Really appreciate the effort Jiri puts into speaking English when it clearly doesn't come naturally to him, so many fighters just depend on a translator but it's so important in connecting with an international audience.
Important for who? Paulo costa and plenty of other fighters learned English and still get paid dogshit money. There’s absolutely no huge reason for them to learn English
Jiri is a top class act, people may make fun of the samurai aspect (which is total bs, he is living the warriors life according to a samurai, he is a LEGIT samurai) but giving up the belt really told you everything you ever needed to know about him. I pray he continues to gift us his presence in the octagon, we do not deserve it. But we need it.
Sayif has to be one of the best, if not the best, MMA strategist/analyst in the game. Also, such a great communicator! This man's a gem in the sport. Can't believe he's not getting more exposure, or has only recently started to get more attention by MMA media.
34:14 idc what anyone has to say the performance that Jamahal had and the skills he showed and proved he has was amazing i teared up. the dude is for real.
I'd be honoured to follow Sayif Saud. What a great leader, he knows completely who he is - which allows him to help others find out who they really are. Look forward to following Brandon's fights.
I was hyped for the brazil card soley because i thought we were going to have a london/paris/dublin type atmosphere. Not even close. Safe to say they aint on par not even close. And another thing,if leon looses to usman in london , we aint leaving our guy in an empty stadium.
the anothony smith hype from ariel is beyond annoying. anthony smith is the equivalent of derek carr or kirk cousins, we dont hear mvp talk about them, we definitely dont need to hear title talk about anthony smith
Chandler vs McGregor is the fight. I think Chandler would say screw wrestling and want to strike with him. It’s the perfect fight for Conor’s come back.
Ariel is so blinded by his love for izzy omg he is on heavy amounts of copium saying izzy was an early stoppage. guy cant give 2 seconds of love to alex
Just to bring in some context , imo the main reason that the crowd was so numb was the whole tv deal change in brazil . Here Globo is just so much bigger than other channels and now that the ufc left globo for the UFC fight pass format Globo simply did not promote the event , so most of brazil mma audience didnt even know the event was happening in Rio . The audience in Rio was mainly rich ufc hardcore fans. PS: comparing those events to UFC paris is just not fair , Brazil is continental country so is not that easy to travel to rio just to watch the ufc.
I was actually rooting for the Bills, Ariel's gotta be more humble about his team, he's always trying to talk trash and brag and then they end up not coming through smh
i really enjoy NY Ric @ 52:30 for disagreeing with Ariel. I love that this dynamic is in the show bc i love ariel too and his opinions but this is great
I’m a little confused, Glover dominated Jiri for most of their fight, and Jamal dominated Glover for most of their fight. So how does that make Jiri the better fighter?
Glover was better vs jiri. That fight clearly has deteriorated Glover's overall abilities plus his age. However jiri vs Jamal wud be a sweet dream. Whoever wins will hold the division for abit.
I dunno man LHW is always such a mess. Never a solid champion other than jones. It used to be the best division in the early 2010s when we had fighters like Rashad, Griffin, Rampage, but it’s been dull for a while now
Rockhold makes a tremendous point ..Dana is like the lion tamer who keeps the animals in cages and under fed and deals with them so the suits can run the big top tent and count all the money ..with Dana gone The circus will have to start feeding the lions ..and those lions are really hungry and they have been starving for a long time
Ariel, embrace your Canadian side, don't you like hockey? You love the Bills, why not follow the Sabres too?? Also I'd love to see some content about fighting in hockey, it would be fun to have guys like Ryan Reeves and Paul Bissonette on to talk about the different techniques and explain why it's necessary in the sport. Also those guys wanna box each other. Anyway keep up the good work!
Glover was unbelievably slow and his takedown attempts were so obvious!!! He looked old AF! Glad he retired. But Jamal is a paper champ. Ankelov is going to destroy him within 2 rounds!!!
Fury just called out Ngannou! This will make waves, its a super fight if it happens. Ngannou needs to be smart and slant the rules to his favor, you read me Francis? ;) It's not about glory, they've both had a taste, it's about the $$$. I say whichever rules best sell the fight, go with it!
Hill had a far more impressive performance v Glover than Jiri. And if we’re all in agreement that Glover is 3rd, that makes a really, REALL compelling fight.
You can’t just say it’s the nature of this business, then you should just shut the showdown because every single little topic that comes up you can just say the same thing
Rockhold actually did something and actually has some understanding and intelligence. Kaepenernik was merely a crybaby who had the wrong end of the stick from day one.

