That press conference is awesome because its literally the "angry teen" and the dad who was ALSO an angry teen when it was his time OSS hahaha
AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH
calling meregali a angry teen is wild, vagner was all talk
“Vagner what are your keys to victory”
Vagner-I’m doing it rn 🥶
It certainly appeared that way. Wether or not it results in him winning remains to be seen, but he's off to a great start.
That was a cop out. He doesn’t have keys to victory, he knows there’s no chance
“I’m not like you; I’m way better than you.” -Meregali
fire lol
Honestly, Nicholas heated himself alone, Vagner was sitting here like "wtf"
Roids will do that
arm lock.....the end
love to see this back and forth very entertaining. Seems like rocha is in meregali's head lol
This was the only BJJ press conference that has been entertaining considering how unlikable both guys are. It's like seeing two movie villains go at it.
I know vagner likes to help people who like em young. What's meragalis villian story?
It always trips me out when I hear Rocha speak with a thick American accent. I always expect a Brazilian accent xD
Meregali might win but this was impressive with by Vagner
By Odin’s Beard! I had no idea how wonderful Vagner Rocha’s voice is! I hope he goes into commentating ten years from now when he retires from competition!
Vagner has the best english from a brazillian i have ever seen
I was going to say that . I am very surprised . That guy seems to be American
I mean he’s been in the US since age 5
This is more entertaining than the fight 😝 !!!!
Vagner’s a slick talker, but he willl get dominated.
"I would rather have my 2 years English than your 25 years Jiu-Jitsu". 🤣🤣
Well put. I don't know why a lot of US athletes can't understand that being disrespectful to someone making the effort to speak *your* language is not a good look and is just a weak argument (it's not even an argument in fact. It shows that you have nothing better to say).
What? Vagner was born in Brazil. Everyone at their level of Jiu jitsu all think merrigali is copying Gordon Ryans foot print. The sad thing is if merrigali was American. He would be better financially than Gordon Ryan. Gordon and merrigali have a very I mentality. Vagner is right, merrigali couldn't call Pena. Pena and Craig Jones have trained together. In Brazil and America, merrigali and Gordon aren't very liked in the Jiu jitsu community.
@@jarkinmalarkin My bad if he was born in Brazil but you see my point: denigrate someone because you speak better English is lame.
@@jarkinmalarkin I've just read that he moved to the States at 5 ... that would explain that superiority complex I'm talking about.
@@kwest-fr He was born in Brazil but moved to the US at 5 years old (therefore no accent). And either way, it is well-known that this is Meregali's second language, so unless you think you don't have a way to beat him with Jiu Jitsu (and talking about Jiu Jitsu), no reason to go there...
@@kwest-fr it was more about dissing merrigali because merrigali said cold or whatever but he was meant to say calm. There have been times where merrigali never looks calm, merrigali was probably meant to say cool, calm and calculated but before no gi, he used to be emotional. The reason it was a good disrespect to get under merrigali skin is because merrigali trains people in the US.
These guys are so good
Gonna be great tomorrow night 👊
Lmaoo love Vagner for pressing him, idk why but Meragali is just so unlikeable
It really is because he's not genuine. It seems like he is trying to be a character.
@@realjaytruth Ngl I agree
@AlexBSFR You dont know why? Arrogance and defensiveness, pretty clear.
Nicolas you're not being emotional, you are being PASSIONATE! Good luck.
Go look up the definition of passion my man
@@rhmotes no need to, what I said is correct
@@Sikalafo82 The definition of passion is: "Strong or powerful emotion"
Well, Mr. Dictionary.. 😂 the direct definition doesn't apply in the above context and how Nicolas feels or talks about jiu-jitsu. It is called passion, and he is being passionate.
@@Sikalafo82 "definitions don't apply to me because my ego doesn't let me admit I was wrong" 🤣 cmon bro
That was a master class on how to intellectually own a narcissist. I think Mereghali wins the fight, but Vagner won that like I have never seen anyone win a press conference, just a master class.
Vagner speaks a lot of bullshit though. Talks about immaturity and what not but he himself is a dirty player and a dickhead. Which is fine for a 20 something year old but Vagner is in his 40s.
