That was about as clean as a punch could get, with the sweat bouncing off of Masvidal's head. So cinematic
Masvidal: Usman is a soft hitter Also Masvidal on the ground: What happen
Very Rocky!
It was amazing.
It’s water and I bet his corner is regretting that. Did it for the wrestling but no wrestling happened in the second
Looked like something out of Hajime no ippo
Usman: starts hanging out with Gaethje and Ngannou, and commences blasting everyone into oblivion. Masvidal: starts hanging out with Jake paul, and gets "Ben Askren'd."
Lmao hurrrrd dat
I saw this comment on another video
Sleep Jesus
Masvidal fan here. It's true while Usman was on the path to discipline. Jorge was partying with KZheadrs and rockstars. As the old English saying from the 1500's goes. Birds of a feather flock together. Be careful who you keep company with or their bad habits will rub off on you.
copied
Kamaru just baptized the state of Florida with the sweat from Jorge's beard.
Lmfao
So satisfying!
ok
@@camtranquoc3745 mad?
I wonder how big of a smile Ben Askren had at that moment.
weird night of karma, Masvidal got knocked out cold for the first time by a wrestler, and weidman breaks his leg against the guy everyone used to call "the next Anderson Silva"
@@KrikZ32 Yeah, i thought that too.
I doubt Askren is that excited about it. Ben doesn’t seem like that type of guy
@SeventhSon It's not Weidman's fault that he celebrated. If you rewatch the fight, he actually goes to him afterward to show respect. I don't think anyone should celebrate an injury regardless of win or loss, period. He simply didn't see the injury at first, all he saw was the ref wave his hands and declare him the winner, that's all.
@@andrebohnstedt9740 Weidman celebrated because he won. Not concerned about How he did it.
That punch was straight out of a Rocky movie. Insane.

Hahaha thats exactly what I said to my bro

Facts 😂😂
Masvidal kept his hands down, didnt respect usman power.
At this point, you'd have to be high level already for him to even consider talking to you.
@@carlosmartinezz3022 he did it in fear of takedowns i suppose
@@hearwho8438 yup
Those punches were SUPER NECESSARY
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏
Well I agree with your name
Thats what I said!!!
Exactly
He done it to Ben
Scariest thing about kamaru is that he's in his 30s and he's only getting better.
he's only 33
Lol everyone is different obviously, and he’s nowhere near past his prime, but that’s usually on the tail end of prime years. He’s a beast physically though and hasn’t taken much damage so he’s solid.
Literally 99% won’t see this but I lost my job due to covid. They shut down all the restaurants in Cook county which then led me to loosing my apartment. I'm currently living out of my car which I try and make the best of. I've applied to a bunch of places I'm hoping to get a call back. if anyone could help me with whatever you could bc I'm needing stuff like hand warmers which I stuff my clothes at night when it's cold. Also cheap burgers/fastfood. I know times are tough for everyone these days but if you're able to help me I have paypal username pay2winlife If you're unable to help I totally understand thank you ❤️

Nearly slapping lol
I despise Jake Paul. But after DC saying next time I see Jake Paul I smack him, and he stood there pointing his finger trying to play dad to Paul. Unfortunetly for DC not everybody cares for his championships. He always trying to play big brother/dad figure to other fighters, but in reality it just shows his level of ego. And he cant stand that youtube idiot like Jake Paul doesnt respect him.
M. Olender I agree with everything you said about DC but I hate Jake Paul more so...lol

DC didn't do anything.

Yea you knew when the Commies went 0-3 it was gonna be a good night
Someone had to say it

Unexpected and spectacular.

