Ben askren looks like a statue from ancient rome
Hahaha yeah I think so
This comment is amazing and so accurate lol
😂😂
HAHAHAHAA that's hilarious
It's something about the shape of his eyes. They have a weird, unique look to them.
lmao robbie just laughing and enjoying the show
Joao Alegria He’s the most dangerous guy in the room and he’s always quiet, too. Guy’s an animal.
I wouldn't say in the room, cause you know, Jones is close by xD but a killer for sure! the quiet guys are always the most dangerous!
Auto blipper I wish you said that to his face! :D "the loudest person in the room is usually the weaker one" ;)
@@yaakw Woodley destroyed Robbie. Jon Jones would destroy everybody on the stage.
MrAmhara I got my money on Smith.
Woodley calling Usman LL Cool J when he's the one trying to get a rap career now is great to look back on
mama said knock you out
Ok Nerd
Yea but he's right about Usman using a faoe accent to sound cool
Woodley will be off the charts and back into our hearts on 9/19/2029
falling in an outta love with his career ❤️
Ben is really getting in Marty’s head and he isn’t even fighting him.
That's what friends do ;)
Different then me i thought Ben was to worried about kissing Woodleys ass
"Marty!! We've got to go back in time and stop Ben Askren from humiliating you Marty"
Doesnt matter if it is Marty point is Usman was nice he said to Ben ass kisser Askren that mayb the guys will sign autographs for him to take home we all know Woodley will he loves his cheerleader
@@jefferyreed4073 Even when he said if Tyrone slipped on a banana peel ! He's NO ass kisser.
Lol this press conference was just plain funny
Got so much respect for woodley now
Lol. After this video I'm looking forward to watching this card.
top 3 press conference of all time behind only Conor vs Diaz with cans and the Chael disguised in Brazil
Dana is the teacher, Anthony smith is like the teachers pet, Jones is the kids that won't shut up, woodley is the 'but someone else was talking ' kid, Ben is the class clown, lawyer the quiet kid, Cody the dumb one , Usman the 30% effort kid
@@yosoyalexlucero7137 u have a shitty sense of humor then, idiot
Tyron and Ben should be tag team champs.
This is such a great comment
I want to see them fight
😂
Ben would wrestle wind of out of opponents and tag Woodley in for a KO finisher
@Elliott Dunn I kind of felt sorry for Usman. They got him good.
Ben Askren giving out some dead pool vibes ⚔️😂
Good call, he does sound like Ryan Reynolds
Dr Algiers no he does not lmao he’s referring to the attitude
Negus both - the tude & voice
Dr Algiers At first I didn’t hear it but now I do. Not the whole time though, just some things he says.
Young GuapGod 5 seconds
Woodley actually had some dope comebacks... That LL Cool J shit had me dyin' "where's my Chapstick!"
Yup Woodley owned Marty, had me laughing my ass off for a minute.
same that was hilarious lmao 🤣😆
😂
@Devin G L
Devin G this comment didn’t age well
Ben Askren should be at every press conference haha
Hell yes
joey balboa Everyone every damn press conference
joey balboa specially if Marty is there.
balxa vae 😂
joey balboa shit! marty won 😂
I find askren hilarious lol
It's like he is a welterweight,curly haired Chael Sonnen
@@happydays6649 he is shit next to chael, no wits
He's a troll but so funny with it. He's what Colby wishes he was.
Same man ben is pretty funny
Yep Sonnen all day 😂
13:43 He called it
Lmfao, exactly true, he literally predicted the future
If only Ben knew how the law of attraction works. He probably manifested that.
Ben beat Lawler
1-2
😭
"listen to me young man" "i'm older then you" lmfao marty was DONE after that.
No he wasn't. Actuality Usman got him big time with the come back unless you turned it off after that. And Ben is the one who shut up
I'll agree that usman had a good comeback. But yeah after that woodley had him wrapped up.
hrishith menon he’s the champ and you will have to accept it
Usman roasted him ben pretty bad😂😂😂 And now ben got knocked tf out by jake paul 😂😂😂
@@alis05 Ben and Usman were Great in this trash talk
Haha! Woodley and his LL Cool J reference are hilarious!
Hahahahaha
Yeah cause that’s deadass what usman be sounding like...his whole persona rubs me the wrong way
Arsenal K 🤔
@@kfratz6 For real, this time Woodley killed this press conference lmao
@Arsenal K The fuck are you talking about you racist scumbag
Smith ready for that MGM Grand Security job
That suit still clean tho
😂😂😂
R M This will be Jon's easiest fight, probably of all time
Chael will probably remain his easiest fight
@Phan Nguyen hey at least there is a chance right?
