There have been some emotional moments inside the Octagon over the years, and despite every fighter going in with the intention of knocking out their opponent, when all is said and done nothing matters more than the respect they have for each other...

Women: men are to afraid to hug each other and show affection The Manliest of Men:
lmao
Correction: Insecure men, these men dont seem insecure to me in my opinion
@@sandybaby9573 i mean...i have a lot of insecurities but i dont mind hugging a homie
when both fighters understand the hardwork and put ego behind, they would share that mutual respect and show great sportmanship.
@@sandybaby9573 not correction cuz it's iust your opinion
The fact that the "Ultimate Trash Talk" compilation has 5M views and this has 23M views still gives me a shred of hope in humanity.
trash talk is a must thing before the match to create a serious hype by UFC intentionally to fetch more n more advertisers ... UFC make money players make money ... Simple .... its just a business everybody make money at the end of the day ....
@Danil Korochenskiy it depeends on the trashtalkers.. some fighters use it as a tool to break their opponent mentaly, and not just for views. and those kind of people i don't respect much, not good sportmanship.
Well trash talk is a common thing in UFC... Not respectful moment
@@peopleschampion9828 not really maybe in the big fights but it’s mostly respect after the fight
Is there any freaking thing to associate with humanity here dude?
The end of Izzy vs Anderson was bone chilling to me. Made me realize that heroes get old. The bow at the end was literally watching one generation pass the torch to the next and I will never forget it.
Underrated comment 💔❤️
Watching that live is one of my favourite memories
I bursted out without warning or apparent reason...
That was literally an anime moment right there! So cool!
@@tactical_369 I feel so left out cause everybody started talking about anime like 2 years ago lmao before that nobody talked about it. is dragon ball z considered anime??😂
16:07 I just noticed for the first time that Izzy was crying when he bowed to Silva here. And Silva was telling him to get up much the same way that Nick Diaz told Silva to get up when Silva beat him. So much respect
That's why I love that moment so much
Bro that's awesome I didn't even realise that. I mean, it feels like right out of a movie.
Wow man that gave me some major goosebumps
Bro
Silva was like a childhood hero to him he said it himself
He kicked his friend in the head. Refused to punch him while he was down then bowed to him when he got the win. Beautiful.
What time?
@@leo3340 3:50
They were team mates at the Blackhouse. Fairly certain Mark coached Machida and Silva on wrestling while he was there getting lessons on BJJ from the Nog twins. They were all good friends.
that was really awesome
If that would be always the case i would watch mma.
Khabib raised $100,000 for Dustin Poirier's foundation. What a good-hearted man, I'm so glad with all the success he has had.
yes what a good man, he sold a shirt. I would also sell mine for charity if it was worth 100.000 dollars xD unfortunately it is not .
Khabib da Goat 😎👌
Conor also donated $500,000 this week.
Move to welterweight
@@harrissalahi9184 Yeah I saw that, good for him 👍🏻
Khabib's father hugging Dustin made me emotional. Such a great man with a great character.
I thought the same thing RIP to that man
@@kyddopeness respect brother, but we Muslims don't say rip we say Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un
@@mkt106 too long just sat RIP
@@mkt106 should probably just go with ILWIIR or sum it’s called abbreviation for a reason
What time??
I still tear up when I see Silva and Adesanya. It’s almost like a fighter version of father and son. Mentor and mentee. The student becomes the master. Not only inspiring, also very heartwarming.
Adesanya couldn't believe that he just won vs his own idol anderson silva
Adesanya could never fill his shoes or be greater than Silva
@@sly369 he’s well on his way
They dint even fight like each other tf u smoking?? U think all blavk ppl look the same?
@@sly369 time will tell
that man that stopped his punch is the definition of mutual respect and restraint (Lyoto Machida)
Lyoto Machida, from the north of Brazil.
anime king his name is lyoto machida put some respect on his name
I truly think the best parts was either the restraint after the fight was observed to be over, as well as the show of true respect at the end, with the two warriors kowtowing each other at basically the exact same time in appreciation for the match.
Though it is good sportsmanship, I'm pretty sure they're good friends so it's less surprising that they'd show respect for each other than some of the others in the video
Machida does that with all his opponents though, he is the oppidomy of class act. MMA is like a very respectful chess match for him. These are the moments that make MMA the greatest.
3:50 is how the sport should be. none of this bashing someones face in while they're knocked out. huge respect to that man.