Wasn’t really unexpected

I’ve never seen so much sweat bounce off someone’s head like that
you havent seen Wilder vs Ortiz then
It was water.
He got baptised by Usman’s punch.
It was so beautiful!
@TahaHassanXT oh I didn’t see that and I was watching in between rounds you sure?
If he beats Leon and then Colby again.. That's it, he's the welterweight GOAT!
Eh I think he has to beat Leon again too but I agree 👍👍
how quick do people forget , gsp.....
Definitely he dominated and retired Woodley, GSP was scared to fight Woodley with another win over Colby and improved Leon Edwards he’s the welterweight goat
@@ashwinchidambaram4100 I took his achievements into account
@@ashwinchidambaram4100 its how usman is doing it thats making people say this and its a good arguement usman to this point relative to gsps career has beaten better opponents as champ than gsp and his future looks even brighter

Masvidal vs askren in ghost form
Ben will be happy that Masvidal will be the highlight knock out clip....!
That was insane how Usman Ko'ed a top level striker stand up while he is a wrestler
He’s an mma fighter dawg
And one of the best ever after tonight
not really insane. it was more impressive that he did it to someone who rarely ever even gets knocked down. wrestlers are actually really good at striking over time. they have the work ethic to pick it up (justin, johny hendricks, jon jones, josh emmit, Tyron woodley the list goes oooonnnnnn) and they have the core strength to generate power. and the biggest thing they have might be the element of trickery. their opponents have to worry about a larger target area to protect. they get free head shots (head shots without feinting etc) because their opponents cant use a high guard. they have to keep their hands kind of near the chest to be able to sprawl or get underhooks as quick as possible
top level? everyone in the ufc is top lvl, stop believing the masvidal hype
@@lowlowseesee bro nice observation
Masvidal will never forget this night
He probably won't actually remember it.
@@BendOregonwithDerrick 😂😂😂
he will most definately FORGET this fight lol
He's still high on that Ben askren win😂
He's too dumb probably will get knocked out again I his next fight
DC is almost as good an announcer and analyst as he was the Double Champ: intelligent break downs and he Clearly sees what each fighter is doing and whst moves they can make to gain a larger advantage and he Tells us about it during the fight! Kudos to UFC for hiring DC to announce!
Jorge got baptized, *literally.* lol
KO 💦
This night was special everything literally happened

From Street Jesus to corpse in the street. And nobody saying Usman broke Chael curse!
Kamaru humbled him. He has real power!
Agreed...He doesn't have the technique like real strikers like dustin or conor, But he hits harder. Because usman is physically stronger than conor or dustin.
@@frz7553 The crazy thing is Usman still has much room to improve on the feet. He'll take lessons from this fight and get even better with Trevor Whitman. I have no clue who will actually beat that version of Usman
@@starmorpheus Yes exactly. He looked sloppy as mentioned by DC. But i knew he hits very hard. That guy is physically stronger than anyone in the division.

I truly believe that your word will roam around in form of energy and come flying back like a boomerang if the words were bad. In Jorge's case it was the facetime with jake rubbing his KO to Ben's face.
DC is so good as a commentator! Great to see my man transition smoothly after retirement :D
Nice video keep it up make more related videos
The KO was directed by The Wachowskis. Masvidal was stripped of everything tonight, even his sweat☺
I agree, fake fight just like Jake Paul’s. Masvidal was giving Usman signals when he should punch him by smiling. It was like a WWE match where they call out their moves.

That reminded me of the Sergio Martinez vs Paul Williams knockout. So much leverage in the punch. Unexpected and spectacular.
Great example brother, one of my fav kos.
D.C is such a boss what a great guy💪
Snoozman putting people to sleep with his striking now. What an amazing punch from Usman. It was honesty flawless.
I fkn love those super necessary shots when he was down 😁
That punch and the sweat flying away was something out of a Snyder movie.
What an amazing event that was! Refreshing to have the crowd back. And refreshing to have rose back. This event was almost as good as when gsp came back to fight bisping
Masvidal: Usman hits soft! Also Masvidal: (taunting ) Come hit me bro, what you got? Usman: Crunch!! Masvidal: wakes up in Narnia!
Ben Askren is gonna welcome Jorge Masvidal to the shadow realm. 🤣🤣🤣
Great commentary by DC on this card
It's great to see that these tough fighters value their family life.
Dc is a natural on the way he explains how things are.
so true i dont get why some said he's biased even Khabib being so close to him he stated that Usman should take the lead.
Jorge Masvidal has finally contributed his own vicious KO to the UFC highlights collection!
The power in that punch was out of this world.
Great commentary.. Let's fight !
"All he gon do is foot stomp again" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kamaru "the Nigerian Nightmare" Usman just committed a homicide..... Does Colby really really really want any parts of this?
Yeah Colby a bad man, But he's still not on usman level gonna be a great fight tho can't wait..
This event was just what was needed.
That punch connected beautifully
usman really was fighting at 30% back in the days now he’s at 33%
Yeah I think usman is wrecking people on like 50 % of capacity, because he dont need more, 😁😁

