That's so wholesome. Any man who knows anything knows you cannot do better in life than finding a girl like that. The fucked up part is Conor also found a girl like that and he cheats on her.
@@jonny5841 for real. That's the ideal type of marriage too. Don't let any feminist horseshit fool you, marriages/relationships are much more successful when the woman has that kind of love for her husband. Especially when they've been together for so long and still is like this, she probably ain't going anywhere
Before Conor, everything below 170 didn’t sell for shit. We went through a small window where BJ could sell but it was very short and only after he got the gsp rub. Love him or hate him, he’s the reason those divisions are so hot these days
@dustintaylor6422 , wrong, Pettis vs RDA was a PPV event, after RDA won the title they made him fight on fight nights for some reason, Cerrone vs RDA was fight night too, maybe because RDA couldn't sell fights. Before that Frankie and Benson headlined the Saitama Arena in PPV event. Even Penn vs Sanchez headlined a PPV event.
lightweight now is without a doubt the most exciting division, I mean look at every top 5 fight, its pretty much always a finish and even when it goes to decision its exciting
@@timurjack8773 look it up homie. That was 185, it sold 275,000 ppvs. Rhonda headlined 184 and it did 600,000. Pettis was on the cerise box at this time and they still didn’t sell shit.

Before all this talk about the best jab in the ufc as well, I think Eddie had one of the nicest jabs that he continues to improve on so that those wild hooks and uppercuts still get the job done. Nobody talks about it since in a southpaw vs orthodox matchup (Conor vs Eddie), it semi-neutralizes the lead hand of both men, and Conor by a long shot has the better cross. If Conor was an orthodox fighter I think eddie would have given a much better account of himself that night. Maybe not won, but shown up better
The Underground King! Bring him back for the Trilogy with Chandler! The first 2 are arguably 2 of the best lightweight fights of all time. Instant classics!

Facts. He knows his job but he also gets emotional in there and makes bad decisions sometimes. He can be the king of the late stoppages and king of the early stoppages.
Eddie has some of the most underrated boxing in all of MMA. Not all of his punches are pretty but he understands the questions each of his boxing weapons answers. Eddie could throw any punch and make an impact with it. Defense isn’t the greatest, but not too shabby either. We have Conor, master of the mma southpaw cross. I hear everyone talking about how Poirier has the meanest lead hook in the game now, but Eddie knew how to make something happen with the entire arsenal of punches that traditional boxing offers. I can only think of a few guys in the history of mma that had or have that ability
Accirding to Joe Rogan, RDA passed out a day before this fight duo to weight cut complications yet still went on with the fight maybe that's why Dana always talks about how much he respects RDA.
yup, rda was very depleted, also the iv ban was a factor too. RDA's prime was that stretch of Benson -> Diaz -> Pettis, his prime ended once the IV Ban happened no lightweight in ufc history except Khabib beats Prime Pre-IV Ban RDA

The UFC and One,PLF. Should come together like the NFL. And bring the fans and the fighters the opportunity to declare themselves truly the best in the world
was literally thinking about this fight earlier today, i knew alvarez had it when he lost to mcgregor, knew rda took it from pettis. i could have sworn there was someone in between but here we are lol
During this time period the UFC lightweight division was still sooo stacked and top heavy. Makes you kind of feel bad for guys like Poirier and Gaethje who were top contenders at this time but didn't get title shots against RDA, Eddie Alvarez or Conor when they were title holders. Poirier and Gathje were forced to face the unbeatable Khabib and the almost unbeatable Olivera by the time circumstances gave them their title shots. I bet both Poirier and Gaetjhe would have been LW title holders (other than Interim) if Khabib and Olivera weren't in their way, but thats the fight game.
I remember watching this from the gym I was with at the time…. We all liked Eddie but RDA was on a tear and just demolished pettis and cerrone. Almost fought Conor, then this happened… wild
Idk how the Hell Eddie got the title shot with Tony and Khabib being in the division. Pretty random title shot but I’m glad he did. That fight with Conor was something you’d see in a movie.
RDA was a beast, in his prime, he was considered as toughest opponent to all style fighters, but after fighting khabib he was never the same, khabib broke him in the pieces
I feel like a lot of people will undersell Alvarez for his fight against McGregor. But if you look at his UFC run, he fought (at the time) the best guys. Loss to Cowboy who was on a run then and I believe fought for the title soon after or just before that. Controversial decision to Gilbert Melendez who at the time was a beast. Beat Pettis turns around a beats RDA who a lot of people thought was untouchable at that point in time. Tough loss to McGregor, should have been a DQ against DP. Proceeds to have an all out bloodbath against Justin Gaethje and then a tough loss to Porier that was relatively competitive until he got stopped. If you look at Alvarez's track record, besides ONE Championship, he won a belt in every promotion he fought for and was fighting the best guys that the promotion could offer. He was incredibly competitive with near everyone he fought too. Even now a record of 30 wins and 8 losses really is not that bad when you consider he fought from 2003 until 2021 in MMA. I will always say he is one of the better lightweights to ever do it because everywhere he went, he was in the conversation as one of the top guys.

Each team individually but I don't care for the coach bum rushing his fighter climbing on him dude stay land based give the man a few moments in the cage without that. Both guys very evenly skilled
@@HugoStiglitz88 he was destroying Dustin , then Eddie probably got comfortable and that’s why Dustin took the second one Fighting is mental obviously and Eddie’s momentum got ruined
Usually I'd say a standing TKO for a UFC championship is BS but I'm pretty sure RDA had about a 0.001% chance of riding that out and recovering enough to fight on. When the belt is on the line, the rules should be different. The belt can only change hands by finish (Ko, TKO or submission) or a dominant, one sided unanimous decision. No split decisions or close unanimous decisions. No doctor's stoppage or disqualification wins. If the champ gets himself DQ'd for whatever reason, he will be stripped of the belt and his opponent will fight the next top ranked guy in line for the undisputed championship
