Using your platform to allow others to shine is pretty sweet bro! All the best!
Can't wait to see Izzy watch BD's ufc fights.
You read my mind 100%✊
Respect
Izzy is a real one for his people 💯 🙌
Agree much ❤ to the new Zealand camp of fighters bareman building a great bunch kai kara proved that too respect earnt eternally.
Izzy is a real one. Putting his friends on!
Your supposed to do that!
@@BlackXat722 what are you saying
For real! This makes you like Izzy even more!
He's always been real💯
Eugene probably helped this man even more than Izzy.
This can be the start of a new series: Faces of CKB - I bet there are some amazing stories. The energy from everyone in there when Blood gets the contract... wow, can feel the love.
Great idea bro 👌😍
I watch fighters from CKB with special interest. Nice idea!!
Damn I teared up when I heard the coach’s voice waiver in the build up to announcing his UFC contract. You can hear the real pride in his heart.
He knows that kid put his soul into it 💯
That was some good acting or he really did choke up, I'm going with acting very impressive.
@@countys32 he choked up
the roar when Blood Diamond got announced with a contract. CKB loyalty runs deeper than deep 💯
This is fuckin crazy am from Zimbabwe!!
This is why Izzy is the man, winning is all good, but winning with your brothers is what it's about🙌🏾
Looking forward to watching Blood Diamond🇿🇼
Well said bro
Press f to pay respects
Dude I'm actually so moved by this. Seeing the comradery and love they have for each other there at City kickboxing, it's unbelievable, it's rare in this day in age honestly. It's great to see. It's is contagious infectious energy. It's cool to see those young Eugene pictures. 🤘 Love this guys style and personality and him and Izzy's patience with their work ethic and staying motivated no matter what it takes, you keep on going, they keep going. It's inspiring as heck.
You sound like a casual 🤓
@@daddymayoman2073 if you're not training striking and grappling everyday you're a casual. Only non casual fans are the fighters, if all you do is watch other people put in the actual work you're just a casual fan of a sport, only way to not be is to entrench your daily life in it, not watching RUclips or ESPN+ streams.
@@christophermhudson09 Thats the dumbest shit I've ever read
@@marcusbailey3988 ikr?
Bro I almost teared up myself when Eugene was about to. David killed it with this video ✊🏼
Wholesome. Inspirational.
And just like that, I'm invested in seeing where this guy could go.
So proud that Zimbabwe now has a fighter in the UFC! Can’t wait for him to crush it come February🇿🇼

One love Africa 3Nigeria 1 Cameroon 1 Zimbabwe we need more Africa to take over one love
@@averagecasual4801 stfu
Blood has one of the scariest lead leg head kicks I’ve ever experienced, he walks you down with the face of a stone cold killer and then BANG his left shin comes over your shoulder so you don’t see it coming at an incredible speed, he can throw them so fast it’s terrifying. He also loves to spin, crazy man. Good luck brother.
Yes, his kicks special. And I think he has a solid chin. Cos dude connected clean with an uppercut only for diamond to knock him out simultaneously, he ate that uppercut like nothing. 7:43 of the video
You fought him?
🇿🇼Zimbabwe stand up! Will always be a big fan of Blood Diamond; wishing him the best in his UFC career!! 🇿🇼
@zuze He sure is my brother! Born in Zim, moved to NZ! So gassed he's part of CKB and training with Israel. We all know iron sharpens iron; only diamonds can cut diamonds, and Israel is pretty much flawless - Blood Diamond is about to show the UFC what Zimbabwe is about
Yooo I got a heart! Means a lot thank you! Love from the UK via Zimbabwe.
P.S. F*ck Whittaker up for the *third* time. Respectfully.
Izzy showed a great love for his African brother....WE ARE ONE BODY🦾
He’s gonna get smashed just like adesanya in his next fight
TICHAURAYA MUNHU WESE!!!!!!!
Izzy, thank you for this. Letting your people shine is important. You’re a great role model for us all. Respect.
Izzy don't like the term "role model" 🤣
Izzies love for his team mates is so infectious
This proves that Izzy has zero problem spreading the wealth! Using his platform to help his colleagues shine! Tip my hat Izzy this is Awesome!
Maaan all respect to izzy always gives his people the shine.. got a platform where he can showcase the boys.. debut has already generated hype
Having your coach tell you you're in the UFC like that must feel incredible
How wholesome is izzy? Champ both inside and outside the octagon. Promotes his teammates and cares genuinely about them
You have no idea how inspiring this has been to me... been chasing after my medical degree for about 10 years now and I will be back in this comment section in a few months now with my success story. I wish him more success and more wins... Kubudirira
Go hard bro !
@@md23603 Final year medicine bro! keep pushing the only person that can stop you from doing you is you.
Naija no dey carry last.... best part is, it doesn't matter when you finish as long as you no carry last. Go crush your dreams bros and do it with passion.
My Man!!!💪🏽🙏🏽
Chokwadi .
I wish BD the best. He's an exciting fighter, and an even more chill man. There's some stiff competition at welterweight though, so he best be on his game if he's gonna start walking through that division.
Is he in welterweight? Damn😣
@@weirdo4653 was thinking the same...we already have Kamaru there😓
"They came to watch a fight, and I gave them a fight to watch." That's a fucking great line.
Can't wait for his debute, absolute beast and great nickname
I absolutely love how you and your team mates are genuinely happy and supportive of eachother. You dont see this in many gyms
Shout out to David for the well-edited videos I especially enjoyed this one
Who is here after he got smash at his debut in the UFC...
Very bad stylistic match up for him. Wells is a nasty bjj black belt and he knew exactly what to do to beat diamond. If diamond doesn't sharpen up his grappling unfortunately every other grappler will have the same success
49 seconds in and this guys all ready got all my support, Nz showing the world what we got🤙
Nz doesn't have nothing... these are imported talents that still get treated like trash
.
@@andrewaniche7751 Dan, Kai, Shane, brad. Not bad for a small country where mma is only getting popular now
How racist is NZ? I cant get over the pain in his eyes when he talked about living in that small town as a kid :(
@@mmastoryline623 it ain’t that bad compared to bigger countries
Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Team Adesanya.🙏👍🏽
Black greatness is everything.
@@southhour5241 lmfao
@@southhour5241 black excellence!
I never expected this kind of content, good fucking shit man. Izzy's out here coming for all the RUclips MMA boys.
What I love about Eugene is other coaches would have put him onto a UFC card with no MMA experience. Eugene knew he was not ready for MMA. What a great freaking Coach Eugene is
Let go!!!!! Blood diamond 🇳🇿 New Zealand proud of you!!!! I’m
Proud of you dude💪🏾💯
Really chill dude. Sat next to him at a amateur MMA show a night before king of the ring. So excited for his debut
Its amazing to see our African brothers making it in the UFC, these guys come from humble backgrounds, inspiring stories.Africa is behind you.#ZambiaIsWatching
Its good to see a team that has such love for everyone, from the top to bottom and beyond!🙏🏾❤
This was a fire video and I'm excited to watch how he develops throughout the course of his career.
fucking oth man cant wait
Does anyone know how old he is
Man you and Izzy's style vibrate on the same frequency. Good luck in your UFC debut brotha. Peace and blessings from the States. Stay up!!!! What's Hatnin Izzy!!!
Big up for giving exposure to our fellow Africans brother..we have been overlooked in sports WAY too much...from football/soccer to basketball. MMA and combat sports are changing that. mad respect bro! OMO NAIJA!
This is such a well put together video.
Entertaining questions delivered by David as always, so looking forward to the debut!
This absolutely amazing content! Love watching Blood Diamonds story.
David, you’re doing an incredible job with these videos. Super talented.
Amazing and humble guy, looks super exciting as a fighter. For sure rooting for this dude!
Izzy this was really nice to see and when you said you was in his corner back then really much love between you two i hope diamond can get far in the ufc and his story is really inspirational!🙏🙌❤
Man I swear after my knee heals I'm going after my dreams, you inspire the fuck out of me thanks man
Keep that same energy.
@@thespeechboss I have for 2 years now, I'll continue
Same here bro! Good luck on your grind!
@@Light-inside-a-meat-suit you too brother
@@tatsuya4887 💪🏿
nice to see izzy using his platform to promote less-known fighters, very cool
Eugene is such a wonderful guy this guy actually genuinely changes people lives and mindset the energy he sets is just amazing you can see he’s just one of the greatest people you can be up under and learn from
My guy 🤝 that last handshake is a thing of beauty. Thanks CKB, don izzy & Eugene for seeing light in darkest places. Your rewards are surely in heaven. Let’s go Diamond

