Dude Dustin the entire time is giving his flowers towards max, literally avoided to say anything negative about his fighting style, Dustin’s such a good individual.
UFC please put Dustin on the commentary team or give him a permanent position as an analyst. He is well spoken and has some of the best knowledge of the fight game. 💎
I totally agree, this is guy that I want to hear give his opinions on mma, and he’s your favorite fighters favorite fighter, so you can have any fighter on that show and they’ll be more likely to open up to him out of respect and because he’s not a suit he’s a fighter.
I would love that too, but I doubt they will do this. They basically posted a full fight on here. The UFC posts full fights on their channel regularly, but deletes them a while after. So I'm unsure if they would do something similar.
@@420__Momentum-s4pAnd Leon is a better Boxer because he’s bigger 😂😂 no bro, it’s clear that the issues in this fight for Max are physical. Weight that hindered his speed when that’s his biggest advantage
ilia is a better boxer than dustin man, dustin has better timing but ilia is way better defensively, but i don't know what will happen in this fight, both are great fighter and i can see both win lol
LMFAO dean.. " eating coconuts " lmao deans hilarious. Seeing Dustin as an analyst/ commentator is awesome. I hope he continues to do this once he retires.
Dustin has always been one of my favorites. An OG of the fight game, that’s fought for generations almost. From wec to today, he’s always been able to pick himself up from defeat
Dustin is a diamond and the pressure only makes him harder, more brilliant, more beautiful and more fabulous. He will forever be a champion in our hearts.❤️💎❤️💎
This is a great format. I was at this fight and the atmosphere was absolute electric. Especially coming off the Adesanya/Gastelum match. The crowd alternated from chanting Holloway to Poirier back and forth throughout the entire fight.
I’m from Louisiana and watched it at a bar. lol Obviously the entire place was going crazy. I was happy for DP but kinda felt bad for Max. Imo Max F’d up by taking the short notice fight. You can tell by his stomach that Max didn’t properly move up in weight. lol He was basically a 145’er here fighting an extra motivated 155’er DP.
this is an incredible idea btw. would love to see more guys break down classics that they have taken part in. think everyone would love a Lawler one next
Dustin was whooping the majority of the whole fight and was only bringing up when Holloway was landing 😭 never got the sore winner shtick he’s such a good dude lol 😂
This was such a fun and epic fight. Dustin should be called chanpion worthy for ending Max' 13 fight winning streak by becoming the interim champ, which could easily have been worthy for the main belt. Always wanted two champions in all divisions for some reason because of injuries and inactivity.
It’s crazy that I can hear little Rush’s voice go “ LETS GO!” “GET HIM DAD!” “DAD COME ON!” “DAD NOO” and “HOLLOWAY!” This fight was wild, Poirier is absolute monster and Max is a Dawg. Because of Max’s resume and whose he’s fought it’s hard not to go for him. We’ve seen him take on the likes of Aldo, Poirier, McGregor, Gaethje, Stephen, Volkanovski, Swanson, Kattar, Allen, Yair, etc. all of which have given him looks from being pressure forward heavy handers, kickers, grapplers, boxers, etc. we’ve seen Max defend so many takedowns, eat the biggest of punches. It’s just difficult for me to say Ilia because Ilia’s only fought 7 times, and 4 of which he was tagged and even dropped in 1. The fact that he struggles on the back foot and let someone like Bryce Mitchell of all people lay hands on him let’s me believe that Max’s speed, lateral movement, and overall arsenal will give ilia a lot of trouble. Max all the way everyday!
great video but I do wish Din had watched the fight prior to filming and asked more questions specific to the fight. So many great moments and aspects of this fight to discuss with Dustin were left out
Dustin porier! My favorite fighter! Pretty sure there’s a RUclips video of max in this fight speaking to his corner about how funky Dustin’s defense is-love the blocking!
funny how they both to mis a very imporant moment on 2:02 how he faints the left straight to set up the right wich he executes perfect on 2:13. amazing how this game works. so much strategy involved
Max definitely didn’t approach this fight right. He was right when he said he put on the correct type of weight for the Justin fight. Wish he did the same for this fight.
@@Jade-dd1vo you can view it as an excuse but any person with vision can see that he did not fill up well to compete against Dustin at 155 during that fight. View it as you please 🤷🏻♂️
If u invite him on to watch the fight. Let him watch the fight and answer questions while he's watching. Sit closer together. You made him miss the best strike of the night with the most damage. Good job Dustin.
I’m sorry but if you beat Max for a belt with the title on the line, I don’t care if interims infront of champion, he beat an active champion to get his belt that’s gotta count more then fighting another contender
Max didn't look the same vs Dustin! He looked really slow, his footwork looked slow, his punches looked slower! He ain't have the explosiveness like usual
Dude Dustin the entire time is giving his flowers towards max, literally avoided to say anything negative about his fighting style, Dustin’s such a good individual.
Hes come a long way and to still be able to articulate his thoughts humbly says alot about this warrior.
