The Champ🙏🏿
Him 🇧🇷 vs 🇺🇲 Johnson next in December will be 😭🔥
Gotta appreciate Pantoja for giving us exciting fights and fireworks. The kid always takes damage in his fights and the fans need to relax a little bit. Can't blame him for making the most out of things considering his late fame. Anyway, congrats to Brazil for having the worst crowd.
The kid? Hes a 34 year old men on the back end of his career
@@Peapodzilla’kid’ is a term of endearment. Dana White uses it frequently. Also the above post you replied to says the same thing about finding fame at the end of Pantoja’s career. have another read (:
@@Peapodzillahe’s not in the back end in his career it’s the opposite he’s in his prime right now
@@martyfakenewsman170 you can be in your prime while in the backend of your career 🤣
He's got 5 years left tops, probably less.
Bro needs to learn ground and pound, he has some entertaining fights but most of his control time equates to no damage.
Just came here to let you know that DJ would absolutely destroy him.
Pantoja isn't Ray Borg or Tim Elliot lol. It won't be as easy as you think.
@@Sheamusownscena10yeah it wouldn’t be but pantoja gets hit way too much. If he fought somebody with real power, he would get slept. Fortunately no one at FW has power like that. Omalley would hurt him.
@@Sheamusownscena10Mighty has 5x the striking and would strangle him on the ground.
@@dragonslayer1888 Pantoja has never been finished before
Yeah man mighty would light him up but good on him for wanting to test him self but he will learn quick about coming in with hands down dj probably will knock him out
Fun fact, He said “you know” over 150 times during this interview (I counted) 😅 not making fun but definitely notice it every time haha
How many languages do you speak? This is his third language
That’s why I said not making fun haha I love how he talks and no one who’s first language is English could get away with it like he does and a lot of us still do it anyway
Just to add on: Volk who is a native speaker keeps using the term 'obviously' repeatedly
Too much time on your hands.
@@nn4mz took literally not one second more than it took to just listen to the interview… you wasted more time commenting that than I did counting 🤷♂️
I like my boy PanTy! But what from his performance made him think he can take on mighty?
That would be amazing and an insane comeback story for dj if he came back to a stacked ppv as the main event with the pay and ppv points he’s always wanted now that he’s more popular than ever. Contract with one fc prevents this absolutely tho sadly
He’s obviously trying to hide the damage he took lol
Yeah, he looks super beaten up🤨
You can literally see that it's cloudy outside since it's Autumn over there
Yes!
👏👏to his management team . Good to listen to a Brazilian speak English . A change from the likes of Aldo (refused to learn English even-though he was living in Florida for a long time . and Charles Oliveira who claims he’s from the Bronx but can’t speak English !
Too be considered a dawg in a fight, someone had to have pushed you to that point. Erceg is going to be the champion after another undefeated title run.
Glad to see Pantoja backing himself but staying humble. This is what he needs to grow into the champ role. Keep doing what hes doing and keep improving.
Just came here to say mighty channel is elevating way more rapidly than yours
Pantoja so underated
Time stamp for Mighty chat?
Pantoja won this 48-47 and the quantity of takedowns and control where the difference maker. Erceg had some good moments on the feet but he did miss a chunk of his strikes and he never hurt Alex. Damage is key but It's accumulative damage and you don't win a round or a fight automatically from just a cut. Erceg simply did not land enough consistent shots to clearly take the majority of rounds and let's not pretend Alex didn't land solid shots when he Blitz'd in either, he absolutely did. Alex simply did more in this fight and the right mans hand was raised.
Leon has 2 as well.
Usman 3
Colby
All the respect to pantoja erceg had a awesome performance but I still see pantoja out score him sat night
Don’t trust your corner on judging the rounds. We see it over and over again. Coaches might be carried away, influenced by the audience or fall in love with the game plan; seeing things work but they do not score.
Alex and his team believing they were 3:0 when going in the fourth round is crazy. Congrats to him for the W though
You know
Bring back Demetrius !!!!!! Yes please
Alexandre “you know” Pantoja
I had no dogs in this fight and saw no robbery. Close fight but the champ won. Seeing a pattern now with close fights with Aussies in them though.
3-2 Pantoja clearly
Damage already healed
He may have won the contest but lost the fight let’s be honest 😷
Pantoja a really nice dude and it hurts to hate the player but THE NECK KISSER LOST. All the best tho.
