![[HD] Full Fight | Justin Gaethje vs Luis Palomino 1 (Lightweight Title Bout) | WSOF 19, 2015](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/J1cpGKua-W0/mqdefault.jpg)
The guy failed on the first 2 attempts for the backflip at the end of the fight. Pushed the guy walking in the octagon to dry his hands off and went for it again. Nailed it. This pretty much sums up Gaethje as a person. If he's able to walk, he's going for it.
I love this
He's definitely not the average looking guy that you'd want to fight on the street. Dude could probably sleep a group of meatheads in no time.
Absolutely. He is a beast. I love his fights. He always brings it
Pushed the doctor off, even better
I used to big flips off of sea walls at the beach. After about 500 or so I finallover rotated a front flip and broke my big toe lol . That's why back flips are so much easier . U land on your heels & not your big toe
The power Justin has even when fatigued is remarkable
He doesn’t waste punches on combos he loads aims and fires off
power is always the last to go regardless of context 🤣
@@gvalley6949 nd he only walk slowly, dosent waste energy on footwork
justin is animal! wheeew a fight!
He don't rush unnecessary... Casually walks to finish his enemies
It is so scary when Justin hurts someone and he calmly walks them down and is not in a rush at all knowing it's only a matter of time before there will breaks and he knows his never will. Most exciting fighter ever hands down
i think jiri is more exiting, because he will just rush in, get KO'd, and then just win anyway
@@SonsOfDeForest right?🤣🤣🤣🤣but damn can he at least keep his hands high ?
Ever fr
he said in a interview that he got stoped twice while going after guys he just rocked thats why hes not rushing
@jason Dude.... Like a great poem, well said man.
Justin is a damn monster!!! Trying and sticking that backflip shows just how much heart he has!!!
This is one of those fights you show new fans and they fall in love with the sport immediately. Even the leadup promotion was legendary.
Lawler vs Rory 2 and TUF Finale Griffin vs Bonnar also.
@@TotallyNoCat Yeah rory and Robbie, and I recently showed a newbie buddy O'Malley-Yan and also the Hendo-Shogun fights. I think I'll explain the progressions made in the sport soon and go back to show him Hughes-Trigg 2 in the wrestler dominant era.
Naw. This fight is just two barbarians blindly swinging for the fences. If you want new fans to get hooked on mma show them Rose vs Carla, Lewis vs Ngannou, or Izzy vs Romero.
UFC is not a sport it is a barbaric chess game
@@TotallyNoCat Don't forget Hunt vs Bigfoot, Medeiros vs Oliveira, Wanderlei vs Rampage 2.
How could you not love Geathje ..i love the end of the fight he dont have energy to climb but he do backflip .
I was worried, but thankfully it went well. One of the most exciting fights! I have seen some Gaethje fights. He always provides. Tough fight to the finish!
spot on absolutely hilarious
That shit was funny he slipped twice hhh
The first 2 seconds of this fight emitted more action than 25 mins of Rose V Carla
Verdade ❤
Justin never ceases to amaze. He can be sleep walking and come back and win the fight. What a great fight by both men.
A man that's not scared to get knocked out is a dangerous man
Those guys were completely exhausted. Great fight and much respect for both guys.
As they should be.🤓📚
No respect for Johnson the way he trash talked Gaethje and his family.
One nostril Gaethje
When Gaethje tried climbing the fence but was too tired at the end 🤣🤣
100% agreed. It's why I loathe Johnson.@@gavinstarling8737
This fight told everyone what they were in for when Gaethje steps in the Octagon.
Yeah - total and utter boredom unless his opponent does something interesting
No. There is no locking technique that can be learned from this fight
@@velicyatan5545 bruh is tryna learn how to fight off UA-cam🤡 go to a gym lmao
@@paulietv2162 You seen more than 1 of buddy's fights?
@@paulietv2162 🤡
8:46 really feels like a big momentum shift. Michael hits Justin with some really big shots, but Justin just instantly starts walking him down again. As Michael takes a deep breath and retreats back toward the cage again, I almost sense a feeling of dread from Michael, like "I've hit this guy with everything I've got, how is he still coming?". Then it turns out to be the beginning of the end for Michael. This fight never gets old, all-time classic.
It was at 9:08 when Michael pieces him up for the final time but Gaethje won the next exchange at 9:12
What a legendary battle between two absolute warriors laying it all on the line. Up there with Robbie vs Rory, Jon vs Gus and Dan vs Shogun. CLASSIC!
Hunt vs Bigfoot doesn’t get enough credit. That was insane back and forth war.
