Don't be so quick to think it will be DJ. He is fantastic and a small man that is great can beat a big man, but a big man that is good can beat a small man that is great. Great care must be taken against someone twice as big and twice as strong as you.
@@PuroCope Your response was rather incoherent. The part that I did understand is that there are many factors and that is correct. A couple of those many factors are size and strength. If size and strength did not matter, then there would not be weight classes.
@@dvsmith3734 Even in the smallest weight class, DJ was still shorter and smaller than pretty much everyone he fought, and the dude started at bantamweight where he was even smaller comparatively speaking. He definitely overcame some odds to be where he is.
Small stature is not a handicap in life. At most a disadvantage in certain situations but that's a completely different thing. However if you have this aberation about being short rooted in your mind, then yeah, you will have quite some shortcomings along the way.
Never understood how Demetrius wasn't up in the spotlight. Long time MMA fight fans know who he is, how long he's been fighting at the top of his promotions. He deserves more recognition 👑
Absolutely agree and big reason he never got the recognition with UFC is cause Dana White is a trash promoter and can only promote circus clowns and DJ isn’t that lol I think he easily could’ve been promoted a lot better as he’s truly genuine humble and he lets his fighting in the cage do the talking for him! I believe ONE Championship is doing a great job promoting him and believe he’s gaining more popularity and recognition fighting with ONE then he ever got in the UFC smh I think his mixed rules fight against Rodtang was truly something special to watch and his rivalry with Adriano Moraes(who is better then any 135lb fighter in the UFC imo) is phenomenal
Flyweight was pretty boring when he was around. When he left: Cejudo KO'ed Dillashaw, Figureido finished long time contender Joseph Benavidez, then Figureido and Moreno put up a FOTY candidate.
Only dude to ever set up an arm bar mid body slam while competing in front of thousands of people, bro is probably the best "fighter" on television we see his size absolute monster
And he went for it at the end of a fight he was already dominating. He easily could've coasted to a unanimous decision, but instead pulls out one of the greatest submissions I've seen in the UFC.
I think Dwight Muhammad Qawi is more likely. He was 5'5 but was light heavyweight and Cruiserweight champion. Even fought at heavyweight against the likes of George Foreman. Had a great jab for a short fighter.
@@Maru7en how does he have a high iq if his fight history doesn't reflect it and his words don't reflect it either? he doesn't sound like he's the brains behind his career as he was off on all 3 takes.
Going to one championship might've been DJ's best decision ever because the UFC truly did not promote his fights properly. One fc on the other hand has got me to be so excited for all his fights. He really was done dirty for a while
@@V12509 well One is a little weird because I mostly love their Muay Thai fights. Rodtang, Jonathon haggery, pk saenchai, allizov, saemapetch, and Liam Harrison are all really fun to watch. Really all of the Muay Thai top 5 guys are amazing in every division. The submission grappling in one is also really fun with people like Mikey musemeci and the ruotolo brothers. As for MMA, Demetrius Johnson and moraes are both great. Sage northcutt is finally back in the cage. I haven't paid too much attention to the rest of the mma fights in one just yet.
Shane, I've been watching your channel for many many years man and it's so crazy how huge you've become on social media. you deserve it but most importantly definitely earned it. I used to love watch your breakdown or how to "fight like" a certain fighters. Would love if you can do some of those videos soon

And I totally get it, I hold you both in the same regard. Just wanted to let you know that I see you, brother! Happy for all your success over the years!

@@MynameisBrianZX Also because he wasnt a mean spirited trash talker like McGregor, and was actually a very nice guy who respected his opponents before and after the fight.
holy smokes bro, i remember finding you when you just started out and i remember the ups and downs you went through when you were growing your channel. glad to see you stuck with it and are so big now.
DJ is an exceptionally well rounded fighter and skillwise, fight IQ and conditioning on par with GSP, Jon Jones and all the greats, there is no discussion. One of the most accomplished MMA fighters ever yet severely underrated by many. He'd still dominate the UFC Flyweights with ease and I'd give him a realistic chance at UFC Bantamweight gold. But unfortunately this might be a forever what-if.
The more I watch him the more I respect him. he is an incredible fighter but he also shows that you can approach this with a sports mindset. A great fighter who is still always humble and honourable. That is a role model to look up to and the world needs more good role models. Thank you for putting this video together. it was fascinating to listen to this man talk strategy.
