He's just small and not really controversial, there's no trash talk or drama outside the cage with him. Yet, he's one of the most well-rounded up fighters and up there with the absolute best of MMA.
Tbf, no one knew how high DJ's ceiling was until he got traded to ONE. His trade to ONE was the best thing that happened for his career. He is a superstar over there, won a grand prix, won a super fight against Rodtang, took the undisputed bantamweight title and defended. And he hit so many style points on the way. At this point, who care if the UFC overlooked him. We(the fans) are the ones who ended up winning
I’ll never forget watching that suplex armbar to Ray Borg live. Even though I bet on him to win that made me toss my phone and leave the room. Dude did not have to style on him like that😂
He didn’t, then everyone randomly started talking nonstop about him like a year ago. He’s one of the greats but he’s clearly not the goat, half the people yelling about it didn’t watch him in the ufc
@@danielbras5123I wouldn't say clearly whatsoever, he's argueably the goat or at the very least top 3, title defense record, two division two organization champ, no peds like Jones, or signs of them like gsp. And his competition was arguabley better than some of Andersons for a good chunk of his career. I put him as the goat just cause Jones while having fought better people also was on juice.
@@danielbras5123the other half that did watch his run, know how great he is. DJ is second under JBJ in my opinion. We can’t blame casuals for jumping on the bandwagon this late in his career though. ONE has done a great job promoting him internationally
i met DJ at a jiujitsu tournament this past weekend and he is legitimately such a down to earth nice guy i forgot how badly he beat EVERYONE!! def a legend of the sport
Mighty Mouse is the perfect example of people not knowing what’s there before it’s gone. I’m sure he’d be a big star if he had assault charges or was a dickhead but because he’s a good family man who is clean and enjoys videogames no one gives af about him unless you actually love martial arts like us
It's got nothing to do with that look how beloved GSP is, Robert Whittaker is exactly who you just described and he's almost as popular as Izzy. It's because DJ is small that is literally it. Most people discriminate against short men
@@angelgoo7772 why do you think he wasn't popular? thats literally just the surface of the actual issue which I described but thanks for your pointless input.
GSP was the best traditional martial artist. Jones was just a freak of nature an absolute beast at lhw. Silva had matrix like stand up and made top level guys look like amateurs on the feet. But DJ was the best at mixing the martial arts together his transitions that led to the ray Borg and moraes finishes are amazing to watch and if he was still in the UFC I believe he would still be champ
This video should be in the MMA hall of fame. Holy fuck that was good. Thanks for shining some light on one of the most beloved MMA fighters of all time.
Dj is the best fighter I've ever watched compete, bar none. The UFC is based on popularity and shouldn't be taken seriously when talking about "goats". The number of substance abusing "champions" in their roster is enough to know that. Beautiful video man, you are really talented. Much love. ❤️
DJ is a legend in the making besides being the Goat he is a incredible humble person in and out of the octagon...Great video bro I hope he reacts to it
The trade is the best thing to happen to DJ he is much appreciated in one championship and im happy to see the man getting love and respect he always deserved.. DJ definitely in the GOAT conversation.. Personally gsp for me but DJ definitely up there
Thank you for the 25 minute video Mighty Mouse deserves from the best YT channel around. This man has absolutely been robbed of so much respect and glory.
Never lost a match, never bled, never drink alcohol, never took PEDs, never did trash talk, putting his neck under choke to make his opponent tired, always respected his opponents even during the fights like not breaking arms in front of opponent's parents, only lost 2 rounds in his whole career. And your asking why people could think he’s the goat???
Finally covering DJ , my mans is the GOAT and he beat Moraes and got the ONE Championship Belt back. He needs more respect . DJ Is a honest to goodness, wholesome down to earth , cool dude. I wish I had friends like him I might went better places in life.
Hey, #thefightingbusines this is an amazing and awesome video. I have watched many videos over time, covering the greatness of #DemetriousJohnson as well as more recently the "must have forgot" reputation that #MightyMouse received, but despite how well they did in covering the goat of MMA, I believe you outdid them with this video. Amazing production, thoughtful research, great storytelling without hyperbole, and superb timing to build the emotions. Great job for a great fighter.
undeniably one of goats, there will never be another Mighty Mouse, it is great he is getting the respect that he has earned and definitely deserved a long time ago, but it is unfortunate that it has come at the end of such an amazing career, the ufc should of done a lot more for him, he should of been one of the biggest "stars" always a martial artist first and has always been a highlight for me to watch
Before ufc got wec, I watched a lot of wec fights and the the fights were sometimes better than the ufc and I always thought ufc should add more weight classes. The fly weights were always a personal favorite of mine because these guys had a lot of endurance as well as athleticism. When wec went into ufc I was soo happy and I watched a lot of mighty mouse and rooted for that guy since the beginning. He is the goat for sure.
Man I always saw might mouse as the best if not one of the best when I first got into watching ufc. Yeh jones is there and Anderson, but in my opinion the highest skill level fighters have always been at the lower weight classes at least including just top contendors cuz ofc there the likes of Anderson Silva jones and gsp. But I don’t know why they ever doubted him sure not much knockouts but the dominance was crazy.
If there's one thing to learn from DJ, it's to believe in yourself. Try to listen to one of his episodes with joe rogan cause it's probably gonna put you to tears
You could argue his weight class is less competitive but ever since he switched to one where their lighter weight classes are more competitive it's undeniable that he's just that great
This guy is arguably the greatest fighter of all time but he never gets the respect he deserves
He's just small and not really controversial, there's no trash talk or drama outside the cage with him. Yet, he's one of the most well-rounded up fighters and up there with the absolute best of MMA.
@@sammypenny4510skill wise sure, dudes tiny ash tho so
He´s starting to. Thanks to videos like this
I’ll full fledge say he’s the best when he rematches Henry. The second fight really pissed me off
Because this isn’t a talent show this is show business
Dana and the UFC aren’t getting nearly enough blame they should for not being able to promote this humble martial artist
Tbf, no one knew how high DJ's ceiling was until he got traded to ONE. His trade to ONE was the best thing that happened for his career. He is a superstar over there, won a grand prix, won a super fight against Rodtang, took the undisputed bantamweight title and defended. And he hit so many style points on the way.

