I love how Gaethje's parents look pretty much exactly how you'd expect them to look
😆
they looks like they’re not a big fan of the minorities 😂
Justin's dad seems like such a big fan of him. Good for him.
Good proud dad.
His twin brother too..

Yeah cute family. Real nice.
Insert all the “who’s here after he defeated tony Ferguson” comments
AsSalama'laikum! Yep!😁 Although...I DID say I wasn't going to watch MMA during Ramadan! Here I am!😅😳
Omar Abdul-Malik DHEd, MPAS, PA-C walaykum salaam ikr right lmaoooo it was a time where I broke my fast but also I watched the whole thing lmaoo
I'm here
@@OmarAbdulMalikDHEdMPASPACPAPro I am also watching
@Joseph Seidl including you
Damn, this dude is exciting. Pay this boy, Dana White!!! One of my favorite fighters, for goddamned sure.
Constructive Critique He got 300 grand for hoe Johnson fight
Has more bonuses now than fights in the UFC...should get paid more too in my opinion. Gaethje is a superstar.
Myself he’s already made over a million from the ufc already. Johnson 300k, Poirier 165k, barboza 300k, Vick 275k, Alvarez 165k
Dana pays fighters he likes disclosed money, a bunch have come out about it. You might make 100k, but if it’s a great fight he will bring you a 50k check etc He was writing Dominick Cruz 60k checks every few months when he first got injured and was out a while.
@@LesgoBrandon7 justin has said that they pay him more because of his style.
Great guy, nice family.
twfljeb damn bro chill
twfljeb who peed in ur cereal buddy
Thanks man
He's half mexican
Justin's swing kinda reminds me of Mike Brown from the old WEC, he had Cinder-Blocks from fists
I like Gaethje man. Seems like a good dude. Reminds me of my best friend that unfortunately passed away. I hope he makes it to the top. Best wishes to him.
you should see him now mane
@@aidenmichael1 Hard to miss him now. Can't wait to see his next fight.
Condolences for the loss of your friend, may he Rest In Peace 💐❤️
Rip to your freind mate
this dude has such a crazy style, hope I can see him as champ one day
Nah he's got many weaknesses and not enough strengths
Tyler Workman that will never happen
He has the ability to be champion and be difficult for Khabib but he needs to be more methodical
He's got the power, he's got the kicks. He just starched barbosa. If he would threaten with his wrestling once in a while, he could beat the top guys. I'd love to see it, he's an entertaining fighter.
Charlie John has
I wanna workout with Justin and play xbox with his twin brother.
*“Right away I was like ‘oh my god he’s dead’ “*
Lmao
Awesome family... Super humble and likeable person. They did well getting some of his coaches in there. Go Justin!
I'm from Montreal. Grew up watching Arturo Gatti. This kid is the Gatti of MMA. Hope he gets the belt
Connor Wants Khabib in Saskatchewan UA-camr go watch gsp mate
Thats a great comparison, actually . i never thought of that
Prayers Answered Man.
Am also from there, me and Arturo both went to the same elementary school Lambert Closse early 90's, he was a popular kid 2-3 years older than me.
RIP Michael Johnson
Nick Diaz nah MJ will beat him
Jo Salgado Well. This is awkward.
K G nah not really. It looked like he poked Johnson in the eye so it isn't much
Jo Salgado Is that what it was? I was wondering why MJ was holding his face. i thiught he just got rocked really bad. I didnt see anything in the replay. probably wasnt in the right angle.
Jo Salgado ohhh shut the fuck up... He got beat down like a bitch
My favorite fighter. Not because of his style, but because of how he is as a person. True inspiration
justin gaethje first round KO versus edson barboza. let the record show that it was no lucky punch
I was there live it was amazing
He started the fight with getting into a legkick war. What a madman
Best performance to date, best fighters in the world couldn't get barboza outa there in one
u gonna ignore how fkd his eye?
