2 mythical fighters go at it, Nose breathing DDP challenges Shredded D'Sean Strickland
Shredded d'sean strickland the next evolution 😅
Gyno sean..post usada
bahaha pretty much
@@slee2695- It isn't an inhumane feat to become shredded.
Have you seen gyno on him?
@@slee2695 Ya cant say that, sean is just pure skill.
These countdowns should be submitted for Emmy consideration. The cinematography is insanely good. For example, how they introduce Sean Strickland is absolutely elite.
I agree but filmography means something else
@@joshlin50ja sorry english not my first language.
I am very impressed by the intro as well. Agreed
Fact!
Editing *
Strickland and Dricus made me question everything I ever knew about sports with their last fights so I’m not even gonna try with this one.
Dricus will win easily
Delusional. Thats what everyone said anout Izzy too
It’s Dricus time 🎉🎉🎉
I wasn’t that surprised by Dricus winning over Whittaker but Sean yes but I should had known in putting cash on him over Adesanya especially the mental state with the help of MMA Guru
Dricus my bru
I loved the “D’Sean Strickland” name tag on his locker at Xtreme Couture
I'm so hyped for this one... Watching from Africa Zimbabwe 🇿🇼🇿🇦
Happy this episode highlighted Sean's Coach Nicksic. He was on point cornering that Izzy fight.
These embedded series are the reason why ufc is at the top of the food chain when it comes to combat sports. Top notch promotion of the less known fighters and amazing footage of the main card fighters.
Strickland Vs Dricus could end up being a banger, one of the best fights of the year. I hope so
I think it's what you said or Dricus steamrolls Sean
It will be as long as Sean shows up and doesn't give one of his pre-adesanya performances
Agree. This fight os going to be something else. Their styles make such good fights. Way better than another boring Izzy fight
@@marcelomachado7319 This fight would be better if it is between Style Bender n Dricus, Sean is boring though
@@RobotRegor Dricus misses his shot, and gets 1-2'd by Strickland. Adesanya is harder to hit than Dricus.
Love Strickland attitude he really does it for us fans and that's from us over the pond🏴🇬🇧
These two both have unique styles that are conflicting in nature. I predict one hell of a battle.
Such a great match that saves the whole card.
yeah this and arnold allen the only other good fight on the card
They're doing them dirty, the card is almost unwatchable without the main event. It's a below average Fight Night without the title fight.
Lol we have the Canadian Mike Malott vs Magny, Chris Curtis stricklands best friend , Arnold Allen, and a solid women title fight and that Main event banger it’s a GOOD Cart.
@@JulioEuropePharmaVendor this card was doable before with Jan and rakic dom and Carlos now it’s just a unwatchable fuck fest outside of three fights
Canada always gets weak cards even when it was GSP, the rest of the card wouldnt be that good
This was well put together. Somebody did their thing
You see that clever editing to hide that snoozefest decision? Can't blame them.
I just know you can't fight @@RIVALContentJammerz
Iii😊😅@@RIVALContentJammerz
Hearing my music on a UFC vid is nuts lol
Name of the song brother ?
Congrats buddy
song's great - good work man :)
So, Dricus went into that Robert Whittaker fight with a broke foot.
I did not know that.
That much more impressive.
This is a fucking movie. Love both guys, but i'm rooting for D'Sean, let's go!
Sean is holding the UFC on his back at this point. Unbelievable year for the guy.
Bring it home, Dricus.
Even though Dricus Du Plesis is a real threat, people seem to still be underrating Sean Strickland's defence and strength.
They are both great and both could easily kick the SH💩 T out of Adesanya ❤
I think Sean may be faster compared to Dricus
@@giffysstiffy8874giffytuck nah dricus style is a bad match against izzy he would get put out or tip tapped to a ud for 5 rounds
@@passivepuppy52 HELL NO...BOTH would beat him Adesanya, Strickland already DID
And wrestling and jiu jitsu. If it gets to the ground in strenuous grappling situations, I think most people would be surprised but Sean likes to defend and stand as quickly as possible. His ground game is not even acknowledged and it’s something I think we are going to see with this fight.