Ben askren 100% looking for that next Michael bisping and Chael sonnen spot in MMA commentating lol.
He is a natural at this.
@@johanflod I agree
Yesss
He would make an awesome commentator especially if he retires with an 0
It would be amazing!
13:32 didn't age too well
A tragedy Shakespeare couldn't have written better
I like how Ben and Tyron bullying Marty LOL.
Tyben Askley
Diplamatik Juan Benron Woodkren
So hilarious!!!😝
Did you also like how Usman mopped the floor with Woodley and make him pissed blood from body shots ... your hero got smashed.
Then Marty bullied Tyron in the cage.
Marty got T Wood hyped. This should be great.
No doubt it will be entertaining. But getting Woodley amped before facing him has yet to work too well for the others. Will Marty be different? Time tells all.
POTfreemason woodley was barking up the wrong tree with knock outs😂 usman has more impressive punching power than him
@@verstappen9937 No he doesn't, Usman is more volume Tyron bangs you once your ass is down.
Incredible Inverts Usman is your typical lay n pray wrestler with terrible stand up
@Dr retardoNeither, that's the name he goes by. lopers.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=324
Anthony Smith lookin like an undercover NSAC agent undercover, diguised as a fighter.
3:56 Usman: Listen young man. Ben: I'm older than you. Usman: congratulations 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Askren is a funny dude, seems an intelligent guy too. Hopefully has a long career in the UFC.
Eric Rudd I agree, wish he wasn’t that old lol
He’s also a tad of a smart ass. Annoying
@@Abdul-iy6xg Woodley is in his prime at 36 and DC at 40 wrestlers just are that dominant. Ben is 34 same age as when DC joined UFC
Ben Askren is the best hypeman lmao he backin' woodley up!
Fr😂😂
Askren: "Most people don't understand real friendship like that, I don't covet any of his posessions" Lawler: *Angry Breathing* Woodley: *Cough Cough*
@JCM hey said covet which means the samething as you just said
@JCM said covet
@@pball1331 Covid
This was a legendary press conference. One of the best ever
Of you notice Kamaru has been in the most legendary press conferences
How do you let another grown man change your own name 😂 Ben is awesome I love him already. Marty from Nebraska
Ive seen old interviews with Usman from hes wrestling days... It says Marty at the bottom text... are u saying Asker was the one to change hes name back then?
As if Usman has any control over what Askren says😔
Marty is his name for real, Ben didn't change it...lol
Marty “LL Cool J” Usman 💀💀
No shit. Somebody cant take a damn joke, butthurt much
i will get on his back and chant USA lmfaooooooooo
😂😌
You mad 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 stop crying baby
@@chowderman43 I'm American dumb fuck I'm laughing at it cause it's hilarious
i was laughing so hard, i love Ben
Best trash talk line in a long fucking time 🤣🤣🤣
Ben Askren borrowed his Dad's pants, shirt and sandals for this lol
The only guy that is so relaxed and comfortable that he dressed relaxed and comfortable as well. He was still able to work under these shocking conditions. Ben is legit.
Lol I love bens heckling during tyrones and usmans argument
Ole Marty from Nebraska lol
Askren hurting feelings
HEATH COCKBURN I don't know why the name with the picture is so funny. Great work buddy.
If he wasnt Tyrones boy tyrone would be calling him racist
165 makes sense if they move 170 to 175...I don't see the issue with 135, 145, 155, 165, 175, 185 - that makes sense no?
Makes a hell of a lot more sense than 135, 145, 155, 170, 185, 205, 265
Midknight1124 and add a 225. I think a gap from 205-260 is a little big
@@whoisthisis138 Yeah I agree. Or just have an "Open" division or something like that at the upper end
Also Welterweight and Lightweight always get stuck cause there are so many contenders
The only issue is what happens if you open a weight class and no interesting stars come about. Then u just lost on your investment. (125 for example.) I'm all for more weight classes but I'm guessing that's what they're waiting for. What surprised me most was Conor asked for 165 and they didn't do it. That was the first time I ever saw the UFC stand up to Conor
He predicted his own retirement
Ben Askren literally had every answer for Usman. Usman - "Listen young man" Askren - "I'm older than you"
He didn't have em prepared...just got that quick wit!
