We watched a movie about his life in my ASL class. This man is so inspirational! I am not much of a wrestling fan but I just became a fan of the a hammer Hamill!!!
My brother-in-law met him. He's a teacher for the deaf and Matt came out to the school to meet the kids. My bro-in-law says Matt is just a great guy, wonderful with the kids.
Ok no bullshit, I was his neighbor. My grandparents bought the house next to him and I got to meet him and talking to him was amazing. I remember eating out with him one day after he took me and my dad around some of the places nearby and he told us about his life and it was very inspirational. His son was really funny and an amazing little guy. Matt Hamill is a great guy.
Love this badass dude, much respect to you Matt, I mean it man, from the bottom of my heart mate, I respect the shit out of you brother, keep on keeping on, Matt "The Hammer" Hamill!!!
UFC should bring him back, he may not be an exciting striker, but he will test any aspiring fighter, and any vet for that matter. This guy never seems to be an easy win for the best of the LHW's
@@bigsmoke8435 bitch i wasn't talking to the guy who made the comment, someone else commented bashing Jones and he deleted his comment, so you in the wrong house fool
I never heard of Matt Hamill until I watched 'The Hammer'. Honestly, I have a lot of respect for him, he's a great fighter and a great wrestler. Who cares if he doesn't know proper English? At least people could understand him even though he's deaf.(I don't know anything about deaf people). People who say wrestling is gay... Tell that to every UFC or MMA fighters. I bet you that 90% of them did wrestling when they were young. I'm not talking about the fake WWE shit.
homeiswonderland I know that he knows English well but sometimes, he couldn't pronounce some of the words right or sometimes he talks kinda awkward like he couldn't talk clearly. I don't blame him though. At least I could understand what he's saying or trying to say.
Haron Winn what are you trying to say? I know he's deaf but I'm saying, I don't know why people are against him for his english, at least we could understand him. That's all it matters. What I say has nothing against Matt Hamill
GO HAMMER!!!! My dad bought a movie of The Hammer and I watched it today. It is so amazing! I'm also profoundly deaf. Matt and I have lot of common senses, because I was the only deaf in a small town in my whole life and I have been struggle. I NEVER give up to achieving my goal for my Bachelor of Science degree in the future. I love being mommy that I have a very handsome little boy is 3 1/2 years old. Keep up and Go Hammer!!! Support to him!
@maxi6116 There is no math involved. He trains in water once a week, he'd have to live at high altitude for training. 24 hours a day for the whole of his camp. Think before you comment please.
i love both these fighters, i think that rampage will win and get a title shot against jones. however i'd loved it to be fight of the night and for hammill to give it his all and earn the respect of all the fans. i would also love hammill to win.
He went to our school as a motivator and also to teach us a couple of wrestling technics. Matt told us how he got into an octagon against this elite mma fighter and blocked some ruthless elbows with his forehead. He persevered and won the match when all odds were against him.
You're probably talking about his "win" against Jon Jones. He didnt "persevere and win the match" He got hit with some illegal elbows that made him not able to continue the match. Therefore he won by disqualification.
@maxi6116 Money isn't a problem for UFC fighters, lol. Underwater training is as intense as one makes it and a person can only go so far with it (i.e, when they have to breathe, they have to stop) whereas high altitude forces a change in the body.
Matt Hamil good fighter much respect however his coach me me me oh and me again my expertise I'm like a NFL coach I know what it takes to be an elite fighter... What's your name bro ?
Jon Jones thought being deaf wasn't enough, went for the eyes, if the ref gave him another 5 minutes he would have had a scalpel out going for his voice box to turn him into Helen Keller.
It's fuckin incredible how much this guy has accomplished... being deaf and still strong... maybe i shud learn a thing or two from this guy; have a speech impediment and that literally controls my life... doesn't even compare to how much he has to put up with,
Great video, I am really excited about this fight! But why is the coach talking to Hamill at 1:37, I thought he is death.. Also, ".. more red blood cells, more oxygen gets carried back to your lungs" cmon.. -.-
@PanicBlackEye all im saying is i had never seen any fighter train with it before the videos of fedor came out doing it in his schoolyard training videos
@fathom26 yup, I totally agree, the more red blood cells, the more oxygen carried around the body, I just dont agree on the "back to the lungs" bit. Blood that comes back to the lungs will contain very little to none oxygen and gain oxygen again as it is pumped through the lungs. Anyways, this is my first time arguing about some unnecessary stuff on youtube so dont worry, different people differrent opinions. Also didnt know, he can read lips, thats cool stuff! Cant wait to see the fight :)
@aabbcc5631 hes deaf, but he leanred to talk somehow and can understand others buy lip reading, they use sub titles because it makes it clear, although hes pretty articulate anyway
what a great man/great fighter. So much respect for this guy.
He is also a great coach
Legend of the sport. I don't care what anyone says
Truly a great guy
We watched a movie about his life in my ASL class. This man is so inspirational! I am not much of a wrestling fan but I just became a fan of the a hammer Hamill!!!
Also kinda an asshole really liked to fuck wit people in tuf
What’s the movie?
@@camerokid78 it is titled "The Hammer"
@@tomimitchell4023 yup same movie for me
My brother-in-law met him. He's a teacher for the deaf and Matt came out to the school to meet the kids. My bro-in-law says Matt is just a great guy, wonderful with the kids.
Today I met him and it was great. I didn't clearly understood him but he was an amazing motivational speaker.
Lol
Imagine thinking ur funny
Lol