Also that's his friend not just college
man shut tf up
Love lyoto, great fighter from Pará-Brazil wich I am from xD
Best Yasuo OCE sometimes there in the moment with all that adrenaline and they don’t even realize that they are unconscious
Yea cause anybody else would’ve beat that man to sleep 💀
8:50...had me in tears. What a blessing to have such a beautiful, loving lady in your corner! So much honor and respect to the defeated opponent. Blown away
that was his opponents mother, Tyron Woolley’s mom
3:50, i enjoyed seeing this guy's restraint, honor and integrity as much as i enjoyed the post fight of Habib and Dustin. it might feel good to trash talk and raise the stakes, but it feels so much better when two fighters respect each other and create a heartwarming and exciting moment !
Lyoto Machida, one of the most entertaining fighters in LHW.
“This guy” that lyoto machida dude a legend of the sport and that was a close friend of his Mark Munoz
dorood
Hes asian and understands that martial arts is about respect, honor, and control. Giving someone a beating when they're down has no honor or respect in it
The bow at the end to his friend was a really really really nice gesture. A worthy opponent for sure in mark, he just got caught lacking and it happens to everyone in this sport. Love the restraint of not hammering Mark while he was down, I love that Lyoto didn’t want to do that to his friend.
Adesanya vs Silva. The best passing of the torch moment.
Just saw that a few hours ago. I agree completely! True sportsmanship there
Until he dry humps Costa after humiliating him in their fight here in the future. Utterly classless tool.
@@sunnibird keep crying.
sunnibird bruh, Costa is the classless one, he even made a skit about Izzy and he just bringing it all back to him.
@@sunnibird respect is given where its earned
In the end, we're just humans trying to keep our families alive.
Word...
Holy dis to holy
@Smarty The Pants ehhhh bit weird but ok
@Smarty The Pants oki nice 👌
But that hardship becomes negativity and then becomes an ego
16:00 Got me, man. So much respect. I legit teared up when I realized Izzy was crying after bowing with Silva. Such a wholesome moment.
I wonder if he knew that Anderson can barely speak English. Anderson just kept saying “yes”😂
@@strnglhld Anderson can understand English perfectly fine.
GSP is one of the most respectful fighters of all time. He always showed self control and always made sure his opponents were ok. He’s a very good guy.
it took me way too long to realize Joe and Dana were two different people
yep us bald white dudes all look alike ;). j/k. They do look similar though for sure, and they're both a face of UFC.
Have the same look and equally famous
That was me too back in the days I always thought the announcer was also the boss
One is skinny one is fat
One is a stoner that has a podcast and the other fights.
3:52 Honor - Allowing him to yield Respect - He ethically bowed Loyalty - Not abandoning him in his current state
Respect
switch respect and honor
The Japanese are truly the most cultured civilization to ever exist.
@@anonymousSTYLIN He's Brazilian
@@anonymousSTYLIN still got me tearing up tho
Lyoto Machida is without a doubt my favourite fighter ever. Never hits anyone he doesn't have to and always shows respect.
As an MMA fighter this is what it's all about. My last fight in Clarksville Tennessee a smaller promotion didn't have the pre fight promotion but I didn't know anything about my opponent but his wife couldn't make the show and he said she wanted to see who he was fighting so we did a little face off picture for her. Then after I won we sent her one mutually congratulating the other for a good fight
@David Russell that's what martial arts is all about, respect and improvement.
That's very wholesome
I love this
Know any good bjj gyms up there. I live in chatt but I go up there quite a bit. I know Samuel Braga does some visits to Bristol gym
Can we rename this “Top Joe Rogan awkwardly waiting for an interview moments”
Lol
I thought I was the only one that noticed that 🤣🤣🤣
Lol fr 😂
hahahaha epic top ten
🤣😂
They missed Khabib vs Conor one. That one was very respectful as well
Fr😂
Especially when Khabib went to show respect to Conor's team right after the fight
@@auga3896 Hahaha very true!
@@auga3896 they didn't know it was all hugs that was going to go down, they over exaggerated it.
I remember that it got me in tears ngl
Nick Diaz getting Anderson back to his feet and showing him respect was just awesome. Always brings a tear to my eye. Plus Lyoto checking on Munoz after the headkick and holding back an unnecessary punch was awesome.
GSP will forever be my favourite fighter. Incredible talent, and a very respectful man in general.
He was and is the coolest dude to enter the octagon. Great fighter and a man of true character. Much respect!
@@jackderipper2233well he is Canadian
@@randomlyrancannabis7020 Québécois*
Trash talking becoming the only thing that sells huge fights anymore is kinda wack

