Did he though? From what I watched in literally half of fights of his winstreak Tony got hurt. And hurt bad. And a lot of times. This is type of style you can't really get out with for extended periods of time. Yeah, winstreak is cool, but eating punches and head kicks in literally every fight for 5-6 fights in a row isn't cool and will eventually come to some result.
@@МихаилЧалый-щ3жevery single significant strike Justin landed was on Tony’s face. All 100 of them. It took 100 significant strikes from Justin to stop Tony. Most people fall after 4-5.
Ya that head shake and slap at the air he did right before the fight was stopped was some shit I've never seen, (from him taking so much damage) and never want to see again.
Johnson, the human coin flip 😂😂. He actually broke Tony's arm in the first round, throwing a high kick, that was blocked. Tony had a tough time after that.
Ya know what’s crazy is I bet even if he didn’t get concussed and could remember the feeling of that kick, I doubt he felt any pain. I really think Tony is genuinely numb to the idea of pain, but it’s not pain and that shuts your brain off. Unfortunately, when it comes to blunt force trauma, the pain you feel from said blunt force is the least threatening thing about it
@@KrikZ32 honestly I’d argue the knee bar was a lot worse. The armbar looked pretty bad but the knee bar was actually so bad that Tony started illegally kicking Charles to try and get out of it, and left the most painful look on Tony’s face we’ve probably ever seen. Good point about that
Looking back at his career Tony really was never defensively sound. He got rocked multiple times but was young and wild enough to bounce around and make the recovery. Not to mention none of the opponents had the wherewithal to not chase the finish when they hurt Tony; look at Vannata. Gaethje changed that. Edit: Weirdos in the comments
yes very much so tony was on his way out even before the gaethje fight, his reckless style very much worked because he was outstandingly athletic and had tremendous grit, if you want to keep fighting past 34 and have a shot at getting belts you're gonna have to have been fighting more intelligently, and you need to have great technical skill, you can't do it with just grit, look at what pereira is doing at 36 now tony should've developed his standup more, it was not on the level it should have been, with that reach of his he should not have been letting himself get hit nearly as much as he did
The real issue is he lost his attributes. He didn’t change his style but he lost his speed and reflexes. He still retains his offbeat timing and creative striking but his style doesn’t work without speed and great reflexes.
I agree. When you watch it back, Tony damn near gets rocked at some point in all of his victories. Hell, i didn’t even recognize half the guys he “ran through “.
Same Great video, just hurts to see Tony take so much damage in those losing fights. The Chandler up kick is one thing but the sound of the hits in the Justin fight have me wincing every single time
The craziest part about the Gaethje v Tony how it ended…no knockout no submission everyone just kind of recognized Tony was done. With context watching it back it’s so tough/sad knowing Tony spent his last right there.
@@ElChicoMedas and one of the things I found crazier in that fight was that somehow, even after all the bombs Tony took, the only knockdown scored was the one Tony landed on Justin in the 2nd.
Truth is Tony was well done before that fight. Even in his wins he was nearly being KO'ed at times, it just accumulated. He didn't look good against Cerrone either.
@@20_foot_burmese_pyth0n Gaethje punches so weird, its like his punches have a lot of thud in them but dont usually have the kind of snap that puts people out cold or gets knockdowns. It's like his fists are perfectly bio-engineered to maximize brain damage.
Tony taking a heavy shot, shaking his head, and then shaking his head again like "oh shit, I think I might be in trouble". I feel like his body or some part of him was trying to signal to the ref that he needed to stop.
Wdym, he beat Gaethje to become the interim champion again, and then went on to submit Khabib and become the undisputed champ and retired ontop as the BOAT.
That was actually a very close fight. Nowhere near as one sided as people make it out to be. Watching it live, I had it 2-2 going into the final round, where Ferguson really poured it on.
@@dubbeking And only win against a top calibre fighter who was in his prime. Look at his other wins, they are against average fighters and fighters past their prime! Overrated fighter with a highly overrated win streak!
@@matrix35 I would also argue RDA wasn't in his best form at the time, as he had well-documented, and really bad, issues with his weight cuts towards the end of his championship run. Prime RDA wasn't around all that long.
Crazy rewatching the gaethje fight how much damage tony could’ve avoided by just keeping his right hand up. Everyone knows about the gaethje hook combo
The chandler knockout was the worst, I was screaming at the tv when Tony dropped him in the 1st was so happy and kept saying Tony’s back! And the he got knocked out by that kick and I sat in silence for the rest of chandler’s post fight interview
you say that just because he was winning. The real prime Tony was also losing most of his fights until he won. He was getting absolutely battered by lando, barboza, etc. And he got rag dolled by Kevin lee and Danny Castillo. Prime Tony was very overrated imo, by that I mean he would never ever have beaten khabib as people say
@@carloandreaguilar5916 I say that because Tony looked damn good in the Chandler fight. He looked quicker than in his last couple of fights. But although I am a huge El Cucuy fan; I agree with you that prime Tony would lose to Khabib. Khabib destroyed everyone except for Gleison Tibau (think he even lost that fight); but Gleison was crazy juiced; and there’s no room for cheaters in MMA, or any sports for that matter.