Bullshit
The best fighter. Only man who defeated Jon Jones.
Jim Bob Hahah he did not.. Jon Jones hit him so hard he got DQ!
Mats Persson He got disqualified because of illegal elbows not cuz he hit too hard.
Sunny Dhanoa its irony you know bro. really obvious one and also an established meme/gag.
Nah John jones did cheat
Jim Bob Only man who DEAFeated Jon Jones
It’s okay, I’m deaf as well and I saw a pun opportunity.
Love this badass dude, much respect to you Matt, I mean it man, from the bottom of my heart mate, I respect the shit out of you brother, keep on keeping on, Matt "The Hammer" Hamill!!!
Only guy to beat Jones😂
Anyone else shocked that closed captioning isn't available for this video?
I hear you
Mat hammil came to my scholl today
he came to mine today
Did he hear you
@@therealyws6649 lol hed kill you in 6 seconds boi so stfu
UFC should bring him back, he may not be an exciting striker, but he will test any aspiring fighter, and any vet for that matter. This guy never seems to be an easy win for the best of the LHW's
His uncle said "Listen" to his nephew, a deaf man.
He means listen as in pay attention
This is so inspiring, i want this dude to get what he deserves and win!!
one of my favorite fighter personalities
great guy, great fighter, gets gassed fast as hell but still very explosive and fun
he is a legend already. Only fighter to ever beat Jon Jones :P
Ioannis Because Steve was the fucking ref and asked Matt if he want to continue when he was DEAF
Lmao he never beat JonJones, dumbass, Jones beat him, but in an illegal way. Matt didnt win that fight
SAUCe Wasabi that’s the joke u dumbass

He knows English. He's just got an accent, really.

Freshy Man you do realize hes deaf right?

My heart sank to my balls when Jon Jones gave him those elbows to his face.
mindful it’s part of the business

And did you get it?
Man-crushing over here. Much respect for this guy. 💪🏼👊🏼🙌🏼
Why isn't there any closed captioning in this video???
i know right?
I love Matt Hamill, he's a total badass. I love how he can take a man down like a bull 🐂.
Yo, where's the English subtitles?!
Matt Hamill is truly one of my heroes.
Lot of respect for this guy, I hope he wins this Saturday.
Only man to ever defeat Jon Jones. Matt "The True GOAT" Hamill
Thanks to him, Aljamain Sterling became the UFC BW GOAT.
@maxi6116 There is no math involved. He trains in water once a week, he'd have to live at high altitude for training. 24 hours a day for the whole of his camp. Think before you comment please.
There are a lot of great trash talkers in the UFC...but Hamill is the GOAT of trash listeners.
your my inspiration matt i have alot of respect for you!! i hope to meet you one day
hi sorry im new in ufc could someone tell me whats going on with his woice?
hope he wins
I like his Rocky IV training methods.
i like this guy,his motivated & dedicated
i love both these fighters, i think that rampage will win and get a title shot against jones. however i'd loved it to be fight of the night and for hammill to give it his all and earn the respect of all the fans.
i would also love hammill to win.

