"Barely promoted themselves" Ah yes the UFC shill channel is back at it again with the narrative 💀 apparently it is the fighters' job to "promote themselves" and not the PROMOTION
It could also be the language barrier. To many fans, Ilia seems stoic and a man of few words. To the point and precise. But Spanish speakers have described his speaking cadence and choice of words to that one a young McGregor, someone who has witty trash talk. So when someone is speaking in their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th language, their personality cant really shine.
Robbie Lawler being here does make me smile, mainly because in my UFC 5 career mode he was my first fight in the UFC and he immediately started talking shit to me 😂😂
Well, I love me some Miocic, but I wouldn't exactly call him a "10 top big MMA star"... had they listed a few honorable mentions, then yes he would have probably been given a shout out, but IMO, everyone on this list is indeed a bigger star than "Lil' Big Cro Cop 2.0" (not being a native English speaker, it was a nightmare to try to understand what he is saying, and from what I've gathered even some native speakers have trouble understand him, which doesn't really help)
Plus fedor was extremely promoted by the organization and vladimir putin interviewed him and he was promoted by Vladimir and news chs kept interviewing him in russia . And he russia golden boy which the west and japan felt like he was mystical @@des0163
@@des0163I only remember one commercial and it was when his brother fought Mirko Crocop and Fedor was angry his brother god koed, he even sweared few words on Crocop. That's it. :D
Robbie may be a man of few words, but my favorite Robbie line will always be him recounting his fight with Rory and saying that’s his favorite fight because of how violent and how much he had to push himself in that fight.
I love the Diaz brothers they are the perfect example of anyone can be a fighter no matter your past and how you grew up now they can give back to the community and show kids no matter where u are and from u can become a ufc star
It is interesting how Nate had Nick and his career to look to to help see dos and donts and learn from. Nate kinda learned to enjoy media and spotlight in his own way somehow and spin it to help succeed, see the positives in it and still be himself and not compromise or focus on anything but fighting and "putting on a good show."
You nailed it. This is why promoters like Don King get paid the big bucks. I remember when Tyson didn't have much to say, then complained about his pay and turned around to promote himself. These non-shit-talkers are my favorite fighters. They train to be the best and you can count on them to get shit done.
Yup, Legendary Dass Brothers. So legendary that they are struggling to make money now. Hardcore fans aren't the ones who usually pay the bills, are they?
@@hunterkenway6212what makes you think they are struggling lol have you done a little research to see how much Nate has made off of his last several fights?
@@cathleenmoore710 It's the fact that he still has to do those embarrassing fights with Jake Paul & now a retired Masvidal just to take L's unlike others who have successful businesses, movies or social media channels setup to earn proves my point. For once stop defending these kinds of delusional people & encourage them to promote themselves properly in all business ventures in life.
Rory and Robbie are the best examples of fighters who don't fight for the fame or money but rather because this is their lives. Their 2nd fight together is arguably one of the best fights that have ever been recorded.
Lawler doesnt need to be anything but himself. Guy's a warrior and literally left it all in the cage everytime. Real fans recognize real fighters and their effort to win and be the best.
The Robbie Lawler interview where he said "im not just taking his neck..... Im taking his soul" is some of the coldest stuff ever. He ment that. And he was talking about a possible fight with Connor McGregor.
To understand the Crocop/Vanderlei staredown, you have to understand the wake of destruction Vanderlei had behind him at the time, he was crushing everyone in devastating fashion, and Crocop didn't care about any of that, got in Vanderlei's face and let him know this wasn't gonna be a walk in the park... Legend.
2:48 I audibly groaned in disgusting when I realized Frankie was being interviewed by Brandon Schlub. The irony of him being in a video about fighters being humble is staggering.
#15 baby. I just want to say that Mr Chris w is definitely suffering from some issues mentally when it comes to his recent so called victory and I'm happy to be the number 15, on here hope all is well guys let's keep MMA growing and going well, let's go baby
Fedor should have been number 1 and nick shouldn’t even be on the list because he definitely promotes himself when he bitches after loses and he doesn’t stop bitching
Mark Hunt leading the class action lawsuit against the UFC is even more silly when you learn that at one point he was offered a payday to be let out of his contract. Like, not only did you like the contract enough to sign it, but they couldn't pay you to get out of it. crazy
Hunt didn't lead the class action lawsuit against the UFC. He did lead a suit for a totally different reason. Maybe if you pay attention to the facts, you'll be the one to avoid arriving at "silly" notions.
AFTER DA ROBBIE LAWLER FIGHT DEFINITELY NICK AIN'T GOT IT LIKE HE USED TO BE , SO THAT PERFORMANCE AGAINST LAWLER NICK AIN'T GOT IT ESPECIALLY WHEN HE GAVE UP . DEFINITELY WON'T BE LIKE BEFORE . SAY NO MORE .
Stipe does so little press that they forgot to put him on the list
I think because he did the Modelo commercials he was disqualified from the list. Like they explained in the beginning of the video
He had like 4 commercials
The stockton slap was one of the greatest promotions lol
for real the Diaz's always put on a show that's the best sort of promotion.