Yeah but that line about "you're up here with your favorite fighters, maybe we can all sign something for you after" was pretty good comeback lol 4:02
@@ChewbaccaOnDrugs1130 exactly. After that Ben was quiet for a bit 😂
@@silverfullbuster9177 yeah but ben doesn't come with the intention of trash talking. He just says what comes to his mind.
Ben's one of the best things that's ever happened to the UFC, and he hasn't even fought yet!
Dana was loving Ben by the end of the presser especially when he said he doesn't want the big fight or even the money fight he just wants to fight everyone and prove he is the best Dana loved it. And you could tell by the look on his face that's how he wants em all to be
Username0123456789 🌻Oh how I soooo agree😉👉🌻
Ben is actually pretty good on the mic.
Nah ben fights like a bitch. He hugs his way for a decision.
@@metalsquirrelgamer ya not wrong when Ben said he'd go to Russia and mount khabib and ride his back chatting USA USA dana came in his pants!! Shit I'm from the UK and that got my blood pumping
Never wanted T Wood to win so badly. let's go Woodley!
juicyd99 #Bandwagon
Friend Request I’m low key on the bandwagon too, after that till fight it’s hard to hate on woodley
I've always actually kinda liked woodley even if he said some stupid stuff. But man Usman is just so fiercly anoying. Like how fucking silly can a person be.
Friend Request if you read it correctly then he said he’s never wanted him to win so badly which implies that he is a fan of woodly he just hates the other dude
@@deadjuanbobmemes4672 thank you lol
Man idk why but i love re-watching this press conference hahaha everything is so different when you come back after everything
Listen young man.. I'm older than you.. Congratulations... Lmao ben
I have unpopular correct opinions Marty won that particular exchange though
Nathan Linke you might be alone on that one
@@nathanlinke8006 lol ummm no not at all sorry
Marty definitely won with the follow up, hit pretty deep, Bens face shows it. Ben was retired not so long ago.
@@TheSkecrow ben with destroy Marty from Nebraska
It's crazy to say but Usman/Marty is making me a TWood fan and I never thought I would say that.
Alex L me too.
Man the truth is regardless of his mouth T wood is a bad man.
You prolly just racist and it makes you nervous seeing black mennconfident and killing it, either way they both shit on you at life........ AND THEY ARE BLACK 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cannon C.j You’re also proven to have lower IQ’s compared to most races check the correlation to race and IQ. Also your race is full of absent fathers and matriarchies. Are those words too big for you?
@@Cahtuhwheels wtf??
Till wasn't there and got dry bummed from every angle.
Not really. Woodley gave Till credit for his toughness and heart and was saying that Usman hasn't got that in him.
Hahahaha
Ok... Im in on Askren! Dude is hilarious😂
I honestly want Ben Askren to succeed in the UFC, his plain but direct trash talk is entertaining to me.
Director of the Notification Squad you may be in luck. There hasn’t been a man to stop him yet & they all knew what his game plan was beforehand.
k l plus he probably fought a lot of roided up dudes like that russian dude who gave him a hard time.
He's funny like a clown or something but he always makes things about himself and when reporters question others he just intervenes and starts talking about shit that's revolving around himself lol :D
that's not trash talk. that's just confidence speaking honestly
definitely didn't go his way in the ufc but he had a good career regardless, especially with just wrestling
Who else did Ben win over. It comes natural like Conor or Chael. When he yelled go Marty at the Usman/Woodley stare down.
Very chael like. Smart and quick and not giving a fuck.
Shut the fuck man
Connor' trash talk is pretty below par. Just coming across as drunk and throwing expletives. Chael is the true master of trash talk.
@@TheAYM91 agreed.
@@chowderman43 if I find the fuck and it happens to be open, I'll shut it bud.
"You don't even believe that yourself" Woodley made a funny.
(IF) Woodley and Askren BOTH win, Dana is gonna OD on "Proper 12" & lay in oncoming traffic! 😂😂😂
Hahahaha and buried next to grandpa mcgregor
@@catbackjones7606 lololol
All of which I would look forward to.
He’ll HAVE to make a 165 division.
Underrated comment my friend!
Kamuru and Twood went 10 minutes over their trash talk time.
Ishmael Carrillo Jr Dana was clock watching during it.
