Iconic phrase in the mma community shelf 🙌🏽

No fuck shouting out juicman. He’s an open racist

I just wanna make her happy and my fans too¡🤡
Usman is a top athlete, well spoken, a role model, hall of famer already, you can only love the man
Yh you can only Love him being cringe and his foot stomping
@@thisismyname9510 Whatever makes ur boat float sucker
@@thisismyname9510 you a lame
Yearite well spoken 🤣 he talks so boring and terrible and dressed even worse 🤣 have u seen him dress up to the press conferences 🤣 he wears t-shirts so small his stomach part is open almost like open belly t shirts for women and jackets the same way 🤣👎🏾💯
hes one of the goats of the sport, quit hating@@thisismyname9510
As a Black man, Father and Fighter, I have the ultimate Respect for Usman & Tyson. 🙏🏽💪🏽🤝
As a human being you should respect everyone all races all men all women
They did great they too have my respect great interview
Mike really seems a lot more invested in this podcast, unlike his other ones where he always seem like a father figure or about to teach some life lessons - in this podcast he seems to just be in the zone talking fighting. I like it
Wisdom mike was the best mike, when he was on the toad back then and when his podcast was black and grey. This podcast is still badass but the other one was better imo.
The best episodes are always when he isn't high because it's more deep talk and reflection on life, mistakes, past and present.
@@topdawg182 Yea but we have seen more wisdom Mike than fight pal Mike - its refreshing
@@jcbtc you’re still here brother. don’t complain
@satoshi agree, the show was at its best when he had that one white football player co host
Usman took Tyron’s shine since he held the belt. Usman definitely proved himself after that first Colby fight. Hope he goes the DC route and starts becoming more involved in the media side of the UFC. He is so articulate and patient.
Has the voice and act for it nigerian nightmare of hollywood yo
He can try his hand at Light heavy weight or if Colby gets title somehow they can have trilogy
@@yoaregey7296 usman would die at LHW
he always talks like he’s presenting ghost stories around the campfire
@@prpleandgold09 wakanda style
usman is a real one, had his run and did great in his era, and might possibly win the title again, god bless you usman🙏 naija champion✊🏿
how will he ever win the title again?
@@Dazza01 Usman did not look the same in the 3rd leon fight, yet he still made it very competitive. Leon said just as much. Kamaru can still prove himself as a title contender if he does well in his next fight. The MMA community has a bad habit of calling fighters washed after 1 loss, and this is a prime example.
@@Dazza01 he gotta get through 3 or 4 guys to get a title shot, it takes a special person to become a champion again and he can definitely do it
@@805Goodland2 losses 📉
@@thefantom5171 This isn’t boxing bro. Great fighters can have a lot of losses. I don’t think he touches the 170 belt again tho
I Love you Mike! when you had izzy on and you said "Some people are born to fight, they just dont know it yet, they can be accountants and dont know theyre born to fight until they flip the switch" you changed my life!!! as a 34yr old man i always loved fighting, but didnt believe in myself because i thought you needed to be fighting at an early age to be a fighter, but you changed my perspective and for the first time ever im excited to be ALIVE! you saved me from myself. Thank you mike, I LOVE you.
Gotta appreciate Usman for being an active fighter and champion during his title reign. It was a really good performance against Edwards in the rematch considering that it was a career ending loss before that, which completely changes fighters...
I never thought Usman would lose honestly
@@thepistolguy859 he lost in the only way i could imagine, not by getting dominated, but simply getting caught. It’s inevitable in this sport and its unfortunate how it played out for him. IMO he wouldve been on his 8th defence by now had he survived that last 50 seconds..
@@thepistolguy859 same I thought Usman would retire without losing his belt.
And considering Usman was clearly injured in the fight and given that Leon fouled about 13 times(literally, could be more) and only 2 of the fouls were actually acknowledged
@Donny Rockett Only 2 of the fouls were significant. He lost. End of story. If he really was injured he shouldn't have rushed into the immediate rematch. No excuses.
Usman hasn't just been a phenomenal champion but an iconic ambassador to showcase what MMA is about. Respect, discipline and role model behaviour. I'm very excited about his comeback and will always support the Nigerian Nightmare through a win, a loss or a draw.
USMAN is the man no matter memes he had some classic title defenses

