BC has the sense of humor of the funniest kid in the 6th grade
and we love him for it

Lol beauty tag
Bro boys make those jokes when they’re 12th grade
He’s that high school boy
@@lordkira9791 Not from where I'm from lol, we were making all those sex jokes at like 13
You hang around a lot of 6th graders?
LT: Brian, anything u wanna plug?
BC: I can't say it out loud Luke
😂 Classic BC vs. LT MK moments. Good to see The Man in the hat, can't we get Chuck for the Post Fight PPV Reviews too?
He does the ringer post fights

Never bro
I love these preview videos with the 3 guys.

LMAO the camera cut to LT when Brian is talking and Luke is just taking a hit of that vape.
Does he weed vape or the nicotine vape?

Cant wait mate
PreGame Preview with Chuck is always your best work.
The man in the hat?
Hell yeah.
Everytime
💯
I just love the 35 minute mark of Luke absolute coolness sipping his vape. 🤣
Vaping is for losers i.e. not cool
I love Brian's commitment to the continuous digs at Schaub's "comedy" career

These pre game previews are my favourite part of the lead up to every ppv
Brian giggling after pouring chuck a giant whiskey had me dying.
This is the intro we needed!
I wish chuck was just part of the show full time
Would cull BC in the process.
1:05:35 "Cody garbrandts back" "oh my God...." lmao!
1:09:20 GOAT Ending 🤣 never change BC, never change👌
😂😂😂
Iceman talked about how good jalin turner was on an earlier episode
I like upsets once in a while. It certainly would have been something if both Gane and Grasso wins considering that both Jon and Valentina have had great longevity and their time.. Just hope the fights have some back and forth moments.
1:02:41 between BC saying this and Luke immediately sarcastically saying “yea remember when it was like that for you” I couldn’t stop laughing at this part 🤣
It's always weird to me how many people are so willing to say Reyes beat Jones (which I think he did) even though he lost on all three cards, but people don't take that same energy to the Santos fight where Santos actually won a score card.
To most people, the Reyes fight was more obvious, but I'm with you. I think he lost both fights.
I like that you have Thomas Picketty’s book hangin in the back.
On all polls I've seen everyone seems more excited for the Jones fight than anything else. This is gonna be a huge card.
Lmao
Yeah a ton of my friends have asked me about this fight and none of them are mma fans. Gonna be a lot of casual viewers watching
Chuck is an A1 guy fr
Pre game preview’s are always on point. Love this in my fight week build up
I want to see Blaydes vs Jones, The Polar Bear vs Jones, or the Tom Aspinall vs Jones.
Stipe vs pavlovich next please!
@@Maartun Don't do that to my boy Stipe please lol
@@TheNightWolf-WildCraft It would be the final farewell.
@@seattleryan5721 I've met Stipe in person from Cleveland absolutely love the guy, it's a winnable fight but I don't want him to fight unless it's for a belt.
@@TheNightWolf-WildCraft I hear you.
LT sounding like Amos with all this Churn talk
If they had to pay the $80+ price tag for Tiger Thicc the panel would be disappointed. Rotgut review on UA-cam rated it blind and said it was a 35ish whiskey.
Its probably nice after a gas station hot dog, and you'll never hear a fair analysis from Luke about Brendan.
Shavkat has soooo big potential. Agree
Alright I agree
it's funny, i constantly hear ppl talk about gaethje and poirier as guys who are protecting their rank and avoiding guys or whatever, but i never hear that about colby
Who's clammering for more Colby fights? I think that's just the difference in demand
Because he is there as a gimmick more than anything else. You think anyone else would get that ranking with wins over RDA, Lawler and Woodley right before he was cut? Colby is one the Chael/Dan Lambert quota.
@@utkarsh2746 oh boy. You may not be stupid, that take is white hot dude. He was very competitive with usman, and wins over RDA and Lawlor even then were certainly noteworthy
@@user-pb3hg4sb8z it's all the division had at the time. He showed they were washed. Jones had the same luxury on his rise. Colby showed he was legit in the Usman fight, even if you arent a fan of those goof ass punches lol. What can you do, the UFCs quality has gone off a cliff since the pandemic
@@user-pb3hg4sb8z you're acting like that's unusual for a title challenger. It's not. I don't buy into those UFC generated rankings anyways, who would have been top 5 during that time?
Great to see the MMA Beaters back together again...
