Love Julianna “Racquelle is talking about retirement and being a family MAN” 😂😂😂.
She's playing the strickland trash talk card lol
And she was hesitant to say it too... Gosh could they be kissing anymore on live TV 🤮🤮🤮 lesbian behavior 😂😂
Time stamp ?
@@juicyj3989 11:40
@@arizonacountrygirl are you a Tupac fan?
Legitimatly one of the worst strikers in mma ive ever seen. Shes tough but idk who trains her in boxing. They shud be fired.
Facts and I've been a fan of hers despite the last fight I don't switch up but God damn those hands are trash lol. Definitely got the work ethic to improve and she got decent power she be dangerous with a different camp
Who's worse her or Colby?
Agree completely. Off balance and arm punches with nothing behind it. Needs to move her striking up to be deadly.
@@megamanxhunterBen Askren
she outstruck Amanda and Amanda would knock the block off many grown men you included so idk...😅
She's the most likable unlikable character in WMMA. 😂 If there was no Julianna Pena they should have to invent one. But thank God for us that there is one. I hope that she beats Pennington and wins the title back. Love her or hate her, WMMA needs her. 👊 Best promotor/salesperson in WMMA by far. And when it comes down to it, I think she's a good person as well. She just knows how to sell a fight. God bless her. ♥
Really? She’s only had one good performance in her whole career, has only averaged 1 fight per year over a 15 year career and hasn’t fought in nearly 2 years now. She doesn’t bring anything but a big delusional mouth.
Jhar26- She is a good person but has to play the heel for her brand + the ratings.
I think she beats raquel because of her tenaciousness in there..raquel will break during the fight.
"Likably unlikable." I like it!
Yeah, She's the only Person that even In Defeat Could still give back a beating, Just like her Fight against Nunes even In their First Bout where she Finished Her. that's the kind of Fight People want to see not whatever that was last Weekend.
She's a great heel.
Let’s call it what it is, she’s beautiful
make up makes anyone look good!
You must be related to her. Lots of makeup. We watched before she could afford 50$ of makeup an appearance..... It's just makeup art work . #notherface
She looks like your dad. 🌄
🌄
lol...yeah in a wanderlei silva in a dress type beauty
She's basically playing female Colby except actually doing it better because she doesn't fumble her words like Colby, and unlike him has won a title.
Did she just admit to watching a dodgey stream lol... love this woman haha
Now that Nunez is gone I’ve fully warmed up to pena, defo got the talk on lock, that last title fight couldn’t have gone worse entertainment wise, at least she brings the voice.
Her trash talk seems so forced. I think it makes her look like a clown,
@@jaseallenson316yeah I agree with you. But it seems wwe-esque at least it’s not gross and nasty trash talk
@@nerdsandvirginsmma yeah for sure. And i get she just trying to get interest for herself and the division in general. We all know it needs something.
@@jaseallenson316 yeah it is a bit tbh, it was worse when Nunez was about cos she got 50-44 and a soda but can appreciate her trying to sell/ be interestin. She’s not wrong about Pennington, at least she’s trying to draw people to the division.
You guys have to understand, they gonna fight for real …it’s not like for entertainment purposes
I love the heel character.😂
Juliana love her or hate her would have made that co-main event a lot more interesting 💤
Really? She’s only had one good performance in her whole career, has only averaged 1 fight per year over a 15 year career and hasn’t fought in nearly 2 years now. She doesn’t bring anything but a big delusional mouth.
@@JarrydOhstrange guy.
Yeah, for me, wanting a fighter to lose their life in the octagon definitely makes it interesting 😂
@@JarrydOh You can't deny that the rematch with nunes was interesting though, nobody said she did well but at least she actually tried and laid it all on the line even when she could not have more clearly been outclassed. Look at the horrible co-main event, Julianna would've made it interesting regardless of which end she was at at the end of the fight
@@ashervirin9698all I’m saying is why even think about her being there. It’s been nearly 2 years since she last fought. She’s not active enough to consider.
13:28 Ariel enjoying the girl gossip
The worst thing to happen for pena was to beat Nunes, now she thinks she’s the best in the world. She got smoked in there second fight!