@SEVENTEEN I guess you think Donald Cerrone is a gatekeeper too. And then theres Edson Barboza, is he a gatekeeper? (Ill give you Vick as he got the fight with his mouth) No, the guy is a legitimate world champion and hes called "The Highlight" for a reason. Long before he lost a fight he said he would get knocked out one day due to his fighting style. In todays MMA all fighters lose a fight sometime but its how they come back that matters. And he came back strong!
This was great content... Really nice to see Justin's family and background such nice ppl... Justin such a cool guy and he's a fukin killer in the octagon fair play to the guy
Im here after the Khabib fight. Great guy i wish him and his family the best. Khabib and Gaethje both first class guys. I didnt know him before but now im a fan.
representing the small town rural america life. I like this guy and his family. What a great fight against Tony
im probably more excited for his debut in the ufc than any fight this summer. Love this dude
ted yancey damn you must have like an obsession with this guy then
ted yancey his fight was so good but the fight everyone looking forward to is jones vs Dc
ted yancey "who is Justin Gaethje?"
"Get me Justin Gaethje!"
"Get me another Justin Gaethje!"
"Get me a young Justin Gaethje."
It's crazy just in 2 years he's already a top-tier contender
I’m from the future. He’s pretty good lol 😉
Gaethje should be the highest paid fighter in MMA in my opinion.
Myself why
@@jessetaylor9124 more bonus's than fights....backflips from the top of the cage...you being serious?
@Myself I think the best should get paid the most and I don’t thing Gaethje is the best.
@@jessetaylor9124 Conor gets paid the most, he isn't the best. whoever puts butts in the seats gets paid the most. deal with it.
@Myself so are you saying Justin puts the most butts in seats?
Bloody brilliant. Best vid I've seen for a long time. 100% FAN!
6:35 "You break your body, you break yourself and unfortunately it's good for you"
Cool video ! Love this guy, and being from Arizona ,he is my hometown fighter! You cannot miss Justin’s fights!
This series earned a sub from me. Loved it.
Great guy and great family. One of the most exciting to watch.
God bless him and his fam. Dude's an amazing athlete
He would make an incredible ufc champ!! I'm ready to see him use some of that wrestling and hit another level!!!!
Love this dude! Mom and Dad are great! You can see why he turned out so awesome!
A great addition to the UFC, looking forward to his next fight already.
This kid has every tool he needs in his belt to beat khabib
When he threw that belt on the ground and said he was waiting for the real one.... man it gave me shivers. Thats sheer blue collar heart and heavy hands that got him there.

Been watching this kid since his Sam Young fight and have watched hundreds of hours of film and "highlights" from this guy, he's special- Seen all his "professional" fights and slow mode/analyzed them, and man.... I haven't seen a guy like this in a while, he's going to shake up the 155; he said it him self he's gonna lose and he's gonna get KO'ed but he's gonna go at whom ever is across from him at 110% maxed *2 till someone drops, himself or his opponent. Love it, I'm calling this now, give him 4-7 fights in the UFC and Gaethje will probably be fighting for a belt.
Brad Monitor if he beats Johnson, he can beat anybody
Yep. He was my favourite fighter not in the UFC. I hope he keeps winning because his style is unique.
i like this kid a lot but i do believe he is going to run into the same problem the black beast just ran into. you can only fight like that for so long. have to become unpredictable and let off the gas and change strategies etc. if you guys think this kid can fuck with Tony F....we shall see
Brad Monitor you sound homosexual
doobtubes : You sound like a Fuckwit.
Video is very well put together and quite an inspiring, interesting story.
Great short doc, SB Nation!