3:45 in what world do people think Bo Nickel is a good talker/self promoter. Guy just sounds like any footballer high-school in a cheesy USA movie
I can't remember his fights but I know his name, so he must be doing a decent job with promotion.

Fedor actually does know English, he just doesn't speak it in the media.
Fedor has to be top 5 at least

One of my favorites from robbie, he was being asked about a possible McGregor fight "if I hurt him I'm not taking his neck......I'm taking his soul" 😂
A list of a lot of my all time favorite fighters. Truly the stoic quiet ones that just go out there and let their fighting do the talking.
Dan Henderson is a terrifying man.
How relaxed he always seemed made him more terrifying.
For me Nick Diaz is like real life Stone Cold. Just a absolute rebel who defy any type of authority and i just love him for that.
Honorable mentions:
Joe Lauzon
Jim Miller

How is Stipe Miocic not on this list. I think ALL mma media doesn't like him or respect him.
I was binge watching all y'all's videos...again, and then this new one just popped up! Noice!
Saying Hunt "walked off home" makes me picture him just walking into the ocean like godzilla in the direction of hawaii.
Man Cro Cop is a fkn legend. Such a cool dude and an absolute Destroyer at the same time
I love the Diaz brothers they are the perfect example of anyone can be a fighter no matter your past and how you grew up now they can give back to the community and show kids no matter where u are and from u can become a ufc star

Hendricks: good on you for keeping true to your wrestling roots
Gegard Mousasi should be on the list.

Career advice from Branson Schwab is Gringo Papi level hilarious
Moral of the story - it happens organically lol
3:56 his T shirt sponsor is upside down. 😂

The Robbie Lawler interview where he said "im not just taking his neck..... Im taking his soul" is some of the coldest stuff ever. He ment that. And he was talking about a possible fight with Connor McGregor.
That Sean comment got me laughing my bollox off
Sorry but Fedor can definitely speak English
I honestly forgot Fedor didn't speak English. I always just thought he just never spoke and preferred to stay silent.
3:55 his PEDs got him fighting gigs!
To understand the Crocop/Vanderlei staredown, you have to understand the wake of destruction Vanderlei had behind him at the time, he was crushing everyone in devastating fashion, and Crocop didn't care about any of that, got in Vanderlei's face and let him know this wasn't gonna be a walk in the park... Legend.
anyone else go right to robbie lawlers retirment clip?
Crazy how Dana looks far younger now with a shaved head than he did decades ago prior to shaving it
I will always believe Lawler when he said he'd have taken Conor's soul in that interview.
14:07 when you fart and everyone is trying to figure out who did it….
2:48 I audibly groaned in disgusting when I realized Frankie was being interviewed by Brandon Schlub. The irony of him being in a video about fighters being humble is staggering.

Note how all of these guys are the old guard, the OGs
12:43 that's just what I thought at that same moment, lol
Lawler’s neck is a weapon.
He could probably kill 90% of humans with a single head butt.
Mirko is a legend
Where's Stipe??
I’m a recent MMA fan but I’ve known about Cain since 2019 and this is the first time I’m hearing him speak. Nuts. Goated dude tho
Stipe deserves a spot in the top 5 here.
Without even watching yet I’m hoping Cro Cop is in this
Ya'll forgot Tony Ferguson

Werdum went there 3 months early. That decision literally won him the fight. Cain gassed,
Fedor should have been number 1 and nick shouldn’t even be on the list because he definitely promotes himself when he bitches after loses and he doesn’t stop bitching
I would strongly argue that Cro Cop and Fedor are bigger stars than Diaz and Lawler and did less for promotion
Tbh I love the fighters who don't run their mouths like tryhards.
Unless they're hilarious of course

Robbie is one of the nicest athletes I’ve ever met.

Yet we all know and love all 10 of them, makes you wonder :P
Wasent they signed to a promotion lool
Yeah Nick is fucking crazy that reporter asked a normal question and he just went off for no reason
I have never seen Justin Gaethje promote himself 🤔