@@carloandreaguilar5916dude won 12 straight that’s far from overrated. It’s just all that damage caught up to him. We do not tolerate Tony slander around here
Looking back on it, Tony probably took more damage during the 12 fight win streak then he did during the 7 fight losing streak. And considering those Geathje and Chandler highlights that is really saying something.
What a lot of people leave out about Tony is that during his 12 fight win streak he went to wars multiple times and absorbed a lot of damage. The Gaethje fight was just the breaking point all the damage from prior years accumulating to a breaking point. The 12 fight win streak wasn't complete one sided domination
It’s true . He got beat up in all of his W . He lost against mediocre wrestler Dany Castillo & he knew it . There was nothing special about his 12 streak tbh . He won them by his will to survive the beating that’s all . Now his body can’t take it anymore his will to survive is useless & it shows .
Honestly Toney had so many close calls in his 12 fight win streak. It just all caught up at once. After seeing that fight with Kevin Lee I can't imagine a fight with Khabib would have ended well.
9:00 the importance of keeping your hands up and your chin down..90% of those counters could have been blocked if he just maintained basic boxing defense. Tony's wild style was his best weapon and his biggest weakness.
It's what happens when ypur technique isn't solid but you compensate with athleticism, unpredictability and just tanking everything. It catches up to you.
No he was always overrated. He got exposed to real top 5 and then the record speaks for itself. He was mostly beating former great fighters who were then gatekeepers. Also a piece of shit person in real life. Facts
It's truly a case of father time catching up with someone. In his prime he was still doing the same goofy stuff like Dark Souls rolling when he gets hit, iminari rolling onto legs, wild striking, but he had the youth and athleticism to pull it off, now that he's 35+ it just isn't the same, he moves like he's in quicksand. We need a TRT league where legends can sauce up and still fight like their prime longer.
What a stupid comment. Let's jeopardize people's health and well being by allowing them to fight past their prime and raided and juiced up.. So, not only will it allow them to look worse and worse, they can be so roided up, they melt the testing cup.
Jesus Christ, how time flies. I still remember binge-watching Tony Ferguson's highlights during the lockdowns of 2020 and being introduced to him. Him losing to Gaethje was a total heartbreak. We all thought he would come back to his form, but time proved us wrong.
Tony is a warrrior, never doubt that! I wanna see *YOU* talking shit & getting a round with the EL Cucuy...well, i woudn't! Props for @ITPmma for bringing awesome videos every time! Much love 🧄✨💯
@@CuznLuvn6912 people who aren’t brain dead that think Tony was an elite fighter,watched him from TUF and his entire UFC career and I’ve been saying he’s pretty average,all that great offense and yet has always had bad defense like terrible defense,once his chin went so did his fighting ability
Tony’s “El Cucuy” style in its prime is a GOAT and underrated approach to MMA and human combat in general. Calling it genius or nearly meta-human isn’t even a far stretch.
I had such a huge smile on my face when this video started but once I saw the first loss I really got sad cause Tony is one of my favorite all time fighters
I still think till this day that he would be the most likely to be the one to beat him and also if him and Conor had a rematch I believe Conor would’ve made the adjustments that were needed . The first fight was competitive in a way but idk I’m just not on this Khabib type of fighter . Take down and try to hold position and maybe get a submission but mostly ( Almeida ) just sit there literally holding your legs doing absolutely no damage 💯
@@Mackenzie002I mean… probably a normal fight just like any other he had? Khabib would’ve just done his normal gameplan of enduring the stand up with solid defense then go for the takedown and repeat until choke or decision.
That hardest thing for me to watch was him when he fought Justin. It was like ref stop the fight all ready. I guess what I’m saying is it’s hard to watch the sport retire a fighter. Very few fighters actually retire from the sport before the sport retires them..
That fight with Gaethje is the most uncomfortable I've ever been while watching sports, after the 4th round it becomes borderline gross to see and hear the shots Tony was eating one after the other. Too tough for his own good.
It went from competitive and a good back n forth (despite the commentary not calling 70% of Tony’s shots because they were glazing his chin) and then turned into a 1 sided massacre. Any other fighter would have been KO’d by round 3. I’m also amazed Tony didn’t try and grapple more
I was in the casino business for 16 years. And Tony is that gambler who beats the casino, & then proceeds to give it back + all their cash, an atm trip, & offering to sell their jewelry to the pit boss.
what a great video thats only 9 minutes long! wow! im sure glad i only watched this for 9 minutes. nothing happens after the 9:00 minute mark. trust me.
