In the menacing Muay Thai lands teeming with dark-skinned tyrants, Jonathan Haggerty is an odd one out. Fighting in the world’s premier striking promotion this audacious farang demolishes Thailand’s best talent and keeps collecting championship belts. As 'The General' plans to transition to MMA, let’s recall Haggerty's triumphant campaign across the merciless thai boxing rings.

What's up with all the race baiting?
Muay Thai < Jujitsu

Forgot this guy man hes beaten twice by rodtang
The British media doesn't even promote this guy
they all in ther ass of hamilton
It's criminal mate
That's because boxing is the major combat sport here.
ANYTHING good - that is inherently British - is getting suppressed by the asshat media.
Is muay thai popular in britain?
Probably one of the best fighters the UK has ever produced.
Leon is jamaican @@user-qx9gr7kz6x
Love leon but hes more of a point fighter. haggerty out their to kill @user-qx9gr7kz6x
I'd say him in muay thai, Joe calzaghe or tyson fury in boxing and Leon Edwards or Bisping or Aspinall in mma. The funny thing (not that it matters ofc) is that everyone of them, except fury and haggerty, is not 100% ethnically British. Calzaghe is half italian, leon is Jamaican, both Aspinall and bisping are half polish.
I did not know that Haggerty was a British name
@@user-qx9gr7kz6x he said one of the best not THE best although haggerty has definitely accomplished more than leon atm
This guy's last five wins are one of the best streaks we've seen in striking recently. Absolutely insane.
Yep, I go to train at his gym often and he really is class. That being said I thought his fight against Sam-A was a step to much to soon but it clearly wasn’t.
lololol Gtfoh, theres plenty of other examples
In all striking? Absolutely not
Whatever! He lost to Superlek and Rodtang twice and never came back lol! He sucks
I agree with the previous commenter, Rodtang beat Haggerty and so did Superlek and Superlek outsmarted both. Plus there are other Thais in other divisions such as Tawanchai and Thanh Le 😂😢
The way he learned from those liver shots and implemented them into his fighting shows he's switched on and is absorbing information from every fight. Some fighters get stuck in a style and hold on to bad habits which is what sets the top guys apart.
No 1 England has
@@osloreal7042 Can't forget Liam Harrison. He's getting to the end of his career now whilst Jon is carrying it on.
this guy is a UK Legend. He should have a movie or something about his life, i love how hes so grounded and humble.
Get your tongue out of his arse. Hes just a Thai boxer big woop
he may be a good fighter but in the cage things are different. He will be put to the ground and chocked like many were done this way. All respect for him but he is not a threat. A threat is somebody who knows how to wrestle
@@Hgvpuncher heres always a pro who knows it all in the comments.
He said nothing wrong but exactly what would happen, but not vs andrade tho he iš nit grappler@@user-mz4vl7yf8e
The guy is a UFC fan boy. Dont mind him.@@user-mz4vl7yf8e
The British Champion that is completely under the radar. Shameful that he doesn't receive the plaudits he deserves.
Thanks for the new word… never have I heard of plaudits.
@@adamblackman6660I am not sure whether I am being thanked or mocked by that reply.
@@jamesrobert4106 IMO you're being thanked mate
@@jamesrobert4106 You certainly deserve plaudits for the use of obscure words. I’m adding it to my word bank, for sure… it’s a pretty fun one to say…. Thanks again.
@@adamblackman6660 My pleasure 🙂
This is one of my favorite channels of all time. The writing, the editing, the narration.. 10/10/10. Keep it up my friends 💪🌟
Sounds like it was written by AI
Thank you SO much for this video!! I have been an MMA/Boxing fan for some time, living less than an hour away from where this man was born, yet was completely unaware. Amazing! A new fan here.
Man, those tomahawk elbows are simultaneously terrifying and beautiful. Elbows, in all their forms, are my favorite technique, but the tomahawk is an especially difficult one to land, and Haggerty makes it look effortless.
The reason why I like watching Mark 'Elbowlardo' throw them bows.
elbows looks dumb and surely illegal, no mater the rules
@@BigidiBoom this your first ever Muay Thai vid? How did the algorithm even get you here?
@@BigidiBoom lol. Muay Thai employs 8 limbs.
@BigidiBoom I think you're on the wrong video. Olympic TKD is what you're looking for 😂
Haggerty is a killer, recent accomplishments are out of this world!
His recent success is due, in part, to bypassing the hydration testing of ONE and being matched against smaller opponents at the very end of their respective careers. Using the PED's that his Thai opponents disdain has also played a big part.