Dan TRT Henderson
Kinda crazy to think Gaethje’s first fight in the UFC was a main event against a top 5 opponent lol
fed to killers from the get
He hasn’t fought outside of the top 10 since joining the ufc and only opponent who wasn’t ranked top 5 was James Vick who was coming off a big win streak and was favourite to beat justin
@@harindergill4358 and gaethje knocked the fuck out of that guy
Gaethje was Lightweight Champion and defended the belt many times before he came to UFC. That's why he was given top 5 opponent when he came to UFC.
Jiri was also given Volkan in his first fight who was also top 5 I believe
Michael Johnson. A guy who is winning every fight I’ve watched him fight in, until suddenly… he’s not.
lol damn, do you like him though?
@@bringinthedope5929 how do you not like Michael Johnson?
Bro the fuck did you just say? Hes won 3 in his last 11
@@mikalbippin5410 what's to like about him?
@@HabibAbdellatifi the fact that he eats his shit whole, not piece by piece?
How can you not love Gaethje man. What a special fighter. He always gives us an amazing show and always makes the guy he fights look good aswell.
10:24 big girl straight passed out in the crowd 😆
Holy fuck
Looool good spot
Must have been Johnson's woman LMAO
🤣
Dies of shock 😂
Michael Johnson, the only fighter who could beat Ngannou and then lose to an unranked flyweight the next night
Lowkey facts😂😂😂😭😭
I always said He's like one of those "best to never win a title guys" (like Gus) but it should be "best to never be a Top 5 contender consistently"
He gave khabib and Justin hard fights just to lose to unknown fighters
@@7effa One of the fews to kinda hurt Khabib until he got absolutely obliterated
Michael Johnson’s stanky legs 🦵 😂😅
After watching Justin for years now...he is a legend. He is one of my all time favorites.
The look on Michael Johnson’s coaches face at 9:16 after Gaethje landed that uppercut lol
whyd he say "nice mikey"" after he ate the fattest uppercut 😭
@@sk8foryellow168 We're thinking knew it was best to put Johnson on his Ass... TKO 🥴 ✌️
Justin falling off the cage and getting back up to do his celebration backflip gets me everytime.
10:27 I can't stop laughing 🤣
@@random__joe LMFAO
One for the ages. Great debut. Justin , still not recovered is determined to get a back flip in off the cage. Must complete the highlight reel. .. Respect.
Kind of shows the fighter in him. He could have easily failed that backflip and had a debilitating injury, but no, he nailed it through sheer force of will!
Zero Grappling. Just All out war. Love such fights!
9:20 one of the cleanest most proper uppercuts i seen to this day
Hats off to Michael Johnson for making it look easy standing toe to toe with Gaethje. I would imagine that Gaethje was impressed and perplexed right out the gate when he stayed in the pocket while Johnson snuck in some blinding fast punches proving to Gaethje that he came for a war. Classic.
Smooth Style Johnson has. Especially the ending of his combos are fast as lightning
Michael johnson is elite not every fighters could go war with Justin in stand-up
Johnson's got some nice hands, and really effective when his footwork was busy. I wonder how he'd do as a pure boxer outside of MMA.
Kinda ironic since he said that’s what he DIDN’T want to do but still did lol
Boi was eating his shitz whole and it showed when JUSTIN KNEED HIM TFO!!!! Jungle Justice was delivered .
Absolutely amazing fight. Justin was rocked and came back and got the finish. One of the best UFC debuts ever
@@kshayarsha Absolutely amazing fight, still
@@kshayarsha boy keep your mouth shut
No. There is no locking technique that can be learned from this fight
Kshayarsha-
U acting like you been in any fight at all😂😂😂. STFU hating ass bitch😂😂😂
Kshayarsha-
Go to your room and shadow box now😂😂😂😂😂
Dang warriors- God bless these men and their families. They sacrifice so much for us to sit on our couches and enjoy.
What a fight!! It was an absolute war. There wasn't a single second in the fight where it looked boring. And Gaethje does hit like a truck. He's a beast!!!
"He might not know where he is, but he's on his feet!" holy shit that's gold 😅 such comic timing on the delivery too
Justin my favorite Fighter. Definition of a Fighter. Most savage in history.
Khabib ride him and sent him to sleep easily...not on the same level!
live up with his nickname for sure!
Hell yeah. Absolute fan favorite, losses be damned. He comes to fight
He's my favorite fighter of the whole UFC... what about him vs chandler that was INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish he’d wrestle more in 5 round fights, but i get that goes against what makes him such an exciting fighter. Dude is in way too many wars though, not the best for a long career.
Easily the most entertaining fighter ever. Real fans dread the day he stops fighting
Which one?
not even close
hell nah. you ever seen Dustin Poirer v Dan Hooker?