I really wanna like Pena because we live in the same suburb. But when she said she was dominating Valentina until the submission, I shook my head.
her turtle analogy of raquel , was hilarious and pretty accurate .....julianna is one of the better sh...talkers in the ufc at the moment
She was not lying, I was actually thinking Where's Miss Pena because this Co-Main-Event is, was & still is 😴😴😴😴😴😴
Really? You were thinking where’s the most inactive fighter who’s only had one good performance in her career? That’s sad.
@JarrydOh Still more active than that horrendous co main event so #FOH
@@JarrydOh Exactly. People act like Penas a worldbeater because she had one good performance against Amanda and simultaneously ducked the trilogy with her for 289 pulling out. I'm not a fan of WMMA In general, but Christ these comments acting like she's breathing "new life" to the Womens BW division with her cringe trash talk Is baffling to me.💀
@@darkclaw1462 Give credit where it's due Pena is an X champ she's too tough to be a duck the pull out was due to fractured ribs.
@@JarrydOhgod damn how many comments are you gonna reply to saying the same thing?😂
Anyone peep how they cut her out of that promo showing all the wms bantamweight champions before the fight like she ain’t whoop Amanda smh
Maybe because she got “whooped” in the 2nd fight 😂😂😂 of course they cut this fluke out
These comments saying that Pena is so great and likable cracks me up. 6 months ago y'all were calling her delusional. Boy, MMA fans... I tell ya.
Fickle.
If only her talking backed up her fight skills
Julianna is hilarious and the best thing about this lame division, which is at its absolute worst. Shame that is has ZERO talent and no bright future as of now...
She is funny and interesting but she's never really done anything other than ONE win over Amanda. She talks a lot louder than her success rate. She got destroyed in her rematch with Amanda. I'm not saying she's not tough or good for the division I'm simply saying she brags a lot more she deserves to.
@@Hauntworld Well, she is basically Colby of this division. And it certainly helps that this division has declined and become the worst division in entire MMA, so Julianna might end up looking like GSP now, which is another tragedy.
She has grappling talent but her striking is Ronda levels of fruity.
I wanna Valentina up at 135 and be a 2 division champ I mean she beat Pena before easly
It wasn't easy. Valentina needed to pull off a submission from her back which is something she hasn't done since.
@@zeaferjones1404 lol bruh Pena was just grappling and clinching had 1 take down out of 6 while val had 2 out of 3 Val pulled it off but either way if she threw hands cuz Pena didn't she would beat her to
F Trudeau chants were the best part of that fight
Not long ago you McRousey casuals didn't want politics in sports turned out you just wanted YOUR politics in sports 😂💀
@@EJ-bq1nu Well we know who you voted for.....refer to Sean Strickland's rant, it's aimed directly at you.
@@jonoharper4729 I've never voted in my life 😅 Sean Stricklands rant was aimed at his trauma just like all the MAGA incels
She is funny af 😂😂😂 I love her
This woman has to be the most annoying thing in the full UFC roaster! Just shows you looks ain't everything 😂
Straight baddie
Colby Covington's Wife😂😭
Atleast she had the actual title at one point non like Colby 🤷🏾♂️
@@mylesteller 🤣😭
0:43 - Pretty much what Juliana did in her 2nd fight against Nunes.
Julianna got murder by Amanda Nunes in second fight
@@tinaruzol7256 who finished whom?
@@QuestionMarkKick360 Who cares, they both suck.
Second fight Julianna got 5 knocked down by Amanda Nunes
@@tinaruzol72563 times lol
Great to hear her beautiful voice.
???
Shes just awesome. The shining light of a dull division
Really? She’s only had one good performance in her whole career, has only averaged 1 fight per year over a 15 year career and hasn’t fought in nearly 2 years now. She doesn’t bring anything but a big delusional mouth.
i agree she will be be the face of the division just through her mic skills. which isnt a bad thing. she knows what shes doing and is the only woman thats taking advantage of Nunes retiring.
“Family man.” 😂
I was looking for this lol
I'm not trying to start no mess, however, Valentina Shevchenko already beat Juliana at 135... can we stop saying that there's no one out there? There are fighters who can go up to 135....... I'm just saying .... And a Shevchenko versus Peña rematch would be amazing. I'd buy that fight.