"The Most Respectful UFC Mo..." - Conor has left the chat.
He is respestful its just dumb how people think that his act is really him
@@konstantinvasovic3079 Didn't he get a group of his friends to attack Khabib's bus?
@@nostalgiagaming8955 but khabib and his mates ganged up on Lobov one of conors mates
@@konstantinvasovic3079 Yup, he is real a class act. Punching an old man and smashing a fan's phone = 👍🤗👏
Steven Donovan but Conor attacked a bus full of people that could’ve injured the passengers inside the bus
3:56 that level of respect between the two gave me chills.
No joke, the respect shown at the 3:50 knockdown made me tear up a bit.
That was the nastiest sounding kick ever. My guy needs a metal orbital now.
There is nothing more satisfying than sportsmanship in fighting. Just something about watching people trying to knock each other out, then hugging it out after the fight, it's just beautiful. They fight for pride, they fight for their families, but when they set their own glory aside to show respect for the other fighter, it makes it more fun to watch.
Stop kidding yourself they fight for money and fame...most of them at least...
@@Velshin1986 And? They still showed respect for one another, and frankly speaking, that's all what matters.
Well that is exactly what he said. Great job for repeating
@@Velshin1986 that what he meant when he said fight for their pride and families
@@Velshin1986 ever wondered what is needed to buy food
Nate Diaz' eye has been cut for the past 15 years
Lmao seriously
And it will be cut again if he gets to fight masvidal
He from Stockton... he came out the womb wit a cut on his eye...
Dudes got so much scar tissue that if a fly landed on his face it would bleed, dudes a walking warrior
Lmaooo
Lyoto’s father owned a dojo in Brazil, he was a monster who went against his fathers wishes while still bringing honor to his art and family a true class act.
Almost everyone, despite our knee-jerk curiosity of violence and rage, truly loves honor and decency. It is in-bourne to all of humanity to see us care for one another
Beautifully said
WHOEVER IS MAKING THESE BT MOMENTS NEEDS A RAISE!
True that
Agreed
G. Mahler I don’t think BT made them man.
@@ryanboshell6124 Yes, they did. BT has a digital rights license with UFC right now. They are able to produce their own promos and highlight collections. This content is a different style and taste then ESPN and UFC promotion, and a lead editor at BT runs this channel. So......
Joshua M. Oh. I thought the fighters made the moments.
04:09 teared me up. So beautiful. I want a friendship where my mate kicks me in the head and we all good.
I punched one of my old friends he forgave me but we drifted apart.
Neil Breen *why-* ya know what never mind
Lyoto is simply the best.
He did same exact thing to vitor belfort front kick to the head and didn't punch him because he has respect
@@Elbowbanditest2003 me n my friend do this daily practice our skills
The best and most underrated part of the sport. Seeing two warriors give each other kindness and respect after just exchanging in a physical war is an excellent example of the honor prevalent in the sport. These moments in seem to mean more in MMA than any other sport I think. The handshakes/hugs seem to just be treated as a formality in other sports.
Damn, seeing Khabib's father hug Poirier after their fright brought tears to my eyes, must've missed that when I first saw the fight, so lovely to see such a character of a man hug Khabib's opponent, true combat sports hero's, RIP to the legend
I to this day cannot get over the fact that win or lose, every time a fight ends Nate Diaz is just covered in his own blood.
Thin skin maybe? Or blood thinners? Who knows
@@FishFind3000 A lot of scar tissue