@@John.Flower.Productionsbig accusations
@@John.Flower.Productionsthai fighters are juiced to the gills for cheap, WTF are you talking about 🤣
Lol Haggerty wins or loses almost everything on decision. Comparing him to Topuria who is not.even the same weight class, and a complete mixed martial artist is an absolute joke
@@gigachad6885 Which Muay Thai fighters in ONE _are juiced to the gills?_ More specifically, which ones that Haggerty has fought?
I have nothing but respect for Haggerty. Dude never gives up and his style is spectacular.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. They're literally education of sport.
38:37 "and the dance of the living dead reached its climax". This channel is so good.
Oh yes, absolutely! My favorite!
What about 39:39 "2 pairs of gravitating cojones" 🤣
Agreed. For a fairly young channel, they're doing it right. Class Act
@@kwest-fri commented on that one too. Ya just cant make this shit up but they did and well delivered too
19:21 "An avid admirer of British omelets" lol
Muay thai is the most entertaining combat sport, absolutely brutal.
even better live
Pure brutally Brutality
i don’t understand how rodtang can eat those shots. Wonder what an mri would show
@@donsimons9810 heavy damage for sure
It really is, I don't understand how it's not popular in America. It's exactly what most mma fans are looking for. Hope this sport gets notoriety in North America soon.
Holy sht you guys make the most exciting sports coverage and docs. Thanks so much
Never heard of jonathan but this video cap was awsome🎉 This was fun to watch. Thanks❤
"Eats shots like Cormier cake and chicken" 😂
Best fight channel on YT my absolute favorite!
A shout out to DC over at UFC

"because you know I'm all about that cake"
@@dion8962 or KFC ?
huge respect for this guy.. what a warrior and only 26
Great warrior indeed, almost as good as Rodtang....
Excellent show. Thank you ✌️.
Best martial arts channel on YT what a video, without this channel I wouldnt hear about this guy. One championship is a promotion to start watching indeed.
I love watching Haggerty, he has such heart. From those legendary fights with Rodtang, to Lobo, what an amazing journey and accomplishment. He is definitely a worthy and deserving champion
That Lobo fight was INTENSE.
yh..and he should have been KOd by lobo if the ref didn't help him to recover
He was counted 8 according to the rules. The ref didn't help him at all!@@gilsoftcoder2387
Was there live. The place was electric, I couldn't speak afterwards
The Kryptonite for The General is The Iron Man...Both of them are great fighters
Brother- one of the greatest fight videos I've ever seen !!! Your Editing skills are OFF THE CHARTS !!! REALLY AMAZING - THANK YOU. 🤝🙏
I love haggertys style! His form and posture are very clean
Haggerthy is a beast! Cant wait for him to go mma
This is a great video. I loved the way you built up JH’s opponents. They deserve the praise but it helps put JH’s greatness into context and builds the epicness of the video.
Best I have ever seen, thanks
rodtang and haggerty fights are the best to watch
Rod tang the best
@@williamdebault2524Superlek enter the chat
@@williamdebault2524 Definitely
@@williamdebault2524 Rodtang lost his last fight. his momentum is gone
@@jboi6398he should of won that fight even the owner thought he won plus superlek missed weight and Rodtang is still a champion
Started watching UFC in late 2007. Chuck vs Wanderlei is one of the first fights I remember watching on ppv. Went to UFC 101, 169, and 288 in person. Huge fight fan. ONE championship is very clearly the best promotion in the world right now for fight fans. By a long shot.
For Thai yeah but there mma isn’t as good as ufc or bellator
@@christophermorrison2626 after UFC is with WWE under TKO the fights have already lost the integrity due to the fact that it is more of a show not a fight now
@@tarrig yeah i wonder how tony ferguson must of felt when he was reading the script about him going on a 7 fight losing streak
not even close.
Well, that was one hell of a program. Thanks for posting it. It was fun watcbing!
An amazing display of hard work, real grit and success.
I've been following Jonathan for a long time. He's a warrior. Love his front kick and boxing, deadly elbows. If he gets some BJJ would be awesome.
He has a background in bjj and his dad owns an mma gym
@@guinevere5666He will get absolutely fucking wrecked by wrestlers.
@@thisisgettingold i mean izzy and alex were kickboxers before they jump to mma. If they can adapt, im sure he can too.
Haggerty has no limits the complete warrior, their is no stopping this man, love watching him,he has it all .
w/out submission defense, he could easily get choked in mma
@@gilsoftcoder2387so what? Hes a muay thai fighter. Youre just a hater
@@user-ql8lt2uy5sthe title literally says “moves to mma” 😂
@@poindextertunes perreira and izzy did the same thing
@@user-ql8lt2uy5sand you think that he would stop Topuria's takedown attempts? 😂
Incredible athlete and incredibly humble and an absolute credit to his craft.
