haha its because you will come again for the answers. Right before the fight and especially after the fight he will have an argument that he was right no matter what happens. He will say he told us so and he did, but he will make people believe as if he predicted it not just compared both possible outcomes. Its actually brilliant the way he talks and extremely intelligent.
So then is poirier another tune up fight? Or will people will be saying that afterwords, if he wins? I like poirier, Rate him as top 5 BUT, he’s not champion level, he’s just slightly off, Doesn’t have that edge that it takes, I would say Ferguson has it, I would say geathje doesn’t as he gets his face rearranged most fights, although he did fight well against Ferguson, there’s never been than crazy stand out match up like Conor has had over the years or khabib or Ferguson, poirier reminds me of Alvarez, he’s a good all round fighter but that “special” thing that’s needed to be champ is just not there, he’s brave and tough and has crazy heart but he gets hit, Conor rarely gets hit. Even when he does if you watch closely he rolls almost everything. Can’t wait for the fight.....all we can hope for is fireworks, think that’s what we’ll get.
@@orngdrnk Conor is known for going in hard early and Cowboy is known for taking a bit to warm up if you will and get into the groove. Conor puts thought into who he’s going up against that’s for sure. I’m not trying to take anything away from him if anything it’s a compliment
I mean yea, in hindsight its a tune up fight. But, in any other scenario if you look at who was active and who wasn't its pretty obvious whos ganna win. Activity matters against most opponents. You just cant replicate the same intensity of a real match and the timing, rhythm, and intensity of a real bout isn't something you can replicate by sparring. Listen to Uncle Chael and don't discredit cowboy, but Conor some credit himself.
Can't beleive how articulate and well spoken chael is and the way he explains and describes anything vibes perfectly with the way my brain works. Keep it up chael and I'll keep listening. Thankyou
@@aidengoulet2104 Nah Conor himself admitted he was eager to get the shot out and threw it with no restriction by accident, ring rust if you call it. Afterwards I'm pretty sure he said that even though he missed it he tried to knee but he hit with his hip moreso instead. Used this to get the clinch and work from there.
Chael is a beast at pumping out these videos. I love em though. It makes the viewer feel like we are right there with him, listening from across his seat.
Good analogy about fighters only having so many bullets in their gun. BJ Penn and Robbie Lawler are 2 guys off the top of my head who have been dry firing for sometime.
That is a myth told by people not understanding that the actual damage was done in the first few seconds as cowboy tried to shoot and was caught by Conner's thigh ...
Bro, I just rewatched, and that’s not true. No offense, but unless his nose and broken face decided to hang on, and keep from bleeding for a long time after the knee, then I’m sorry it’s incorrect. Are you just joking? Go watch if you have time. After the fight they replay the good angle and you can clearly see it’s caused by Conors shoulders and massive collar bone slamming repeatedly into cowboys face. Cowboy didn’t even start to look terrible until after they were finished clenching up and he stood back to gather himself. I just don’t see it but maybe I don’t know what the fuck I’m talking about. Not the first time
Dustin held his own against Khabib, and during the match I was on the fence if Khabib might actually lose. At no point in the Khabib/Conor match was Khabib in danger. That says enough for me. 🤷🏿♂️
Dustin is a better fighter in my opinion, but Conor's style is difficult for anyone who is primarily a striker. Conor is a guy who has a powerful left, counterpunching ability, fast movement, can box moving backwards and misses rarely. Gassing out Conor is an option only for wrestlers and grapplers. I pick Conor, even though I admit that Poirier is a better fighter.
I don’t see this fight going well for Dustin, idk why but I feel like it might be like Conor vs Eddie. Where Conor just controls the fight and does what he wants because of his insane distance control
Poirier has improved his boxing-handwise, but not so much defensively and he has a take it on the chin style. So he's all about the war and exchanges using his offense as defense. So this plays more into Conor's style and his ability to pick his shots.
I just can't figure out the room Chael shoots this video in. The wooden wall. The lighting. I'd love to know the particulars of this room and see it in full light.