Calling that a "master class" is a pretty low bar
STOP overusing and misusing the word narcissist. Narcissism is a very specific mental illness. Merigalli isn't a narcissist in the least bit, he just has an approach to competing that many people find unlikable.
Just because someone is an asshole with selfish tendencies, doesn't make them a narcissist. Everyone is a narcissist to somebody with that loose understanding and utilization of the word.
Not a chance hahaha Vagner is cooked. 0 chance on the mats, 0 chance on the mic. No one wants vagners jj lol imagine doing this for 25 years and looking like that dirty bum
He is very narcissistic. We can say that confidently without a formal dignosis.
How did this end. ?
I'm not sure if I totally agree with Vagner on Nicholas just beating his recent lineup just by trash talk and mental pressure. However, it might have just been a tactical jab at Nicholas' ego by saying so. To get him to reveal his emotions. Furthermore, Vagner handled him with levelheadedness in that press conference, and defeated him mentally. Truly. That was a sight to see. He was spot on about Nicholas not being himself. Spot on about his emotions not being a sign of mental strength. As Vagner was pressing into that, you could see and hear the insecurity. I will say, at the 1:00:30 mark Vagner begin to hold him in his palm, mentally, with the "your are selfish" and "you are trying to emulate someone else" comments (again). Then Nicholas began to interrupt him (really coming unglued) and Vagner never regained that same wording, or momentum back. I think Vagner could have really done him in right then. I think it was a real missed opportunity. Nevertheless. Vagner definitely won that exchange. Sheesh. Can't wait for tomorrow!
I think you overestimate how effective these verbal exchanges actually are. Vagner also managed to clearly "beat" Gordon during their press conference a few months back, but then got demolished on the mat. He's clearly less socially awkward and more articulate than Meregali, but I highly doubt that he won't get dominated tonight.
@@Koko161081 oh don't get me wrong. I totally understand that. And I agree. Simply pointing out that Vagner was better in the press conference doesn't definitively mean "Oh wow, Nicholas will now lose the match". I don't think there is much of a chance for Vagner on this match. Nevertheless, Vagner got to him during that exchange. That isn't questionable.
Vagner 10-7
arm lock....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Meregali will easily win! Let’s go champ!
First ! Go Meregali !
Let’s go Rocha!
Rocha part of a community that involves Cyborg
Enough to make him no part of the bjj community
thank you
🎉vagner helped Marcel Goncalves after Marcel admitted to inappropriate relationships with a 16 year old fightsports student. Cyborg helped Marcel too
Best trash talk since Conor McGregor
I want all those people to have the same energy to comment after Vagner got completely dominated. Meregali is one of them ones. Shout ou to Vagner tho
Ive never considered Meregali unlikable...whats with the hate? We get to witness this guy in his prime! And he's right about his champion mentality...look at Max Verstappen for example. The guy is savage but he's after one thing: being number one.
Who is the #1 ranked on this weight divisin?
Portuguese no?
Crazy that Vagner used to fight MMA at 145 and 155! Good to see him at his natural weight.
Let’s gooooooooooo PORRRRRRAAAAAAAAAA
W Vagner lets go
"I'd rather have my two years of english than your 25 years of Jiu-Jitsu" 💀
Reminds me of another Gordon Ryan... I love it
Gordon ryan and meragalli are nothing alike I like gordon not meragalli
@@UnknownUnknown-cj2wz I'm speaking more of the drive of wanting to win. You can tell by the way Meragali speaks that he knows deliberately how he will win and most fighters don't have that. Him and Ryan do. That's why their record is so phenomenal.
What a hypocrite. So many people are taking Vagner's side on this because he kept a more calm tone. He is talking about keeping control of emotions when he sparta kicked an opponent off the stage at an event. He's done the same thing at other press events where tries to speak with more class than the opponent and acts like a child on the mats.
Meregali is turning into a heel supervillain arc. Hes always stoking the fires against good guys.
Rocha fritou a mente do Meregali kkkkk
Nick is baby Gordon now predicting his finishes 🤣👶🏻👶🏻
As for wagner, this mental game it seems works with Nicolas but he tried to do the same with Gordon and it didn't works
Vagner just gave him a lesson right there
Meregali is about to destroy him
He sounds like Rogan
One man has accolades the other doesn't.