I am from east Africa and always proud of you guys
🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Been looking for some serious breakdowns of Blood Diamond, looks unreal and seriously can't wait for his debut
Honestly my favorite part of the Interview is that u didn't show your face you let all the shine be on him thats inspiration and selfless
As a zimbo, I'm happy to see this, great story, hope to see you do well brother.
it's Rhodesia
Thanks so much for sharing this Izzy. I remember you mentioning Blood Diamond ages ago, saying how amazing he is. We’ve got a little taste now. Can’t wait to see that dude in the UFC.
Shot David Mr interviewer lol great video and introduction to Blood Diamond, looking forward to his debut
You've outdone yourself with this one mate 👌 So well made. A great story that I can't wait to see play out!
Israel is the realist! As soon as I seen the UFC signed blood diamond I immediately thought of how close you guys were in kickboxing days. Love to see this very interested in blood diamonds path in the UFC!
City kickboxing winning man. Multiple champions, multiple world class fighters, and from what I've seen some of the most loyal teammate's in the game. Gotta respect it, gotta love it.
Another dope video, you keep out doing yourself 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 So excited for Bloods! Your father must be one proud Dad! 💪🏾🇿🇼 🇳🇿

Soo good
This was a dope interview
Loads of love from Ghana. African diamonds shine on!
This is awesome Izzy! So well made shout out your brother!
Listening to Blood diamond reminds me of my buddy Victor Henry, who is in the UFC now, we trained together and he did a lot of things like sleep in gyms, snooze in his car. I'm proud of him Blood diamond has a rad story.
Seems like a humble down to earth guy. Got my support. 🇳🇿
Seeing a high level fighter from southern Africa is a different type of motivation 🙏🏾hoping to see him rip through the ufc
First time i heard about this dude. Inspirational and I love his voice and personality. I hope he does well in the UFC, has star potential for sure!
Big props to Izzy and his brother for propping Blood Diamond up on the channel with this amazing promotional video! Can't wait to see Blood Diamond in the UFC during his debut ! 🙌📣😁

Blood diamond is like Izzy’s cool older brother. Thank you for sharing
Really hope these showcases will become a regular series on this channel. Gives me a chance to get invested in the CKB new blood debuting in the UFC
Let’s go Diamond 🇿🇼
Dope video. Love how you use your platform for other fighters. I'll definitely be on the look out for his future fights!
Many thinks Izzy is proud because he wars with the talk, but these behind the scenes displays his humility and how unifying he is of a factor.
Yo straight up I needed this interview and insight, blessings on blessings

Izzy is an incredible human being. He is what most of us hope to be deep down inside. He’s truly inspirational and that’s a great thing to be.