The beat off hahahahaha
@@hardstyleeric ...exactly
Chuck is a part of the two best trios in MMA, and that's not a coincidence
The man in the hat wears many hats
Well fuck yeah...
I want to see Brendan Allen’s hat fight Shavkat’s hat !
Throw in Khabibs hat for the 3 way !
When fighters like Conor talk about "creating your own reality," there are 2 clear examples:
1.) Conor McGregor's fight with RDA for the title at 155 pounds fell apart after RDA stubbed his toe on a chew toy. While flailing his arms wildly against RDA, Eddie accidentally won the title by stoppage.. Conor then skipped RDA, to face a very unsteady "deer in the headlights" Eddie Alvarez for the title.
2.) Through a bizarre unprecedented turn of events, Ngannou left the UFC on a win, vacating the title and leaving behind an old battered Stipe and a completely unmotivated Cyrl Gane, basically just handing Jones a free heavyweight title. Consider Tony Ferguson's career for contrast.
i started watching this at the gym, but then Luke said "i cant stop farting" and i had to put on somethng else lol not gonna laugh/hold back laughter in the gym haha
I’m here for the SKITS N BITS
The interview of Gane is by "La Sueur" (= the sweat) the best YT French channel on MMA.
Gane is a next level heavyweight. He is lightning fast, bouncy, strong, diverse striking, and fresh.
Jones 3rd round Sub
Gane will defeat Jones.
Gane is going to light him up
Jon better pray he can get him down if not he's fucked
@@joshuajames2425 he will
I'm a casual UFC fan and honestly Jon Jones is the reason I really started watching the UFC and he's the reason I'm back watching videos on his upcoming fight.
BC is 100% in row 8 on delta airlines and it is showing
Too much Delta 8 ..........sure is ,I agree.maybe row 9...lol
It's possible that JJ is doing everything right outside of mma, and we are the ones doing it wrong..
Jon is the most intelligent MMA fighter ever. Unfortunately, his fight IQ doesn't transfer to his life decisions.
His ring IQ was his coaching and this is his first fight outside of Jackson Wink
ariba, alberto…. 😂
I really like listening to Chuck, but cannot tolerate BC long enough to get through the first few minutes. Congratulations on all the awards; obviously something is working, but BC is the reason I rarely listen these days. Been following Luke since 2016-2017. I'll stick to watching his solo episodes
Brendan Schaub, is this you?
BC is literally the reason to watch all of this or else it wouldn't be much exploration of all the topics in a funny way.
BC is definitely awful. Luke can be insufferable also. Get a grip, buddy.
I get you. I've become a BC hater myself.
Enjoy the technical difficulties and endless monotone, friend.
Tonight on MK: Luke is gifted a vape. BC tells a joke about his sisters 8th grade graduation party…and lands it. And Chuck wears his favorite hat.
Dang, no spoiler alert?
Anyone else score Santos over Jones? Other than 1 judge.
What's happening or happened to Valentina is she was out making Hollyweird movies with Hollyweirdo Halle Berry, then traveling around the world doing all these photo shoots. She slacked off and slept on Santos. If Valentina is refocused she should destroy Grasso.
Why is Halle Berry weird genuinely curious I've only heard good things
Luke's shoes are dope. What are those?
Jon’s gonna get stopped after taking a sustained beating.
My boy luke smoke the smallest hit of a vape ive ever seen
Good one fellas.
Jones last 3 fights were boring struggles for him all while everyone in media jacks off over how amazing best of all time he is.
All the out of the cage stuff also kills any interest for me, hitting his wife? ew
1:09:19 🤣
The argument of Francis took Gane down so Bones can isn’t that simple, Francis is a lot bigger and stronger than Bones
BC just constantly interrupting
Well the 🐐 is back to regain his throne at the top of the P4P rankings
The reason mma fans in general are fickle is because the main mma organisation feeds and caters exclusively to this market segment of casual fans
BC serving up MSG-filled dishes from the start
If you know you know. BC is a regular at Changs
@@lieutenantdan7212 he’s the goddamn CEO
@@TheNotoriousLCB lol now that you mention it, he might be. He's been sprinkling in little appetizers for us for a long time. The first time I noticed was when Brenda's first "special" dropped. He kept saying "you'd be surprised" during episodes. 😂😂😂
@@lieutenantdan7212 you gotta spend more time at the fryers, B
@@TheNotoriousLCB ten four
Jones at heavyweight has one way to win consistently : submissions. He never had power and his reach advantage is greatly diminished at heavyweight. I hope Gane mess him up.