Sean saying yessir to his coach gave me chills. He was so ready to be champion
yeah i was thinking great coach and great student
Sean is way better than I thought he’s so patient and establishes his jab so well and maintains momentum throughout the whole fight
The defense! His defense against izzy was the best I've seen in mma
@@jwhitaker84This 👆… Amazing he didn’t take damage from Izzy in 5 rounds… He saw everything… Bro was in his zone for sure…
I watched his highlights recently and I was just so impressed with his ability to look like he was fighting the same fight no matter the opponent, yes some people forced him to go for some takedowns and maybe swing a little extra, but overall it looks like the same fight every time, impressive.!
Dricus don’t care. Dricus is gonna keep going forward!
I told everybody anderson silva is better than adesanya. Prime silva would put adesanya to shame.
SA is a tough place that creates tough people. Dricus is extremely tough and persistent , and I believe he will bring it home!
sooooo tough for all the settlers and colonizers of africa LMAO. dude is brit whose family took over africa back in the day you can even hear it in his voice.
@@amaterasu4186Are you equally upset by Cormier claiming the US? Racist.
@@03Grunt-arrino i mean a very very large majority of americans are racist and the govt system is racially unequal so
@@amaterasu4186lol. Okay.
How about we all have a right to live wherever we want? Let’s move on from “racial homelands.”
Let's take a moment to thank whoever puts these UFC Promos together! The editors do an amazing job in building up the countdown that most certainly won't be a letdown🤜💪💥
Visually outstanding? Yes. But some of the song choices are pretty gay. They should use heavier songs like the days of old.
@@pandemicwarfare4288yeah the music is weak…
The country music they played during Sean was good.
The country music they played during Sean was good.
They could improve their music choices
I think people are still grossly underestimating Sean. Let's go Strickland 💪
yea ok😂
He's the favourite going into the fight and most UFC fighters have picked him to win. Not sure what you're on about.
@steventheron3217 I simply said I think people are still grossly underestimating him. That is all. And I'm obviously not talking about the ones who pick him to win.
@@williamcaldwell9863 He's the betting favourite on all platforms, but okay.
@@williamcaldwell9863 you can say the same thing about DDP
“Every man needs a Glock” -Sean Strickland
Sean’s locker saying D’Sean had me dying lol
It’s actually a big shame they cut The MMA Guru in this countdown….
Nobody wants to see that troll
would've been nice
They did a "background check" and changed their minds
Cut him from what?
Nah, fatboy needed humbling
Sean vs izzy was the greatest upset of all time. Only no one was upset.
“I’m African, but I ain’t no brother of yours son.”-Du Plessis
"My Ninja!"
"What racial undertones...?"
@@sallgoodman2323 The same word you people tell black folk is "just a word" but turn into social justice warriors when it's said to one of your own? Hilarious.
@Bia67- Not all agree with using that word, try not to be ignorant, God bless
@@Obiodum_ LOL all the racist mma fans really got their panties in a bunch crying about race when izzy said something duplessi wouldnt dare say
Sounds so apartheid...
20:22 Shout out to TheWeasle. Your commentary was included on an official UFC video. You made it!
Everybody's rooting for Dricus. But I will be backing my boy Strickland. Go Sean!
What internet have you been on? Strickland has a much larger support and fan base lol
not sure everyone is.. some ppl have switched up cuz its been proven that Sean can dish it out but can't take it, so he lost a few fans off of that but i think majority of the fans are rooting for Sean
@DynastyIcon
yeah well, these weren't real fans to begin with, it's more like the trash that sorts itself out.
ddp talking all that shit about how sean got abused as a child shows how little class this guy has.
he’s getting kod. pin this 📍
Dricus lost round to Derek Brunson
The First Real African champ to bring the belt to Africa! cant wait 🇿🇦🔥
😂😂😂
What are you smoking? Ngannou rings any bell?
@@JasTheKariol oh pls these are people who don't even live in Africa anymore.