Chael is so smart that I come here and I watch these videos but I literally can not hear anything that he’s presenting or sharing. There are different levels
I think I saw Chael get corrected by head phone, but don't seem to wear headphones. Maybe he has a hidden earwig.. Either way I'd like to hear more from the people behind the scenes!! I like when Chael talks to them, gives a sense of teamwork.
Dustin took a lot of damage in Hooker fight, the kind of damage that will catch up with you. Conor will not come in unprepared, he will be fresh and itching to prove he is a top contender. I would like to see Dustin win but I don't think he will. I really do hope I am wrong on this one.
Oh my god! You are too funny. We also can’t measure Conor’s stamina from that fight, where as Dustin can keep going, keep taking punches and keep giving it. I keep going back to that Hooker fight!! So good.
Yes a cowboy who was ranked 4 in the world at the time, came off a 3 fight winstreak over Mike Perry, Hernandez, Iaquinta only losing to Gaethje and Ferguson, got smushed by Conor worse than anyone ever in his career and went on to get ROBBED against Pettis who KO'd Wonderboy was beating Ferguson, and did well against Diaz, and just had a good fight with Niko Price who's a natural welterweight.
They both have improved over the last 6 years. I feel conor has better cardio then ever after going 9ish rounds with floyd, also he was training for a triathlon or something along those lines so his cardio will be better. Dustin’s boxing, footwork, fight iq, composure has all increased massively. Its a 45-55 fight for me I won’t be surprised if either guy wins, but im leaning to conor getting it done because i feel the fight will be on the feet the whole time and he has the advantage there.
Chael preaches it so smooth and unstable like hes up on the podium reading straight from the book of fight game to the people of the mma church. Preach on brother Chael
I have to agree with the Bad Guy on his assessment of Connor. He might still be in his prime. Connor looks in great shape and he hasnt really taken huge amounts of damage in his fights. He might be at his physical peak right now.
Cheal could talk about washing dishes as long as it's about a competition, and everyone would be drawn to his words the whole time lol He really has a gift, and I dont think he is doing much with it. His clips are mostly so interesting, as he engages the audience and often it feels like he is directly speaking to each person watching. He could have his own show on ESPN and be very successful, extremely entertaining almost like Stephan A Smith but a lot more realistic, natural and unforced excitement which S.Smith often forces to create and he does it well even when its not really there.
I offer you this: Conor runs over the division, takes the belt, maybe defend 155ibs one or two times, khabib comes back for the belt. its one of those things
So even though Dustin has great Jiu-Jitsu, he's done all his best work these past few years on his feet using his striking. He can either try and out strike McGregor which would be a hell of a task to pull off, or he can try and bring it to the ground meaning he'd be going against what made him a top class lightweight. Either way I think this match up favors Conor.......
Definitely agree it’s unique but feel like physical prime is around 21-27 and skill prime is probably towards the ends of your career mostly based off most overall training so overall I feel like most the majority of fighters prime is more like 28-34. Just speculating though
@@Paintsandpackages IF IF IF IFFFFFFFFFFFF Conor can do it in the first 3 rounds.... i have a bad feeling about it. Porier is going to fight the safest and smartest he has ever faught especially because he got knocked out first time and can happen again, so he's gonna have a game plan to circle away from the left and attack Conor's lead leg for first 2 rounds for sure.
The best MMA podcast, easily. Honestly when I was younger i was a fanatic, I'll take it these days I'm quite a casual, but I'd like to see Chael do more on other organisations to as they grow so I can keep up to date to know whose hot shit and I should be watching with the little free time I have now, because god damn he knows
Conor in 145 and vs Eddie i thought he moved differently than when he fought Cowboy, even though he didn't throw many punches, but the ones he threw didn't look Conor esk, makes me wonder if the muscle hes putting on is messing with his range of motion a bit, 145 he just looked fluent, so that for me will be the most interesting part of this fight, will the new body affect his movement, and cardio in later rounds, will it make him slower, mess with his timing vs i think the best striker at 155 besides himself. I get tingles thinking about this fight, because i see a straight war, fight of the year type fight!!
Yeah I remember watching that fight thinking Dustin was scared and he didn’t show any of his potential in that fight completely crumbled. He’s a lot better now but will see if he’s ready mentally this time.