@@chowderman43 what does being black have to do with my comment? Lol
@@yaakw 😂
disliked because I dont know who this Kamuru guy is... Tyron is fighting Marty Usman
This sounds like a setup for a "black people are always late" joke
I remember when everyone hated woodly, now marty is king of cringe
imagine colby vs marty!😂
Tyron is a funny dude until he talks about race
kris lo both are low IQ, Askren and Tyron are like the smarter better versions of Marty and Colby
He's put his foot in his mouth before, but I thought he held his own in this exchange with Tyron
Joe Rogan’s TRT shots this is fucking hilarious & it never occurred to me
I love how humble Pedro is
Askren is growing on me
Omg robbie lawler laughed
He’s honestly like the nicest guy
If Usman underestimates Tyron’s Striking he’s going to sleep.
It's the opposite. Woodley underestimating Osman big time
@@daverandle3575 I don't really think so, Tyron always talks a big talk. I think both fighters know what they are going up against.
808bboarder He won't. Just trying to be cool.
he will!😂
He is going to sleep if he pays attention makes no difference I hope his jaw breaks honestly
Can we just appreciate That Tyron Usman and Ben made the conference worthwhile 😁
The best ufc best conference I have seen period! Finally. Many of the fighters understanding that the press conference is an opportunity to financially get the most from their fight. Love it! More please!
Askren is frickin awesome. Shame it took so long to get him to the UFC.
AhPhoey yes. God speed though. It's better live than on Twitter. Ride Khabib and chant USA. He also shouted "go Marty" at the Woodley faceoff.
😂
This press was killer. I loved it. Also I may be outspoken but Anthony Smith looks like he knows he’s about to die.
Lmao😂
@Joseph Kobatake weve seen crazier shit.
Damn u fucked up
Kamaru is a prophet. He barely talked here and walked every bit of it, told Tyron exactly how he was going to do what he was going to do, and even gave Tyron great advice to not back up, which Tyron did anyway and got smashed. Kamaru vs Khabib!
A prophet?? Calm down Richard
@@georgeyacoub2075 cmon George clooney, you’ve never ascertained that welterweight strap in your life, so until then strap your leg up and keep kicking until the leg fully snaps. Then you’ll be on my level yeah? I’m a big, bad, machine- god decided it. You little dope.
Bens background comments while woodley and Usman were going back and forth is awesome
Dana keeps saying 165 not happening but if Ben gets a few more wins under his belt and stays undefeated then no doubt he will fight khabib at 165 next year.
Christian Vance Ben was selling it. I liked it. Get on his back and chant USA!
They could fight this year.
Make it happen Dana!
Yeah if Khabib wins vs Tony and asken gets more win. Definitely want to see that title bout
why isn't it at 162.5? that's in the middle of 55 and 70....?
tyron the notorious woodley talkin the best shit
Except there's a difference between the "notorious" Conor and woodley. Woodley can back his talk up... fact
@@basilb2007 like how he did vs. usman?
Imagine Colby was there in this press conference
Jimmy Lalhriatpuia haha
Lol the top would come off for reallllll
Mixo threuh2 te cu
and Conor ....... they'd need security then for sure lol
Imagine if connor was there
It's sad it took this long to get Ben in the UFC . He was great at the press conference. They need more guys like him.
they should always book tyron and ben on the same card
David Santiago tbh yeah haha
seena96 fingers crossed
ben has started to grow on me?? anybody else?
sid Yes. All of us. Marty unfortunately. I like authentic trash talk. Early Conor, silly Chael, and Ben was real with the other shit too. If you watch the face off between Usman/Woodley you hear him yell go Marty. I laughed so hard because I seen that before this.
Always liked him
Been a fan as well.
You are a little slow and late on this one! BEN is legit and will damage some fighters and is one of the best wrestlers in UFC instantly! Cant wait to see him fight in UFC! Lawler will be a classic regardless who wins!
He stays right in the sweet spot of trash talk, not too shitty and he doesnt carry on too long
This didn’t age well for Woodley lol
Did not age well at all. And I'm a Woodley fan.
Or Ashkren lmao
Lol This didn’t age well for Wood or Askren.
N it came out moldy for Marty. Lose lose for everyone at this point lol
Now it definitely didn’t age well
I’m a fan of Pedro Munoz now just because he’s such a nice guy
For all you non casuals... 2:51.. definitely the reporter that mistook Tumanev in a beanie for Robbie Lawler.. ha!
Was thinking the same! He has that same Morty voice.
You cover this sport and you thought that was robbie lawler 😂😂 i remember that
LMAO great catch. And he's stilll not wearing glasses
Yeaa
Noticed that too! Hahah
Dude this is actually pretty good, I'm on Tyron's side again hahaha
Damn, Usman kept every damn word.