Ive heard other pro jiu jitsu guys say merrigali is copying gordon but this was well put by vagner. I hope merrigali wakes up one day and realises it would suck to be gordon Ryan. Gordon has no friends and cucked his misses to his brother, gordon can barely move in the day and is constantly sad about his stomach. If merrigali thinks he will be the next gordon ryan financialy, he wont be. John daninher really gets his students to use I a lot but also keeps his students to only train under him and john seems to really promote jiu jitsu to get big but only under his name. The new wave team, they all have this arrogance and a weird false alpha personality. Vagner is right, jiu jitsu is fun and all but its a small sport. I hope merrigali isnt delusional enough to think hes ever gonna earn the amount that tyson earnt. So why be so emotional over jiu jitsu.
Vagner dominated
This one is going to be lopsided
Can anyone tell them, and particularly Meregali, that they will do a grappling MATCH and not a FIGHT 🤦♂️
Vagner going on his antihero arc exposing meregalis narcissism
Nicholas obviously got mad. Some people it helps. Some it hurts.
We will see tomorrow
Wily vet trying to get in the young stud's head. Young stud let him in a bit but it probably won't be enough. Can't blame him for trying.
New wave guys ego is to high
Chill bro 😂
Ohh my goodness grash my guys, Wagner we know you don’t think anything is dirty. Homie treating other guys fingers like the twisty jawn on a loaf of bread.
Vagner Rocha 10x9
Vagner's english won't help him on the mat
Rocha tried to corner Meregali but it didnt work 😂😂 calling him selfish, but Meregali's answers were articulate and clear.
Aren’t his coach’s two greatest champions, Georges Saint Pierre and Gordon Ryan, not super emotional. 🧐 💭
Weirdly immature of Meregali. He's never been mentally in control but I wonder if being around Gordon has made him regress.
10-7 Rocha
Meregalli got cooked 😂
Vagner unce'd him! Haha Mr personality is so hard to like
If you look close Gordon’s sack imprint is on Meragalis chin….
Respect for Rocha, but he is way too old for Meregali, IMO. Fun match, but lets be real here-- who in their right mind would put money on Rocha?
Meregali with only 500 words is a better trashtalker 😂👏
No, he’s not
Nic is a stone cold killer, he comes out as selfish and narc but all greats are the same. If you dont have the "i´m number 1" mentality , guess what...
GSP wasn’t a narcissist
Vagner is my age. This will be ugly.
Lfg meregali ! Show them tomorrow osssu
Vagner is going to get smoked😂 trying to get in meregalis head isnt going to get the job done
Meregali going to destroy Rocha
I again being such a great Jiu Jitsu player and still have that think a skin
This dude def cry in the shower
I'll admit Vagner's English IS better that Meregali but that's about it. Won't help him in the match though.
These two need to watch more wwe promos. Would slick up their talking game. Which both suck
Nicolas is better
The Host of this interview is terrible, boring, and fake... Nicholas is embarrassing himself by pretending to be Gordon and Vagner is talking big for a man who kicks opponents during grappling matches
Fake is a weird take? I just sit up there and ask questions, not sure how you analyzed me as a fake person from that. If you wanna hang out some time and then you can decide if I’m fake just let me know. Send me the location and I’ll pull up.
@@ogtreyrobinson ok... I don't know if this is a legit invitation to hang out or a Khabib-style threat lol. If it is a legit invitation, I will take you up on your word and hit you up when I am in Texas.
BTW, when I say fake is because you say things like "I have shivers down my spine" yet, you look like you are just going through the motions, bored. Because after all, it is your job.
This is a mismatch match
Vagners cooked lol no one wants Jiu Jitsu like him, no one looking for his instructionals, Vagner is absolutely no one’s favourite grappler. Going to lose easily tomorrow, lot of cope on the mic today
Wagner will lose badly....Nicholas is just too good
Meregali really put Vagner in his place 👏
Having these types of press comferences for bjj is cringe, because watching bjj is boring