Izzy is a New Zealander he was trained in NZ, grew up in NZ but wants to pretend his success is from Nigeria. His just doing it because its trendy to say you come from struggle and he doesn't want to admit he grew up in a privileged country.
DDP is the real AFRICAN who is still in Africa and represents us!
@@JasTheKariolblacks talking about the past, shocker 🙄😴
JUSTICE FOR GURU
1:20 and he introduces him as De-Sean Strickland, I love this guy.
They got my boy Strickland buckin that AK for the opening credits 🔥
I'm a South African and naturally I'll be rooting for Dricus, but I do like Shaun. This is going to be a banger. The South Africans are waking up super early Sunday morning for this one.
I pray there isn't loadshedding this weekend!
Looking forward to see Du Plusiss getting his hand raised and becoming the first SA UFC champion.
Sean Strickland is bigger and stronger than Whittaker, plus Sean has an excellent defence which makes him hard to get hit.
He improved drastically after losing to Alex Perreira.
This is going to be a good fight for the fans. I hope its a 5 round banger
First REAL African champion 🔥🔥🔥
Whenever I see that still-frame of Sean Strickland punching with his mouth open 🤣
Mannnn I swear I been through 100s of these and every single time I'm just mesmerised by how well these are edited
Man some of these UFC moments can bring you close to tears!
They included TheWeasle in this but didn’t include MMA Guru… 😂 no one tell him
I sent two emails already👌
You don't have to be a fighter..you only need the courage and a reason.
I hope Sean puts on a clinic of crisp striking and picks dricus apart' but it's all up in the air that's why we tune in. I love these countdowns goosebumps all the way,
Go Sean Strickland it's gonna be a tough one ✊
Ohhh can't wait! Dricus du Plessis....Kick Ass Broer ! Greetings from The Netherlands💪🙏
Dricus is an amazing challenger. His record is all domination. It will be nice to see how he does when he faces adversity. That will be a new feeling to him if Sean shows up mentally and physically ready. It will be a great match! I'm team Sean on this one. 💯
I've got a feeling Dricus does whatever he wants to him with grappling, I think Sean is the perfect victim for Dricus' style
@@cassanateli Every single comment about Sean's grappling is that he's better at grappling than he is at striking. So yeah... calling bs on that
As crazy as Sean may be in interviews, I don't think there is a fighter in the UFC who enjoys fighting more than him. He'll definitely show up mentally, this is truly his world. DDP is a savage and may win this, but Sean won't make it easy.
I agree and see him struggle against wrestlers. Granted he was at 170 so let's see but I like to eat my words and Believe fighters can evolve with age and consistency.@@breakingbrad2129
Sean goes to sleep in the 3rd round. DDP is the real deal.
GURÚ NO WHERE TO BE FOUND
BACKING OUR BOY! 🇿🇦
LFG!
Most American thing Ive ever heard: "This is the, uh...most American gun, AK-47"
Man I want both of them to be champions at the same time
Swinging both ways won’t get you anywhere in life.
@@Joker-yh2xg dam bro, why you being so direct lmaooooo
limiting yourself to only see black and white won't get you anywhere in life where it matters. @@Joker-yh2xg
I'm sure if Jared was fighting either one you wouldn't feel that way though.
@@Obiodum_🎯 🎯
Can't wait to see Sean's 1st title defence against Dricus Du Plessis who is an absolute monster. Dricus has the mental edge but only time will tell who comes out victorious.
You wrote a lot but said absolutely nothing
got to love Dricus, he called he octagon a hexagon ....
@@steveb6718well Octagon is a UFC thing, EFC is a hexagon.
you think ddp has the mental edge? sean dgaf and been in there with dudes like pereira. if anything ddp seems like hes probably a bit bigger.
@@beegzz6326wtf do you mean sean doesn't give a fuck? Of course he does. He lost his shit and started crying.
Sean Strickland in just his fight shorts and boots popping off rounds in the desert is the most Sean Strickland shit I can think of.
Cant wait. I had to be in toronto for this one 😎
Crazy that TheWeasel made it into a UFC Countdown!