I thought her how to walk in heals 🤣🤣🤣 Mommying these girls
She is brilliant. I am thoroughly entertained, give her a live mic more often!
Why she getting a title shot? She has no ranked wins. Irene she just get it
Cuz she is funny and no one cares about that division.
Pine - No.# 1. contender + X champ
I cant wait to see julianna penas next fight, said no one ever
I might not think she is that good of a fighter but damn she is entertaining haha She is somewhat like a female version of Chael Sonnen
when it comes to skills .......amanda is way better in my opinion, but when it comes to heart and determination, i can't recall seeing a tougher fighter than pena, there was zero quit in her during the second nunes fight, i was extremely impressed by that!
You just compared her to chael sonnen? Hahahaha definitely a casual
You know what wasnt a snoozefest? Watching her get dropped 6 times in her rematch with amanda nunes 😂😂 shes so unlikable. Its ridiculous. She won a fluke championship and became the female sean strickland only difference is strickland can fight.
great heel, she is what ian and colby want to be, hope francis gets to slip in
Ian doesn’t even want to be a heel he’s just unbearable
Slip in what? 🤨
the venezuealan vah gie na@@american1207
Peña is the female Colby Covington smh
What a piece of work.
Nunes will just beat Peña again then retire again 😂
Over here pretending like any of her fights are anything to write home about. Nobody remembers any of her fights bc they're also snoozers or she lost, except the Nunes fights, but that has more to do with Nunes. The 1st one people remember & got entertained bc of the shock of Nunes imploding & losing. The 2nd one bc of the 5 round beatdown Nunes that handed down to make evetything right again. Otherwise nobody can say they cared or recall any of Juliana's other fights with excitement or simply remembering them
Didn’t realise that Colby transitioned! Who knew 🤷♂️
The Venezuelan Vixen, the Pocahontas Princess, the Mexican Momba! As beautiful as ever!
We need her back.
Nobody cares what pena thinks
She aint wrong about the fight.....but she's also still annoying af. lol
Yeah, her and Colby are probably the most annoying heels In the UFC right now. All yappin, no fighting.
@@darkclaw1462 When has C.C. ever had the belt? he's a politician Pena isn't
She finished Nunes and she's only talking about fight stuff.
Second fight Julianna got murder by Amanda Nunes
Please get rid of this stupid division
Pena sounding like Covington
The only one that makes me bleed my own blood is myself and…Amanda nunes
My Queen making WMMA great again.
Juliana u ain’t as good looking as u think. Omg 😳
Like or dislike her, she’s the most entertaining thing about that division. “My stream was cutting in and out”😂 I’d love to see her fight Kayla eventually
I can't wait for can one to come in and beat can two then Amanda comes back and wipes the floor with this one again.
UFC fighters watching illegal streams of the PPV! wow
She's got my attention
I saw people in other chats comparing her to Chael Sonnen and I pray that he, the GOAT, never sees those comments. I can't think of a more offending thing to say to someone other than Julianna Pena reminds me of you.
Colby chaos covington style
Bruhhhhh I didn’t even make it past the Curtis fight.
Ten fights since 2013, it looks like Mz Pena has been snoozing.
She is the most unrelevant person I've known in my life. She is just not as good as she portrays herself to be and I give everybody credit but she is just ridiculous. There's no respect. There's no nothing. That's why she loses her fights because she has no respect for her opponents at all. Ever even. Amanda Nunes she could not say one good thing about she's got some problems and I know she's playing a character like Covington
When Amanda was still fighting in UFC. Julianna pulled out 3rd Trilogy fight with Amanda.. Then when Amanda retired. Julianna suddenly wanted to puch the 3rd Trilogy fight. She was fooling her self
the worst thing to happen to WMMA, cant stand her, amazing that she won the title once and look how she faired in the rematch 50-43... calling Rocky a family man is just a piss take!! also saying she will never be able to defend the belt as she will beat her is a bit pot kettle black as she didnt manage to defend it
Stop acting like Nunes didn’t get her faces bashed in in the rematch. The girl left the cage on crutches ffs. Peña slaughtered her in fight 1 & 2. You think rocky has a chance against Peña? Stop it. 😂
@@RainReignsX You are Steven fake account I remember
@@RainReignsX Stop being delusional. 50-43 not close fight
@@RainReignsX Julianna lost every round against Amanda funny not winning a round Julianna is embarrassing
She sounds like the female Colby Covington. So damn irritating
I wish pena knows how to strike properly because she is great on trash talk..im so confused all these years in the ufc and girl didn't know how to punched still...amazing
I'm sorry, but saying Amanda Nunes is not a fighter is like saying Mike Tyson was a nobody. Plain and simple.