What a legend he is. Defeated the goat
@@highcookiessno shit!!
"Hear what made Hamil so strong..."
UFC couldn't have picked a better description.
His grandfather said "listen", very poor choice of words
thanks ufc
UFC you don't need to subtitle Hamill, we understand him just fine.
Save those subtitles for Nick Diaz lol
@ZwiebelkuchnEU.....idk how the pool builds the RBC's but RBC do carry oxygen
Matt hamil came to my school, got soccer kicked, and then raised his hand in victory
Hmm I'm not sure about the training in water, it'd probably be more efficient to train at a higher altitude if I'm honest.
@maxi6116 Money isn't a problem for UFC fighters, lol. Underwater training is as intense as one makes it and a person can only go so far with it (i.e, when they have to breathe, they have to stop) whereas high altitude forces a change in the body.
Matt Hamil good fighter much respect however his coach me me me oh and me again my expertise I'm like a NFL coach I know what it takes to be an elite fighter... What's your name bro ?
I saw a movie about him it was really good .
which first theme music of this video? anybody know?
@narutonumber500 i dont think you've watched The Ultimate Fighter, where Rampage kills the door...
suprisingly, for someone who's been deaf since birth, he can speak really well. who needs subtitles.
I hope he does well this fight
Matt Hamill is a fricken' Icon.
that pool shit is brutal!, much respect
@LVJ112 Nash has a lot more hair ,but I see the similar kind of look
can't believe i twittered hatt hammil all those songs
The stone age of mma training
@kickycrowbar how?
@1pulse one of the rare decent comments made in any mma video
0.26 Silence of the lambs??
Never knew he was deaf. Dope
@OsoInfinite95 I know ye, I understood him perfectly don't see why they've got subtitles.
His game plan against Jones was so effective, using his nose to attack Jones's elbow
Jon Jones thought being deaf wasn't enough, went for the eyes, if the ref gave him another 5 minutes he would have had a scalpel out going for his voice box to turn him into Helen Keller.
Hamill's pool training > Rampage's pool training. Fortunately the fight it in a cage on land and not underwater so its not much to go by.
i got the most respect for this man
@wickedcusi Matt said while he was on TUF 3 that his family taught him how to speak when he was a kid.
@fatlad1231 and in the description it says "Hear" what made Matt Hamill so strong.They tryin to be funny?
You would think that the WHOLE video would be captioned since a lot of his fans are deaf!!!!! Wtf?!?!?!
It's fuckin incredible how much this guy has accomplished... being deaf and still strong... maybe i shud learn a thing or two from this guy; have a speech impediment and that literally controls my life... doesn't even compare to how much he has to put up with,
Great video, I am really excited about this fight! But why is the coach talking to Hamill at 1:37, I thought he is death.. Also, ".. more red blood cells, more oxygen gets carried back to your lungs" cmon.. -.-
@steve24653 nearly everyone uses the tyre with the hammer
he is tj dillashaw who tried to fight ngannou
the awkward moment when matt hamill gets interviewed and yells to the crowd .... I CANT HEAR YOU ?!!!
i really like Rampage but Matt Hamill is just a warrior in life so i hope he gets the so wanted submission
he sounds like adam sandle in the water boy. Good luck tomorrow matt
Imagine fighters trying to get inside his head by trash takling xD
I actually met Matt when I was like 7
i respect this guy
matt hammil is my friend rhylee hammils cousin
The GOAT
Dude made Jon Jones tap by head butting his elbow.
Matt Hamill is a G!
what a great story
@D3NN15FR0GM4N you know this how exactly.. ?
Don't underestimate Hamill.
kinda rooting for Rampage, but if Hamill pwns him, i wouldn't even be mad.... Hamill is just that guy that you naturally want to win
The only guy to beat Jon Jones
What a fucking legend the only man who's defeated the goat jon bones jones
Casuals would have no fucking clue who this legend is. Makes me sad.
@PanicBlackEye
all im saying is i had never seen any fighter train with it before the videos of fedor came out doing it in his schoolyard training videos
He was my Trainer (Mat)
You have to respect Hamill.
@dannyboytoon High altitude has oxygen, just very little, underwater you get none. you do the math.
@joeisgonnakillu nice reference, it was my favorite of the series.........
The Hammer!!!!!
Now he's retired. :(
The GOAT
The only guy to beat Jones
@fathom26 yup, I totally agree, the more red blood cells, the more oxygen carried around the body, I just dont agree on the "back to the lungs" bit. Blood that comes back to the lungs will contain very little to none oxygen and gain oxygen again as it is pumped through the lungs. Anyways, this is my first time arguing about some unnecessary stuff on youtube so dont worry, different people differrent opinions.
Also didnt know, he can read lips, thats cool stuff! Cant wait to see the fight :)
he is awesome
Must be great for when he fights under water
i really have alot of respect for matt, but i gotta go wih rampage on this one
@aabbcc5631 hes deaf, but he leanred to talk somehow and can understand others buy lip reading, they use sub titles because it makes it clear, although hes pretty articulate anyway
He cant even make his own sandwiches. Dont say he doesnt put his deafness in front of him.
@gompynl I'm not sure why really I just never took to him when he was on on TUF and he just pisses me off for some reason.
Strange I know
Deafness has nothing to do with how good you are as a fighter, if anything its' a plus people have to stop fucking pitying him
Matt Hamill's gameplay is to lay on rampage for 15 mins like evans did
i really like him :D