@@BestPropTutorials💯💯
@@BestPropTutorials true
@@BestPropTutorials so true. i love what he's done in ONE FC
Fr ONE Championship promoted him so well he became twice as famous when he left the UFC lol
I’ll never forget watching that suplex armbar to Ray Borg live. Even though I bet on him to win that made me toss my phone and leave the room. Dude did not have to style on him like that😂
He did ray borg was talking crazy to master splinter
The funny thing for me is that he did not even have to submit him, like he was dominating the dude. But he did it anyway, dude was glitching IRL.
dont forget flying
You lucky mf
You watched it live bro... I'm jealous
Mighty mouse doesn't get the recognition he deserve's....
Yes he does gramps.... Yes he does. Hes a legend
He didn’t, then everyone randomly started talking nonstop about him like a year ago. He’s one of the greats but he’s clearly not the goat, half the people yelling about it didn’t watch him in the ufc

So maybe it’s just when they’re straight Americans and no accents… fans love the accent🤌🏽
@@trentongutierrez2066No people just don't like lighter weight classes unless you are very people friendly like Uriah Faber or Dominic Cruz
@@theBoarSkinnerno lol it’s because the ufc was greedy and dj wasn’t pulling ppv numbers and was asking for more money
@@angelgoo7772 why do you think he wasn't popular? thats literally just the surface of the actual issue which I described but thanks for your pointless input.
that suplex to armbar finish is arguably the greatest finish of all time

Humbling fighters , adapting and setting records
This video was lit af you outdid yourself❤🔥
Love the content. Extremely high quality story telling, editing and overall entertainment. 10/10
My hats off to you sir for paying attention to our suggestions. He must be talked about more.
mighty mouse was really jon jones at 125, if only dana liked him and didnt force him out
@@oodlesofnoodles9437who’s fault? It wasn’t Mr. Buggermilo’s fault that DJ got traded for Ben Askren. So who’s fault is it exactly?
DJ is not genetically gifted like jones
@@kelakogreenaddict1888 all of the top guys in ufc are genetically gifted,
@@swankmank not with an 84 inch reach
@@oodlesofnoodles9437Are you talking to DJ or a fan expressing his opinion?
In my view, he is part of the top 3 GOATS of MMA period
Yes! Give him the recognition he deserves!
Mighty mouse is by far the greatest that ever did it man.
So sad he doesn't get the recognition that he deserve
He ain’t the goat lol
@@austinbatton4849you can disagree but he's definitely one of the greatest to ever do it and I'd say THE greatest
Dj is the best fighter I've ever watched compete, bar none. The UFC is based on popularity and shouldn't be taken seriously when talking about "goats". The number of substance abusing "champions" in their roster is enough to know that.
Beautiful video man, you are really talented. Much love. ❤️
FInally DJ is getting this video, ONE OF THE BEST FOR THE REASON
DJ's Suplex armbar is the best submission attempt I've ever seen in my life.
One of the best to ever do it...
UFC HOF
The most title defences. Has the best submission finish and one of the finest knock out finish ever... 🤦♂️🤞👉🐐
Love the storytelling of this series
great to see another amazing video!!
People who don't put him in the goat conversation and don't have him in the top5 i don't even listen to
loving the DJ resurgance recently. many have been late to the party, but better late than never
DJ is a legend in the making besides being the Goat he is a incredible humble person in and out of the octagon...Great video bro I hope he reacts to it
The trade is the best thing to happen to DJ he is much appreciated in one championship and im happy to see the man getting love and respect he always deserved.. DJ definitely in the GOAT conversation.. Personally gsp for me but DJ definitely up there
DJ is the GOAT, and a great ambassador for the sport. And this channel deserves more subs, damn good content!
Was waiting for this one.. best quality mma channel rn.
Dj might mouse actually covered this on his channel. How awesome is that? Way to go TFB!
Amazing production of the video. The greatest fighter we have ever seen.
This channel is amazing!
the greatest thing about dj is he is someone to look up to for all the right reasons
Thank you for the 25 minute video Mighty Mouse deserves from the best YT channel around. This man has absolutely been robbed of so much respect and glory.
YESSS THANK YOU I COMMENTED ABOUT MAKING THIS VIDEO A COUPLE VIDEOS AGO
Bro vid quality 10/10
Proud of u keep it up
It's criminal people actually put khabib over him
Do not get me started man. Khabib is so fucking good but he FUCKING QUIT after 3 title defenses. How can he be the GOAT?
@@mikecash6044I think if Khabib was 125 I believe Dj would beat him
@@gabedadson730if anyone was 125 dj would beat them
@@gabedadson730tf are you even flexing lol
Never lost a match, never bled, never drink
alcohol, never took PEDs, never did trash talk,
putting his neck under choke to make his

