@@awadreamzz6813 To be fair, Willy Bolters' passing aint too shit hot either. He's gotten much better over the course of 2023 but he would never have been a starting NRL 9 if not for his dad being the coach. He was legit dogshit in 2022.
Crazy to think he was that dude in the first Ultimate Fighter series that would bounce around and act like a monkey😂 will always be a legend in my book
That is just brilliant and great to see Forest & Mike shows the boys the best sport in the States and us showing them the best sport here in Australia....well played everyone
@@sheldonwilson4450helps that Woods has been to media school the last 3 years. This isn’t a trial round, this is round 1 of the season. Ain’t no way we are sending our best there, we’ll just send woodsy 😂
As an Australian, huge fan of the way the UFC and Nrl have been integrating lately. Imagine my surprise being a huge Alex 🗿 fan and seeing him with my favourite NRL team the Melbourne Storm. Hell I'm a huge Bobby knuckles fan and seeing the Panthers do wrestling practice ;) at his gym, really makes me happy. I do MMA. I compete and I also used to play rugby league all throughout highschool. It sounds dumb but honestly the wrestling out of tackles in rugby, really help me with basic takedown defence when I first started MMA. It's hard to shoot a double leg on me if you're the same size because I'm used to grappling the Samoans over a rugby ball 😂😂
Couldn't the NRL have provided the UFC some better highlights of the players!?! Woods putting in big hits would have been better than scoring off a fumbled ball ffs
It's a very, very smart thing to do for NRL to partner with the UFC using the momentum that VOLK AND IZZY have created in the sport, Very smart thing to do and whoever was in charge of this PR move back home really needs a pay rise because this could be the push that the NRL need too excel INTERNATIONALLY not just on a NZ TO THE ISLANDS scale but more broad and global. This could've been something done a very long time ago but the Aussies that we're famous and had pull like; HUGH JACKMAN, KYLE MINOGUE etc... never really represented NRL or AFL out in the spotlight when they we're in it but now you have a CHAMPION like VOLK who has publicly said " I USE TO PLAY RUGBY LEAGUE " Really get's people intrigued in what he use to do before UFC and well.. Here it is. It is a very smart PR move on NRL 's behalf, Next thing to do is to bring back Major sponors like; NIKE, PUMA, ADIDAS, UNDER AMOUR time to get them on board.
For the life of me I can't understand how they chose Billy Walters and Aaron Woods to promote Ruby League. Where is Ponga Walsh Turbo? Cleary or Hynes?? JWH, NAS or HASS for the forwardss?
Should have put on a grabd final replay if they really wanted to show off the game to the American crowd. Broncos vs panthers would have done exactly what they needed plus more
@santouchesantouche2873 Well, QLD and NSW have up over 13 million in population.. to the rest of Australia's 11 million? There for by your last comment, Rugby League must be the biggest sport in Australia?
@Travvv94 Rugby means Rugby union. Union is the rich kid sport in Australia. Rugby league is what all the public school kids play. I would get slapped by my father for confusing the two sports and saying I played rugby instead of rugby league or just league. Not your fault for not knowing but a lot of us Aussie boys would cop it from our fathers for saying Rugby. That's why we pull others up on it. It's just how we were raised. All of my friends and their fathers are the same when it comes to this topic
@@captaineli5334 They didn't even make the 8 last season, they finished in 12th... Historically they have been good but they're coming off a dogshit season. To call them one of the NRL's top teams atm is an absolute farce.
@@jason9996 Oof, you're right, I forgot the Aussies are horse water at Real Rugby, so you play the watered down version and brag when you win it. Good luck at the next Webb Ellis Cup champ 💪
No comparison at all. NO one person can speak the the truth or mind in NRL (australian rugby league) rules upon rules upon rules. UFC different animal...polar opposite. NRL nrl players are nurtured little children in comparison and Yes I'm australian and watched nrl regularly up until 13 or so years ago.
Wouldn't be surprised if after the event in vegas, america has their own rugby league start up in the next 5 years. Be good to see a us vs aus team lol
@rabbitrabbit1243 didn't know they played it over there, but haha mate that's my point. They're right into their sports and I'd reckon it'd piss them right off.
Shame they didn't take AFL. NRL (although tough guys I'll admit) is boring asf. Problem is they don't have an oval anywhere. So this shite goes over. Every good reaction video has been from AFL when it comes to Aussie sports from Americans. And I'm a true ("soccer") fan
@@winston1788 Nope never!! Only NRL, AFL, Cricket etc is mentioned. The Australian media show no attention to MMA or any Aussie Fighters. Volks literally a UFC Champ that represents Australia on the worlds biggest stage yet only MMA fans know who he is here. It’s sad😒
Aaron Woods is the last nrl player who should be teaching how to pass!
LMAOO... Was about to say the same damn thing LOLOLOL
Or train probably
they have a dummy half there and they get the prop to show how to pass... LOL

