You're both such reasonable kind people, I love your chemistry and conversations.
Dan is a G, completely fair about all things UFC even though works for the competition and has complicated history with them.
At the beginning, it was all of Dan's analysis that got me into his channel. But now, it's incomplete to watch him without V's insights. Such a wonderful chemistry you two have!
I agree
Dan Hardy is a lucky man (no disrespect, the dynamic of the relationship is rare to find and it’s beautiful to see)
Come on bro. Comments like that aren't things like Hardy wants to hear. Show respect and comment on the show and not his wife. I'm sure Dan already knows it. Smh
@@toddjohnson5176that comment is for his wife coz she sure would like it, your insight is kinda unnecessary
@@toddjohnson5176 It’s a compliment, not about her but about their relationship and I am a man so I relate more with Hardy when it comes to finding wonderful women and how rare it is. I mean no disrespect. There is plenty of hateful comments you can comment on, I can see what you are saying but I feel like this is low priority in light of the internet.
@@toddjohnson5176 I edited the comment to clarify
they are not together? sorry new here
This was enjoyable to listen to while working, the couple’s mellow tone and demeanor made it really soothing to get through the day
Well done on the win V
2 super easy bets putting money on her last 2. At good prices too lol
@@NorthStrongSC I really want to see her go far in the ufc, but honestly i feel like it'll just be rough for her at 125 with how tall she is. Blanchfield makes it work at the top level, but her super strong grappling game lends itself better to a smaller body type than being an in and out striker like V. It wasn't a height issue, but rose was basically too small to compete with fiorot, I fear something similar might happen to veronica when she starts getting to the upper echelons.
@@trinidaddyRose had a broken hand, she did well with one hand, I imagine rose does very well healthy.
@@phalsparnaaa
@@loopvil369 nice rebuttal, my statement still holds true.
I wish you guys would do a post-card review show, where you reflects on the fights and your predictions!
Dan is going to do a Sunday live to discuss the fights
@@VeronicaHardyMMA okay great, but we need you there too V :)
@@VeronicaHardyMMA Dricus took rob down..i see him takin sean down too.. dricus also came out southpaw vs rob, so u can be sure his got a few game plans for this fight..dont get confused by the way he looks.. his not just a wrecking ball.. dricus is very calculated
Don't think they would do that considering how many predictions they get wrong
I think Dricus' grappling is going to be a real problem for Sean Strickland. The fact that he got Whittaker down and battered him there shouldn't be taken lightly. I think he's going to be too strong and skilled for Sean and will likely submit him. Don't forget his nose got fixed so his cardio will likely be improved too.
I agree about the wrestling, but I don't think it will be a submission. I think more likely, the threat of a takedown leads to strikes..... Or Strickland will stuff the takedowns and wear him down and win himself.... Look forward to finding out. Either way I think you are right that Dricus' ability to take down Sean will be the key.
Don't be sorry for the tangents Veronica! That's what I came to hear! Welcome back! I've missed you guys! Happy New Year!
"Dick-liss..." "Well there's the advert for the podcast..." Holy shit I'm dead 😂💀
😂🤦🏻♀️
Man I love this podcast, seems like months you guys haven't put one out! Veronica MVP.
I think that’s why we went on so many tangents on this one 😅 I was a bit too excited
Another great video. We missed you both back. Nothing but love to you Dan and Veronica! LFG Sean Strickland! #AndStill
Great to have y'all back! Dan may all the praise as analyst, but V delivers better insights on fighters than 99% of MMA media.
Gotta be up to date with the gossip😂 fighters are sensitive beings
Don’t apologize for the tangents, I love them. The banter between you two is my favorite part. Missed you guys
You two always produce my favorite fight previews. Keep at it!
This is a great podcast! Both Dan and Veronica are very knowledgeable, insightful and intelligent. Loved it!
V’s British accent coming thru at random times 😂
Encyclopedia Dan & Professor Veronica giving us free MMA tuition , your padawan thanks you very much.🙏❤.
Dude the breaking down the Octagon show you used to do was amazing, wish you could do it again
Always better when you’re both on, great show 👊
These segments are absolutely gold. Great chemistry as always, dynamic duo for MMA talk.