One thing you gotta think is the mind games too, back then conor wasnt the big star he is today so his mind games played out a lot better and he was able to piss his opponents off, now it’s so expected that conor will do that, that it won’t really affect Dustin this time around
Man uncle chael strikes again... What was going against Connor going into the cowboy matchup? He was fighting another 55er who didn't want to cut weight. Fair fight. That connor wind 10 x out of 10. Dustin finishes him in 3.
How was his prime squandered? He was a two weight Division champion and since then has only lost to khabib while destroying Cowboy less than a year ago? What are you on about?
@@drake1896 I agree he hasn't fought as much as he could have, but he's still in his prime and this last year was no fault of his own. He will fight twice in 2020 which is normal fot a champion or top rated fighter.
Fanboys: Dustin has improved so much since Conner! Poirier: Goes on to NOT get a belt in two weight classes. Conner: Becomes first to hold belts in two weight classes. Starches a vet in under a min in a 3rd weight class. Boxed and landed more punches on the best defenses boxer in history vs his last 3 opponents . And went 4 rounds vs 3 min for Dustin against Kabob. Me: Yup, Dustin has I’m Improved a lot.
The fanboys saying that aren’t wrong, Dustins stand up is so pretty to watch now, but connors still better and probly has improved a lot himself. I’m taking Connor rd 4 tko
@Xion Collins Conor could honestly take Dustin down . People don’t realize how hard khabib had to work when Conor literally walked out into the middle of the cage and said , “shoot bitch let’s see how long it takes for my back to touch the ground “. And to Conor’s credit it took about 3 mins of khabib absolutely giving it everything he had and still not being able to get Conor down until he got him to the fence of which he threw exactly one strike in the entire round . Conor is not only the highest level striker in the top 10 at lightweight he’s honestly probably the best defensive wrestler in the top ten at lightweight . People forget Eddie had no problem taking down chandler , Conor literally stuffed and countered every takedown Eddie attempted to the point where Eddie completely abandoned his game plan , n stopped even attempting to press Conor into the cage n dirty box in the clinch because Conor was eating him alive from the inside
@@vinceventura4453 I would give credit to Conor but one cannot ignore his constant cheating throughout the Khabib fight. It stopped Khabib from advancing many positions that night. So I'm not willing to admit Khabib had to "work hard" for reasons that favour Conor.
There's only 4 things that are certain in life. 1. Taxes 2. Death 3. Chael making a point and IMMEDIATELY contradicting it himself 4. An undying love and adoration for Conor McGregor by Chael that is about 3 years past it's "sell by" date
@@markcredit6086 Cowboy is usually fairly durable unless he's going up against the more dangerous strikers, Justin, RDA, Jorge, Til, Tony etc... At least the fights I've seen over the years. It's not exactly just about who you beat, it's also how you beat them. Conor beat him faster than anyone by quite a bit..
Dustin's Boxing can be improved till the cows come home, It is nowhere near Conor's Level both Offensively and Defensively when it comes to Movement. 2nd Round KO.
Idk about that. Dustins movement is much improved. He doesn’t stand square and flat anymore and throw punches, he flows well between southpaw and orthodox very well now and is patient with his power strikes.
@@sethchristian3056 Conor's elusiveness has also been greatly improved since their last fight. Dustin was actually able to land on him a few times in the first fight. I think he'll land less this time around honestly
@@sethchristian3056 His movement is pretty much the same as back then. Biggest factor why he did better at 155 than at 145 is the weight cut. Of course he is improved skillwise aswell, but Conor is also improved since then. But back then Dustin had more UFC experience than Conor and Conor still made it look easy. And you can say that Conor was nobody back then. Dustin was his first ranked opponent.