Bro, you do realize that he out struck Erceg in the 1st and 3rd and that Erceg was the one that went for "neck kissing" which cost him the fight?
@@jayn6943Sean Strickland outstruck dricus so does that mean Sean won?
@@jayn6943 😚
@@liamjones7329 Well, yes. Sean barely touched the ground. The guy bounced right, back. DPP wasn't able to advance in positions or add strikes (unlike Pantoja).
@@jayn6943 fully understand but I look at it like this. Pantoja threw more but worse shots and erceg threw less but better shots if that makes sense.
Quality over quantity ya know.
It would be a dream fight. Useless call out
Bro this guy didn’t win his last fight
The DJ fight won't happen because the UFC don't make fights with other promotions.
Pantoja should have called out Cejudo.
Lmao Cejudo is in a losing streak
Cejudo already said he can't make 125 again
Cejudo isn’t at 125
Erceg should be the champ right now
casual
Why? He got out struck and out Grappled in the 1st and 3rd and lost the 5th out of stupidity
Agreed man. I dont know how anyone can actually say pantoja deserved that win. All fighters should just give up striking if this is how they score. Get a couple takedowns with couple soft punches and you win. Why even try to submit him or punch just hold him for 8 minutes out of the 25 and you win.
Pantoja clearly win but not 49-46
@@Darb__Pantoja won 49-46. He won the first three rounds striking. The grappling was just extra. And people who don't like grappling can always watch muay Thai, boxing, kick boxing, etc. Instead of MIXED martial arts.
Those flurries will get countered by any boxer in that division Steve should of really been hitting him the straights and uppercuts when he came in rushing
thats what the elbow to left hook was for: pantoja also has a monstrous chin
buddy lost the 5th round and the fight but these judges havent read the criteria
casual
They landed the same amount of strikes in the 5th. The tie breaker was Grappling.
Read the Criteria, it says that Striking AND Effective Grappling are part o Plan A- Effectiveness.
@@jayn6943 pantoja had 0 effective grappling, smudging on the fence isnt effective and erceg was cutting him up bad and damaging him on ground more than pantoja did
erceg had clear win in the on feet strikes
@@dwoh4345 Do you know the definition of Effective Grappling, my friend?
According to the Criteria, Effective Grappling can be achieved by adding strikes, submission attempts, TAKEDOWNS, GAINING POSITIONS, and REVERSALS.
So yes, what Pantoja did was the definition of Effective Grappling.
You may no like it or agree with it but it's in your best interest to accept it. Otherwise you'll only get frustrated by most decisions where the winner is a Grappler.
@@jayn6943 there is a caveat that says for it to beeffetive grappling you have to atempt submissions or strikes but he didnt have any strikes that mattered erceg landed way more and cut him up
erceg advantageo n feet enough won this
controll smudging doesnt count for anything due to the only thing that is scored in mma is things that have the potential of ending the fight, pantoja half guard cmaping does not ahve the potential to end thefight
" I know how to score "
Immediately proceeds to score a take down above damage.
He made a point of ending pretty much every round with a takedown and having top position LOOKING dominant, and the judges are stupid so if they see a guy end the round in a dominant grappling position, they’ll favour him 10x. So yes, he does know how to score
This was a clear 3-2 Erceg
Not clear at all rd 3 was a toss up
Learn mma before commenting and cope
It was most clearly not 3-2 erceg
It was 4-1 Pantoja.
@@QuestionMarkKick360 no it wasn’t
It was 3-2
Rd 3 being the toss up rd
Erceg was robbed
casual
What makes you think that?
@@jayn6943 Damage over control, Erceg clearly did more damage for a 3 round stretch, like I don't get how it can be scored otherwise. I even give Erceg the 5th.
Even though erceg got outstriked for 3 rounds landed less sig strikes got taken down 8 more times and got controlled on the mat for 10 minutes 😂😂😂
@@dragonslayer1888 Buddy, Pantoja didn't win because of Control time.
He won because he out struck (Sig. Strikes) Steve for two rounds by quite a good amount.
The tie breaker was the 5th where they landed the same amount and then Steve decided to shoot on Pantoja who out Grappled him and landed Strikes in top position.
That's why Pantoja's team, Erceg's team, Commentators, analysts and judges all agreed that Pantoja won.
You lost dude
Paper champ
Dj punishes this clown
he lost the fight LOL
Askar Askarov would've dogwalked him again
Mokaev wins aswell. pantoja just bullies strikers