Man, i think someone robbed the knifes that tony used to guard on his gloves. Man, every fight used to be a bloodbath to his opponents. Was scare af watching him won at his prime
@@SuperDarkSoul22Alex Pereira is the same age now as Tony was when he lost to Justin. Tony didn't just magically lose all his abilities in the months between his fight with Cerrone and Justin. He simply faced elite competition for the first time in his life, where his atrocious defense was finally exploited.

The Gaethje fight being at an empty apex made the sounds borderline sickening by the end of the fight.
Actually the fight was inside the empty arena in Jacksonville. So there’s more of a sound/echo.
For real, it sounded like somebody spanking a pot roast
Ya that head shake and slap at the air he did right before the fight was stopped was some shit I've never seen, (from him taking so much damage) and never want to see again.
@@mattrose11234it legitimately reminded me of a wounded animal. I totally agree, it was just wrong.. stopped ages too late

Tony’s 12-fight winning streak began following his loss in 2012, to none other than Michael Johnson
Michael Johnson when he's on his game is a beast lighting speed just not consistent that being said i enjoyed gaethje beating him up
Dustin also loss to Johnson
Johnson, the human coin flip 😂😂. He actually broke Tony's arm in the first round, throwing a high kick, that was blocked. Tony had a tough time after that.
@kdingo2909 easily one of the best fighters who's barely over .500..
You are correct and as it turned out Michael Johnson was another fighter whose career went way south after fighting Gaethje.
Hold on, I'm crying brother 😭
Fuuuccckkk😢😢😢😢

Hypothetically, Do you think Cris Cyborg at her current age could have success playing American high school football? Why or why not?
Hypothetically Cyborg can beat Cejudo who beat TJ who beat Cody who beat Cruz

That hardest thing for me to watch was him when he fought Justin. It was like ref stop the fight all ready. I guess what I’m saying is it’s hard to watch the sport retire a fighter. Very few fighters actually retire from the sport before the sport retires them..
That fight with Gaethje is the most uncomfortable I've ever been while watching sports, after the 4th round it becomes borderline gross to see and hear the shots Tony was eating one after the other. Too tough for his own good.
I said the same thing most brutal fight I’ve ever watched live. It was a somber feeling watching it think everyone was disgusted and sad watching it
It went from competitive and a good back n forth (despite the commentary not calling 70% of Tony’s shots because they were glazing his chin) and then turned into a 1 sided massacre. Any other fighter would have been KO’d by round 3. I’m also amazed Tony didn’t try and grapple more
The head shake right before the Gaethje finish just makes me want to cry
This was a good 9 minute video. Thank you
The Gaethje fight... how did he not go down??? Not human...
I was in the casino business for 16 years. And Tony is that gambler who beats the casino, & then proceeds to give it back + all their cash, an atm trip, & offering to sell their jewelry to the pit boss.
It’s not 7 losses it’s 7 learning experiences
It will always be,
Tony Time 🕶️🇲🇽🙏🏼
He is a losing bum
what a great video thats only 9 minutes long! wow! im sure glad i only watched this for 9 minutes. nothing happens after the 9:00 minute mark. trust me.
Title says video is 3 minutes but it's actually 14 minutes lol
Thong is the only fighter ive seen who every fight i watch of his it gives me goosebumps bro. His style is so damn clean and BEAUTIFUL
In Spain without the S in this one 💔
For better or worse. Tony is still CSO. All love.
Man, i think someone robbed the knifes that tony used to guard on his gloves. Man, every fight used to be a bloodbath to his opponents. Was scare af watching him won at his prime
You guys cheer when their up and kick when their down. He’s a legend and will always be. Simple as that
Tony Ferguson vs 2nd Tier = 12 - 0
Tony Ferguson vs Top Tier = 0 - 7
A cautionary tale of "no head movement".
No training camps and lost athletisicm when he started boxing and lost foot work whenstartred boxing
@@SuperDarkSoul22 While that also count, the most obvious part is Gaethje fight, u can't be the same with that much injury... He's done
@@SuperDarkSoul22Alex Pereira is the same age now as Tony was when he lost to Justin.
Tony didn't just magically lose all his abilities in the months between his fight with Cerrone and Justin. He simply faced elite competition for the first time in his life, where his atrocious defense was finally exploited.
Top tier? Who? Bobby green and Paddy? Only top tier there was Justin and maybe Olivera. And he is lucky he did not face the likes of Khabib.
@@ABWriting Michael Chandler and Nate Diaz are not top tier? News to me. And Paddy is an overhyped, untested punk...but he is still 21-3.
1:06 Kikuno started running like "man, f*ck this"
Hold on brother I’m crying
3:00 that takedown roll is why khabib feared tony
Hold on, i'm crying brother!