10/10 intro
To answer Lukes question regarding if Gane is what you’d build if you want a fighter that beats Jones the answer is no.
You don’t need to build anyone.
*Tom Aspinall* is the answer.
He is the fight, except nuclear Francis, that has the tools to win over Jones.
He is faster, can crrrrack, can sub any HW and most likly has enough of wrestling to at least hang with JJ.
how about an Ariel Helwani cameo?
You would think with all the ammo in BCs personal life he wouldn’t go so hard on other people hahaha
jon could not beat ciryl in his prime, the question isn't whether jone sitll has it, the question is if he'sgotten better
Love the running gag of BC being low key racist 😂
1:08:43
For me a GOAT don't cheat with steroids.
He can't be a GOAT for that reason.
Good thing it's not up to you lol
Yup
If i had a shirt like BC id cut it up and use it for rags in the garage.
Cody garbrandt represent what happens when a fighter has a lot of ability but has a terrible chin.
He beat a legend in dominick cruz in an impressive way, but it was more of a stylistic thing than him being great.
There was a reason why he did good in that fight, a trick that people missed, and its simply Dominick cruz doesn't have ko power.
First of all cody fought cruz the exact same way he fought tj and munhoz and assuncao
People only remember the exchanges of punches cody did against tj and munhoz that lead him to being koed,
But nobody seems to remember that Cody was also in many of the same type of flurry of punches exchanges with dominick cruz and he got caught by cruz on multiple occasions, but he didn't get hurt or dropped because cruz has pillows for hands.
everytime cody fought anybody with real ko power he lost in brutal fashion. Tj dillashaw and munhoz and France.
Thats why he was able to beat assuncao after his 3 loses streak, because assuncao don't have power.
Cody stopped his amateur boxing because he was getting koed there as well and in his amateur mma he also got koed cold before hand. It's just a fact if he had max holloway chin he would have been a long reigning champio but life doesn't work like that.
I think you left out he was void of emotion in the cruz fight, very relaxed. He did get hit by cruz but didn't rush in to get one back straight away, power or not. He was unfortunate in the first tj fight as he had success early and got caught hard the following round. He got clipped with a knee in the munioz fight and that last sequence was utter nonsense planting his feet and trying to win the hardest head award. Yes his chin is gone but he beat cruz through superior skill/speed and repetition, his team had 4 fights with cruz at that stage? They knew him well
I hope Jon Jones n Luke can be friends at some point
He wears it because mike Perry suggested it. This is the same logic that Conor started proper 12 because artem mentioned it. A dumb comment luke. The reason is the Scottish heritage not the suggestion
Luke not drinking makes me sad
I’m conflicted. The last time he was lit was funny, but destructive. I like seeing him build, so I’m cool with it.
How do I do that with no number.
Don't be sad, he's riding with opy
Jon is violently great I can’t wait to see the Devil return 👑
What black shoes is Luke wearing??? I want those
Luke only wears shoes of color to show his alliance
Looks like a a pair of xeros.
Looks like Vivobarefoot Magna Forest
Keds
"Nobody puts BC in the corner"
Goat
Francis did not destroy Stipe in the last fight. Francis was stung before he landed that lucky punch
he ragdolled him and knocked him out stiff lol
@@semperveritas47 i suggest you rewatch the fight...
@@travishd1986 i’ve watched it multiple times, stipe couldn’t take him down, Francis reversed him and tossed him to his knees pounded on his head and then sparked him after he got back onto his feet
Why is Big Luke wearing jeans and wrestling shoes 🤼♂️
Can’t wait to see Jon Jones! He’s my favorite UFC fighter!
Disappointed you barely talked about Ciryl Gane
gane and others being born athletic is similar to, if not the same as guys that are born and look like musicians; rock n rollers to be exact. tall, skinny, thick hair. the idea that you have to look like that has been somewhat shattered over the years, of course there is diversity, but if youre playing rolling stones style rock n roll and are 6'3 130lbs, the overweight guy who is balding, playing the same style music but is significantly better is 9 times out of 10 gonna be passed on or over looked if youve got some big-wig record executive whos looking for the next band of rockers to rule the world.