I 1000% agree
Jamahal vs Jiri would be a fantastic fight
And after that dismantling of Hill the Perrira fight will be a fight all combat sports fan will love can’t wait to see it

Yea you did
Right on
I thought Glover was going to win until Jamahal walked out to Phil Collins - "In the Air Tonight"... there was no stopping that man.
Hill vs Jiri is a banger 🔥 excited for that one

Rockold has become one of my favorite “unintentionally funny” ppl in MMA 😂 some fighters are so boring with their interviews but not Luke!
Max respect to The mma hour team!
Delighted for Jamal Hill UFC Champion wowwww
The portion where Frank talks about bawls has me ded 😂☠️
I love Jiri, so entertaining to listen to, as well as watch fight. The UFC is so much better with him on the roster.
Jiri trying so hard to not tell Ariel that he loves Whitney Houston. *montage of intense Jiri training while "I wanna dance with somebody" plays*
Excited for rockhold!!! Him vs mousasi is a banger!
Rockhold will be slaughtered…..he’s done
2:41 Bills
9:20 Parlay Pals
1:27:44 coaches
The BEST MMA SHOW BABY!!!
Stop having Luke Rockhold on. It’s tough to watch. But the rest is amazing. Thank you.
Of course I’ve came for none other than Luke Skyler Rockhold!!!
Love seeing coach JK! Guy is great man!
New York Rick, why do you have a stuffed horse taped on your wall? Lol.
Just listen to jiri and he is just a terrifying man
Frank playing Bachata on the show was my highlight. Respect
Them trying to figure out what kind of music that was, is funny
Congrats to Jamal Hill on becoming the new UFC light heavyweight champion of the world
I watched your podcasts all day today
bruv i would be deadass scared to live in the same house with jiri

The music is "bachata", it's awesome.
Great show guys!
There seems to be twice the amount of ads on this episode. Or is it just me?
the anothony smith hype from ariel is beyond annoying. anthony smith is the equivalent of derek carr or kirk cousins, we dont hear mvp talk about them, we definitely dont need to hear title talk about anthony smith

Ariel swears like a pirate in this MMA hour, im backing it.
Sounds trashy
I'm not feeling it. Great sportscaster don't do that and i could never imagine Howard Cosell, Ariels hero, ever cursing on air or even in person
Great show
Awesome, Jiri is doing his interview without an interpreter.
Jiri saying Jamahal doesnt have punching power like Johnny Walker, whom hes knocked out already, is downright hilarious.
I love how Ariel keeps talking about how the Bengals have never won a super bowl while repping the Bills...
Ariel is so blinded by his love for izzy omg he is on heavy amounts of copium saying izzy was an early stoppage. guy cant give 2 seconds of love to alex
The bachata music during the ad read. I can die a happy man
Didn't know Kavanagh was working with Walker, i think he will take him to a Championship.
Kind of ironic him having the Whiskey name :)
He will feint his way there
Are we just forgetting that ankalaev beat jan and has been #1 contender for a while

"Go for the Easy W" wanted to see yall win All Year!! Sorry but that's on you DC 🤷🏾
Ariel still being super bias with the izzy fight I see lol. Just because they are friends.💀
Top Interview
New York Rick's take this episode really won me over. Seriously, you got a new fan, man.
Which one
I hit a 6 leg parlay Saturday! Violence bets didn't disappoint baby
Jiri is just great, all around.
I’m a little confused, Glover dominated Jiri for most of their fight, and Jamal dominated Glover for most of their fight. So how does that make Jiri the better fighter?