One thing we can all agree on is the world needs more Deborah woodley’s
Indeed
I just need one of her pep talks every once in a while!!
Righteous words!
Ive never had a powerful black woman pep talk me, but i feel that might propel me to success in all areas of life! That was amazing
Kyle Casey I was skateboarding one day and a random black women told me I could do anything trick any time a time a needed it they just know what to say loving people
they all know how much it takes to get to these places... the training, the pain, the journey... it's beautiful seeing two of the strongest men in the world show each other this love
Machida is such a underrated Legend bro. That clip of him not following up on the punch to his friend is so damn cold. 🙏🏼
the first one tho "don't cry, don't cry" 😢
I cried
random sagittarius Anderson Silva has a beautiful soul man
And it ends with Anderson passing that on with Adesanya beautiful
What happend to him
@@theghost6910 he got called a simp by a weeb.
There is nothing purer than Diaz telling Anderson not to cry
💯
Facts💯
Real fighter understands his struggles to get to the glory and at the same same time he respects his opponent’s struggles and loss too. Fighters who have empathy for their rivals are true fighters.
MMA might be the only sports where the male and female categories are both incredibly good. I really enjoy this part of the sport. Everyone from every country can come and be a champ and it's awesome that it exists, just for that. And those moments of sportmanship are really unifying, I think.
3:15 awww When Khabib’s father hugged Dustin i felt the respect
I heard his father is in coma. And conor tweeted wishing him well and a fast recovery
@@prithvibumia2941 yes , it's a true Conor send a tweet for khabib and abdulmanap 😇
hugged right？
2chainz in da back filming
rip
„I am sorry that I cursed at u“ Man that gave me the chills
time: ?
12:11
a true man
And the response, “it’s alright, it’s emotional, I get it.”
Adesanya and Silva may beat each other in that cage like hell, but the respect is inevitable ❤️
Let's all just take a moment to remember Michael Bisping had been fighting with one eye since 2013. And he never told anyone. That's a bad man.
GSP is so canadian he legit apologized for choking Bisping out
I know he felt bad after every fight 😂
@@ChunkyPuffsRaichu right, but for me that makes him even more respectful and humble, the fact that he can be the very best in the octagon and be so respectful towards them afterwards and even apologize after his fights makes him really solidify himself as one of the greats, even hyping them up afterwards.
Quebecoi
When Khabib's father hugged Dustin.... Ya'll really got me crying up in here.
same
Legend
3:49 I can't get enough Machida is a legend.
It's so much more satisfying to watch battles when before and after them fighters show respect to one another. Like really, it just becomes 10 times sweeter to watch.
Deborah Woodley is an angel sent from above. Whether her baby wins or loses she's always thankful for his opponent and respects both men for getting in the octagon. Shes got a beautiful soul fr
d-wood the goat fr
Yeh her embrace with Usman as he was tearing up was beautiful.
I dont understand what happened there. Did the other give up or sth or did woodley just win?
Jessie McCartney
@@adriaanvanwaasbergen3171 darren got thrown in the deep end too early in his career this was a prime woodley

Mrs. Woodley is an angel. Her and Ray Thompson are my favorite UFC parents :)
Grown man here. Sobbed like a baby when she was hugged him. Was not prepared. Bless that woman.
Yeah. Woodley's mother and Khabib's dad...
i love to see when fighters are respectful to each other after a fight
Respect is a beautiful thing man. This is how it should always be. Kudos to all these fighters.
If only the streets were like this 🤦♂️
To many people are scared to get beat up anymore.
ford9339 yep
Underated comment😂😂😂
it used to be like that, two people would get beef and after so long theyd have a respectful fight maybe with family to watch. now people just shoot each other.
love my streets
Tyron Woodley's mom is a national treasure, and must be protected.
Facts 💯
Unlike her son
yall had me hyped thinkin yall wanted her
Lmao
Lmao
3:50 Machida is a true gentleman......what a legend ...... respect
The way Izzy and Anderson showed respect for each other is just Anderson passing the torch over to Izzy. Win or lose, Izzy had already proved to Anderson that he can be the champion.
Israel vs Anderson was almost like a passing of the torch, in many ways, Israel almost feels like his successor
Ricado Santos Definitely felt that way!
Ricado Santos that fight was like a scripted movie i swear
Imagine Gamez okay great value edgelord.
Pretty sure he literally said that
Jony bony jonny
Anderson Silva is incredibly humble for a living legend.
Knowing he is a living legend instills humility since he doesn’t have to prove that he is.
He's the Greatest
@@tyronmarz457 he really was until jon jones appeared. still one of the greatest though and actually loved unlike jon jones. lol
This video was spectacular I’ve seen almost every single one of these fights and only glimpses of the conversations after . WOW!!, HEART Warming 💕💕💕 GOOD JOB More people need to see this video
Lyoto Machida is one of the most respectful fighters ever. Big respect for this man!!!
Absolutely absolutely true
The adesanya silva fight got me in the feels man. I grew up watching and idolizing Silva and so did Izzy, and getting the opportunity to fight him and win. Can’t even imagine the emotions.
Am not sure izzy would beat silva in his prime, he was just next level.
Bro it was like THE perfect time to retire for real like that was legendary. buuuut ya know how retirement works with MMA fighters
@@JessePatrick-zc8ng least Silvas making money and still looking good, looked like a world beater against a former world champion in his recent boxing match
@@chacha19882 prime Silva would win fs
Silva was an old man not much of an achievement
The last one is so touching. Love to see my brothers respecting with one another. 💪🏿💪🏿
Izzy and Anderson always makes me tear up a little. Imagine hearing that from your idol.
Lyoto Machida has been known as one of the most respectful UFC Fighter. I remember several of his TKO wins, when he sees the his opponent being unconscious way before the ring referee did, he'll stop his punches half way until the referee declares it as a win. Love this man, definitely a Hall of Fame.
0:40 imagine if Gustafsson just went for a takedown lmao
Oh Gustafsson gets the takedown!!! It looks like he dosen't know the fight was over!