ive always thought it would be interesting to do a weird experiment where you get a bunch of people that have similar characteristics, like how some people for some reason look like a bird, some people do weird things with their wrists, the distinctions are endless - basically just categorizing people that look the same. tons of people look like various animals, from horses to frogs, birds as i mentioned. and im not just talking about, "you have an oval face, so this style of glasses are good for you."...its something different. some people look evil, some people look like a mushroom. i guess perhaps its all subjective, but im curious if anyone else has ever thought of this. maybe there have been such studies that im unfamiliar with and if so, id love to know. i have a feeling there isnt though since ol william and mary luke cant describe this much better than i can. i guess ive always wanted to articulate that but never had a public or online forum where it seemed appropriate. im sure ill get shit on for people thinking this is utter retardation, but cut me some slack, i didnt sleep last night.
jon all day, hes got more tools than anyone and i predict spinning elbow round 2..
Let's be serious, Jon lost his last fight
BC would be me too'd if MMA was bigger
Why would Jon have to win to be solidified as the GOAT? Does nobody know what he's accomplished? He beat Ryan Bader to get his title shot, then Shogun, Rampage, Machida, Rashad, Vitor. Destroyed 6 world champions in 18 months. He could have retired on the spot and been the all time GOAT. But he then beat Chael twice, DC twice, Gustafsson twice, Glover, Saint Preux, Smith, Santos, Reyes. 15 title fights, 15 wins, Jon hasn't fought in a non title fight in 13 years. What the hell are we doing here? He was the GOAT if he retired in 2014
Jones will look fast at heavyweight
I'm surprised this came out before UFC 285, lol
Chuck all day, BC all night.
BC got on my nerves so much this episode it’s kinda insane
BC’s shoe game is soooo weak. No lace slip ons are 🗑️
🎶🥂🎶❤️
14:21 boy i really have to disagree with the MK boys here, it definitely feels like a Giant Event that America's favorite Sociopath is back, and the CRAZY Numbers the UFC Embedded videos are getting Instantly (all w/ Jon's face plastered on the thumbnails btw) speak to that. People are definitely curious to see what this crazy person has for Heavyweight.
tbh i sometimes think guys like Luke, BC & Chuck are a little jaded cuz they've been inundated in sooo much MMA for so long, maybe they're just desensitized to shit? idk.
love these donks
well if Valentina isnt the goat, neither is Amanda Nunes. Cyborg is still womens mma goat, but Valentina has to be #2, Nunes is not the fkn goat. Valentina only lost to her twice, fighting up in weight, and her only other loss was a doctor stoppage. Amanda has lost 5 times, and she managed to lose to Pena somehow ( who valentina finished btw) and couldnt manage to finish Pena in her last fight either. If Valentina was equal in size with Amanda, she beats her fairly easily
STIPE is legit but he don't sell pay per view, and if you put STIPE against GANE or JONES the reality the two of them get murked, so they schedule scenario more for the story, that's it, why disappeared, did you think is scared, like NGANNOU, vous croyez vraiment sa ?? Where is STIPE MIOCIC the best wrestler of the division, former champion !? And Curtis blade, here the thing, heavyweight in wrestling : 1 STIPE, NGANNOU, BLAYDE, now JONES and GANE. Seriously ... give a shoot to those who deserve it, BLAYDE and STIPE, FRANCIS see thrue the story telling now you dream of him 24/7😴🌍, when he gunna came back, so and so, Dana set him up...??? And still, 2 STIPE MIOCIC, 3 by the way GANE, SERGEI PAVLOVIC, Tai BAM BAM !!!! TUVASA, CURTIS BLAYDE, DERRECK LEWIS, JONE JONES the real ranking stuff like. A plus TARD 🌍
@@user-pb3hg4sb8z Tu sais parlé français ?? I don't think so...
@@user-pb3hg4sb8z Wher there's will, there's a way right ??
Crazy that the UFC cut both Moreno and Rodriguez.
They'd basically given up on Mexican fighters and it's almost happened without their help.
Luke is so quick to mention Jon’s personal problems. Just so salty.
This laughable! What happened to Valentina? Nothing. She had a close fight with a great grappler, that has size and strength! Such a ridiculous statement. Every great fighter is entitled of a close fight.
You do know that if you're on a Keto diet you hardly ever fart? True story. Just saying.
You do know my farts don't even stink dude? Shaddup
Maybe not. But you do. 😘
Is anyone concerned that Bo has 0 fights despite the narrative that he could be a champ in like 15 months. He seems super talented but he is already taking massive time off