On the Shogun fight, someone has to win and someone has to lose, you’re acting like we should just script the retirement fights.
Rockhold makes a tremendous point ..Dana is like the lion tamer who keeps the animals in cages and under fed and deals with them so the suits can run the big top tent and count all the money ..with Dana gone The circus will have to start feeding the lions ..and those lions are really hungry and they have been starving for a long time
Don’t credit Hill for Glover retiring. If he had lost to ankelov or Jiri he was still going to retire. Or Jan for that matter. Anyone.
He said Bengals didn’t show class. Meanwhile Diggs ran out of the locker room before the coaches even got in after the game. Big babies
THERE IS ONLY ONE KING
👁️👃👁️ KING HELWANI 👑
Listening to Jiri puts you to sleep
Loved the bawls banter 😂
Hey Ariel, Hit this joint... Izzy VS MVP
Luke: I'm putting people out, look who I've fought recently. - looks at the record...
Ariel, embrace your Canadian side, don't you like hockey? You love the Bills, why not follow the Sabres too?? Also I'd love to see some content about fighting in hockey, it would be fun to have guys like Ryan Reeves and Paul Bissonette on to talk about the different techniques and explain why it's necessary in the sport.

i need Hill on the podcast
Shogun vs Reyes would have been good
DAE think Pereira for the 205 belt to avenge Glover? I think he smashes Hill, plus he already beat Izzy 3x 🔥🔥🔥
Ahh okay they got to this, was gonna say it’s so perfect
…205 Strickland vs jiri…. Let’s see it!!!! Haha, Thoughts?
There's no way that Rockhold isn't on the spectrum.
Figgy taking the gloves off to retire from a division was very WCW Chris Jericho Heel like 😅
Let’s go Ariel and team !
Frank with the bachata 🫡
We need to extract the DNA of jiri and make it available for future populations to benefit from
Consider the tensions in Brazil, and you’ll understand
I went 8-3 on my unofficial picks , it's a shame I didn't throw a parley together or some single bets
I hit a five fight parlay on this card and it felt good! Didn’t bet much so I didn’t win much but it’s always a nice personal victory
@@jarnold1789 a win is a win. I gave my brother a 5 leg that also hit but I didn't bet on it. I felt so stupid for not placing the slip.
The return of kavanagh!! Even Danis' lies couldn't keep them apart!
Not to do MMA math but Jamal made Glover look alot easier than Jiri did.
Call me a hater but im happy the Bills lost so we dont have to hear 10+ minutes of bills talk
Does anyone know where to place the wwe bets at?
How can you bet on it when it's completely scripted? Genuinely curious
Nice 1
Glover was unbelievably slow and his takedown attempts were so obvious!!! He looked old AF! Glad he retired. But Jamal is a paper champ.
Ankelov is going to destroy him within 2 rounds!!!
Rockhold has to be the most deluded person in all of fighting
And I’m here for it! 😂😂😂. Guy is hilarious
He drinks
Fury just called out Ngannou! This will make waves, its a super fight if it happens. Ngannou needs to be smart and slant the rules to his favor, you read me Francis? ;)
It's not about glory, they've both had a taste, it's about the $$$. I say whichever rules best sell the fight, go with it!
If I wanted to hear someone talk about Foolsball, I'd go to The Pat McAfee show....
Very gracious of Luke Rockhold to come out of retirement to let us see him get knocked out since Paulo couldn’t do it
When you can no longer win, they should stop the fight... Glover could have still won in the 5th, Lauren was done
Hill had a far more impressive performance v Glover than Jiri. And if we’re all in agreement that Glover is 3rd, that makes a really, REALL compelling fight.
Ariel laughing and squeaking like Bert Kreischer... ;))
Ariel salty about the Bengals 😂
You think they know they’re saying ‘fogo de chao’ wrong?!?
I love the back and forth. You guys should just shoot the show on the steps of a brownstone in Brooklyn 😅
Looks like he's sharing a cell with Andrew Tate . Crazy how humble he stays he's kind of like clubber lang in another universe
Could you section off the football talk so I can just skip it and not want to kill myself?
Thanks
Go bengals!!! Ohio born and raised !!!!!
You can’t just say it’s the nature of this business, then you should just shut the showdown because every single little topic that comes up you can just say the same thing
Man I love this show
Rockhold is the Kaepernick of UFC
Rockhold actually did something and actually has some understanding and intelligence. Kaepenernik was merely a crybaby who had the wrong end of the stick from day one.
Ariel I just heard go Chiefs 😂. Shoot me a PO box so I can gift you a 🐐 Mahomes Jersey
everyone wants Shavkat vs Chimaev yet the UFC is blind
Impressive W against Sir Siko Striko Az. He will be on his best behaviour & more attentative next time. 10 8 🙂