She is my fav female fighter I rooted for her against Nunez both times.
I've never hated on Pena and never will. That co main was super disappointing and if Pena was fighting for that belt it would've been much more of a show. That's not opinion thats fact.
Did Pena gaslight herself about losing one of the most one sided title fights in UFC history? 😂 shes a journeyman who on her best night barely scraped by Amanda on her worst. The rematch showed where the levels are. Beat a contender and earn another title shot.
Pena is the male version of Colby Covington
Her mic skills are way better
the whole freakin' card was a snoozefest. DDP was the only fighter that brought any action into the cage that night.
This dude is a bit angry.
Women in mma want to remember if the UFC did a stand alone women’s card it wouldn’t sell any PPVs ,if it would Dana would have done one
Juliana Peña is best female mma / personality in the business. She’s make interesting for sure
She's the Ric Flair of UFC!
Bruh i dont care, Julianna is the most interesting thing about the 135 division 😂
Pena is growing on me.... her booing Amanda's retirement was so petty that it was hilarious. 😂
She's the female Colby
Julianna next or we riot😅
At least Pena is able to talk a bit and she is pretty hot so that counts for something in my book.
On the ball in calling out Nunes running into retirement. Let's Go, Julianna!
Julianna Running with Amanda. Julianna pulled out 3rd Trilogy fight with Amanda. Amanda vs Julianna 289. In Amanda vs Aldana 289
She not a bad fighter and not a bad looking woman, a bit above average Pete knows
Loved Juliana since TUF. She is the true champ in waiting.
One of the best trash talking promoters. The only one who makes me laugh out loud.
Juliana Peña & her fans are an example of thinking that if you yell enough you’re winning the argument😂.
I rly like Pena, shes got awesome personality but anyone who thinks Nunez wouldn't smoke her is Delusional 💀
fav female fighter idc
Really? She’s only had one good performance in her whole career, has only averaged 1 fight per year over a 15 year career and hasn’t fought in nearly 2 years now. She doesn’t bring anything but a big delusional mouth.
@@JarrydOh I don’t care about her record. it’s her style and personality.
@@katanabootsreally you don’t care that a fighter doesn’t fight? I would have thought that was the most important factor in deciding a favorite fighter.
@@JarrydOh Parrot
@@katanabootsyeah she’s the only female fighter that makes u want to see her fight’s just from her mic skills.
Straight up JP...lack of thrilling action.
Raquel pennington vs Mayra Silva fight. better than Rose Namajunas vs Carla Sparza fight
She ain't lying. I dozed off a few times.
I'd rather watch that fight on repeat then hearing Pena speak for even a minute
Looks like she's imitating Colby Covington and it's absolutely cringe to see lmao
Crazy Sexy Smart.🔥
People who hate Julianna are stupid. She is literally the most entertaining woman fighter.
I love this girl.
Raquel gave up on the stool, after amanda gave her a title fight when she did not deserve it. I am sure for this past fight amanda talked to dana to give Raquel the title shot, when there are better candidates
Why do we have to watch these girl fight? They're boring
She makes it. Hard not to get anoyed by her
She is absolutely shutting herself since Kayla signed
Did Ariel say he's a white belt ?? She needs to date Colby. These two are identical in their level of delusionment 👏
She is right, it was pish! A non championship title fight. About as entertaining as an MMA hour stream.
😂
Lmao !
pena vs amanda 3 is not the biggest fight in womens history lmao
Julianna calling anyone a snooze fest is hilarious
bro she spun amandas head back had her nose leaking