Basics
They all know how to
Some just think a split second slower when it comes to league
Thanks for having us, team!
Latrell vs Alex Pereira, book it Dana
start him against the strawweights lmao
Hahhahaha he wouldn’t make weight ay
Trell vs jones: battle of the absolute fucking grubs of their sport
you don't like indigenous players@@will_is_barzyBMX
Forrest is such a great asset for the UFC. They sure keep him busy lol
My son is named Forrest as Forrest Griffin was my favourite fighter back in the day
He’s a legend!
Crazy to think he was that dude in the first Ultimate Fighter series that would bounce around and act like a monkey😂 will always be a legend in my book
Ufc showing love to Aussie footy mad
In case anyone might not know, this is the sport Alex Volkanovski played before he became a UFC fighter.
Everybody knew that.
everyone and their dog knows
Thanks man! Volk is a bad dude!
Didn’t know that, that’s cool
And he was like 200 pounds too
ufc facilities look so amazing. Keen to see the footy on March 2nd!
That is just brilliant and great to see Forest & Mike shows the boys the best sport in the States and us showing them the best sport here in Australia....well played everyone
Go the Broncos 🇦🇺😤
Still got no idea why Manly sent Sharon Woods over there
Probly because he’s a good speaker….imagine if they sent turbo over 😂 bro can barely speak normally imagine infront of cameras

Cool story bro
When my top 2 sports collab 😍
Word! Didn't expect to see this
GREATEST GAME OF ALL ''RUGBY LEAGUE''.😎
Would’ve loved to the a comparison of Vo2 max and other fitness stats
Oh NO, you have a prop trying to show Forrest how to pass...that cracked me up. Leave it to Bill mate.

Diabolical that they have Woods and Walters promoting the game. Like you say they don't have the best highlights.

Love it! 👊👊
Americans are gonna love playing Rugby League. Its so much easier to learn than Rugby Union. Coming from a Kiwi that watches the Americans MLR
Surely you don't mean the rules.😄
Awesome!
Make us proud boys (Australia/New Zealand)!
For the life of me I can't understand how they chose Billy Walters and Aaron Woods to promote Ruby League.

Could have been worse, could have sent Jarryd Hayne and Junior Amone
Training for the season mate
Training for the season mate
Josh Reynolds vs Jon Jones book it !!
Love this 👍🏻
Go the mighty Warriors!!! 🇳🇿🇳🇿
USA would suit nrl so much
So cool
That's cool and it's about time the Americans got to experience a real game of footy 👍😉👍
Up the Broncos
forest catches in slap lmao
Shuda sent latrell, carney, bird and reece to vegas
Should have put on a grabd final replay if they really wanted to show off the game to the American crowd. Broncos vs panthers would have done exactly what they needed plus more
Australia’s 2nd Biggest football code in Vegas. I hope they get Bigger crowds in America than they do back in Australia 😂😂😂
hahahahaha nice
Australia's 2nd biggest? What's first? AFL? I thought all the players who don't make it in the NRL play AFL😂 that's how it was in school at least
@j3i3h38 This is maybe true in NSW and QLD. The same scenario cannot be said of other states.

What the fuck is a star jump Forrest is a 🐐🥋👏🤣🤣🤣…
How is Aron Woods a first grader
Bravo, UFC! You'll get some more ex League players in your ranks before too long. A great collab! ✌😄
why would the NRL send Aaron Woods to try impress the UFC fans. This has to be a meme
Not Shaaron
Forest correct jersey . go Manly
Woods is good at talking but man, couldn’t manly bring someone else?
When are they going to change the name to irl instead of nrl last time I checked New Zealand was a different country
Great football
Footy wrestling trumps Dagestani wrestling
Dane Gagai vs Sean Strickland book it dana
Didn't show big hit ups without pads. Let down.
>manly and chooks
>"4 of the best nrl teams"
Something doesn't add up here
Ooosshh the uso Spencer Leniu 🇼🇸 685
Remember boys you can use the tackle technique you just can't turn it into a headlock...
USADA?
Never seen Aaron woods without the tramp hair and beer gut
I really don't know why they didn't send the big names over.
All hail the mighty rabbits.
theost brutal sport in the world meets the UFC 😤
The housing commission sport followed in Qld and parts of NSW 😂😂
Why can't it grow??
Wasting your time having anything to do with the NRL. Keep it seperate, we don’t want them doing it.
They all ready played league
They send sharon woods
Back when Volk was playing rugby he used to weigh 300 lbs!
He wasn’t playing rugby back then mate, he was playing rugby league, rugby and rugby league are two different sports
@michaeldudgeon You think all league players need to specify the sport when they say the word?

Sharon woods 😂 is that the best the nrl can do
🔥🔥🔥
up the bunnies!!
yesss NRL x UFC BUST OUT THE OIL
They'll fail a basic spelling test 🤣😂
I use to be a NRL fan but since i moved countries i been watching only UFC for the last 8 years.
Bring Eben Etzebeth to scare everyone in the UFC.
203cm123kg
I’m pretty sure the lightweights wouldn’t break a sweat against him, size means nothing when your not trained
I doubt 90% of the ufc roster would be scared of him 😂
“4 of the NRL’s best teams” why tf are the sea eagles there
because they're a good team?

promote NRL with inconsistent refereeing
Essendon need to get into this.
Sean Strickland Josh Reynolds “sparring” let’s see it 😅
Strickland hands down would win
aussie aussie oi
Shaaron Woods has a whole new audience to bore now. Play on.
Maybe try practicing Rugby so that you can do better in the next world cup eh?

League over union for you Americans
Haha, training with the UFC? Players these days aren't even allowed to throw a punch during a game,and arw all over paid actors. Thanks for the laugh.