Breaking News: Masvidal vs. Askren 2 in a boxing match is already in the works for Triller's fight card with Jake Paul in the main event
Daniel Cormier is an excellent analyst. Legendary career in the octagon and looks like outside of the octagon as well
I love that move... Move the guard and capitalize. It's such an underrated and unexpected move.
Masvidal lost the first fight with 6 weeks notice got knocked out the 2nd fight with 6 weeks notice maybe they should give him the 3fd fight in 6 months notice when he wakes up from the knock out
The first fight he had 6 days.... but he could have 6 years and he's still not beating usman
I haven’t seen someone get hit by a loaded punch that flushly in awhile, Masvidal got absolutely hammered by that haymaker.
that wasn't a 'haymaker' bro
DC so much respect for you!!
DC really fitting in well at his new job. Happy for him
Still want to see Jorge vs Colby
I think Masvidal will retire now
Jorge vs nick is actually confirmed in the press conference
Jorge gonna fight Diaz after Edwards smokes him
Neither can beat usman. Might as well have them fight have khazmat fight Marty
Colby will dominate him for 5 rounds
Kamaru "the Nigerian predator" Ngannou
Lmao.......apt
KZhead warrior
Your content is very good congratulations
Great champion...till the next champ comes along. Thanks for the entertainment athletes.
People can't forget. Usman would have way more title defenses if he got a title shot as early as GSP did. If Usman beats Colby 2x, Leon 2x, Wonderboy, and maybe Luque, there's no denying that he's the greatest Welterweight to ever live. No denying it.
I guess Colby rematch with a ko or tko in round 1 or 2 is enough for usman.leon and Wonderboy are not much for usman to get his hand raised.
Finishes as a contender will get people title shots faster.Usman would had gotten a title shot sooner if he finished more fight like he did last night.
the only way jorge stays relevant now, is he has to fight and beat the three people, we the people actually want him to fight. and that’s nate, colby and leon.
Fax.
not nate...colby...leon..and burns
@@DMarvelous88 big facts. No one wants to see that again.
Leon or Colby
He loses to them without a doubt , he is overrated.

Man you could see usman improving thru his career. Pretty amazing 👏
Kamaru is cleaning up the division! loud-boy Colby is getting stopped again.
I wish people would read this but don’t sleep on Colby. That dude is a monster because he’s extremely disciplined. Just like usman. Usman knows this.
@@stackpapereveryday5682 colby is good but usman looks so much improved in striking...I doubt colby can go more than 2 rounds with him
Im curious to see if Khamzat will be his first real challenge. but a little worried about his condition post Covid
@@stackpapereveryday5682 he's good, no denying that. But kamaru is better.

If Jorge was a man of honor he’d hand that bmf belt over to Marty.... ijs
That clown would never do that. The belt is his only hope to fight a big name for red panty night. He might try to rematch Nate Diaz.
This ufc was soooo brutal man💪🔥
He beat him up from beginning to end..what ah night it was 💯👌🏿💪🏿
This version of Kamaru can beat anyone. Literally anyone P4P. He's the best fighter in the world P4P and I still wonder why this is up for debate.
Where are all the Usman haters at now👀
Right here
Right here.
Lmmfao keep hating on the WW goat
what a wild night of fight,. love it
The main card results were super funky. 2 leg injuries. One complete domination and two surprising as knockouts.
