Guys, give it up, no fighter in the UfC today would have any trouble winning UFC 1 with the skill set of today’s world. The innovation is just way too much and the different techniques are so much better.
Love how he’s trying to make it seem like UFC needs him. They don’t. He’s got a chip on his shoulder because he left himself in the dust with his bad attitude.
Damn a lot of Big John haters in these comments. And i agree with him, there has defintly been mistakes on the UFC broadcast when talking about the rules.
Thank you for your service bug john but we definitely do not want you back. Awful commentary and he barely understands the rules as they are today. He consistently has the worst takes of mma "media" online
@@idriskobe7028 you must be a 70 year old boomer, bc Mccarthy is horrendous,, doesnt even know most modern rules, talks over literal finishes and exciting events,, and misses fight endings all the time bc hes too dumb to shut up and watch the fight. I cant even count the amount of times he was just wrong about many subjects. Hes old , washed up , and doesnt understand modern mma. Also doesn understand commentating and just sucks at it. Josh Thompson is good but not like an all time great.
Let's be real big john should never have left the ufc what ever happened leave it in the past and bring big john back be class to see him back on comms as let's be real the only good commentators the ufc has are joe rogan, john anik din Thomas dom cuz. the rest talk absolute dog shit
He keeps talking about people gaming the downed fighter rules. The point is to protect a defenseless fighter. There is a HUGE difference between a fighter defending themselves and an unconscious or defenseless fighter. Yes knees to a standing fighter can be devastating. We ALREADY saw a guy's skull caved in. They would be even more devastating and possibly fatal for a completely defenseless opponent. The new rule us better because the old rule was dumb. But I'll take a few guys gaming the rules to avoid seeing someone die in the cage.
John knows the way of the future. Is fighters without coaching in the corner. More natural acting fighters. More mistakes. More honesty to the sport. Coaches are rarely former fighters. They put too many emotions into the fighters head. Your down 2 rounds. You need to knock him out. WAIT! A fight finish is the meaning behind the sport of mma. Let them be Gladiators. A fighter who’s working off of their instincts. Will feel less defeated. Than with a coach in the corner, screaming low kick. Now that fighter is forced to focus on his opponent; while ignoring the selfish coach. (KRON’s distractions in the cage). Disappointment set in. Fans lose a brawl. If a coach dictates a fighters final round of exertion.
@ guess you never jogged 10miles daily for a fight camp. Stop. Performing better, can be caused by weightcut issues. We are talking about crowd pleasing. And the natural instincts every human possess. The real Champion is one who can conquer alone. Even Volk said he wish he never listened to his corner in a Title fight. Lets continue with jump the gilly. With Dustin. He thought about his coaches saying no. Then it was too late. And the position was reversed on him. Simple intelligence is what makes competition fun. Not game planning any stall tactics between rounds.
@ Streetbeefs wildness with trained athletes. No pressure to be perfect. Coaches remain private. Fighting is 90% mental. 10% physical. Supposedly! Not my phrase. Only the crowd coaches you. Gladiators won some and lost some.
Watch the interview 🙈 he explains he has 1 or 2 fights of PFL /Bellator Choice to do he isn’t sure on the future of the Org due to lack of fights and events .. but he can go work for other orgs like UFC ,BKFC or whoever he wants -
@@CrushDontRush I wonder if he regrets being so habitually negative and critical of the UFC in his podcast over the years. One never knows when you may need the organisation that you've been repetitively criticising. It didn't stop him from pitching himself as the UFC technical analyst, go Big John, shoot your shot 😂
@@jonoharper4729 yeah Dana isn’t big fan of John but he does have more knowledge then all The ufc commentators as far as Rules / true history of MMA .. but he def didn’t do himself favors criticizing UFC but he was around before Dana in UFC he wrote the rule book and had to deal with No Holds Barred Days. So John def is huge part of the History but like Randy Couture Dana kinda erases the History in casual fans eyes they don’t understand John’s contributions etc. but we shall see what Gigs he gets offered 🤔 I’m guessing he will have better shot being part of new GFL 🫣 should be interesting 💯 good point
No they don’t need rules analysts for broadcasts. How often do the rules even come up? There’s 2 world champions at the desk, I’m sure there’s not often a situation where people don’t figure out what’s going on. Ridiculous lol big John has become so self absorbed with the rules. They obviously don’t matter. You can break every rule in the book, nothing will ever happen. In fact, the guy who breaks the rules most is considered the goat. Rules lol
Any organization would be lucky to have Big John as a rules analyst, UFC included. Very few people in the world know mma rules as much as Big John

Are u talking about big John?
Marc Ratner does a fine job when they allow him to speak on the broadcasts. They should just utilize him more
nahhhh
Let's get it on - Big John McCarthy
Damn a lot of Big John haters in these comments. And i agree with him, there has defintly been mistakes on the UFC broadcast when talking about the rules.
The number one combat sports organization in the world needs John McCarthy? These guys are hilarious
Royce wouldn’t make it past 3 fights if he had to fight modern UFC fighters at any weight class.
No shit sherlock thats like saying oscar robinson wouldnt have all his triple doubles in todays NBA league…
BIG John has a very good voice an a calm way about him. UFC would be wise to take John on board more often. .
I would absolutely love to see Big John in the UFC is some aspect, it would only make sense given what he's done for the sport.
Thank you for your service bug john but we definitely do not want you back. Awful commentary and he barely understands the rules as they are today. He consistently has the worst takes of mma "media" online
Saying the guy who helped create the rules doesn’t understand the rules has gotta be one of the worst takes on the internet
@ghagzor I'm confused.... I think he'd be a great addition to Thomas
Mccarthy has been talking shit on the ufc since joining pfl now since pfl is collapsing. "ufc needs new analysis" 😂😂
Great seeing Big John!!
When they're talking, who says the words" you know" the most times? Big John or Colby Covington.
Legend
No thank you big John. Thank you for your service early on but having heard you on Bellator, no. Just
awful commentary and no better rule analyst.
hes so awful at what he does.. on the other hand, maybe pfl will be better without him too..
Out of all that was bad with bellator, listening to him and Thomson was top 3 for me

Literally no one has died in one championship lololol. You're just a casual.
Wait so McCarthy is saying that Kron Gracie would beat Ken Shamrock in 1993? Hell no! Lol. Shamrock was a juiced up monster

Fighters always perform better with a corner.

Did he and Josh get fired from PFL?

Big John Mcshuturassy. UFC Rules
John’s fucked up mma enough get him outta there, thanks but NO thanks.

Imagine one rule analyst on this special rule sand cards where some guys can pull 10+ faults without losing points.
Gorgeous George and gurlz....Love these two
THERE IS ZERO REASON TO EVER TALK ABOUT KRON THE LOSER.
😂
Crappy show!
big loser mccarthy