@16:30 I think it was Sanko who said that all strikes from distance are counted as significant. The probing jab and the overhand right are counted the same.
🤦🏻♀️ that’s ridiculous. Thank you for the info
dan "stop the fight" hardy should still be apart of the ufc commentary team
he is a good guy
Be was til he got sacked for slagging a woman
who was the woman @@matthillard9363
Been missing the Podcast and the picks! Great to see y'all back!
Great podcast,and great chemistry.This was fun to listen to.Keep up the great content guys and doing what you do 👊👊👊👊
Hope you guys keep dropping these in 2024! Favorite content out of this channel for sure!
Such a good couple. I wish to find my Veronica some day. Good stuff guys
The dynamic duo!
Veronica should be a comic. Mostly aloof, bombing a lot, and sometimes lands the premise and the punchline. Well done! 😁🤘♥️
😂
Good to have you guys back!
100% Veronica you gotta give the people a good pick!! We take the pics seriously!
DDP will eat a few punches, get in his space and smash SS.
Love the show. Excellent breakdown and commrotmery from two of my favorite fighters. Much love from San Diego! 👍🏽
I rarely comment but I've been subbed since 2019. I've always loved the picks podcast and i'm really glad it's back.
Gracias Veronica del futuro!! Espero que gane Sean. Nice Ozzy shirt, Dan 🤘
I missed you guys! Thank you for another great show!
I love to support the show even more now that I know it provides a safe space where Verónica can't get slapped! 😂😂😂
🤣🤣
Strickland is getting FINISHED! 👊🏼
good info, good breakdowns, I like the chemistry. good video for me to watch before I wager. thank you.
Good to have you back. Just to let you guys know for some people this podcast is peak entertainment. Unbeaten rants, knowledge & comedy ❤
Amazing podcast. i'm happy you're back
Solid breakdown as always Dan! I got Sean Strickland winning.
Happy New Year! Welcome back to the best picks show on the internet. Great show and btw big cheers on the V's win, what an upset!
These two are so sweet together
Veronica such a good analyst and character. Dan is a wizard. Great stuff!
Went to the fights that week, missed yours V! Really wanted to watch you live, either way good win 👏
Veronica is great on the mike. No need to hover around it. Love your podcast 😊
I agree, and I'm not just saying that cuz I'm scared of her!
i am scared to say otherwise
Here all day for all the tangents! Happy new year!!
DAN Levelled up BIG TIME with VERONICA :)
I liked Dan's breakdown on how to position yourself in relation to the mic when looking to the camera.
Watching Duplessis fight is like witnessing Mathew Riddle fight, but it works all the time...
I love the tangents. You guys are the best. Much love!
Veronica’s rant on superheroes is hilarious 😂
I’m sorry I had to get it out of my chest 😂😂
@@VeronicaHardyMMA You are like a real-life superhero - and your smile is infectious. You and Dan have the best chemistry and I can watch the entire podcast. Thank you!
Brilliant to have you guys back
TOP insides as always 👏 THX Hardy's 💪
Love y’all. Such a great combo ❤
26:50 appreciate you Veronica for this since that's literally what I do
😂 i gotchu
Great Breakdowns as always Out Laws !!
Even meow, this is by far my fave podcast come PPV fight week 🔥
😂🐈
😂 this has been one of my favorites. Keep on the tangents. The superhero rant was hilarious.
Love the intro music Another delightfull hit show 💯👏🏼
One of the first things I noticed from the DDP-Sean scuffle was Brandon fing Moreno being a good guy and protecting his wife amongst others. He looked away right as it happens and still jumps up and turns his back to the fight while others are watching pulling out phones he was helping others being a damn super hero! I loved that he did that and didn't care about the fight like others who enjoyed the show. I was waiting for someone to also see that and comment. Thank you Veronica for being better than other goofs who didn't notice whatta good guy Brandon was that night. It was a revelation of his character and as Patrice O'Neal would say .....Thank you for revealing yourself. But he was saying that to women and it was opposite meaning lol. Thought more should use that one
Love these two !