To be real fight wasnt close at all like people say. Poirer had him stunned every rd
He's a Great Person and he's a Great Fighter Aswell
I met him in real life, nice guy and great fighter.
He DID say negative things about his fighting style though... you weren't paying attention...
UFC please put Dustin on the commentary team or give him a permanent position as an analyst. He is well spoken and has some of the best knowledge of the fight game. 💎
I agree 💯. Dustin has a good reputation...he could join administration too
@@oladokunsamuel5923he did say he potentially would be down but it’s also a lot of work
We would love it, but it’s his decision
I totally agree, this is guy that I want to hear give his opinions on mma, and he’s your favorite fighters favorite fighter, so you can have any fighter on that show and they’ll be more likely to open up to him out of respect and because he’s not a suit he’s a fighter.
agree we need more of the diamond
Dustin NEEDS his own podcast man. I can listen to this dude talk for hours!
Poirier would make a sick analyst or commentator.
Is this a new thing? We love this, please do more of these Din Thomas. Dustin is loving this work on Max lol
There's a really good one with Volk after the first Islam fight
This is a great format. More of this please. I hope Dustin does not retire. The UFC is so much better with him fighting.
Yes I agree, I hated him once apon a time but he's won me over
I would love that too, but I doubt they will do this. They basically posted a full fight on here. The UFC posts full fights on their channel regularly, but deletes them a while after. So I'm unsure if they would do something similar.
Tell him to stop ducking Colby at WW then
U want him to fight till 100 years old ?
@@RijoBomjen-cs7kt yes. Thank you for interpreting my comment successfully.
Look at the physique of Max here compared to when he fought Justin, Max was chubby in this fight where against Justin he looked like normal max
against Justin he looked huge !
@@mrmeme2917 you can tell he put on the weight the right way instead of just making weight
Dude a Fight is a Fight Period. Max even had a Full training camp leading up too this Fight. Dustin is a better boxer
@@420__Momentum-s4pAnd Leon is a better Boxer because he’s bigger 😂😂 no bro, it’s clear that the issues in this fight for Max are physical. Weight that hindered his speed when that’s his biggest advantage
@@420__Momentum-s4p Also that is completely false. This fight was a 6 weeks short notice fight for Max and Dustin was mistaken
Let's not forget it was DP who pointed down 👇at the start of the last round and called max out of his chair!
And Max said yes without hesitation. Two legends of the sport
Max is scared of ilia@@94robirob
Dustin is such a good dude.
*Styles makes fights, Max Holloways worst matchup is the diamond itself*
You can’t be serious lmao Holloway prefers strikers. He worst match ups are nut hugging wrestlers
Poirier is very good at changing his timing many fighters have talked how his striking timing is weird
ilia is a better boxer than dustin man, dustin has better timing but ilia is way better defensively, but i don't know what will happen in this fight, both are great fighter and i can see both win lol
@@dammaguy1286 lmaooo you wish
Volk is his worst matchup
Oh yeah we definitely need more fighters reacting to/breaking down fights before every big card
LMFAO dean.. " eating coconuts " lmao deans hilarious. Seeing Dustin as an analyst/ commentator is awesome. I hope he continues to do this once he retires.
Please do more of these
Dope segment. And if Porier keeps getting less anxious on the desk/panel he's going to be a great addition 👏 👏
Yep ! So good to see Dustin 💎
Love the format of a fighters breakdown of a past fight with the main event fighter. Exceptional
Dustin has always been one of my favorites. An OG of the fight game, that’s fought for generations almost. From wec to today, he’s always been able to pick himself up from defeat
Max needs to fight @ 155 at this point 👉☝️
Dustin is a diamond and the pressure only makes him harder, more brilliant, more beautiful and more fabulous. He will forever be a champion in our hearts.❤️💎❤️💎

People saying Max never been dropped never seen this fight live. 10:42 Max gets dropped and that’s legit.
Poirier Holloway Gaethje all uncrowned kings rn
this is an incredible idea btw. would love to see more guys break down classics that they have taken part in. think everyone would love a Lawler one next
Dustin was whooping the majority of the whole fight and was only bringing up when Holloway was landing 😭 never got the sore winner shtick he’s such a good dude lol 😂
Max Holloway raining elbows to Dustin’s head
Din Thomas: so how did that feel to your head🤔
everyone praising Dustin, but Din asking really good questions start to finish... props to him!
Give Dustin a job as an analyst a fight break down from his own fights is must see tv
LOVE THIS!!! Please do more of these "breakdowns/rewatch alongs."
Topuria vs Dustin gonna be Banger 🔥🔥
"I KNOW YOURE WONDERING HOW I GOT HERE" killed me hahah porier cool af
Max is a legend regardless win or lose his resume speaks for itself fought nothing but the best tomorrow he'll win again
Dustin definitely has a career in commentating after his fighting is over
I love the respect Dustin and Max have for each other
Porier vs Touporia will be a great striking game.
Love this format guys! Hope you will make more of this. Dustin such a cool guy, what a career, love the fights he gives us, all heart
Superb content. More of these please.
I can watch Dustin talk fighting all day!
