I suspect people will dismiss being a two time world kickboxing champion as nothing special to simply being in the ufc and being in the top ten. It’s completely understandable to see Alex as one of the best fighters in the world right now.
They (MMA fans) always have. They really think it's nothing, like any ufc fighter can accomplish the same. Adesanya, revered as "one of the greatest strikers in mma history" went 2-2 there. When it comes to striking, Alex is a different league entirely. Don't bring up Thompson or any other guy. Not even close.
@PoatanCombatSportGOAT I never understood why Thompson was ever talked about as being one of the best strikers. He's decent that's it. People see the hook kicks and love it for some reason.
Well, he survived Jan’s grappling. As of now, we assume Jan’s grappling is better than Jiri’s just based off what we have seen. Anything can happen of course.

Love the respect for Poatan. CHAMA 🔥
Well he's a two belt UFC champion now too so his legacy is cemented now love everything about poatan and glover and their story chama🎉🎉
Well fast forward 9 months and he's doing absolutely amazing. Nobody can deny or dismiss his achievements.
Just rewatched the Glover Jiri fight. This guy is a Legend!!
He was but after these last two big Ls he lost his Legend status.
Jiri would've dominated the rematch
@@tomascech6772Once a Legend always legend
bruh he was still smiling in the start of the 5th round
Glover is the big grandpa of mma, now his grandchild will beat everyone who bullied him, Jamahal next.
Somewhere down the line i would love to see Jiri training with Glover and Alex, this three have it all when we talk about fighting
I think if Pereira wins this belt and the heavyweight belt he goes down as the best fighter to ever live.
Where is the weigh in show?
Come on TNT upload it
It baffles me Bisping was making 185 in his late 30s. And never missed weight a single time in his career.
He’s 5”10
@@lukethomasprteamhe's 6"2, same as Glover.
@@DanielR1233 yeah and I’m 6”7 junior
@@lukethomasprteamO’Malley is 5’11” and fights at bantamweight. What’s your point?
@@mcgot2good omali is 5”8 in real life I met him in phoenix
Glover is the real Kratos.
no , saint denis
goh @@kalzwirazrd
Pareira! 💪
pereira needs to pressure jiri to take away his crazy awkward unpredictable offense or its gonna be a long night for pereira
Yeah go on. Tell one of the greatest fighters in combat sport how to fight.
Clown.
Why couldn’t I find a link to watch the tnt live stream for the weigh in?
I wondered this myself Adam, i was looking for a link earlier too
Bump
Congratulations champ!
He catch everybody ✅👍😇
Poatan. The best of The best. 👊👊
I would like to see a grappling match between Glover Texeira and Gabriel Gonzaga
Very off topic ,. Gonzaga was Hw ,.. very HW
Surprising statement. I thought fighters in UFC are the worst fighters in the world.
Obviously its more specific clown
Definitely in the top 10,000
Alex has zero wrestling, and ground game, good stand up and kick boxing for sure🎉🎉
Well, he survived Jan’s grappling. As of now, we assume Jan’s grappling is better than Jiri’s just based off what we have seen. Anything can happen of course.
That’s just false
He used to be for real but after Izzy put those arrows into him he became a walking JOKE. I love him but he is so done.
He’s literally going to attempt what Izzy couldn’t, get those izzy nuts out of your mouth, Sean embarrassing izzy was much worse
lol alex knocked him out
@@AiCryptoSpace he wobbled him. Izzy put him to sleep for like 10 minutes he almost died lol.
@@tomascech6772 u dumb i am talking about jiri