JH got the respect from the whole South East Asia, he is without doubt a WARRIOR! 🔥
Best fighter Great Britain has produced for decades. Across all disciplines. I’m looking forward to following his path to legendary status (guaranteed) 👍🏻
Great video! Love those. Jonathan Is one of my favorite fighters ever. Amazing style and technique!
So much awesome combat quality in just one video !!!
Haggerty vs Dekkers would have been the "fight of the century"! amazing, powerful fighter.
Dekker was on another Level. Dekker was a real live psyco thai berserk man. He would literally kill him😂😂😂
@@carlospalacios8808 did you think the guys Haggerty took out were regular human beings?? 😂
Dekkers was my favorite fighter, But Haggerty is right next to him..@@carlospalacios8808
@@carlospalacios8808Dekkers is my favorite fighter of all time. But, Haggerty is most DEFINITELY on his level.
Hell yeah that would be something to see!👌
He's a killer! Always Awesome to watch.
The haggerty' s Muay Thai style is unstoppable machine!
Dudes an awesome fighter, was stoked to see your video on him! Great work as always!
This is one of the best videos i have seen on this channel.Please start making longer videos
O'Malley must be crappin his pants. Dude is savage. Those elbows are nasty!
Different sport tho
O'Malley has the striking, and DEFINITELY has the distance control and footwork! Haggerty has the power with kicks (obviously), but Suga has knockout precision! I think Suga is just too crisp, and with his master level distance control and footwork, Haggerty will struggle to find him, will then start overreaching, which Suga will take full advantage of! But, that's just my opinion because let's be honest, none of us really KNOW who would win!
Great ...Willpower, Power and Humility make this guy one of the best fighters I've ever seen👏
Brilliant. Will watch more of this one.
"Two pairs of gravitational cohones!" 😂👍 Awesome video. Outstanding commentary. ❤️🙏
So cool to watch Haggerty and his determination and respect for the art.
Thanks for great content, having me introduced with this legend. Respect!
Great video, it's unbelievable how little recognition this guy gets. Been to two of his fights in Thailand and it's like poetry watching him fight.
O'malley vs Haggerty i would pay to see that !!!
hag kos him
Sean isn't a wrestler but he would wrestle-fuck him.
MMA I got Sean even though I’m not a fan of. Stand up only Sean gets absolutely wrecked
@@brettbunke9096Sean ain’t got all that much ground game
@@tomhorton152 lol because he just knocks everyone out. Notice how no one really takes him down? He has good takedown defense, thats why. Just because he looks like a complete moron, and has a shit personality people like to downplay his skills. Hes a damn good fighter, and I think he smokes Haggerty.
Love this guy. Every time I see his thumbnail I click without hesitation and thats a rarity from me. His fights are electrifying to watch. Love to see him in mma.
Fantastic video. Respect to this warrior. Just watching the techniques in this was great. Striking, legs, elbows, boxing... It all comes into its place when done correctly. I think this video highlights that journey.
"standing back up was beyond his processing capacity" that one got me..
"Dark skinned tyrants" is something I dont think I have ever heard nore will ever hear again Edit: I did not want to make this about racism or anything. Just a compilation of words I have never heard
Tired of these "urban" fellas
0:46 but the antiwhite Word coloniazer
Yes, there is no reason to bring race into this. The Thai fighters he Speaks of are true warriors.
@@arautus whites are the only ones who don't bring race into it, everyone else roots for their people and against others because of their race.
@@arautuswhy is being called dark skinned an insult? I wouldn’t be offended being called light skinned
Let’s go you finally did the general.
I absolutely lost it when he played "help" by the beatles. This commentator is class
Great video!!! Recently, I've just been following the UFC but learned here that MMA is filled with talent and guts!!!
Vote sport videos is what makes my lunch breaks short 😂😂..thanks for this video
Ong I love this channel
Haggerty It's a beast. thank you for video 🤘🏿🔥
Haggerty coming to MMA? Oh my god this is amazing... following his father's footsteps and expanding his territory, truly like a GENERAL
Haggerty & Roatan, my absolute favorites. I admire Jonathan so much, yet am so inspired by the Tank as well.
This young lion has been in some absolute bangers!
This guy is not just highly skilled but has HEART on another level!!
Fantastic video, paced brilliantly with a great narrative.
Total admiration for such a warrior as well as his many formidable opponents.
He really torques his strikes, great to watch
Great video
Amazing video probably the first long 42mins vid i have watched without jumping bits, awesome editing
Excellent, humorous and pro editing. Kudos! Keep up the good work! Thank you!
Moving up a weight class to get away from Rodtang was a good move for him.
Yea Rodtang is made of titanium and has ridiculously good cardio.