19:12 Was Poirier v Chandler not a 3 rounder?? That wasn't long ago.
I'm gonna need you to do more of these. No excuses, I expect them regularly. You're welcome.
This was great! Please do more!
Dustin is one of the best ever only lost to the best of the best, the best fighter to never win a belt
Max has ten five round fight in ufc before 308
Din’s tripping, Max poked Gaethje the two times he tried to set up elbows and then promptly stopped trying to elbow him. He cracked Kattar with elbows
Give Dustin a seat at commentary dudes goated
Dustin killing this too dope hope he starts commentating
Dustin is the Goat 🐐 💎
this was a fantastic video, seeing din and the dustin react to one of my favorite fights :)
Dustin would be a great great commentator and analyst’s
LOVE THIS. We need more of these from Din with fighters 🤞🏾
I hope this becomes a thing , fighters breaking down their fights is a must watch
Max's chin getting some attention is great always thought it's underrated. Dude takes carrier ending shots on the button and barely looks shook.
This is really cool to watch. I hope UFC does more of this. Its cool to see him relive this.
Dustin has the kind of personality and character that you can look up to, solid dude
Both dudes are legends! Good stuff.
Love watching high level fighter being excited while watching fights 💪🏼
Please do this with all the greats you can!
Very underrated fight. Dustin became undisputed in my eyes that night
Diamonds are Forever
This was such a fun and epic fight. Dustin should be called chanpion worthy for ending Max' 13 fight winning streak by becoming the interim champ, which could easily have been worthy for the main belt. Always wanted two champions in all divisions for some reason because of injuries and inactivity.
2 monsters bro ....kudos for those gents
Dustin NOT being credited that Knockdown on Max was CRIMINAL. Max completely fell into that cage . Smfh
Watching this reminds me how much of a legend Dustin is.
Love to see Dustin fight the max that fought Gaethje
Loved this format, do it more often!!
25:44 Poirier says he split his bicep in training for this fight
More of these would be quality, enjoyed watching this
more of these types of breakdowns please
I have so much respect for Dustin he’s a legend and loved by all ❤️
I'm going with Ilia. I don't know if it will be by decision or finish but he will win.
It’s crazy that I can hear little Rush’s voice go “ LETS GO!” “GET HIM DAD!” “DAD COME ON!” “DAD NOO” and “HOLLOWAY!” This fight was wild, Poirier is absolute monster and Max is a Dawg.

Poirier is great at this, need to see more of him on the desk.
please please please we need more of these breakdowns with the actual fighters who fought. amazing to watch and learn
DUSTIN FOR COMMENTARY TEAM!
If y’all use this vs ilia just remember this was short notice
Max had 6 weeks notice before his second fight with Dustin. People throw around “Short notice” too often. Y’all acting like it was a week’s notice
@@desktopmma3178bro had 6 weeks to move to another division. that’s barely 2 months to bulk bro🤦♂️
@@slimxaftonit was short notice for Dustin too
@@kI-cq5xqnot to bulk up tho
@@slimxafton Max walks around 190
More of this format, please. DVD director's commentary on classics.
Please please more videos like that in future i just love it. 🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍
great video but I do wish Din had watched the fight prior to filming and asked more questions specific to the fight. So many great moments and aspects of this fight to discuss with Dustin were left out
Love these breakdowns so much
Dustin landed some really big punches in that fight. Made me think of Gaethje vs Ferguson
This was awesome. Props to Dustin for breaking down the fight.
This is fire!!! ESPN KEEP THESE ROLLIN!!!!!🎥🎥🎬🎬🍿🍿
Dustin porier! My favorite fighter! Pretty sure there’s a RUclips video of max in this fight speaking to his corner about how funky Dustin’s defense is-love the blocking!
Max gave Dustin a hard time in short notice, just image if it was full camp!
we need more of Dustin please !
Dustin vs ilia make sense for new era and respect 💯 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Dustin for walking us through
funny how they both to mis a very imporant moment on 2:02 how he faints the left straight to set up the right wich he executes perfect on 2:13. amazing how this game works. so much strategy involved
Id take poirier over felder cruz or bisping as an actual commentator anyday lol hope he does it when he retires
Max definitely didn’t approach this fight right. He was right when he said he put on the correct type of weight for the Justin fight. Wish he did the same for this fight.
Excuses. Dustin is just better. Outboxed and crack Max each time.
@@Jade-dd1vo you can view it as an excuse but any person with vision can see that he did not fill up well to compete against Dustin at 155 during that fight. View it as you please 🤷🏻♂️

This was awesome. Reaction with the one of the fighters.
Ayeee this is some good stuff guys 🎉

Max didn't look the same vs Dustin! He looked really slow, his footwork looked slow, his punches looked slower! He ain't have the explosiveness like usual
Max has a lot more snap behind his striking now. His power and speed has increased even at 145. I first noticed this during the calvin katter fight.
To be fair Max was a lot slower in this fight than his other ones
ufc do more of these
great content
This is dope!
Still one of the best fights ever.
