Its always insane to me to see old DJ fights, but also how the UFC "didnt know how to promote him." Its nuts, hes so likeable, one of the most talented if not the most, gets the gaming crowd even... I guess you had to be an asshole for the UFC to wrap their head around you lol
Man time really does fly by 😢 I remember this era of UFC like it was yesterday. Silva’s run as champ was truly amazing and too easily brushed aside. I don’t think we’ve seen a champion that dominated with such ease as Anderson did. Aside from a few lack luster performances, he really looked like a magician in there.
- @@hansoloburger2322 . It means this card was stacked with high level fighters. The present day UFC mainly promotes hype trains because they don't have a lot of really talented fighters competing anymore. The UFC now promotes interim belt holders as if they were five time defending UFC champions or something. The present mma fan base is mainly made up of casuals though, and they get on board any hype train. So, the UFC has to do what it has to do.
@ “they don’t have a lot of really talented fighters anymore” you’re just dribbling utter nonsense. Who are these interim champs they promote as if they’re 5 time defending champs? Do you know who one of the first people I heard start using the term casual regularly was? Schaub. Honestly what does the term casuals mean nowadays? It used anytime somebody wants to try act superior
- @@hansoloburger2322 . You're a casual. That simply means you don't pay a lot of attention to what goes on in the UFC. They promote interim belt holder 15 and 3 Tom Aspinall as if he was a five time defending champion when he's only had one high level fight against an out of prime Andrei Arlovski. Then they promote guys like Khamzat as if he was a five time defending champion. I could go on and on. They're regularly comparing new prospects to former high level champions these days while the casual mma media outlets promote them.
Good afternoon everyone, greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷 UFC 126, the event that marked the take-off of MMA/UFC in my country. Anderson Silva vs Vitor Belfort was the fight of the century for us Brazilians in MMA/UFC A big hug and happy 2025 to all 🫂🔥
Who had vibes and nostalgia for UFC Undisputed 3 with this intro and Mike Goldberg's narration? Who agrees that Mike is the GOAT of UFC and combat sports narrators in the USA and whoever wants him to be the UFC announcer again in the USA?
I keep seeing this thing about DJ and his UFC treatment. YOU GUYS, the fans, are the ones that screwed him over and left him hanging. Dana doesnt buy the PPVs, YOU do. DJ had the least ppv pull in ufc history and you guys wanna talk about how much dana hated him. YALL hated him too and the numbers show. Yall just meat riding him now to have another reason to hate dana lol
RIP to Kid Yamamoto.
a dam month with no ufc events? you guys putting this out came in handy.
Honestly bro
Goldberg sounds like a South Park movie trailer announcer.
Prime Silva was something else. 16 fight UFC win streak and only two of those went to decision. 14 finishes out of 16. Just absurd
SHA
11:31 with the absolute worst corner advice in history.
2:36:05 😂
3:28:14 stop it joe😂

Shiiiit, meanwhile DJ grew a beard and Joe Rogan lost his hair
Time flies
jones, dj, and silva all in one card is crazy
lol UFC trying to bring back DJ after disrespecting him for years ever since he won the belt
Yeah because he’s the most important thing on this card.
@@maoribrotha53no he aint
@JoshMarine81-ze8jy Exactly. 🤣🤣😂
Cuz they want an almost 40 year old DJ to lose to the current champ to push their narrative.
@@rayd3268 no shot DJ loses tho...
DJ, Cowboy, and Mendes in the prelims man what a time
Lies!
Right? Hell DJ's debut!! Damn
Time has passed quite a bit since then for sure.
@@markus8834and quick too.
17:33 DJ taking that questionable knee and not doing the bs to get a call was sweet. He was like nah foo we good let’s fight.
Does anyone know the name of KID Yamamoto's walkout song?
Sandstorm by Darude
I tried finding it through shazam or Google :( nothing
griffin vs silva man that some level nasty level gap
Prime DJ was something to see
So awesome
How OLD is this Video?
Man the intros into ppv back in day were hype af

the good old days
All of these fighters in this video look like it old fight just remake it and it wasn't new video
- Back when UFC fans didn't need a hype train.
What does that even mean?

