One of those fights where you don't want either to lose
i fucking hate barnett he's about as annoying as tim kennedy both are boring smart asses so yeah not a problem for me if arlovski cracks open barnetts skull open ala cyborg
@Bearwolf Yeah I don't want either fighter to lose either. Also a fight that's hard to predict. And if it doesn't end early, this could be a classic
arlovski 100%
after watching the video, i don't hate barnett as much :)
Totally, they've both been around forever - legends of one of the worlds toughest sports. Both sweethearts too!
THAT VIDEO WAS AMAZING
Thought the exact same thing.
Agreed.
Barnett is a very interesting and tasteful martial artist.
770 views. Only true mma fans
Fake fans are busy jacking off watching the McGregor and Diaz post fight interview videos and praying Ronda will return while spamming
+Robin MX that's hilarious, nobody bought fight kits.
+Robin MX you speak the truth sir
+Robin MX mcgregor vs diaz was dope though

This was a fantastic video. Great work, UFC. Hard to see one of these guys lose now.
" yes coach yes coach " that respect barnett has towards his coach . Respect!
I swear, watching a mma fighter's journey from day 1 of training camp to the actual fight is amazing and inspiring to watch. It opens up what is possible if you have the love and support behind anything you want to do. Great videos, UFC, well done.
This is really well made, good work!
Did I just see Cerrone spar with Arlovski? Cowboy is just a straight badass.
Saying that russians ad belarussians are the same is more like saying that americans and canadians are the same. But Arlovski still wears a cccp shirt which is pretty funny.
CCCP was Soviet Union - which was Russia and Belorussia and Ukraine and Estonia and ... you get the picture. Back when he was a Kid he was in the USSR/CCCP
Russians and Belarusians are the same people numbnuts.
Go USA
РУССКИЙ ВИТЯЗЬ He did not stop Zhukov marshall .Simply the war was over.
Russians and Belarusians are one people! Only Russians are crazy but good people , Belarusians are the opposite of fear.Russian man is a man shirt to give the latter , the Belarusians are envious and greedy people!Belarusians like to complain,to talk about their problems, love that they were sorry. Russian not so!The Belarusians kept,and very terpeliva. Russian suffer to a certain point.... We are Russian long harness, but quickly then eat:) I would say that Russia is big brother of Belarus. And the USSR is another story :) There were all brothers. On this who was born in USSR and lived will never forget!
When I saw that Josh was speaking Japanese, I had to double take! That dude is so fuckin smart it's unreal
I like the vibe of Battle Lines.
these videos are awesome. UFC stepping up their game
New owners , new production taking over already! That video was amazing!
Stoked for this fight!
Wow. Josh Barnett's coach - That old silver haired black samurai is my inspiration!! Guy's like a super hero. He seems sharper physically and mentally than most 20yr olds. What an amazing human being. RESPECT!
love the old school aspect of this fight, just sit back and enjoy
i love these vids
This was so nice
What a video!
Cowboy spars HW's , what an animal, preparing Arlovski for a fight :P
@18:19 ABSOLUTE GREATNESS..thank you Jackson & Wink
everytime i get really pissed i stand up and do that throat slashing motion with my thumb to my throat over and over again. it makes me feel better
this is amazing
I will be at the show and I' m hyped right now. First I thought I would go with Arlovski.. but I like Josh's attitude too. Guess it will be a great fight!
Arlovski has got hands and a well rounded game but he will be put on his back and hurt. Like both these pioneers.
Josh Barnett is my grappling idol.
Josh Barnett is my favorite fighter of the two of them but I feel Barnett could take this loss far better than Arlovski could. So kinda split between the two of em. Hard fight for me to pick a winner at unlike the recent other events.
Bolt Thrower shirt, respect.
legends.
Is it just me or does it seem like jacksons gym has quite a mean environment
I kinda got the same vibe even how cowboy was joking around with arlovski felt a little cold.
They got the infamous Jon Jones there. It has to be a mean environment lol.
+Joe Hardy yeah I think Cowboy and Arlovski have a weird relationship. When Arlovski fought Overeem, Cowboy tweeted out that he already knew who would win and it wouldn't be close, then when Arlovski lost, Cowboy tweeted something like "Called it".
Back when the ufc actually put together good videos
Josh Barnett hires a nutritionist *Takes him to a local burger joint and watches him drink a beer.
Cowboy Bebop fan, good for you Josh!
I don;t know why but I find it extremely cool Josh Barnett likes Cowboy Bebop
This documentary much more better then FOX's road to the octagon stuff
"we're not here to take part, were here to take over!" - Autumn Winkeljohn
Arlovski when he was champion he was so fast but one thing he had was footwork and i see it in training here that footwork alone was one of the things that made him watch back in the day i always wonted Randy vs Arlovski ya
always wondered if greg jackson used to fight pro. or compete jujitsu. cause he's a hell of a coach. and only experience can give you that.
gonna be a great fight. too bad this didn't happen 7 years ago.