Kamaru one of the greatest welterweights in the ufc game ! Legit he’ll be back soon enough and when he is back and ready he’s a monster for the division Good ass pod!! Lets gooo ! Mike your the 🐐 for having all these greats and letting us get to know them all on a completely different level ! Usmans whole back story is something the really check out an listen too if you get a chance dude went through alot to get to where he’s at now and still be at this level !
Get Colby on now 😂 I like seeing that Kamaru and Colby are ‘frenemies’ with mutual respect after their last bout
Got a time stamp?
This is the best side of Usman so far.Good to see him talking like this. God bless him and family
I really like Usman now man, really chill dude.
New set up is SICK!! Y'all should do a segment where you hit the bag and exchange techniques or something. So much room for extra activities.
YES!!!
On the count of three name your favorite dinosaur 😂
I really liked the couch one better haha
Will always have time and respect for Usman. He not only says, but demonstrates that he's doing all this for his daughter. Inspiring.
New studio looks sick.
Mike is a rare pleasure to listen to,he speaks with brutal honesty and doesn't let an ego get in the way of what he's saying. I think that he speaks like a humbled man,only a person who has endured extreme hardships in life can be this way. I had to experience 12yrs on skid row to change my irresponsible destructive ways,and become the man I am today. I'm glad I had to go through addiction and being homeless,cause if I hadn't,things would be much different for me,I'd probably be dead.
“Errol smith” mike is hilarious 😂
Its nice to hear stories of people who come up in good families and continue on to be good people
Its so cool to see Usman with Mike chilling together, that's one episode I'm very glad to see.
“You’re going to try and wrestle bruv” “We’re gonna wrestle!” “Let’s wrestle let’s wrestle” did enjoy the build up to the second Edwards fight lol.
Don’t forget the mujahed fudailat animation 😂
Still didn't even cross 300 k ppv an utter flop of an event
True! That was brilliant 😂
Regardless of buys, it was still a pretty fun card to watch.
@@flyingmonke I still don’t understand how the ppv sales for that event affect Lebrons legacy
I love the interview and the new setup is lit 🔥, respect Mike!
Yes Sir! Love this new format! Bless Up! 🙏🏽
Man why does usman get hate? He is a respectful man
Kamaru Usman working his way back to the belt at his own pace is a scary thing. Look forward to seeing him get it done. He's up there with GSP as far as I'm concerned.
Nah
@@joesalsa4177 Yeah
Honestly he is right behind him
@@delmarwing4108 GSP avenged all his loses.
He didnt avenge his lost twice.(kamaru) So you cant put him as the goat of that division but he is second for sure no doubts abt that
kudoz to the studio... looks awsome tyson loving your podcast
Shout out to Uncle Mike and the entire Hot Boxin crew for all you do for the sport. And to Kamaru Usman for the show of love and respect to the King of Boxing, letting him know how much we cherish him and the inspiration we get seeing him.
Mike gets so alive when a fighter comes on
I know Kamaru and he’s speaking straight truth about how he got into mma and on how cool Rashad Evans is. One of the coolest dudes ever.
No Doubt!!! 👊🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸
Kamaru Usman is one of the greatest MMA fighters throughout history. What he has achieved so far guarantees him his place in the hall of fame. Can he win the title again? It's possible he becomes champion again he just needs a couple of fights to get the ko loss out of his mind. His last fight against Leon Edwards you could see he was too cautious because of the fear of being ko'd. No matter what he does I wish him well and I enjoyed watching him fight great fighter
Loving these Mike ads in between man 🤣 genuinely wholesome
Only comment that paid attention. He said he wasnt comfortable with all those heathens at Drink Champs 😂😂😂
You will always be the champ in my heart, and the best welterweight of all time. much love from Nepal to both the champs .
Kamaru. Your one of our kings! ✊🏾🇱🇾
Usman will forever be one of the greatest ever
Damn Kamaru you know what you need to do to be that top dawg again .. pullin for you bro .get back on the grind bro get that gold again!
You’re pulling for a racist?
lol
Leon is a tower of a man. It will be difficult to get it back.
Man Kamaru did it man. The history of the welterweight division in the UFC is very legendary. I think that the greatest fighters Pound-4-Pound are in the 170lb. I still think he should test the waters in boxing. I love watching him punch. Thank you Kamaru for putting on all those shows and carrying that torch through the years.
It’s such a great interview. Love it
I like this format. Reminds me of when hotboxing first started and before they sold out
Shoutout Kamaru and shoutout Mike for always bringing the 3 Kings on🔥🔥🇳🇬🇨🇲🇳🇬
He had Francis on?

Mike Tyson is one of the best to do podcast. He can literally do a podcast with every single person on the planet no problem

WELL you know GIRL I like old style loving to heart and tribe IS tribe
My fav Fighter of all time
That set up CRAZZYY 🔥
Love the new setup!
Usman is a straight G. I love how he talks about being a father which holds a lot of weight to him being a champ.
He’s a master at wrestling already , a trip to Thailand to sharpen up them hands and kicks 👊🏽
He’s got no knees for that
Thailand very overrated. Good for you and me who prolly practice MMA etc. for a while but not for a UFC Athlete
Brilliant podcast, sending ❤love to all xx
Usman really knows his boxing he definitely not a casual 🥊
Respect for usman he was a great champ I started watching ufc live with usman vs Colby first fight
You shouldn’t respect a racist
I would feel so weird sitting there with sunglasses 😂
Yea but these guys are not only late and wrong but were with you at least you not an holder of wrong principle and that REASON IS more hones well first and second not right but your less evil that not right too tho

love the new stage setup. looks dope.

Love the new set up!
Lmao it got so Akward when Tyson was telling Usman you dont need nobody. Nobody gonna have your back lmao 😂 that long Pause

@@griffinellison3409 when was he Racist ?
Crazy Usman said that garcia not being a good enough BOXER is what hes wondering. I was watching the fight and asking why Ryan wasnt using head movement more with feints and more importantly, his lack of using angles. I dont watch boxing, im self taught mma and mainly watch ufc but even I felt that ryan was very one dimensional in there. I know hes fast because the cobra bag on instagram stuff but maybe he was too relient on the speedy left hook. Tank looked even faster in there. It wasnt even competitive although a good watch
This set up is insane!! 👌
this new set is fire
Someone needs to start creating transcripts for these videos.
I like the old set up better
What a podcast 👏
New studio makes it awkward for the guest too involve both interviewers.
MMA is truly crazy. Every time the analysts and critics start talking about a new Goat of the division they end up losing like when Woodley lost to Usman and now Usman to Leon. This is why GSP should be the undisputed GOAT of the welterweights because he avenged every single loss then dominated after his last loss until retirement. Usman got close but GSP was on another level of dominance but also, regaining the title is a feat that is underrated in mma. Joe Rogan talks about Usman being the best because of the competition but I think he forgets the legendary names GSP beat throughout his reign and GSP also won the middleweight belt so I think the conversation for best 170lber ended when Usman lost to Leon in the last fight
"Listen to drinkchamps they ma boys" lol 😂