I haven't been watching sports for 2 years now. I got my masters and getting my PhD. I didn't know who this guy was. But I'm glad it was in my feed. It shows that if you want something, you gotta work hard to get your opportunity so you can take it 💯
I love how well he sees himself when he says oh theyre like normal people lol

Great vid , loved it
im also from arizona rooting for him
Love the fact that Origins is crossing over to MMA and covering these dudes! They deserve it and great video.
tru american bad ass i love this kid ....i wish him the best,
German and Mexican
@Javier smith his mom is mexican. i don't want to bring race into this but fighters with mexican in them are beasts inside the ring and octagon. wild chins.
I don’t care what he is I just love the guy
@@LilSephy
You cant bring race into it because "mexican" isnt even an ethnicity , there are many different ethnicities living in mexico to day. Gaethje has spanish and german ancestory , but he is still a "true american" , as the user Toby Johnson said.
And your stupid mexican master race and "immigrant mentality" bullshit gets you no where, jesus, i can understand why the american people wanted to build this wall.
@@LilSephy He's a beast because of his wrestling background. AMERICAN wrestling.
he's sooooo humble. i love him♥️
Wow, so glad I clicked on this. Amazing story. I always say and think fighting is mostly a mental game.
To achieve your dreams, you must be AWAKE!
Who is here after the fergusons fight? Dont lie
Vinsoy 01 💯✌️
Who was here b4 true justin fans only
MEEEEE!!!😁
Vinsoy 01 yup but I’ve been a Gaethje fan for years
☝🏼☝🏼. Was recommended tho
that was great. I want more pt 2.
'look at all those punches I blocked with my face"...defensive genius this guy /s
"They better put him down, otherwise he's gonna keep on comin.."
A star in the making
Made me a fan! Good folks right there.
I never miss a fight when Justin is fighting always amazing true warrior
"Oh my God, is this what we're going to be watching from now on?" Justin's Dad.
Kind hearted + Fighter= VIOLENCE
badass dude. he is one of my new favorite fighters. I like to see these college wrestlers do good
My new favorite fighter!!! Love this kid
For some stupid reason these are the nice folks Mike said where brother/sister inbred..Make that guy pay.
Mike, who?
@@zakthompson6312 Mike Johnson. he was taken care of...
Zak Thompson MIKE JONES
Jack Powell WHOOOO?
Martial Artist you can’t be half mexican and half German dumbass. Either you are one or just none of them. You mean his parents are Mexican and German.
This was fucking awesome. Been a fan ever since his first fight for WSOF. Can't wait for his fight against MJ. Idk if the Menace can handle Justin's pressure. I say we see a stoppage in the 3rd. 18-0
NoahTre way to call that fight. You nailed it.
Son Nguyen thanks man!! Been a long time fan of Gaethje and I'm glad he did so well in his debut!
he didn't nail it. it was a 2nd round stoppage.
be keeping an eye on this beast!
i met this guy at an amateur fight night, we met up after the fights due to mutual friends and he’s a great guy!!
He gets a high from the lights and fans. I feel that’s why he fought Tony so perfect no fans no crowd cheering for him to get lost in and reckless like he did in his two losses. I thought it would benefit Tony more because it was more similar to his TUF fights but man I was wrong. He smoked him!!!!
I love this guy what an amazing talent. He's a true warrior, He's a Savage!!!!!

After you see his history you see all the prerequisites for the making of a champion. Textbook legit. All the ingredients to make a superstar. God definetly blessed this guy but he blesses on his end by showing heart, effort and humility beyond measure.
This guys a stud this is what good ole hard work can get ya
UFC 249 Saturday, May 9, 2020!!!
Who's here after justin became the inter champ
As a twin, you have built in competition from the womb! You don’t realize it as you grow up as you grow up fighting in everything you do but you see it late teens and early 20s how lucky you were to have it.
never seen or heard of him before today..
that michael jhonsan fight was epic..
big fan now!!
keep it up justing :)
One of the most exciting fighters, period. 8:40-9:24 was epic
This guy is so young and he already is punch drunk and slurring his words. This sport is brutal
he's also some inbred white guy...