breaking arms in front of opponent's parents,

And your asking why people could think he’s the goat???
Catching up on the videos I havnt seen, great stuff
(tickle the algo)
Great video as always I was curious if you would do a quick glance at emmett versus tuporia
In the works am sure topuria and emmett got some great highlights

GOAT VIDEO
He's the one above all
So dope! Couldn't click on this fast enough
This man makes short movies on RUclips, one of the best channels
Been saying it for years, DJ is the legitimate MMA GOAT
Finally A before and after of DJ ❤️
Another goat made video for a goat
Mighty Mouse's problem was that he cleared out the division multiple times, so there were no other big names built in the new division
Man flyweight is one of my favorite divisions. So technical and fast man it’s a blast to watch!
Hey, #thefightingbusines this is an amazing and awesome video.
I have watched many videos over time, covering the greatness of #DemetriousJohnson as well as more recently the "must have forgot" reputation that #MightyMouse received, but despite how well they did in covering the goat of MMA, I believe you outdid them with this video.

THE GOAT
a beautiful way to celebrate a unique fighter...the GOAT
Here after his retirement 🎉🎉🎉🎉boat goat he
Finally the GOAT
Only really passionate and knowledgable MMA fans appreciate him.
Love DJ and he lives and trains in my state
Best to ever do it. Hands down
I never leave DJ out of the goat discussion.
finally! one of the real greatest of all time!!!! not kabib
-Never had a size advantage
-Never had a PED advantage
-Never trashtalked for mind game advantage
All Skill. All class.
DJ REACTED TO YOUR VIDEO!!!!
BRO MIGHTY MOUSE JUST REACTED TO YOUR VIDEO😱😱
Tim Elliotts respect is amazing
A video i thought i’ll never see
undeniably one of goats, there will never be another Mighty Mouse, it is great he is getting the respect that he has earned and definitely deserved a long time ago, but it is unfortunate that it has come at the end of such an amazing career, the ufc should of done a lot more for him, he should of been one of the biggest "stars" always a martial artist first and has always been a highlight for me to watch
A pleasure to watch thid man fight!
I know this is an MMA series but I would LOVE to see a before and after facing RODTANG
Before ufc got wec, I watched a lot of wec fights and the the fights were sometimes better than the ufc and I always thought ufc should add more weight classes. The fly weights were always a personal favorite of mine because these guys had a lot of endurance as well as athleticism.

THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!
gret presentation
Man I always saw might mouse as the best if not one of the best when I first got into watching ufc. Yeh jones is there and Anderson, but in my opinion the highest skill level fighters have always been at the lower weight classes at least including just top contendors cuz ofc there the likes of Anderson Silva jones and gsp. But I don’t know why they ever doubted him sure not much knockouts but the dominance was crazy.
If there's one thing to learn from DJ, it's to believe in yourself. Try to listen to one of his episodes with joe rogan cause it's probably gonna put you to tears
one legit made the greatest deal in history with this trade.
The greatest.
The Fighting Business doesn’t get the recognition it deserves….
Always been a fan! Pound for pound greatest!
You could argue his weight class is less competitive but ever since he switched to one where their lighter weight classes are more competitive it's undeniable that he's just that great
BROOOOOOO DEMETRIOUS REAACTED TO THIS !!!!!
What a great fighter he is the GOAT !!
I'll tell to my kids that this man is John Jones
Dj gets forgotten in the goat argument and it's insane
Top 4 GOATS and is not even close.
GOAT 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐 DJ hands down
This guy is the greatest pound for pound fighter of all time!
DJ has reacted to the video brotha
