I get not liking Izzy as a person, but as a fighter I think people are over reacting. His accolades are top 5 and he’s still only 24-3 lol three loses with all the huge names he’s fought. In my opinion, he’s still got gas left in the tank. Don’t write him off.

Chael quoting George Costanza is the best thing ever.

“Jerry, remember; it’s not a lie if you believe it” - My favourite line and scene from the show 😂🎉

5 on 1 in a Las Vegas hotel hallway they still had to dial 9 11 .

Hey uncle Chael. Don't forget DDP fought Brunson. Cheers from Joburg RSA

Izzy is the underdog now.

This is the 27th time you tell us the DDP / Bo nical undercard / main card story

DDP would not be able to catch izzy just like costa and Romero 😂

Izzy via KO first round. He'll exposed that south african keffer

Starting off with a George Costanza reference.. Chael. Your off to a good start so far, but we'll see where this goes

Dricus beat the shit out of Whittaker

I wanna know how DDP “backed out” of that first interview with Adesanya?

Fight miles are a real thing, and kickboxers tend to log a lot of fight miles. There isn't a magic number where you're suddenly just not good anymore, there's a lot of other factors, but eventually, all those punches and kicks to the head catch up.

Izzy is good but he gets taken down ddp just looks heavy asf and he for sure goes in the octagon at 200-220 pounds

It’s so crazy how few years these dudes have of their prime. I know there are outlying cases but in general it seems like 4-5 years. 31/32 to 36. After that- all depends on how good the competition is. 4-5 years of prime? That’s nuts. Islam is 32. He’s got 3 years until he’ll be called “old man” by the younger fighters and fans. THREE YEARS! Some of y’all may not have the perspective yet to really feel how short of a time frame that is but MY GOD. A drop in the bucket. Almost makes it discouraging to watch MMA. But I still love it. Now really think about how long Jon Jones has been fighting at championship level. Absolutely insane. If not for his personal life controversies he could have gone down as the Michael Jordan of MMA.

DDP had a broken foot and couldn't fight Adesanya the first time.....just here to keep Chael honest.

Im betting on the guy who beat periria

I don't know if there are many things that I heard about more often in my life than Uncle Chael talking about that DDP on the undercard/Bo Nickal on the main card-situation. 😄

Ddp smoking izzy with real mma😂🔥🇿🇦

Shout out to the puppy 🐶

never looked at confidence that way… uncle chael strikes again

Izzy was a dominant champion. He was was very busy, didn’t duck anybody. Several times, I was rooting for his opponent, because he was fighting one of my favorite fighters. He’s entertained me for years. He has over 100 professional fights . He was a great champion.

Viljoenskroon bar style, julle wil nie leer nie.....Dricus gaan hom frommel.. 😂😂🇿🇦💯

Dricus Du Plessis 🇿🇦

Will his dog ever be the same?

i actually happened to watch that till fight today against ddp. it was not close. till never looked good…

One thing is for sure Dana will probably not line up Izzy and sean again. Sean's defensive style doesn't leave any openings for Izzy to counter punch. If that fight happens it's co-main at best and only sets up Khamzat to take the belt from Strickland

Strickland broke that man's will to keep fighting.

I think Izzy loses to DDP and I’m not even a DDP fan.

I think fighters have figured out to put pressure on adesanya. Problem is hes one of the best counter punchers to ever do it. Having said that, i think driscus is a worse matchup for adesanya than strickland was

Chael telling & retelling & retelling the DDP story and how Bo Nickal was ahead of him on the card in late 2022

I was there when Izzy and DDP had that back and forth in the octagon it was pretty awkward lol

Chimaev just called for a title shot after pulling out of the fight with Whittaker. What a moron 😂

Dricus made whittaker look like an amateur, and whittaker is one of the best, with all due respect.

He was never humble and hie already had his time.

Speaking of Bo - where he at now?

I'm leaning towards DDP. He's mentally & physically tougher than Izzy. Plus with Izzy being off this long, it all adds up to his doom.

How many Ufc champs would actually fight CHAEL in a Motel Hallway?

undefeated & undisputed

Sean changed Izzy forever.

No one is ever the same or should try to be the same it's called evolution that's what you should be talking about.

i honestly don't care about this fight Izzy should have taken another fight before this considering that he lost to Sean who then according to Dana himself arguably beat Dricus so why are we making Sean fight other people first i think Dana is just trying to squeeze relevance out of Izzy but i'm just not interested in the fight and it is kind of disrespectful to Sean who i felt deserved an immediate rematch considering Izzy is one and two in his last 3 fights lost to Alex beat Alex and then immediately loses to Sean but its Dana privilege when you have that popularity i guess

He;s been doing choreographed dance, he's actually pretty darn good. Entertaining! Lol, I wanna see more of that! HAHAHA he couuld become an ig influencer lol

If this comment gets 4 likes, I'll do zero push-ups!

I'm not sure Izzy still has it. This was not a good come back right for him.

Chael still salty that DDP has gotten ahead faster than Bo

Tito tapped!!

Cuzz how many times do you want to tell this story?