Great fighter... to be fair, he was fighting Sam-A and Nong-O at the end of their LONG careers, and lost twice to prime Rodtang. But very excited to see how he goes in MMA.
Yup, he is my favourite to watch but he isn’t the best but very close to it.
he will be chocked really fast , MMA is different than Muay Thay. If you fight against someone who knows how to wrestle and you don't... you are done
And he lost to Superlek but he’s still great no doubt I feel bad he’s about to lose his belt to Carillos humongous Scottish arse 😂
Absolutely phenomenal fighter! If I'm honest I'm blown away by your skill and dedication, huge respect mate 🙏😎👊
This guy is a phenom !!! Have always been amazed how ferociously he fights.
I love how savage the fighting is but how respectful they are to each other.
They dedicate their lives to their craft and want their opponents to give them a test and challenge. The midfight smirks and fistbumps are always cool, like "Bro, you got me, fuckin' well done mate"
Not everyday is your day....sometimes its someone's day.
I thought I’d watch some of this video & now I’m 17 minutes in. It’s epic. Well played on putting it together.
Doesn’t get enough recognition in the uk for his achievements Haggerty, but he is 1 of the most technically gifted , hard working , tough b4sterds the uk has ever produced 🙏🏽 absolute legend to the people who know of him and I hope he has much success with the rest of his career 👊🏼💪
Rodtang was made in a lab in swear 😂
Rodtang he was born punching his head through
The left hand to the liver from Rodtang had Haggerty lookin like a dog shiting on the grass 😂 but for real, I love Haggertys striking, and if he can develop a good enough ground game I think he will do alright in mma. However so far his opposition, other than Rodtang and Nong-O (who were outside of the "prime" when he fought him), I haven't seen him face enough tough opposition to say he's up there with guys like O'Malley and Topuria. Great video as always VoteSport, your one liners are top notch comedic gold 😂
Fr the next vids gonna be comparing Terrence Crawfords boxing to topuiras lol
best commentary i have heard in a long time , respect
Jesus! I Love This Great Fighter! Inspiration on Maximum Level!!!
This is a British treasure, I'm Portuguese and it's one of my favorites fighters and I follow since the beginning 💪💪👏👏
Respect
Haggerty and Rodtangs 3 fights were epic.
3 fights? 🤔
2***
There needs to be another one!
we need a third
Man, i love this channel
Impressive.. will watch his fights!
Man I hope he goes to ufc he's a beast
He has no interest to go to the UFC!! He'll lost 2 belts (Muai thai and kikickboxing) for an uncertain futur in the145 lbs category (with great opponents as Topura, Volk. etc). He has everything to loose leaving the One FC!
Unless he can wrestle no point going to UFC !
@@user-bj2zu2ex1ynot true, he’s said for years he would like to fight in the UFC one day and if he gets a couple of wins in MMA in ONE FC, Dana would probably pay big money to sign him especially with the U.K. being one of their bigger international markets.
He’s getting paid heaps more at One, everytime he fights he gets the bonus. Don’t see him switching over
"The British colonizer." Really man?
Based
Yeah that was a dead one
like cool you heard it on Black Panther, also, you're taking the worst of a nation/race and joking about it? So I guess "The Muslim Terrorist" and "The Black Warlord" and "The Japanese Rapist Murderer" and "The Homosexual Aids-spreader" are all fucking jokes to you then????? Like for fucks sake. FOR FUCKS SAKE
WOW, this dude is a true fighter.This dude just doesn't stop. No breaks no breathers, Just back into the fire to duke it out. Just pure fire, determination and tenacity. What a champion.
I dont watch muay thai too often even though I do like it. However I ALWAYS tune in when Haggerty is fighting.
Haggerty only plans on going to MMA for a fight against Fabrício Andrade, who he easily beat in kickboxing. His recent success is due, in part, to bypassing the hydration testing of ONE and being matched against smaller opponents at the very end of their respective careers.
No grappling? 😂😂 Juijitsu and sambo fighters would beat him every time. He should avoid them at any cost
I don't think so. Do you even know about Alex Pereira? He is extremely elite at what he does and can beat anybody. Only when faced with someone as incredible mighty mouse will these elite have problems
@@gagagugu1018pereiras been training mma since 2014-2015 and has earthshattering power so not a good example
@@christophermorrison2626 John has dynamite in his hands... Hes put down guys that dont get dropped.

I’ve met his sister in London, she was working as a drink seller at a concert. I was a bit shocked, since haggerty is a legend in Muay Thai. he should have definitely been in a position for her to be financially free, by now, as good and as legendary as this guy is, in Muay Thai.
Extremely well made video, liked and earned a long lasting sub for sure!
