You can't help but love her, her smile lights up a room 😊
Video Vixen Vibes
She's a real sweetheart isn't she? Just don't get her mad!
I'll add that there's something very attractive about her accent. It's not 100% latina, there's something particularly sexy about it.
Yes
It's the eyes for me.
@@lukemurray4950I've been trying to get a gofundme to buy her some c cup implants
Shes adorable. A smile that could light up Chicago. So Happy for this woman.
Why am I crying with Alexa 😭 so proud
She is the most adorable sweetheart! Her smile is everything and I couldn't be more happy for her! I was insanely excited watching her get that W!
Super adorable and a dangerous MMA fighter. She might be favorable for the rematch.
I was so invested in her fight with Valentina. I've had a crush on her for like the past 4 years and I'm always afraid to see her get hurt. Seeing her win was probably one of my top 10 favorite ufc moments
creep
The excitement on her face talking about her future is amazing.. i wish her the best...
the amount of respect and inspiration I feel for and because of Alexa is truly amazing. My parents are from Mexico but they know nothing about MMA. Yesterday, I was having lunch at my moms and explained how Alexa pulled off this upset and who she was and showed them a video.. anyways, long story short Alexa inspired my mother, my sister, my brother and myself. Viva Mexico!
Well deserved champ!!
Love it bro. Somos Mexico!!!!
ALEXA, CONGRATULATIONS, YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENT AND RESPECTFUL ATTITUDE MAKE YOU A TRUE ROLE MODEL! Hopefully you stay true to yourself and as you did not listen to people’s doubts and limitations before, do not let people’s fawning and flattery now let it go to your head... That is ALSO A BIG LESSON TO LEARN AND OBSTACLE TO OVERCOME...
I GUESS YOUR WISDOM WILL ALLOW YOU TO DO SO...

They got inspired to make that new chili con queso....insane
it’s just mexico
16:57 Emotional moment
Alexa's win infused me with so much Mexican pride...and I'm Vietnamese/Canadian.
From this day forward you will be known as El Stupido 🙉

@@Psycho_Logical_631 No man. You r the undisputed holder of that title 😂😢.
@@Psycho_Logical_631 you have the most title defenses.
🙏👏
How can someone be so adorable yet such a killer
Latin women are the best type of women on the planet

@@flyingmonke I agree... spicy
@John Khan they are until they're not lol
@@flyingmonke they age like milk
Coming from Canada, We have seen greatness once before, training, the mentality, the will to push on with the support you have around you..
This womens champion is meant for greatness..LETS GO GRASSO!!!!
I’m in love with her. My goodness what a beautiful human being inside and out
fk off shes my girlfriend
You’re probably infatuated
@@bobrossantichrisst who let you out of the kitchen?
I really haven't kept up with her. But it's clear that she's a sweetheart!! She's exactly what a Champion should be. Humble, team player and disciplined. A respectful killer!!
Otta see her grueling workouts, 2d to none!
@@peacethroughstrength172 I can only imagine. I've yet to see any "high level" Mexican athlete not put in grueling work.. 💪🏾💯‼️
I was born in Guadalajara and I am so proud of this Tapatia (from Guadalajara). She is so humble and so pleasant to watch how important family is to Alexa.
Viva Mexico and viva Canada!
She's awesome. This was such an exciting fight.
Being Mexican and following the sport for such a long time I honestly did not believe Grasso was going to be able to pull it off however I was still rooting and cheering for her the entire time. Before the fight I told my wife her story and her career how this was truly a David vs Goliath fight and she goddamn came through. I lost my voice from cheering and yelling so much from the instant she hopped on her back I could see Alexa was not going to yield and would indeed finish the fight.
Congratulations to Alexa! Highlight of 285 for me watching her achieve her dream, i was worried for her going in Valentina's a legend but she was fearless and fought a great fight 👊
She can be in the Hall of Fame for being the most beautiful champion too.
I've been following Alexa since invicta days. When she won the belt I couldn't believe it, I was jumping out of my seat. Shes' the most wholesome sweetheart ever, and the most humble. In the past she was always dreaming of getting into the UFC and hoping to get the belt someday and FINALLY SHE'S DONE IT!!!
You deserve it Alexa and a lot of people are very happy for you!
Her getting emotional is amazing and she seems like a really good person, i cant wait to see more of her...
