngannou are indigenous Africans who migrated from their countries to get opportunities that were not available in their respective countries. Du Plessis comes from the lineage of Apartheid beneficiaries who have controlled the wealth in South Africa for decades and also is from a nation that has had a thriving MMA scene for years. If he had grown up in any other African nation like Nigeria, Cameroon, Benin, Senegal etc he would've had to migrate like Ngannou did. It is incredibly disingenuous to leave out this information but you're doing so because you know you're wrong and want to try and force this narrative. By your logic, Islam Makhachev and Khabib Nurmagomedov aren't Dagestani Russian champions as they train at AKA. Anderson Silva isn't a Brazilian champion as he lived in the USA. Wanderlei Silva wasn't a champion as he lived in the US. Valentina Shevshenko isn't Russian because she trained and lived in Peru. Your logic is ridiculously flawed and is only used to try and undermine actual African champions that won already won the belt. Du Plessis will be the fourth African champion and the first from South Africa if he wins. This isn't rocket science. But we both know why you're trying to undermine the achievements of the three that came before. I'm sure you look exactly like Du Plessis.
Only someone special can overcome an instance of debuting in the biggest company in the world under such disadvantages; clearly indicated by him saying to himself "What short notice? All your life you said you want it, now it is here!".. Dricus Du Plessis is special, you will see much more if you still do not believe!! 👊👊🤞😒
Class act DDP. That's how a UFC world champion should act!!
Dricus du Plessis 🇿🇦🇿🇦

Dricus is awesome - all class since his EFC days🔥
DDP's ability to recall fights is really insane. That shows you how high his fight IQ really is.

Ability to recall fights, yet he can't even remember that he isn't the first to KO Whittaker, lmfao.

Dricus will be the first man to win a belt out of an African gym. We are witnessing history.

@Bia67- if that's true why do so many foreign fighters move to a gym in the U.S.?
Du plessis is something special 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Marcus is an example and a real role model! I'm looking forward to watching him fight again!
Marcus is very likeable. Love the way he speaks/carries himself. Nice to see he managed to pull himself up out of the shit and make a better life =)

Yeah Canda got shafted theres like 4 or 5 good fights on the card.
They will be giving us the weather next 😂
Hey anybody know what time the weigh-ins are going to be in Toronto?
UFC makeup artists: "How much makeup would u like Drew?"
Drew Dober: "Yes"
malott is a poor man's OAM
Marcus McGhee and Sean Strickland had similar upbringings but I 100% think McGhee is just a better man
Drew please post your picks, and I'll get rich backing the other...
Am I the only one who find Drew Dober's commentary quite entertaining. I mean bro could possibly get do a commentary or analyst gig for apex cards
👍👍👍
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Meg no blazer facing away from the camera would be a great episode, just saying...
I just love Megan