@@sethchristian3056 dustins movement is great and it has improved a lot but Conor is probably the most free flowing fighter I’ve seen since Ali in the ring. Every movement he makes is so loose and relaxed and when u add that in with his distance control, he’s dangerous
@@sethchristian3056 jesus man your getting all the replies😂😂😂 Im not being smart but he can move anyway he wants Conor can move in and out at ridicoulous angles and hit him from there. I like Dustin, He has grown immensely since that last fight but even with his Power Shots... Conor doesnt get enough credit for his chin... He can take a smack. I just feel if Dustin thinks he can out strike him, he is in Trouble. I know u think diff my friend. We shall meet back here on Jan 24th😂
Lol "and let's just say that I'm right.. You can argue that, but let's just say that I'm right.." I'm going to use that in my next argument, thank you uncle chael
P head got stung with the left and the look on his face was overwhelm. He was not scared in that fight , mcgregor "his words" I let it ping! P head got pinged! This will be no different
I like Dustin, grew up less than 50 miles from his hometown, what worries me about him is all of the absolute wars he's been in. He can obviously take a punch but can he stay sharp enough to give them back.. War after war after war takes a real toll on your brain which takes away sharpness, speed, accuracy, etc. I truly he does derail the Conor hype train but I just don't see him getting it done. He's going to have to take him into really deep waters and catch him before he gets that second wind.
I think Dustin's wrestling has got better, but so has conners he did better agasint khabib then gathje, and gathje is supposed to be a high level wrestler. Dustin's striking and volume is better, but conner always has that one punch ko and timing , and I reckon he's probably better now then before power wise. As he's had alot of boxing specific Training, when he was Training to fight Floyd. I feel like it's goner be similar to last time,
I feel this is the biggest fight for porier. Its against McGregor in a rematch.. where stylistically he is suppose to be in this fight. Connor isn't going to be trying to wrestle with him. I feel the pressure will be on because of that. Because it's a fight that is going to be a fight at what he's best at. Same with conor.. two strikers. It should be fun. I feel conor will be the better sniper. I like porier.. but conor is a more crisp striker.
The cowboy fight was at 170? So McGregor was heavy and out of shape and hadn't fought in 500 something days then.? How long has it been since he had to make a weight cut to 150 and then preform worries me more than everything against him vs. 🤠 combined.

So then is poirier another tune up fight? Or will people will be saying that afterwords, if he wins?

Definitely agree it’s unique but feel like physical prime is around 21-27 and skill prime is probably towards the ends of your career mostly based off most overall training so overall I feel like most the majority of fighters prime is more like 28-34. Just speculating though
The rematch still won't be going to decision...
And that’s the exact reason why I’ll buy the ppv
Dustin has been SMOKED by 2 lefties. Conor and johnson. I have a feeling conor's left is just gonna find range naturally
@@Paintsandpackages IF IF IF IFFFFFFFFFFFF Conor can do it in the first 3 rounds.... i have a bad feeling about it. Porier is going to fight the safest and smartest he has ever faught especially because he got knocked out first time and can happen again, so he's gonna have a game plan to circle away from the left and attack Conor's lead leg for first 2 rounds for sure.
@@Waybackwhennn with conors stance it’s going to be hard for him to land clean leg kicks
Probably not, what's your prediction?
The problem for Dustin is Conor has a lot of tape to watch Conor is harder to pin point where and what he has mastered
The best MMA podcast, easily. Honestly when I was younger i was a fanatic, I'll take it these days I'm quite a casual, but I'd like to see Chael do more on other organisations to as they grow so I can keep up to date to know whose hot shit and I should be watching with the little free time I have now, because god damn he knows
Conor in 145 and vs Eddie i thought he moved differently than when he fought Cowboy, even though he didn't throw many punches, but the ones he threw didn't look Conor esk, makes me wonder if the muscle hes putting on is messing with his range of motion a bit, 145 he just looked fluent, so that for me will be the most interesting part of this fight, will the new body affect his movement, and cardio in later rounds, will it make him slower, mess with his timing vs i think the best striker at 155 besides himself. I get tingles thinking about this fight, because i see a straight war, fight of the year type fight!!
2:10
"You naturally, as you mature as a human being, get a strength that you didn't have to go earn"
These words give me strength.
The difference is that Conor’s inactivity (I don’t count whupping Cowboy who was on the way out) will lead to him not surviving two rounds.