Been a fan since her debut. Hurt to see Valentina lose, but it couldn’t of been to a better challenger
Im a huge valentina supporter but dang this girl has a big heart and you can't hate on her
So am I of VS but always liked AG also, if anyone was to dethrone her Im glad it was her. The work and the intensity of that this lady puts in is Fn insane! 2d to none.
i love her sm 😭 such a beautiful person inside and out so happy for her and so impressed by her
she seems very happy and authentic
Looks like Mexicans have inbuilt boxing genes, Alexa looked amazing on the feet. Hope she stays champ for a long time.
She's pretty as hell too
@@beaualoevv your shift at KFC done?
@@flyingmonke John khan what an oxymoronic name 😂😂😂😂😂😂
She is so wholesome is crazy
I never bet on UFC fight’s but decided to bet for the first time on Alexa cause I was rooting for her and believed in her and came up big. Go Alexa 🇲🇽 🤜🏼 🏆
Same here. First time I bet in MMA and I did it just because I felt the odds were disrespectful.
She so pretty she doesn't need makeup.
my goodness, she is just such a beautiful individual and so captivating. I would just love to see her win this rematch.
She will win a rematch! but I would love to see her take on Manon Fiorot who deserves a title shot before Valentina!
So refreshing to have someone like her in WMMA
Yeah she quickly becoming my favourite person in the sport and I'm silly for not following her journey earlier. This sport has alot of ugly and moments like this make up for it and keep me coming back. 😭
What a warrior. Great heart... Let's go champ!!!
Congratulations Alexia God bless you and your team and family!
So happy for her aha it was cute when she was crying it obviously means alot for her
Talk about a human being totally deserving of what they have accomplished!! Wow.
Single handedly ruined my 6 leg parlay. Congrats Champ, well deserved. Mexican MMA on fire right now!
Exact same here. 6 fights. The cutie ruined it
Alexa was everyone's parlay buster that night 😂
I have been following this girl's career since her first fight in Invicta and its amazing to see how far she has come. I hope she retires a champion
shes a good fighter but I don't see her retiring as a champion.
you've got val who's going to be working on all her mistakes in that fight. blanchfield, manon and talia who are all beasts in their own way.
Alexa may defend against shevchenko. but I don't see a long title reign
I think she will win the rematch against Valentina. Blanchfield is so slow, she moves and strikes like Ben Askren. Manon and talia I think are her biggest threats so far
What a beautiful humble champ!
She’s a doll 😊
She seems like an absolute peach of a human being, and her English has gotten really good!
So happy for her.
So proud of Alexa Grasso for her hard work and belief. I was looking to Taila Santos to be the one to breakthrough but it was Grasso's moment to have. Now, I'm glad she can look to shut up the critics and lame MMA fans with a rematch. This is why when so many people complain sometimes to just move on from the former champion that you have to do a rematch. Not only do champions like Valentina deserve that with their title defenses but it allows the new champs to define their era and show this belt is theirs, no luck or fluke involved. These fighters don't go into their intense training camps and give their all for nothing and these "fans" are lame to think otherwise. Legit win by Grasso. Val trains for EVERYTHING and talks about it and shows it on her social media regularly as a world class martial artist. She lost. Get over it. Good on you Alexa. You deserve it all.
We'll see what happens, never underestimate Valentina
Love "Bullet" Valentina, but how cool for Alexa.
I really wanted Blanchfield to be the one to take the belt off of Valentina but could not be happier for Grasso. Even back in her Invicta days her footwork and balance when striking was so good. Viva Mexico.
shes so pure i love her
Beauty, intelligent, humble and dangerous woman!
Naturally beautiful inside and out. I hope she has a long run as champ.
I don’t want her to get hurt 😢
She’s so pretty 😩
I love her, me as a Mexican girl as well, and watching her since Invicta, FELICIDADES ALEXA!
and Thank you for giving us (Mexico) such Happiness.
She did it. That is all...... People can say whatever the hell they want now. They can say she's average with skills, she's not good on the ground etc. This girl is the real deal. She can be bigger than Moreno if her manager plays her cards right.
Hard work beats raw talent
I’m getting emotional watching this 😢😢she’s my new fav by far
She's real pleasant to look at 😍
Most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen without makeup and she just happens to be an absolute assassin that just beat arguably the greatest woman’s fighter ever.
What an amazing competition. I’m in love.