Pretty much everyone called it too lol If he could weather the first round, there was no way it was going into the third. I think DJ did a lot better in the Muay Thai round than people were expecting, too, though I'm not sure why it was completely surprising given how skilled he is.
I was a production director at a sports radio station in St Louis and had DJ in to record a promo for an upcoming event. He refused to read a script that had salty language (like "kick ass") I immediately had respect for him. He was truly a soft spoken, humble and kind dude. This was before he became known nationally and was a favorite moment in my 30 yr career. I sensed he was a follower of Jesus. It was obvious. He's a legend. Thanks for the memories DJ !
The kind of legacy this one man has built in fighting. It actually gives me chills. And he didn’t brag like triple C. I just know what He has accomplished and when I see him. I think this is a bad bad man. Even though he is always smiling and happy and a good parent. I think don’t mess with that guy. The guy is a true true legend. Greatness mixed with kindness and true humility. The philosophy is next level - Dana just could not understand it.
Shane I'm super proud of you man. I found your channel with the video about keeping the mouthpiece on you and that was my intro to FightTips. Then seeing you move to LA and build the homegym and work with people like Bubba Jenkins, and seeing you break it down and live in a van and shower with a thing that looks like an IV drip, all the way to making content with the greatest to ever do it. And that's after your Rodtang video. It's been real to watch your growth as a RUclipsr and martual artist. Good on you, man. Hope to meet you one day
According to Bruce's own fights he juggled people easily but it was hard for him to KO them. So he'd end up getting lured into a counter punch or blitzed or out wrestled eventually. But he would be a ver y fun fighter to watch.
Bruce Lee had ONE official fight ever... as a teenager. Any pro fighter would utterly destory him. Bruce Lee was an actor and a student. There is a difference
@@Specialistkay The "Judo" in his name was his Pro wrestling gimmick. Like "The Rock" or "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. Common knowledge. He started as Catch wrestler from early childhood, taught by some of the best. His mom ran the biggest Catch/Pro wrestling circuit in LA, so he had access to top quality coaching from early on. He took on Judo much later. Gene also worked as Pro wrestler himself for long time; both before and after taking on Judo.
@justinhunt4767 Bruce made an excellent effort to develop his own mixed martial arts system, but with him working heavily on his own, and not testing and refining his system in actual high-level combat as much as modern MMA, Bruce's system was more limited. This is because modern MMA has been developed as a collaborative effort, with over a thousand high level fighters fighting each other and producing concrete evidence of all the pros and cons of different moves and styles, to prove exactly what works in actual combat, against the best fighters in the World, over and over again. So, it's kind of a comparison between one highly skilled individual working on his own project for a decade with limited practical testing, vs over a thousand of the best people working on the same project for a few decades with thousands of real fight tests, then passing it on for the next generation to continue developing, over and over again. So, even though Bruce made a good initial work, modern MMA has advanced significantly past Bruce's fighting system because there's just been so many great fighters developing it over the years.
I think the boxer Demetrious was referring to was either Joe Calzaghe or Jack Dempsey. A great example of that technique was Roy Jones Jr. vs Calzaghe back in the day. Great content! If Demetrious Johnson was a boxer he would be much like Marvin Hagler I think. I see a lot of similar techniques they share.

How do I beat Isaac Frost in Fight Night Champions? I get to the sixth or seventh round and he just knocks me out every time no matter how much I try avoid him
Well the thing with Bruce Lee is apparently when he died, he was in the process of researching grappling arts for Jeet Kune Do, so even though combinations of grappling and striking were still uncommon in organized martial arts, he was ahead of the curve on that If you wanna learn how a smaller guy beat The Rock, go talk to Shane Helms. Hurricane got a clean win on The Rock in 2003. The secret is to have Hurripowers.
Sorry but the Rock isn't going to let Demetrious do any of that. We saw what happened with Shane and Juji and the Rock is double Demetrious's weight and over a foot taller. It's over for him if he tries to go up against a WWE wrestler with any kind of turtling or grappling. He'd have better odds if he went for an organ shot or a KO. The disparity is too great IMO and he's too small that the Rock would just toss him around like a toy.