Guru thought he was the chosen one and then gets snubbed while his rival gets in lmao
@@reyhaze5044hahaha yeah TheWeasel pulling through rn
Where is the timestamp?
@@Higgs-Boson 9:28 20:22
They just bleeping out everything Sean Strickland says 🤣🤣🤣
Yes, Sean Strickland has an undisciplined mouth.
That's what happens when an individual has a low level education and limited vocabulary. Every other word said is vulgar.
Was looking forward to The MMA Guru interview… he really is much more than an internet troll
Hes a troll
He’s really not
DO NOT REDEEM SIR!
Not really
Nah, he's a troll.
Great editing on the Adeysanya -DDP encounter in the ring lmaoo... I remember some very different words being trown to DDP lol. Love
Sean is just a total fighter. Loves being in the cage and throwing hands, I admire it
Dricus would be good in Hollywood playing villain roles. He has the look, build, and voice for a bond villain
I know what you mean but it's kinda funny how everything from a British accent to a South African accent is reserved for bad guys in Hollywood 😂
@@TheRealStevovo are you being sarcastic and playing the social justice warrior card because yes, I do think british accents do the best in villain roles so SUCK IT
@@Tkenny35 Just observing that us South Africans will always be the bad guys no matter lol. How did Jean-Claude Van Damme get away with it?
🇺🇸 Let's go Sean Strickland 🇺🇸
The shawn segment at the start was lowkey fire
Strickland is a calculated maniac in the octagon. It's going to be a good fight.
lesss go Strickland 🔥gotta get that first defence
Let's go Dricus🇿🇦
Strickland is the Bob Ross of the UFC. His canvas is the enemys body. A happy little hematoma here and there...
Sean is gonna pull the upset once again lets FCKING Go!
he is the favourite
@@1fishbrain it’s pretty equal could literally change any hour
We need a fresh metaphor, Sean... 18:31
"He was playin' tick-tac-toe and I was playing Battleship... or he was playing solitaire and I was playing Stratego."
How about - "I was playing fighting and he was playing touch butt with that dork in the park"
He was playing rachet and clank i was playing call of duty
Fuckn hell these countdowns are so sick
so epic
8:18 Adasanya noob trying the Undertaker entrance was funny AF 😂😂
Why tf the "Dad sh1t" insult doesn't show up. I'm waiting for it for 46 minutes 😂
As a South African I was so looking forward to a Stylebende vs Du Plessis match up, I feel robbed. HOWEVER the way Strickland dominated and started yelling at Izzie during that previous fight, it was a wonder to see. I wanna see who's gonna be on top between these two
Hypedddddddd. First card of 2024. Let's goooo
Virg
Second card
Sean and Driscus have different mindsets, Sean already achieved everything he ever dreamed of, Driscus wants to go in history as the greatest. I think only thing that motivates Sean at this point is his fans and making them proud.
I like both fighters and their personalities, it will be a great battle, may the best man win.
Strickland became my favourite fighter in Sydney. absolute champ
Idk who to support this time. Im love both the men. 🎉
Always respect a champnthats humble and shows a respect to his opponent
Too bad we don't have any right now
LET'S GO CHAMP! Sean 2024!!! It's gonna be a banger fight whoever wins.
I like that shot of Dricus at the Voortrekker monument
Let’s go Sean!!!
He calls him by his real name, DeSean at 1:22
When the UFC uses your audio from your channel you've made it. Congrats to The Weasel!
This video is so good edited, so fucking good. Good job to production.
I appreciate the UFC production team highlighted Eric Nicksick.
He read Izzy like a book.
And Sean understand what needed to be done
Let’s go Sean
Strickland is NOT the anti-hero... he is literally THE hero America needs in this sport.. shit he is what the world NEEDS
Jesus said Before Abraham was I am. John 8 58 he shall save his people from their sins . Matthew 1 21. for thou wast slain and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred and tongue and people and nation. Revelation 5 9 . I met God at the cross when Jesus saved me. I'm washed in the blood of the Lamb . Any one say different is a heretic . Jesus said John indeed baptized with water but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Acts 11 16 on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 10 45 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Titus 3 6 washed us from our sins in his own blood. Revelation 1 5 we have now received the atonement. Romans 5 11 it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul . Leviticus 17 11. Come to Calvarys Holy Mountain, Rock of Ages, In The Cross old hymns tell it like it is
the director, editors, camera people, narrator, ... you are amazing!