Ya'll Finished Or Ya'll Done? With his style.. I ain't surprised
You take that shitty insult from Michael Johnson? lol
It's his style. He takes a lot of punishment, way more than other fighters. He takes hits to give hits.
Besides, he doesn't really slur.
Aniruddha Sharma that style is going to get him knocked out. I want to see him fight Barbosa next. Diaz would be a good fight also. I just see McGregor knocking him out, Tony catching a d'arce or beating him up on the feet, and Khabib showing him why he's the best grappler. I'm really liking Gaethjw though.
How can anyone NOT like this guy? Simple, humble and super tough.
I love this guy! He will definitely be one of the best ones in his weight division! All the best brother straight from Poland.
future lightweight champ
haha
lol nope
lope
Mate, no.
ohhh yees b!tches 😛
Nate VS Conor 3 pls
Justin VS Khabib pls
would be awesome 😏
This guy is a living Anime character
KennyRooks how?
Cringe
💯
You’re a living idiot with bad jokes
Stop watching cartoons, Kenny. Be a man.
Saw him towards the end of WSOF and was hooked!! He is the human highlight reel👍👍💯💯
One of my favourite fighters for sure. Completely fearless and it’s obvious he “gets off” on fighting. Go Justin!!
I hope he makes enough money to take care of his parents and brother.
Straight up Mexican spirit no quit raw aggression
Always been a fan of Gaethje he has this raw explosive power. I also went from wrestling to MMA so watching him is a lot of fun.
I truly love to see a competitive good fighter with a good attitude after the fight.
ffs they ended right at the best part.. i was like wtf why finish now...
Atheist the rest is to be continued. I know I felt the same way. Hopefully there’s a part 2.
trash talk or not....Justin is TKOing Johnson....easy bet
You act like Johnson doesn't have hands
agree, he wobbled Khabib
lol wow
I have a lot of respect for Gaethje, true fighting spirit in this kid.
How can you not like this guy? Just loves to compete and fight. No bullshit, love it.
Who's here after they clicked on this video?
German engineering, Mexican warrior spirit, American grit. America is a beautiful melting pot.
No
Tremendous. Fav fighter ever. Nothing like a Gaetche fight
Ran into Marcus yesterday shopping, and he's a kickass dude. He even remembered that we went to school together. Good guys man!!
He's gonna trash Michael Johnson
I hope he faces Khabib the last. If not he's going to destroy his legacy even before he starts. This guy is definitely one for the future. After MJ, give him maybe Kevin so he can derail the kevin hype train, then Tony which probably will be a close contest..
Pushing raw talent can break him as the top 3 are murders in any division. Well except for the midget division.
Really goood video! Me want more
Most exciting fighter in the UFC! LOVE IT....in the 2nd, 3rd rounds when he points at his opponent (who's laying on his back) and says "Get up!" (and "Get ready to have your legs chopped blue and your face pounded to ground beef some more!" Just Brutal!
We've seen the brawlers come and go, look at Diego Sanchez. Hell of a brawler, good wrestler, but no good against the cool, calm, technical fighters. He's only dangerous to c-level fighters. Mcgregor would knock him out in one, Ferguson would eat him alive, Nurmy would dominate him, unless he learns the high level stuff. He's terrifying, but he's not elite.
Just sayin'.
well to say nurmy would dominate him is the understatement of the year .
how many fights you got?
shane medlin He's not just a brawler. He's a pressure fighter, with insane infighting skills and powerful legkicks. And he at least moves his head.
And, he just KO'd a perennial Top 5 contender.
Vivek Aggarwal Gaethje's worst matchup is a technical, accurate, counterfighter. Not Khabib.
Well, Aniruddha, he's an interesting fighter, and his leg kicks are effective, but he reminds me of the Diego Sanchez who fought Nick Diaz. Maybe a little smarter? Like to see how he does against the top 3, or the champion.
Good Vid
Great intro!
Great documentary.
AWESOME UPLOAD! Great Family and 1 of the best fighters in the World.