Ironically Barriault is like a Canadian Strickland, even though he's fighting Strickland's team-mate.
good to see y'all back. we need a veronica hardy fight announcement soon. Dan hardy is looking too fresh for a old man haha. great podcast guys, hats off to y'all
You guys have an excellent dynamic. This is my first time listening to both of you on the show and Veronica is more than able to hold her own from a technical standpoint which is pretty impressive when comparing to Dan. New fan!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Veronicas English is superb.
I think everyone hopes to find someone where they can have this type of chemistry with their significant other. You two are really lucky to have each other ❤️ Much love and blessings to you two and your future endeavors together!
Dan! I gave you shit on twitter years ago and we had a bit of banter and it’s literally my claim to fame! You’re a legend mate and I love your analysis - keep up the great work and stay happy and healthy buddy x
Skip to 1:03:22 for the main event breakdown
Another great Podcast. ❤😂
great breakdown thank you
I need to get back on keeping the scores :)
If Chris Curtis gets headbutted in this one Imma go mental.
Great win and great super hero rant, V!
Seans top 3 biggest stars in UFC now
Can't wait for Veronica's next fight
solid solid episode
I like them both. An interesting couple. I'm happy for them.
Huge thanks!
Du Plessis will brutalize Strickland the same way he did everyone else
Having the belt does not make you the best ~ it just makes you the champion..
Hola Veronica! Looking forward to watching your next fight as I really enjoyed the last fight live! I predict you will be a future champion! My prediction for 297 Sean Strickland wins round 4 tko! Hasta Pronto Veronica UFC por siempre! 🇻🇪🏴
Good stuff folks ✌️
I mean, I come here for the picks, but I stay for the tangents... don't apologize for them.
Idk about Dan's take. DDP is well-rounded who's not afraid to grapple. Yes he does get tired but we don't see him quit.
Best in the business
Awesome Channel!!
Aaaaaand NEW!!.... DDP is the man.
To be real Veronica's rant was great. More buff women in media of all sizes.
Lol they'll never find actresses willing to put on mass for a role. And women who are naturally intimidating usually get typecast as the tough lesbianish chick. Look at Michelle Rodriguez or Gina Carano
Exactly why it should be done
I like your videos talking about fights but I only watch when Veronica is there 😅
The du plesis v Strickland breakdown was amazing. Never thought about how Strickland’s ability to close distance effectively and stay there could be such a difference maker
Robert is a pretty good boxer as well no? If Sean gets in close I have a feeling DDP will muscle him down. Everyone underestimates DDP, and Dan def. Hates on him. Dan forgets this is a right not some Bruce Lee movie
all robert tried to do was blitz ddp with a hook, rewatch the fight and you'll see. sean gon break ddp down with crisp boxing.@@dlife7427
@@dlife7427 I can't picture Dricus moving backwards in this fight. I think he will use his wrestling early. The take down he got on Whittaker was so impressive because of all people to do that to Rob is probably one of the harder fighters to take down at 185.
@liamweinberg4902 agreed, he muscled Robert down, threw his ass down. I do believe Sean is stronger then we think but still.
Dricus recently out grappled a few gracies
IT'S BACK LFG !
I'm a big Arnold Allen fan. Pity Dana White isn't. Tough fight, but Allen is Almighty and he has this one.
Thanks boss!
Oh man, first time i think you've completely misunderstood and misinterpreted a fighters skillset. Additionally i feel you've massively underestimated Dricus's team who game plan masterfully. I also feel the mental game between the two is wildly in favor of Dricus. Anyhow we will see tomorrow night! Love the podcast as always. Well done V on the victory. Big up the Outlaws!
Dan please let me klnoe what app you use to breakdown fights, I can't find it anywhere. I think Luke Thomas uses the same one right?
You're both great. She *was* a big girl, Veronica, but you still notched the fight.
Never need to apologize for the tangents. It's why we love you too :-)
It’s pretty 50/50 I feel 😂 but kinda how we discuss fights off the mic as well.
such a lucky guy ! veronica is amazingly cool
