We all here from Twitter right 💀

[@MMALineMover]

Only cuz i saw it had 53 views LMAO

[@MikeNolan59]

50 to 1k views this vid has popped off 🧨

[@goodxd701]

Shit had like 53 views

[@Pxja]

Yep

[@Chris-bu5yn]

Pretty sure that’s the only reason it has 2k views 😂

[@CinnamonPauloGuy]

We haven’t seen a star like Steve Erceg in years, he should’ve been main event for UFC 300

[@TheLooseJoints]

The bmf champion has a name and it’s Steve

[@Illuso07]

These guys are really doing numbers

[@okayaero9525]

This comment has more likes the the video itself

[@UsykWillBeatFuryViaEzDecision]

@@okayaero9525😂😂

[@goodxd701]

Greatest ppv of all time and might be better than 300

[@aidenog7380]

It’s the channel Alex periera interview has 4K in a week

[@thatguy5779]

Ufc 301 is so cooked

[@jrkrvr7596]

Steve Erceg is easily the new cash cow of combat sports

[@giobtw]

This a glitch right? There’s no way the views are that low 💀💀

[@marimo5039]

Came here to find out if it was true cuz of many media post of how low the views are😭💀💀

[@aidenog7380]

[@aryamanmani4025]

2 goats of the sport. Gimme another flyweight banger.

[@clayparson7899]

These guys are absolute dawgs, views don’t mean anything this is gonna be a banger.

[@laxsypher4825]

Yk this is bad when it’s only 55 views, this shouldn’t be the main event of 301, like Pantoja, but he should get another opponent

[@edmundopadilla1956]

Pantoja dogwalks top 10 flyweight and he already beat most of them, who do you think could’ve get the title fight instead of erceg?

[@laxsypher4825]

@@edmundopadilla1956 mokaev most likely, even though he has a boring style, but it would have been competitive

[@dedde1311]

This interview is doing numbers....

[@Pxja]

The view count is just sad

[@TecateRed]

I miss Brandon Moreno

[@courbotantoine]

I won't let my goat pantoja not have enough views

[@brock6975]

less than 1000 views in a day for a ufc championship fight is actually crazy

[@Ada1berto]

The fact that this videos views are mainly from people coming from twitter is even more hilarious lmaooo if we weren’t here it would still be at 53 views

[@muscularcheeseburger8100]

Dude, 500 views for an interview between the main event fighters is insane

[@Flexrush]

This kids a star

[@luisreyes8437]

Who else came here just to see how many views it had? 🤣

[@jklight2957]

UFC 301 ab to go crazy with 30 pov buys🔥🔥🔥

[@ottolotto7057]

Less than 1k views in 24 hrs is crazy

[@wassimrahmani3561]

Guys it’s the channel, they don’t get much views

[@Daily.Dose.of.clips.]

It's a really nice fight I am definitely buying the ppv💀💀

[@icone106]

Business baby

[@wassimrahmani3561]

Bro 1.5K views is crazy

[@MMA_CAT]

That’s how many ppvs they will sell for this one

[@gibramchannel1770]

Todos estamos aquí solo por el meme, pero aún así un canal de 800k y la entrevista solo con 2k… esta pelea no la desea nadie

[@liamrose.9]

respect to both these men above all but yea… people clearly arent interested sadly

[@oceanman1288]

Ufc 301 headliner ladies and gentlemen

[@CombatSportsGaming]

Who else is here to see if it really had 50 views?

[@goodxd701]

Crazy this only past 1k views cause of a Twitter post

[@houstontonyy945]

Only reason this vid has more than 500 views is because everyone roasting them …. A UFC MAIN EVENT FIGHTER brought 60 views in a day

[@shrektheogre2853]

Would rather watch moreno vs figuereido 7

[@akshaypanwar4964]

Add CM punk to this card and it's a banger

[@Angee570]

damn

[@TelvinKipapa]

Look at those views. 1 million ppv buys!

[@logantheriot1193]

805 views in one day

[@cc_5108]

Lolll I came just to see how bad the numbers are

[@BasedMMA]

I single-handedly saved this ppv, I’m the tweeeter guy😂❤

[@Rindo_007]

TMZ doesn't get views period..

[@danapink2503]

Twitter gang 😂

[@jamesgarland8322]

This is more a knock on tmz sports and not the ufc. These mfs don’t get any views on any of their videos .

[@MadCat541]

672 views 😭 ufc 301 is cooked

[@ArmandoCamacho-do5fv]

Jajajajaja