Olivera vs Dustin
@@AK33M I hate the fact there was no crowd for that fight, makes it less enjoyable
Great shots by Johnson, Justin tough as nails, great technique by Justin to close the fight
Gaethje is a legend already. 👍😎
Second round. Justin was EXHAUSTED. Then Micheal got rocked and tired and Justin seen the moment and went for the finish ! That was a War! Classic fight!
What's also crazy if Michael Johnson just put in some more pressure and when in for the finish he could of beaten Justin but Justin adjusted and caught his breath and got the W
Those leg kicks killed Johnson. Anyones Footwork gonna drop off dramatically after a dozen of those things. Yeesh.
This fight was phenomenal. The boys were really laying hands and their iron chins were definitely softened for the future of their careers.
That left liver shot Johnson hit Gaethje with at like 7:45 would have most pissing blood for a week too
Can't even deny, Michael Johnson was so underrated and didn't shy from the toughest fighters in his weightclass. Justin doesn't need no introduction, this was a clash of the titans, I respect these 2 so much.
Massive respect for both of these guys, what bravery and heart
Gaethje just digs deeper than most guys ! Dudes got a ton of heart ❤️
Youre going to hate since youre a typical white American but Justin fights like a mexican. He has the heart of a Mexican fighter
@@mmafan8861 wow ? You sure know me , don't ya ? 😂😂
@@mmafan8861 One of the most presumptuous statements I've ever read. You must be a delight to be around. I bet you have all the friends 😆
@@mmafan8861 You couldn't just say Gaethje fights with the heart and ferociousness of a Mexican!
That "get up" from Gaethje was cold af.
I love how he never stops throwing leg kicks
I rewatch this at least 2-3 times a year
Every match i feel Justin is gonna loose but ends up winning!!
What a talent!
yeah, loose bowels maybe
win, lose or draw, michael johnson will always be my favorite fighter 😍
Same. Both of these guys are dogs of war
Pushing that guy away and proceeding to do the backflip on the 3rd attempt is one of my favorite ufc moments ever lol
This is in the top 3 best ufc fights in history. Personally my favorite ever
Гейджи в UFC- это феномен , любой бой с участием Гейджи, независимо от исхода, означает что будет грандиозное зрелище.
Да, красоту показали
истину глаголишь! настоящий бриллиант ЮФС
That backflips shows you everything you need to know about Gathje character....He falls 2 times and still goes for the third time and does it.
PERSEVERANCE!!?
What a match.absolute delight
The lady on the right that just falls straight down the floor always gets me at 10:24 😂
Also notice how the camera shakes when she falls down 😂
How you guys even spot this shit 😂
Legendary fight and heart shown by gaethje
Tf it was heart shown by both fighters clown
I swear Gaethje must be like some bio-engineered prototype created by the UFC to create maximum chaos and be endlessly entertaining. Maximum cheddar too $$$ and that backflip finish 😆 the guy is epic 👌 a true UFC machine 👏
9:49 bruh watching Justin gesture Johnson to get up instead of finishing the fight there and proceed to ragdoll him around the octagon was hilarious asf xD What a fight
Swear to God, my favorite fight ever... How Justin eats that shot still keeps standing, how he walks him up after getting him hurt, he literally told him I will break you piece by piece for which Michael Johnson had a lame reply, he broke him up piece by piece
I remember watching this fight at work on my phone cuz I couldn’t miss it!! Still one of my fav fights of all time!!! Thanks for uploading this gem 💎
Me every single ppv because I work late night food and bev. Always on my phone streaming the fights lmao
Two great gladiators, one great fight and both deserve great respect.
Kudos to both of these fighters both showcasing their high level striking along with unbelievable heart. Amazing !
I always forget about this fight until I see it again. Then I remember how thankful I am for it. The difference came down to Gaethje's chin vs. Johnson's.
Crazy to think that Johnson had Gaethje hurt multiple times, KO'd Poirier, and almost had Khabib wobbled.
Insane!
Also outboxed Barboza and Ferguson and was beating Josh Emmett until he got caught.
Man we are blessed with how many legends exist in lightweight, so many classics
Gaethje litteraly goth eye-poked at 0:50 and didn't called for anything and simply continued to march toward Johnson. Tough guy
Can’t hate on Johnson, absolutely amazing fighter. You gotta understand, he could fuck up any man on the planet. But in that octagon he’s fighting monsters, no shame in any loss. Guy throws hit heart out just to get some hate from men who couldn’t handle two jabs.
He's pretty great
johnson had always struggled with guys with ground game, he needed to improve his wrestling big time, otherwise he wouldn't have lost to clay guida or thiago moises
I felt every one those Gaethje's explosive kicks.
right?! for some reason you are the only one here talking about the key issue of the fight - michael wouldnt check almost any of those killer calfkicks and his leg wasnt working after a while.
