She seems like a very sweet person. Soft spoken. Will watch her next fight
she's beastly in the cage.
Manon is underrated and she loves dogs so supporting her all the way.
Meow
I don’t think she’s underrated, she getting the title shot. That says it all.
@@jorrba3934She got it after years of getting sidelined despite beating everyone including Rose iirc
I don't think she is, it is what is with her.
@@Manesson It normally takes years to compete for the Title. She did it the right way. You first beat everyone, then you get the respect, that’s how you build a good résumé on your record. Manon was never in a hurry for a title shot from the very beginning, She said it herself. She was never overlooked.
Manon is a very simple and fun person, it's unfortunate she doesn't speak english, but this interview is really great, I hope it will help english speaking MMA fans to know and appreciate her better, very nice job Ariel and great performance by Manon.
i bet on fiorot to win and it paid off. dont even watch womens fights but i felt like blanchfield was biting off more that she could chew with manon's style and strength. bank account sitting pretty right now due to manon
Manon 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🔥🔥🔥
This girl is a real problem! She has a good chance at becoming champion
YEP, i wish she was younger, what took her so long to get to the UFC?
I don't see it that way at all respectfully. Val can take her right now, no problem Semper.Fidelis
@@peacethroughstrength172 lol, she is more physical than valentina and at least good as her on striking, manon can take her right now too no problem, respectfully
@@lucian6857 don't forget Manon's excellent takedown defense as well.
@@Fitkid7672 trust me i don't, she is reaaaly balanced fighter, can't wait to see her goin maximum against grasso or shevshenko, because to me she really didn't take the risk to finished blachfield and loose it all because she is top 5 fighter for reallllly longtime and in the conv for title shot, she was intelligent , now she is
Bravo Manon pour ton dernier combat et le prochain pour la ceinture !!! 🏆
She is so 💕 lovely.
Maycee thinking she can beat Manon or she deserves a title shot is funny. Manon is gonna mauled her on her feet or on the ground.
Manon's favorite fighters are Khamzat and Dillashaw. The way she changed levels reminded me of Khamzat and the way she moved laterally to not get TD reminded me of Dillashaw.
Love they snowboard too!
Hope for her to be the first french UFC champion
Gane was the 1st UFC champ from france.
She is low key the cutest female UFC fighter now.
So low key it’s almost like it’s not true
veronica macedo.
She’s good, definitely interesting at 125 👍
She's really cool and cute. She looks younger than her age. I'm elated that she won. Did Erin try to steal her new sneakers or something? Because she beat Erin like she tried to steal her footwear.😂😂😂
Her fight against Blanchfield gave me Holly Holm vs Ronda Rosey vibes.
Super que Manon comprenne l'anglais, hâte qu'elle le parle aussi !
Je pense qu'elle le parle déjà pas trop mal mais qu'elle est trop timide pour le montrer
c est très bien qu'lle parle joliment le français, autant pour les oreilles des francophones que pour celle des allophones qui ont l'occasionde découvrir une langue autre que le globish
Gotta agree with her .. I can't imagine there is much interest here, MAYBE for a third fight just cuz many ppl had Val winning...but to do an entire TUF is wild no one gonna watch that
Manon is really cool!
Ariel pretending he can speak French at the beginning of the interview is a very Ariel thing to do.
His french seems legit tbh
The Beast 🥶
She like a female GSP! I Love her!
Massive fighter for that weight class. But her basics are crisp enough to be a top contender in the division.
I like Manon Fiorot and the way she fights, I am done with Rose and the other points fighter! Manon Fiorot is the real deal and hope she beats the crap out of everyone!
Always forget Ariel is french Canadian
French women are the best
Manon a géré mais Erin reviendra plus forte, y'a quand même 10 ans d'écart entre les deux
I'm french and this interview must have been a pain for all of you, sometimes they didn't even bother to translate 😆
Ça you translate your comment please ? 😂😂
@@vilya3577 pas compris
Very huge for the weight class!!She needs to fight in the big girl's weight class!!
whats with this trend of male coaches dating their star female pupil
When men and women get close, sometimes they fall in love. I don't see what is surprising
@@anthonysilver7104 Yeah, in any industry, it's always happening. Just natural
I think Manon beats Grasso, but doesn’t matchup as well against Valentina.
She has to fight barber or rematch rose before title fight
@lukethomasprteam LOL, never
Valentina : SKILL Grasso : HEART Manan : STRENGTH ROSE : ALL 3 .
@@jasonred3874 fiorot proved she isn’t ready for title contention yet. She needs a few more
@@lukethomasprteamBased on what she won every round over Blanchfield. Why would she Rematch rose lol?
How do fighters always have the best teeth
LMAO! I know, right?
Because they are veneers
I hate how Ariel doesn't do time stamps. Good interview though. She looks good
Manon !!! ⚔🇨🇵
I think she would do much better at bantamweight, she wouldn't need to cut that much weight and that division is kind of shallow.
I believe she fights in both divisions
A rare soft-spoken fighter. She seems very nice, like early Gina Carano.
🔥🇨🇵🔥🇨🇵
Why is the mma hour pushing maycee so much
Give it a brake with Maycee Barber ... Fiorot deserves the titleshot way more than her
Aldric !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
That's what I thought , Ariel speaks French . Why all those weird English interviews with GSP then ?
Cool pour les francophones le faite qu'elle ne sache pas trop parler Anglais lol Allez Marion 💪💪💪
If she's so good why didn't she try to finish Erin?
Because she's no stupid like you !
Fight IQ
Manon has heart and her striking is effective but I think Grasso/Valentina have too much in their arsenal. I also think the cut to championship weight will be hellacious, as will the 5 rounds.
her last fight was 5 rounds
@@Dylan-mn1qv Not at championship weight though.
What are you even talking about out? She weighed 125.25 with a sports bra and shorts on… if it was a championship fight they would have brought the tent out and she would have stripped down and weighed 124.5-124.75 naked.
Agreed! Those 2 will pulverize this lady here, truth. Semper.Fidelis
I think y'all underestimate her
I am French, I like Manon. But she must be careful because I think that Valentina Shevchenko striking is better than Manon striking. Manon still need to improve her striking accuracy.
snoozefest of a fight
blanchfield the female bo
I just came to see how many views these losers got
you must have an exciting life !
@@spongeBob77086 this video and the word " exciting " should never be in the same sentence
@@canadianbacon8220don't stay here, you're hurting yourself
She's strong, but she can't bust a grape to save her life. Throws twice as fast as Katlyn Cerminara but with the same amount of power. It's bizarre.
Boring af. Sit and wait counter point fighter. There would be no fight if her opponent did not initiate. Women's MMA is hurting, even more so than usual.
Baddest dude on the planet
lame joke. Stop it
Show some respect boy
@@Imhim247 He aint wrong though!
jealous
Always picking on girls ?
Blanchfield still deserves the title shot first..
No. Manon got to the top 5 before Blanchfield
troll
LMAO. You made my day ! Thx
She got 45-50 on all three judges Erin didn't win a single round on any card lmao 😂
And she fight better fighters than Erin @@gingerale2038
I can always use a power nap in the middle of a card.