Yeah I remember watching that fight thinking Dustin was scared and he didn’t show any of his potential in that fight completely crumbled. He’s a lot better now but will see if he’s ready mentally this time.
I love Uncle Chael!
Let’s say I’m right -every time 🤷♂️💯😎
Chael "It's One of Those Things" Sonnen.
I tell you these things because...
One thing you gotta think is the mind games too, back then conor wasnt the big star he is today so his mind games played out a lot better and he was able to piss his opponents off, now it’s so expected that conor will do that, that it won’t really affect Dustin this time around
Man uncle chael strikes again... What was going against Connor going into the cowboy matchup? He was fighting another 55er who didn't want to cut weight. Fair fight. That connor wind 10 x out of 10. Dustin finishes him in 3.
Disagree. McGregor squandered his prime with inactivity. Like both Diaz brothers.
We'll see
Conor wanted to fight many time this year
How was his prime squandered? He was a two weight Division champion and since then has only lost to khabib while destroying Cowboy less than a year ago? What are you on about?
@@davidphillips1845 2 fights in about three years is not many
@@drake1896 I agree he hasn't fought as much as he could have, but he's still in his prime and this last year was no fault of his own. He will fight twice in 2020 which is normal fot a champion or top rated fighter.
It’s come to my attention that almost everything is and can and should be One of those Things.
Fanboys: Dustin has improved so much since Conner!
Poirier: Goes on to NOT get a belt in two weight classes.
Conner: Becomes first to hold belts in two weight classes.
Starches a vet in under a min in a 3rd weight class.
Boxed and landed more punches on the best defenses boxer in history vs his last 3 opponents .
And went 4 rounds vs 3 min for Dustin against Kabob.
Me: Yup, Dustin has I’m Improved a lot.
The fanboys saying that aren’t wrong, Dustins stand up is so pretty to watch now, but connors still better and probly has improved a lot himself. I’m taking Connor rd 4 tko
@Xion Collins Conor could honestly take Dustin down . People don’t realize how hard khabib had to work when Conor literally walked out into the middle of the cage and said , “shoot bitch let’s see how long it takes for my back to touch the ground “. And to Conor’s credit it took about 3 mins of khabib absolutely giving it everything he had and still not being able to get Conor down until he got him to the fence of which he threw exactly one strike in the entire round . Conor is not only the highest level striker in the top 10 at lightweight he’s honestly probably the best defensive wrestler in the top ten at lightweight . People forget Eddie had no problem taking down chandler , Conor literally stuffed and countered every takedown Eddie attempted to the point where Eddie completely abandoned his game plan , n stopped even attempting to press Conor into the cage n dirty box in the clinch because Conor was eating him alive from the inside
@@vinceventura4453 I would give credit to Conor but one cannot ignore his constant cheating throughout the Khabib fight. It stopped Khabib from advancing many positions that night. So I'm not willing to admit Khabib had to "work hard" for reasons that favour Conor.
There's only 4 things that are certain in life.
1. Taxes
2. Death
3. Chael making a point and IMMEDIATELY contradicting it himself
4. An undying love and adoration for Conor McGregor by Chael that is about 3 years past it's "sell by" date
As long as Dustin's chin holds up, I see him winning.
Put the meth down.
Conor beat up an old drunken cowboy hes way over rated he may just get tuned up
@@markcredit6086 Cowboy is usually fairly durable unless he's going up against the more dangerous strikers, Justin, RDA, Jorge, Til, Tony etc... At least the fights I've seen over the years. It's not exactly just about who you beat, it's also how you beat them. Conor beat him faster than anyone by quite a bit..
@@markcredit6086 you saying McGregor isn’t a top fighter ?
No chance Dustin wins sorry
Dustin's Boxing can be improved till the cows come home, It is nowhere near Conor's Level both Offensively and Defensively when it comes to Movement. 2nd Round KO.
Idk about that. Dustins movement is much improved. He doesn’t stand square and flat anymore and throw punches, he flows well between southpaw and orthodox very well now and is patient with his power strikes.