Andre 'Amir Khan chin' Arlovski
lol good 1
250 pounds a whole lotta fist would knock anyone out with a clean shot
+Mark Trim True. But there are some HWs with chins designed for that weight. Like Rothwell or JDS. And then there's guys who are amazing but with chins not made for HW strikes like Overeem or Arlovski.
wish them both well
Can we all say that cerrone is a fucking beast.
Yes, we can!
FFS Josh Barnett is so fucking wise!
am i high or is this just funny af 10:59 took his dog like 20 seconds to walk to the door while he just looks at him lol
MMA OG's
I've never spent a $$ on any MMA PPV etc.. But this might be my first, I can't wait to see this fight. I love bother fighters but I think somehow Josh is going to come out with the win.
I don't have a clue who will win this one but it should be a good fight & im looking forward to it. Both seem like very likeable guys. that young girl, the daughter of a trainer can pack some punch, i expect we will see her in the octogon in the future
Damn, how old is Arlovski's dog? That thing is struggling.
As old as Josh Barnett's dog!
Sports fan1 Is that a punchline? I didn't catch the "zing".
That was adorable when he patiently held the door open for him. He's definitely an old timer :)
Josh Barnett is one gorgeous man
calm down
Ooooh snap 4K? If you can afford these cameras get 60FPS for your fightcards.
Barnett with a Bolt Thrower shirt on. Fuck yes!
I'm going for josh. but both are well rounded. josh though is more mentally strong
I didn't know about wink's secondary school. That was a pretty dam cool story. As a cota i wish more schools were available like that.
Im pissed that i didnt get a ticket for this event. Thats life i guess.
Song name 18:05 ?
Mind says josh, heart says andrei. Wait maybe it's the other way round??? I don't know who I want to win I like them both equally 😭
Josh Barnett might be the toughest nerd on the planet.
I think Josh is gonna take it..but ..I like them both as fighters good luck to both of you men...
fuck I just saw Andrea side of the story ..two good men going into battle ain't that a sham but whoever wins I hope they get what they want
"You're already dead" lol Japanese fans must have loved that. This should be a great card. Rooting for Orlovski, but like Barnets wife I like em both.
Did Josh really say "You have a weaker ground game" It sounded like "No De Ashi Barai" or something to me.
Huge fan of both fighters but gotta go with #teamAmerica #teamBarnett
Do Andre and Alistair fight in the same camp? Because they fought each other
One of these Dinosaurs is definitely going to sleep in this fight
14:44 now I know why Josh was so successful in mma all them years "LA SANTE MUERTE"
Damn for as long as Barnett's been in the game, you'd think he'd have a nicer house. So sad these fighters dont get paid their worth.
When Barnett was in Pride he reminds me of a giant Gordon Ramsey
i had a beer today barnett fucking bad ass lol
Vulcan Mind Meld....Barnett RULES!!!!!!!!!!!
humble fighters
+Tinotino31 lol stupid bandwagon fan
+Tinotino31 lol you have such a myopic view on this fight it's so painfully obvious you don't know shit.
who do you think will get the knock out?
So true what he said that top 4 fighters in Pride were better than UFC heavyweights champions(Every true MMA fun will know which 4 our them)
Did anyone else notice the guy in the background holding an M-249 S.A.W. at 11:52??
first scene is a videogame
barnett speaking japanese... impressive..
What type of car is that that's parked out the front at the start, and is later seen being driven around by Barnett?? Gotta get me one.
is arlovski still not sparring with overeem?
Cowboy Bebop!
Cerrone is sparring with a heavyweight,so I don"t think we need to be surprised that he is finishing all these welterweights
Barnett was a fucken Monster in PRIDE!! no doubt
come on andrey you mast win this time.
Arlovski the Pitbull💪
Barnett like cowboy bebop! He's my favorite fighter now!
Josh Barnett with no steroids should be interesting...
Josh "Dad Bod" Barnett
Josh without the roids has been pretty good
catch-as-catch can
Barnett is looking in very good shape AA is gonna get starched
I thought it was McGregor on the thumb nail for a sec😂😂
because you dont know anything about mma?
+I tried to heal him but he was already dead fat neck
+Tanvir Islam proud of mama
+Ashly Carter I'm your dAddy
+Tanvir Islam yes you sloppy fuck
Autumn vs that quadriplegic for ufc 300 make it happen dana.
by looking at barnetts shape he shud fire his nutritionist
well, who knows maybe genetics have some impact, he was never built up and look for other fighters like DC
he's gotta stay big, he's a heavyweight
10 years ago this would've been the fight to make. at their age now they on the way out. Hope Barnett wins.
За фразу на 11:30 минуте Арловскому желаю улететь в нокаут и закончить карьеру.
Cowboy spars with Arlovski? holy shit
LIVE ON UFC FIGHT PASS
Fuck yeah Bolt Thrower
I miss Pride FC :(
barnett likes pro wrestling so i like him
тяжко сейчас Арловскому
barnetts coach looks like a 25 year old with a grey beard haha
Barnett is gonna get merked, Jackson Wink fighters come way too prepared (R.I.P Carlos Condit :()
WAIT A MINUTE HOW COME THAT THEY DIDN'T CENSOR SOME PROFANITY WORDS ON UFC BATTLE LINES ARLOVSKI'S SEGMENT?? 😱😱😱😱
