I'm millions of miles away having cold feet for two fighters who are sitting close to each other and still very confident and i have never been hit in 20 years or so.
Du Plessis is one of the few guys who doesn't sound like he has a chip on his shoulder. No smack talk has seemed to phase him at all or gotten him actually mad. He's a just a tough happy dude, with a lot of good in his life and all he cares about outside his social circles is fighting. It makes him pretty scary.
@@YakubTheScientist8841 I said he’s a human with emotions, that isn’t defending. But keep trying to get a reaction you’re looking for. Hope you have a good day
I believe he w definitely use his wrestling us Izzy sucks at wrestling defense..if DDP is smart he w wear down Izzy’s striking if DDP use his wrestling he can and w submit Izzy..Uzzys game plan w be stay outside chipping chopping away DDP to neutralize his game plan !!😮😮😮😮😮😮
I have respect for both of these, some of my favorites. I've been following both Izzy and Dricus for many years but as a South African citizen, I would love Dricus to win this fight but may the best man win
@@zkprooffacts....Las Vegas opened up as izzy as the fav. Now on fight night the odds may change but...idk man its 50/ 50 fight but ill choose DDP to win
DDP is so African, izzy would never find him on fathers day. Congrats to the first true African champion who lives and trains in africa, breaths African air!
He talked about how other Africans fighters who were champions moved out of the country to push his narrative of being the first real African champion. Even tho said champions conditions were horrible or family had them moved. To say you are the first real African champions is outstandingly disrespectful. Look at history just a couple of decades ago and see if that should really fly out his Caucasian South African mouth 😂 the ignorance is wild
Yikes. I would not admit that again. I would delete this comment actually. Dude is a steroid cheat, he is a dog diddler and he is addicted to cartoon pornography. Big yikes from me
Izzy is an alright dude when he comes down to earth anf humbles himself, but when he tries to be brash its just so cringe and unlikeable. He seems to lack self awareness.
I see Drickus underestimate Izzy, he’s head is big now.. the way he talks he’s figured Izzy out.. I just wish he doesn’t go in with that mentality. Adesanya is very dangerous when he is calm..
He’s going to like Izzy less when He gets beat like an amateur. There is levels to this fight game n Dricus doesn’t seem like he believes he’s ready to take it to that next level
That was a response to Izzy posting a picture on X of both of their crotch areas circled and highlighted asking “who’s the real African”? Go have a look and if you still feel the same about the outro then it is 100% you who is “sus”.
It's a shame that these two don't show more respect towards eachother because they are BOTH carrying the African MMA scene on their shoulders. And all this unnecessary racial tention between the two is just not what African MMA needs right now
For a white man, who's ancestors came to Africa and slaughtered native Africans and took their land, for him to say that Izzy is not a real African is the ultimate disrespect! His statement made not just Izzy mad, but he pissed off alot of black mma fans! He made the fight into racial tension!
@@biggaboydraws5483 like it or not , white people are now born and raised in South Africa, me being one of them, some of us in the younger generations are trying to move past this and build a future for all. That being said, dricus didn't once bring race into the equation. I don't disagree with you for the statement being unnecessary, but race wasn't brought once into he equation. Why this all is so stupid is because it's being boiled down to a race debate amongst fans.
i wouldnt say its uneccesary. ddp is african yes but by marketing himself as the first african champ or the real african champ, is ignoring history and dishonest. francis ngannou is from cameroon and lived there until he was 26. he is also a native. he was the first african champ. ddp is impressive and is a good representative for south africa, but hes not a representative for the entire continent.
As a South African I would like DDP to keep his belt and not lose it on his first Match as Champion,but I think Israel is the better fighter and has more experience.
middlewwight is so fuckin goofy, pereira gets the belt, instantly loses it. izzy gets the belt, instantly loses it. strickland gets the belt, instantly loses it. really wouldnt be suprised if ddp loses it but id like ddp to break that streak
I think ddp is something like 33-2 in his professional career , k1 champ . EFC champ. UFC champ ...etc etc , if you're going to talk about experience how come you're ONLY counting UFC fights . DDP has over 30 wins in combat sports
Dricus saying Me made the holes in Whittaker but he previously said “he always gets hurt by southpaw jabs” is so stupid. The more I hear this guy talk the more annoying he gets
As much as I hate Izzy because hes just overall cringe, but no way DDP winning this fight if unless he grapples from start to finish. People forget that Izzy is up there with Pereira when it comes to striking.
Yep. DDP needs to comes forward and walk him down, put Izzy on his backfoot and level change. Thing I worry with DDP sometimes his chin is up too high when he's coming forward, which is bad news matching up against a striker like Izzy.
Bro you’re saying that these other guys are not African champs low key and now your backing out of what u said . All u had to do is say I rep Africa… that’s all .
He just stated the facts that he is the only African champion who is actually training in the country living in it and being around its local community everyday, in his eyes, mind and spirit thats what a real African champion means to be. In life when there is no credibility to a subject smart people usually just ignore it thinking of it as a nonsense and people forget quickly, but in this case completely opposite happened people got offended and started making it a racial thing repeating the N word 5 times on live tv I wonder why. Dricus never said that he doesnt think that they are black or that he wants to be a real n***a and be called that way, Izzy just twisted his words and made it a racial thing because he didnt have any real counter arguments to what Dricus really said and meant.
@@fisherlt3 that’s not what he said tho lol he cleaned it up when everybody started calling him racist and what not he knows he’s wrong which is why he keeps explaining it
Dricus is a great fighter, BUT should be man enough to stand behind the "Real African" statements for what they were. Not pretend they were made for different reasons.
its bc of a wrestling background, that sht doesnt go away, african fighters and brazilans are more so brought up through kickboxing, cautiflower ear is a wrestling thing, usually get it in middle school or hs
I'm not gonna white knight dana but is it indeed true francis was offered the biggest contract in history? If so how much more did he want? And I'd guess staying in the ufc would have been a better move for francis popularity and career no?
That's what I keep saying, if anything Strickland nearly knocked Dricus out. That cut was coz of bumping heads. I'd beat on Strickland winning if they fought again
Imagine Dricus in Francis position shoveling sand instead of having the luxury of training in Africa. I wonder if he’ll think Francis is a real champion from Africa then.
Hoping for a back and forth war rather than a boring technical fight.. Wish Izzy's not just hungry but starving and DDP coming with a suplex,a DDT and lands a Diamond Cutter on Dogbender for a 1,2,3
I'm millions of miles away having cold feet for two fighters who are sitting close to each other and still very confident and i have never been hit in 20 years or so.