@@sethchristian3056 Conor's elusiveness has also been greatly improved since their last fight. Dustin was actually able to land on him a few times in the first fight. I think he'll land less this time around honestly
@@sethchristian3056 His movement is pretty much the same as back then. Biggest factor why he did better at 155 than at 145 is the weight cut. Of course he is improved skillwise aswell, but Conor is also improved since then. But back then Dustin had more UFC experience than Conor and Conor still made it look easy. And you can say that Conor was nobody back then. Dustin was his first ranked opponent.
@@sethchristian3056 dustins movement is great and it has improved a lot but Conor is probably the most free flowing fighter I’ve seen since Ali in the ring. Every movement he makes is so loose and relaxed and when u add that in with his distance control, he’s dangerous
@@sethchristian3056 jesus man your getting all the replies😂😂😂 Im not being smart but he can move anyway he wants Conor can move in and out at ridicoulous angles and hit him from there. I like Dustin, He has grown immensely since that last fight but even with his Power Shots... Conor doesnt get enough credit for his chin... He can take a smack. I just feel if Dustin thinks he can out strike him, he is in Trouble. I know u think diff my friend. We shall meet back here on Jan 24th😂
Chael . You the man
Really excited for this fight, Dustin has improved more than Conor has.
Yup definitely harder fights
Dustin will dive same as Cowboy
you are a God. thank you for your due diligences man
This bad guy need to be in museum not outside
Chael is Toby Maguare of MMA he's gone but he's always there taking everything from everybody without even doing anything
Lol "and let's just say that I'm right.. You can argue that, but let's just say that I'm right.." I'm going to use that in my next argument, thank you uncle chael
P head got stung with the left and the look on his face was overwhelm. He was not scared in that fight , mcgregor "his words" I let it ping! P head got pinged! This will be no different
Jesus I forgot about uncle Chael. It is good to be back!
I like Dustin, grew up less than 50 miles from his hometown, what worries me about him is all of the absolute wars he's been in. He can obviously take a punch but can he stay sharp enough to give them back.. War after war after war takes a real toll on your brain which takes away sharpness, speed, accuracy, etc. I truly he does derail the Conor hype train but I just don't see him getting it done. He's going to have to take him into really deep waters and catch him before he gets that second wind.
Wow I needed it chael ... , thought you were teeing up nicely for it at the end 😅 “ Just how good....is Conor Mcgregor “
Keep up the short videos. Great for my ADHD. 👍
I wanna do UA-cam like this... Pushing out 5+ videos everyday..amd being in the Face of the Viewer all the time
I want Dustin to win, but I don't see how he beats Conor. Not likely he will out strike him. Maybe a submission, but not sure he could take him down.
I think Dustin's wrestling has got better, but so has conners he did better agasint khabib then gathje, and gathje is supposed to be a high level wrestler. Dustin's striking and volume is better, but conner always has that one punch ko and timing , and I reckon he's probably better now then before power wise. As he's had alot of boxing specific Training, when he was Training to fight Floyd. I feel like it's goner be similar to last time,
Over the past 6 years DP has fought more than Conor and has improved more than Conor has in that time period. We will see if that’s enough or not.
McGregor has it no doubt
Chael: Conor just needs to stay alive and he’ll get better.
Me: Okay great.
All body strikes should count and THEY WILL
I feel this is the biggest fight for porier. Its against McGregor in a rematch.. where stylistically he is suppose to be in this fight. Connor isn't going to be trying to wrestle with him. I feel the pressure will be on because of that. Because it's a fight that is going to be a fight at what he's best at. Same with conor.. two strikers. It should be fun. I feel conor will be the better sniper. I like porier.. but conor is a more crisp striker.
With Conors new found lifestyle, I don't see him ever being the same fighter he was before . I see Dustin taking this fight by decision.
You do realize Conor's been super rich and famous for a long time now right? This is nothing new to him.
Hello uncle Chael, I think it would be awesome a fight between you and Belford
The cowboy fight was at 170? So McGregor was heavy and out of shape and hadn't fought in 500 something days then.? How long has it been since he had to make a weight cut to 150 and then preform worries me more than everything against him vs. 🤠 combined.
Take a shot when he says “I bring this to you”