I love that these fighters show respect because they understand that it's the sport and that their is a mutual respect for anyone in the octagon
even the strongest feel respect even the strongest feel respect even the strongest feel respect even the strongest feel respect even the strongest feel respect
I'm surprised they didn't show Paul Daley after the Koscheck fight
That one was pretty emotional. I cried a river after seeing such a beautiful display of respect
Can’t forget Bisping, graciously spitting at his opponents corner after the win. Such a humble and beautiful show of respect
So respectful he wanted to keep going.
Nah. I don't want to cry like that ever again.
The true definition of a love tap. I also think we should show BJ Penn devouring the blood of his unconscious opponents. Nothing says respect like consuming the blood of your foes
Thumbnail: Israel Adesanya showing respect to Anderson Silva Also Israel - *Proceeds to raw dog Costa after the fight*
First one is his hero on mma, Costa wast picking on him
Costa deserved it
Respect is earned. Respect is mutual.
Give respect get respect applies to everthing
Dis costa respect izzy? No
Tyron earning his black belt was literally an anime moment I love it. The champion becoming the grandmaster. Only to be shown up by the student when usman came for his head, I love this sport.
Estos gestos deportivos y de compañerismo dejan ver lo mejor del ser humano y hacen más grandes a estos luchadores. Todo mi respeto y admiración hacia ellos.
11:30 that guy kissing the other guy's cheek, a true MVP
I love that! Lmaoo
kinda sus
Lol.
wtf dude :v
He was like wtff??
3:52 is showing us what a true professional fight looks like that class and respect
problems is, so many full retard refs that dont stop the damn fight.
Hahaha

@@ICeyCeR3Al I think the actual problem is that the responsibility is exclusively put on the refs shoulder. It really wouldn't be that hard to put some of that repsonsibility on the fighters.
at last...good to see some love and compassion in the world
Khabib is the most humblest guy in UFC. Alhamdulillah, May Allah SWT bless him with more success.
"This is no.1 bullshit"
16:03 man so much respect
He was tearing up thats why he didnt wanna sit up for a second.
That one got to me...
I love the respect, any man who can show that much love to another man who he has shown so much aggression to moments earlier in my books is a real man.

alexander gustafsson is one of the greatest of all time. Everyone had to get through him as like a video game boss to prove they are worth it while he was left behind. What a underrated legend.

Arthur Sprong honestly bro💪💯
Damn near cried myself when I saw her and Usman. Not many moms would do that

Those two guys are training partners and good friends.
Lyoto Machida 💯✊

Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida is like a real life Mr. Miyagi. Humble winner and a gracious loser.
Lyoto is classy as hell in victory and in defeat.

I love such respects in sports . Not those bad things to say to each other and fight while facing off . Respect to be respected
3:50 It's enough to make a grown man cry
it's so beautiful how these large men cries, it just shows that even tho they're mascular body, they still have emotion like everybody
Well, they arent robots :)
@@hyperplayer22 we know that but it doesn't FEEL like that

Gustafson is the most underrated goat ever. He faced both top rivals ❤️ Cormier and Jon Jones. And earned the respect.
Where's Khabib after the McGregor fight?
Oh yeah lol
He took the early flight out of the Octagon to beat the traffic
Such a wholesome moment ❤️