Strictly talking about Dricus, Dricus has been a lifelong martial artist. Started Judo at the age of 5 and then went on to compete at the national level becoming the national Judo champion. He wanted to get away from the gi competition so first tried wrestling and then became a kickboxer where he went on to become a 30-0 Kickboxing champion. He also is a former Rugby player like Volk. He went to EFC first for his first MMA promotion and then became a double champion in EFC. He then moved on to Polish promotion called KSW and became the champion in KSW before getting into UFC where he has not lost a single fight since his debut. As a matter of fact, last time he lost was in 2018. He has beaten several UFC ranked opponents. Not many people know, he competes in elite level BJJ competitions. He faced the entire Gracier Barra BJJ team and it was 1 vs all of the team. He went one by one through the entire Gracie Barra BJJ team and submitted each and everyone one of them.
The glazing
@@whotfisleo WTF are you smoking? Must be a Strickland shill. I just wrote facts. Who is glazing here?
Darren Till rocked him.
@@patoloquend0 LOL Dricus finished him and that is all that matters. Dricus landed something like 60 unanswered punches in round one and the fight was not stopped.
@@patoloquend0 and dricus is fighting for the belt, wheres Till?
I hope Sean has been working on ground game and submissions...because if I was Dricus, I wouldn't keep it standing with Sean's reach advantage... I would take it to the mats to utilize my compact strength advantage for ground & pound and wrestling for submission...
The both have the same reach
@@steventheron3217They’re both listed at 76 but Sean’s arms look a bit longer. But he’s also a master of defense and distance, and throws fast straight shots, while DDP throws much slower hooks
I think Strickland has the best attitude in a champ in a long time "Am I gonna win, I don't Know." No delusions just truth! Him spewing forth what a lot of us want to say about how the world is going is admirable. His fighting name should be Sean"the painful truth" Strickland.
Haven’t been interested in watching a ufc paper view for a few years. Watched a Strickland interview, renewed my interest in ufc. Sports world need more Strickland, no filter love it.
Team strickland. Let's fucking go.💯
Weasel making an appearance is golden
ya I hear that lol
I really like both these guys so I don't mind who wins aslong as it's a good fight!
Cant believe they didnt show them fighting in the middle of the event, thats the best part
Lets keep in the states strickland 🐐🇺🇸🦅
Love sean but ddp will eat him
Dricus will win‼️Mark my words 😊
Dricus legit killed Soldic, Perez and a few more from a small left hook. Imagine when Strickland gets his Poatan PTSD back
DDP within 3 minutes
@@adamgaude5922Darren Till almost KOs him. Nothing is certain in this sport.
You guys all said the same damn thing about Izzy....saying Sean didn't stand a chance.....most of you didn't even want Sean to get a title shot....anything can happen in this sport
They knew what they were doing throwing the "real African champ" clip in there
Im so excited for this one 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Im so happy for Sean....I hope he reigns champion for awhile
I'm dead did Sean really said the most American gun : AK - 47 ??? 🤣
Came to the comments to see if anyone else had same reaction 😂
As a Afrikaans person, the shot from 4:22 makes me feel so proud and I'm sure other Afrikaans folk would agree
Colonisers and their descendants are usually proud of their work.
@@Obiodum_hell ya! They are the best! They made something out of nothing! We need more !
Yes, incredibly proud.💪💪🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
@@Obiodum_ we settlers , we fought the colonisers...gets your facts straight before you spew your left woke garbage
@@Obiodum_ the reporter in the video really said the whole continent would go crazy like any native African actually accepts these colonizers as their own 😂
i'm excited about this one!
Imagine bashing small content creators for finally reaching a spot in their career that THEY even thought would never come. Props to the UFC for recognizing these guys helping put a spotlight on MMA.