I remember people in this comments section for this channel giving me crap for picking Blanchfield to beat Valentina lol and saying Grasso had a real chance. Lol suckers.
Proud of Grasso!!!!
What a pretty lady and a really sweet interview by Ariel Helwani…..👏🏽💪🏾
She looks so sweet but once she's locked up in that cage she an absolute badass. Damn.
Her smile is infectious, it puts a smile on my face even on a bad day
She’s so beautiful
7:01 Funny even some of the people close to her trying to prepare her for a loss
There is a reason why I think you are the best interviewer, and there is a reason why I believed that Alexa Grasso was the one to bring Valentina Shevchenko down a notch! Alexa is a down to earth, smart, disciplined and hard working warrior! she will only get considerably better! Valentina in my opinion will never get her hands on that belt again! Kudos Alexa! Viva Mexico!
Muy Bien muchacha! Very proud of ya !
Her humbleness makes her so valuable. Great person, great character, great fighter.
God bless her.
great job helwani great stuff!
Mexican boxing nullified Shevchenko's Muay Thai.... who would've imagined.
Bro. Truly high guard Mexican defense style. Hitting Valentina with basics but fast and tight combinations. I was telling my friends like, solo necesita tener su guardia bien arriba y cerradita y se la va a coger y mira!
So proud of Alexa. Viva Grasso! Viva México!
She’s a beast. Can’t wait for the rematch
Que bonita, que orgullo 🇲🇽
Crazy how fast she's become almost fluent in English. I can't think of another fighter that's picked up the language this fast.
I just finished watching the fight on ESPN+ and man Alexa grasso is absolutely amazing in the cage. I love it
Vamos Alexa!! 🇲🇽
Congratulations to Alexa May your reign continue.✊🇬🇧🇬🇧
She is such a sweetheart!
I think she wins the award for the most adorable and prettiest smile.
*She is genuinely georgueous, humble and charismatic, and a great fighter of course. Her box is beautiful bruh*
“Her box is beautiful” can mean something completely different lol.
@@Milburt I think he meant boxing... Either way both things are true 😂😂😂
MMA Hour is the BEST on the Net to listen to and watch awesome content. Thank you
Amazing fighter, amazing story
Alexa is the most gorgeous 125 champion ever with the real true humble character. She doesn't critisize her opponents at all & very respectful. She sounds nice in our ears too😍😍😍
Alexa is such a professional! Please stay humble and continue your hard training and keep that belt! God bless you!
El orgullo de el UFC Mexicano y de el mundo! Como Estado Unidense con raíces Mexicanas, nos hicistes muy orgullosos y orgullosas! Vamos Alexa!
What a wonderful young lady.
Congratulations Alexa
Love the girl. Great young lady.
Fantastic work. Congrats.
She is an amazing person.
Been riding the Grasso train in my betting and winning!
How could you not root for Alexa?
Never underestimate your opponents. One thing I have respected about Mexicans is that you must take away their soul in order to defeat them.
Good stuff right here. Anik is right that there is no better moment in this sport then when someone breaks through and wins a ufc belt for the first time
good intro ariel! respect
She's amazing
She is adorable and a great champion. I'm looking forward to her next fight 🍻
Jalisco has better venues than most of the the United states. Most American MMA fans have no idea how massive sports events can be in Mexico. The best chance UFC ever has at matching a Pride event will be in Mexico.
Very happy for her, still remember her fights in invicta
Love u Ariel for these interviews. You're simply the best. Long form interviews for these inspirational people !
She's great in every way
ALEXA, CONGRATULATIONS, YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENT AND RESPECTFUL ATTITUDE MAKE YOU A TRUE ROLE MODEL! Hopefully you stay true to yourself and as you did not listen to people’s doubts and limitations before, do not let people’s fawning and flattery now let it go to your head...

I GUESS YOUR WISDOM WILL ALLOW YOU TO DO SO...
I told you all that she could win. Her Boxing and Fight IQ are better than most Men.
Very cool Alexa. Very cool champ. What an inspiration you've already been
Women’s Flyweight is THE division. Alexa, Valentina, Taila, and Erin are all beasts! Go Alexa! 🔥🔥🔥
Gracias Alexa por hacerme creer viva Mexico
She is an inspiration. You make Mexico proud chica !
This woman is 🔥
Grasso winning was a huge man that was a huge shocker.. we will see how she beats Valentina again so that'll be interesting