Fights like these tell a story fight start to finish. Respect to both warriors.
justin gaethje one of my new favorite UFC fighter well done monster !
Best debut in UFC history. This fight let us know what we were in store for and every fight since has been more of the same.
Michael Chandler starching Hooker was pretty impressive, that got him a title shot in fight 2.
@@dowutado No doubt but this one was just epic and had bad blood and was like nothing I think we ever saw in the UFC. This is a young dangerous Johnson, fast with power and Justin broke him and then was crazy enough after being clocked like he had couldn't half walk straight to do that backflip off the wall. You knew this guy was something different. Crazy.
Silva vs Leben in the title eliminator was imo the best debut ever.
This is what a win looks like when a camp comes up with a winning strategy and runs into tremendous opposition and while making subtle changes, sticking with attacking that lead right leg and keeping the fight standing. Hats off to both fighters and congratulations to this young man in his debut
Always thankful for a Justin Gaethje classic!!
Hell yeah. His entire UFC career has been one big highlight reel.
Master technician. 🎉Man of steel. Gaetje. Total class. ❤
What a fight, Gaethje is extremely strong, but you can tell in his early career his precision was not developed. Now is much better on hitting his target.
And conserving energy and setting things up. Overall he's improved.
Gaethje is underappreciated. You can guarantee the fights going to be a banger when he's fighting. Same thing with Chandler.
I just wish Chandler fought smarter, but then again maybe that's why we love him
But everyone says those compliments about those two fighters all the time 🤷♂️
There is not a single mma fan that wouldn’t say the same thing, how is he underappreciated? I think he gets shown a lot of love
You know who else is appreciated? Robbie lawler and Dustin Poitier. No one gives them credit for how violent they are
He's one of the most appreciated fighters in the entire sport
Gaethje is violent af. His hits are so powerful.
One of the very few fights I always remember and always come back to. One of the greatest fights of all time.
Man Justin Is Really Tough Goddamn fell off cage and still hit a back flip wtf 💪🔥🔥💪
That hand speed from MJ at 6:02 was insane lol. Literally how he caught Dustin. Dude is an actual menace
The perfect nickname. The guy can beat anyone and lose to anyone. Love both these guys
At that level you need to generate power, technique and many other things behind that speed or your just getting your self tired.
Outstanding performance by justin gaethje. He's very aggressive and superb. His skills are elegant.
OH MY GOOOODDDD. THERE ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THIS CRAZY PERFORMANCE!!!!!!
Just wow....an elite fight for the ages...respect for both the fighter to portrait a show of courage,skills and heart..💯💯🙏
What a savage debut for Gaethje man. He was born for this shit.
“Johnson’s legs are shot”took me out 😂😂
Both of those dudes are pure warriors
I remember watching this fight with my brother and we were still new to watching ufc and we both looked at each other and couldn’t believe what a fight this was.
What tremendous fight. This is a hell of a fight. Both guys are too good. Justin is a true Fighter ❤️❤️❤️
Without a doubt, my favorite MMA fight of all time...the will is incredible...the power shots from both guys have such viscous intent behind them...and that come back from Gaethje is so unpredictable and furious, it should be on a monument...damn, I love this fuckin war
gathje el mejor.. Saludos desde argentina
Gaethje was asking to get upper cut or kneed up the middle this fight the way he was shelling up and dipping his head but classic Johnson.
A UFC debutant fighting the nr.5 ranked guy right away. Crazy how times have changed...
This is such an amazing fight. These guys are WARRIORS!!!
Thank you who put this up love me some Gaethje and miss Johnson in UFC old days great fight thanks you
Johnson had some of the fastest deadliest hands in mma.
Respect to Micheal Johnson too, lot of people underestimate how good this guy is. What a legend
I will forever respect Michael Johnson for stepping in there and throwing down with JG. These guys went straight at it as soon as the round 1 started.
Alot of respect to both dudes. Geathje is a beast.
👏👏👏👏ВЫГРАЛ НАСИЛЕ ДУХА!👍Красивый, зрелищный бой.
Два бойца достойны уважения!
I"m such fan of Michael Johnson. He's so good.
Hats off to both fighters, epic fight.
Loved watching this fight, so much so ive watched it many times now , respect to both warriors
The fact that he doesn't look where he is going to land via a back flip tells a lot about how crazy he is!🤣
The timing of the guy saying the Ultimate highlight and justing falling off the cage is still funny 10:27
One of my favorite fights of all time. The lead up to the fight is also what made it so satisfying
Гейджи молодец терпеливый мужик. Салам алейкум из Кыргызстана
Still the greatest debut ever