You and me.
Im as much of an izzy hater as anyone, but when he is the challenger and he isn’t cocky or arrogant, he’s the most dangerous he can be
Izzy was being shitty towards the end of his interview.
Izzy was the champion before he got the money and fame I don't think the hunger of him is still there
Just admit that you like the guy, don't act like you're some hater that says nice things, that's cringe af

Africa for the win. Respect to both Izzy and Dricus (3kus).

Thanks for the video, MMA CRAZY
its like the ultimate watch showdown ...
Imagine DDP dropped the N word, this PPV would blow up in numbers
He'd get kicked out of the ufc. That would be great
Ya mama
@@regantlew15which is insane. You should be able to say whatever you want and be allowed to go through the consequences
The UFC would not kick him out for that.
You all be thinking like kids sometimes .. what the hell is imagine
Wtf was that ending lmao
Izzy put out a photo, about who is the real African... with a side by side shot of their naughty bits...
DDP is so African, izzy would never find him on fathers day. Congrats to the first true African champion who lives and trains in africa, breaths African air!
I saw footage of him training in Thailand so yeah… he trains where he needs to train he was breathing Thai air and sleeping in Thailand lol
Is this misinformation? Sounds like a deep fake bud. We need fact checkers on this pronto.
I know this cut up asf how long is this unedited 😊
I'm just wondering...Weet Izzy wat ons weet???
getting Bret Hart and Shawn Michael’s vibes
High emotions can help win or lose a fight......i read that somewhere!
Thanks MMA Crazy!
My heart is beating a1000 beats a minute. Can't wait for this fight. I'm from Africa, so my money's on my man Drikus.
Both are great looking forward to it. Izzy makes me cringe sometimes... Reminds me of Tito on the mic.
Dricus is a stoic and a great role model.
Izzy is a weirdo and the worst thing to happen to a generation of fans.
Do you think if the UFC were to throw a fighter out, it would be izzy? lol ok
Maga
And you are a baby that needs professional fighters to be "role models".

This gonna be a banger!
No hate towards Dricus
But I’m rooting for Izzy.. I don’t know why but I really really like him.
Yikes. I would not admit that again. I would delete this comment actually. Dude is a steroid cheat, he is a dog diddler and he is addicted to cartoon pornography. Big yikes from me
Maybe because you like bestiality just like your comrade Dogbender does? 🐶
Lol Driccus at the end thou 😂😂
Izzy goofy
Ya mama like it
Izzy is about to drag this muzungu 😅
Izzy has gone next level look out Dricus
We kind of know what will happen. Izzy will get backed on the cage and will fight or die there. That has been his trend in his last few fights.
I hope not. He needs to dominate and press
Trust me Dricus is the most focused on victory Ive seen a MMA fighter since Conors rise.
Izzy is an alright dude when he comes down to earth anf humbles himself, but when he tries to be brash its just so cringe and unlikeable. He seems to lack self awareness.
I believe Izzy will look awesome. DDP is a great fighter aswell. This should be a really great fight
Izzy is chilled af bro be afraid
Lol chilled izzy is dangerous Man. U no nothing

So can someone tell me, What Exactly did DDP say about izzy that they keep talking about?
Dricus said he was going to be first champion from Africa. Izzy took it as insult, dricus claimed izzy didn't count as he didn't grow up in Africa
Izzy gone dark mode ! 🥶
woof woof, hide your puppies from this man.

LOOOOOOOOOOOLLLL
Aai you guys posting the same things over and over

Izzy beat Pereira in a way that's scary and beautiful at the same time. Dricus is in for a fight for his life.

Double Ko, vacant strap. Best case scenario