Usmans facial expressions definitely fits someone named Marty.
KaMARu MARty
Was not hyped about Usman Woodley at first but after seeing this, cannot wait. Never seen Tyron so hyped and talking shit with his opponent, usually more about the UFC or the fans and complaining which is why I was never a fan but seeing him like this much respect can’t wait for the fight.
I'd never heard of Usman until right now, watching this video. I guess I'll have to look up the name. That was a good back and forth and by the end, I can say I'd be excited to see Woodley whoop his ass.
@@Motleyguts lol really didnt know who Usman was? Did you just start watching the ufc.
@@tylermaier148 I've watched UFC 1 to about UFC 200 or so and then just sort of lost interest. Probably around the time they stopped being on Spike TV I think?
@@Motleyguts lol i don't even like Usman but i know who he is. Fair enough tho. His trash talk is bad
@@jefft7705 I can still see Rampage calling out Rashad like it was yesterday.
Best presser I've seen Tyron do. The LL Cool J shit was hilarious.
2 years later, jeez how the tables have TURNED
That counter right hand that droped till off his straight right was probably the most underated strike of 2018. Pure skill was put into that shot.
Loving the way Ben promotes the fights.
R- Blaze instigates*^
Usman's responses to Woodly were ass. "How are you going to beat me tho?" "You'll see" "It doesn't matter"
Yeah, got called out on what he’s saying “it doesn’t matter” and starts talking about something else.
Because he doesn't know. He is just happy to have the opportunity. I doubt he beats Woodley.
For sure. Im intrested to see Askren's success in the ufc. But I see woodly beating Usman and Colby. Then heading up to middle weight afterwards. Him and Askren are too close to fight, and who hasn't Woodly beat in WW really?
Sheed Chooseme he still has Colby tho
@@tanggsyy4676 Colby will be his next fight. If not his last at WW before his move up to MW
This is pure GOLD
13:32 Askren literally foreshadows his entire ufc career perfectly.
marty and ll cool j... how did you earn two nicknames on the same day
Marty "the Nebraskan nightmare" Usman
I love the fact that Askren got demolished in epic style by Masvidal and Woodley got completely dominated by Usman
One of the most entertaining UFC press conferences of that year
One of the best pre-fight pressers EVER. UFC needs to stack more cards and do 6-8 fighter pressers more often. Love this.
ASKREN OWNED THIS PRESS CONFERENCE, INCLUDING DANA.
This is a way more fun Tyron Woodley than the moping version.
Loooool i died when Askren said to Marty u wanna introduce weapon or something 🤣🤣🤣
Tyron killed it! Lol.
3:00 Dana claims he was the one that wanted to bring Askren in to the UFC. LOL.
Ahhhh i see Woodley making a nice home for himself in Martys head
Hell, Ben already got comfortable in there
Mason N You could tell that woodley was trying to win mma fans appreciation
You hero got beaten.
Usman owns all
BRING THAT ENERGY
Where was the moment of silence for releasing GOAT Artem! disrespectful mofos I hope y'all lose
Dana never wanted Ben in the UFC. Because at that time he was protecting his biggest money making UFC fighter.... GSP.
Anthony smith looking like his cat just died. I think he’s scared 😂
One of the best press conferences. I laughed a lot. It makes me want to see the fights more.
Usman only got asked like 1 question this entire press conference lol
Would have run out of time if they asked him another one
zaid zuberi lol exactly
Lol he got asked more if u watch full conference
His name is Marty
Dana shuts down 165lb division so fast, for no reason. It would make the ufc so much more money. It'd make more title fights and give the fans more excitement.
Spicy Mustard HotDogs maybe because it wasn’t his idea.
Simple question what do u call the division
Spicy Mustard HotDogs nah he’s just Gunna lie and say it’s not happening to build anticipation and controversy then eventually introduce it :-p
@@damianjohn5995 haha your guess is as good as mine. Junior welterweight?
Spicy Mustard HotDogs Senior Lightweight
Tyron: How many kos you have? How many tko kos you have? Usman: same as you, 6 lol he wasn’t lying
I'm coming back to this video every few months now and it gets weirder and weirder every time I'm watching it
I love this guy. Marty 😂😂😂
Dana... when Ben wants your opinion, ... “he’ll give it to ya.”
One of the best conference ever
Tyron and usman heated conversation Ben from behind marty marty Usman holding back his laughs😂😂