@@CalvinW.Allison also smart move staying away from that talent opinion in your rebuttal
They had 3 of the goats of mma in this card crazy
old school ufc soud better when the song of the fighter's play then now
how does DJ look 10 years older than his current self in this replay from 13 years ago?
He doesn't
Back when we still had the best PPV intro 1:25:50
"Cê tá pronto? cê ta pronto? Então vamo pra briga"
The days when simply landing a 5-second takedown would win you the round
UFC really trying to make DJ come back 😂😂
Both Randy (who was in Vitors corner) and Vitor Belfort got KO’d with a Front kick…. Wow
Custom shorts where cool
I prefer the way it looks now
DJ has to be considered in the Pound for Pound discussion.
At that time UFC seemed to have a better style, best music, intros, better everything
They did...
This was the era.
An era that can never be replicated.

Mighty mouse is the goat end of story 🎉🎉 beautiful debut👍
Dj was a beast wonder how he would be in prime.
DJ’s double legs are unreal. Such an elite fighter. Easily my favorite fighter of all time
Mighty Mouse 👑💪🔥🔥🔥
MAN, can ufc 311 come around already ?? I need some UFC 😂😅😅
Back when fighters got to wear their own shorts with sponsors in not those lame basic venom fight kit shorts
RIP KID YAMAMOTO ;(
Dope
HOLY SH*TTT JOE HAD HAIR!!! Cowboys debut!! Griffin vs Franklin!! Damn this was sooo long ago! 🤘❤🔥🤘
Yep 2011
Зур😊
Олга❤
GOLDBERG!!!!
Kid Yamamoto with the sickest shorts to grace the octagon and his team with the hardest fits ever.
Kid Yamamoto tidak ada bakat bertarung. Sebaiknya masuk penari balet..
@@Wnss-yz1jo trolling is corny
Wow. What a card. ❤
I love ufc ❤❤❤❤❤
Jon Jones vs Anderson Silva would have been awesome
Rip Joe Rogan. Cant believe he was apart of the drone explosion in texas.
Its nice to hear his voice
What?
@@rayd3268trolling
This is Mighty Mouse first fight in the ufc… DJ is something special
👏👏👏👏👏
MIGHTY MOUSE JOHNSON!!!
*Chad was absolutely an elite wrestler back then at featherweight.*
Miki Maus je najbolji MMA borac svih vremena,bez konkurencije,nitko ni blizu njemu
did not remember Jon Jones being so much bigger than Bader
Who had vibes and nostalgia for UFC Undisputed 3 with this intro and Mike Goldberg's narration?

Y'all should start from scratch and upload the events from UFC 1
Here we go!!!!
Where's the timestamp wizard?
Chill with the TikTok attention span..
When Japan met American freestyle wrestling......

He sucked
New fans are always crying about fighter pay and never buy the ppv
I love UFC
Jones is still at the top.
KID YAMAMOTO😍
🙏🏻
Mighty mouse one of the best you'll ever witness
มันส์แน่
Watching even this DJ fight made me wanna goudge mu eyes from boredom... F outta here. W dana white for letting him loose.
The two lawn guys need to stick to cutting grass
14:22 this is beautiful shorts ☺️
It’s crazy how good of an idea it was to get rid of Goldberg
I hear this Johnson guy might be good
I hear that he is goat material
Prime trt era ✅
Pre usada✅
lol, literally no one cared about PED's in MMA back then...Vitor openly on TRT for no reason and Silva doing UFC cribs with HGH pens out in the open 😂
2011 ? one of the worst years of maple leafs sports history
Anabolic Steriods😂😂😂😂
若き堀口が😢
DJ doing DJ things! 🐐
Wow...a 13 year old PPV...thanks Dana...
Can't even give us an old PPV from 2023 huh?
JOHNSON SHOOTS LIKE A TESLA DUDE IS SWIFT!!!! AAYYYYYEEEEE🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This clip is so pathetic
UFC ts more boring...
I miss goldy commentary
Virtually identical
Banuelos bukan petarung, lebih cocok jadi pawang ular.