@@TOrganic, He's not a professional fighter but there's no doubt that he can actually fight. An average joe or most TMA practitioners will have no chance against him because of his massive size and strength.
@@lionsden4563 Agreed...many dismiss size and strength, but it can be difficult to overcome.. Not saying one should be afraid of size, not at all...just saying that if it didn't matter, then go ahead and pair frank mir against MM....anyone doubts who the winner would be?

Awesome Video! DJ is a Class Act
The greatest fighter of all time right here!
Amazing, Mighty Mouse is the best there is. So awesome you guys got to share your knowledge with us!
The 🐐
DJ Sound effects are awesome
Sick man I watched your stuff when you had like 100k subs or something now your interviewing the goat!
The GOAT 🐐
Thanks Shane this was an awesome video
Mighty Mouse is the GOAT.
LOL....Love this guy DJ in every single aspect of him life-fight.
How do I beat Isaac Frost in Fight Night Champions? I get to the sixth or seventh round and he just knocks me out every time no matter how much I try avoid him
Skill
Well the thing with Bruce Lee is apparently when he died, he was in the process of researching grappling arts for Jeet Kune Do, so even though combinations of grappling and striking were still uncommon in organized martial arts, he was ahead of the curve on that
If you wanna learn how a smaller guy beat The Rock, go talk to Shane Helms. Hurricane got a clean win on The Rock in 2003. The secret is to have Hurripowers.
Thank you so much for original content that isn't dripping with vapidity and narcissism!
The rock is not 6’5. You can look it up. He’s like 6’2
Exactly
Yes!!!!! This is real. DJ on fight tips!!!
If this guy was 5’10 he would hold 4 different belts
If he was 5'10 he wouldn't be as technical. Gravity bro
@@gigachad6885 he’d still be very good?
Plus jones is one of the most technical fighters and he’s 6’4
@@Seven-tk7sp if by technical you mean being a dirty fighter who sticks fingers in eyes and tries to hyperextend knees . Then sure.
@@AliHamza-sv4ni his fanboys might attack you
5'10 is that big? It wouldn't change anything.
You can tell by DJs demeanor that he loves spending time with his children. Much respect for this guy.
But what if they weigh 260? 😂😂😂
Dj is not only an amazing fighter but hes one of the best an most honorable sports in the game
But he's 260
😂😂
Loool
How he takes off after knocking. That guy out is hilarious, literally like Jerry in a cartoon on tippy toes
If DJ is 5’3 does that mean Shane is 5’6???
Thats more than 3 inches i see between them.
@@newhybrid101lol, maybe half an inch of difference
What a great guy!
The GOAT! FIRST
Respect!
Sorry but the Rock isn't going to let Demetrious do any of that. We saw what happened with Shane and Juji and the Rock is double Demetrious's weight and over a foot taller. It's over for him if he tries to go up against a WWE wrestler with any kind of turtling or grappling. He'd have better odds if he went for an organ shot or a KO. The disparity is too great IMO and he's too small that the Rock would just toss him around like a toy.
Mr my dads bigger than yours 😂
Sorry but The Rock is no fighter.
Juji didn't even do anything but I get your view
@@TOrganic,
He's not a professional fighter but there's no doubt that he can actually fight. An average joe or most TMA practitioners will have no chance against him because of his massive size and strength.
@@lionsden4563
Agreed...many dismiss size and strength, but it can be difficult to overcome..
Not saying one should be afraid of size, not at all...just saying that if it didn't matter, then go ahead and pair frank mir against MM....anyone doubts who the winner would be?
Amazing Martial Artist and fighting perception🙇🏻🥊🥊🥋
I pray for anyone seeing this, that they know God loves them and that their hearts turn to him. Despite the pain they went through I pray they let God use thay pain to build their character instead of letting the devil destroy their lives with it
When I saw him hit an arm bar in the air I was like ok this guy is the goat he can do it all man !!!
Glad to see the GOAT here…. And, of course, mighty mouse
Sick video bro
Awesome episode 😎🤙🏾
What a cool guy. He seemed really well balanced as a person. Doesn't define himself as a tough guy, mma fighter. Really likeable.
DJ is the MMA GOAT. And he's a nice guy. Dude has some outrageous moves.
lmao the cat scream before the takedown. dj is a funny dude
this dude is a Cell Jr.