I think the fight with sean was just a bad day at the office. he really was a busy champ and i think he got bored at some point compareable to jones vs reyes. maybe he's motivated now but i have to admit that father time gets everyone that means i'm hyped

DDP is the more confident now cos he beat a guy who beat Izzy

Izzy will meet the dog in DDP & i'm not sure if he'll feel that's good or bad.

STIPE KNOCKS OUT jbj✝️🇺🇸

Izzy got cooked that was it . Strickland took him to school

We want see Pereira vs Izzy again!

Dp Vs Strickland fight wasn’t that convincing

Go Dricus!

DDP got on the map vs Till May not be not great of a win in hindsight, he was already done, bur im guessing most fans had never even heard his name till they saw him fight Till And from there has been on a hell of a run

STIPE THE GOAT✝️🇺🇸

Wow, even pronouncing DDP name correct 👍

Izzy doesn't have that dog in him anymore.

chael talks about the bo nickal under card thing in every single video that’s about dricus. we get it now ffs🤦🏽‍♂️

DDP will have the edge over Adesanya i believe, if Dricus closes the space and makes it a dogfight i don't see Adesanya winning , If Dricus allows Adesanya to kick him and rip at his body its going to be tough beating him.. Taking Adesanya's counter punches away he doesn't have much for Dricus!!

All the hate is just added flavour. There's no fighter in the UFC with a better story. Izzy is now starting the third part of his story. The hate is important because it's more consistent than being a fan. The hate keeps the notoriety bubbling. What really hurts a fighter is when the fans ignore them.

DDP the new South American Champ😂

Love from South Africa 🇿🇦 , I wish you could be a UFC commentator someday

Izzy and Conor need to go on the road together

U no theres 1 person in ufc to stop pereria .izzy and it was knockout of the year . Give izzy the cred hes due .izzy will slice and dice ddp .

In my opinion Izzy didn’t deserve a title shot off of his last fight but from him being dominant when he was champ I guess it’s fine. But if he loses this next fight he needs to climb back.

Not Chael calling Dricus South American 😆

Yes if he could stop painting his nails, doing stupid stuff and then posting it online, and then change his boring fighting style and fight like that hungry Adesanya we know before not the 'leg kick go back, circle and leg kick one'.

Tough one boet. I want our boy to win, but I don’t want to disrespect the skill set that Israel packs

I really like DDP but I‘m ok with Izzy winning because the Izzy haters are starting to be really annoying.

Izzy Beats DDP 3-1. DDP is confident, I get it, but stylistically, DDP's style is one which makes Izzy look good

I got izzy in this one. I just hope it's a good one.

You guys must not understand Israel Adesanya. He does his best work with guys who rush in on him. Israel is a counter fighter. With the year off if he comes back and is really trying to prove a point, he will KO DDP in the 2nd round.

Dogbender will be annihilated.

I don’t remember Darren Till looking good in that fight. I remember people saying that but I even rewatched it. Guy looked trash. At time DDP was a nobody & Till was a name. So everybody told a story that Darren looked good. It was a lie. Guy got manhandled.

IM THE REASON WALDO IS HIDING!

Alex is the guy Izzy wanted to be

Izzy -300 DK favorite

He's 1-2 in his last three fights. Hate to be pessimistic, but it's likely that his best days are behind him. Same story of virtually every fighter's career.

DDP is gonna starch Izzy, he’s cooked 👨‍🍳

Izzy got destroyed. DDP actually landed some really good punches on Strickland Took Strickland down slammed him a few times good ground and pound. Etc

He always had confidence, Izzy made DDP withdraw because of the racial slurring. South Africa's racial story you should all know. If Dricus had gone with that fight, they would have called him a racist.

Let's all be honest with ourselves, DDP did not beat Sean Strickland. It's just a fact. Nobody cares about Izzy versus DDP! Anybody who knows anything about the UFC knows that they are partnered with woke ESPN, and they are sponsored by woke Bud light. That's the reason why even if remotely close the fight was never going to go to Sean Strickland. That's the reason why sean Strickland didn't get a rematch. That's the reason why Izzy's coming back for heads and not belts but doesn't want to get that lost back. ESPN is woke bud light is woke. Modelo is woke... And UFC is becoming low key woke

Apparently ddp is south american

I see it 2 to 1 for ddp being the favorite. I think ddp stops him via ko on the feet or tko on the ground through strikes or neck choke

Izzy is the only fighter I've ever seen considered to be a P4P that actually turns his back to his opponent and runs away in the octagon.

DDP by rear naked choke

Respect uncle Jill I’m glad you spoke on the black-and-white. I know it must be difficult coming from racist ass Oregon but thank you.

He will be either better or never the same. How can you spend 9 min talking about it😂

DDP will dominate Adesanye and keep him on the back foot.

Sean strickland broke izzys mind and personality. Izzys ante comfortable anymore. Izzy needs to beat dricus for redemption. If izzy wins im im his fan again.

I'm not doing push-ups

South American???? South Africa!!!! is it so hard ?

Ddp wins this one definitely

Absolutely not

Dricus the South American champion 😂😂😂

answer: he already isn’t

DDP is going to smash him
