If all they did was buy Conor cards they will he fine. Conor isn't the greatest fighter ever but he is great and by far the most popular. His cards will out sell GSP, Silva, Jones, Chuck or Gracie.
@@ericmoore8739 I don’t have any problem with people making money off of Mcgregor, but I think his stuff is too high in price at this point and has been expensive. I think other great fighters that I mention are a better buy. I wouldn’t want to get caught spending at these prices, even my friend that’s a big Mcgregor fan thinks his stuff is over priced. I bought a few Mcgregor cards, and that’s because it was cheap (kinda) at the time. I don’t want to get caught holding the bag, and I’d recommend Khabib, GSP, or Jon Jones. I’m no Mcgregor hater either.
I just picked up TRIPLE C 2017 auto for 9$ he could possible come back and fight Alexander and become the first triple belt champ. Style bender is about to be a double champ, and could be a triple champ when he goes up to fight Jon Jones. Picked up a shevchanko auto, she’s way more like able then nunez and also as dominate as nunez. Street Jesus could also be a good pick up.
Everybody knows if your a real UFC Fan it's GSP round 1 card that's the card you want in your collection. And if you had to compare the to gsp achieved way more then conor mcgregor ever will let alone have mcgregor sniff a little shot after his last performances lol forgot to mention if it's fan based conor obviously might win that sinarrieo
@@crystalwiser5980 I think your pump and dump accusation is absolutely ridiculous. Nevermind that it would completely risk his reputation, Geoff has no need to pump a few cases to try and sell them, he makes so much more money from giving investment advice and what little he would get from a pump on a video pales in comparison to what he makes through all his investments. Also, I think it's absurd to assume he could influence the market to that extent.
@@crystalwiser5980 Like any Commodity, he provides insight based on the Best available information and it's up to the Consumer to due some of their own due diligence and decide for themselves. I don't believe for a minute he would risk his livelihood and reputation to "Pump and Dump". I found his video for ie. 2019-20 Panini Contenders Draft Picks Basketball which is supposed to contain 1 Signature Card Per Blaster very informative (which he didn't have to share). In the video, 40 boxes were going to be opened and he Stopped after 20 because he noticed a trend and for those who didn't notice, he explained. As I seem to recall, there was NOT a Signature card in every box, the few Sig Cards they did get were from Undrafted Players, so worthless, and the majority of the Boxes had a Panini Points card in lieu of a Signature card.
they didnt release a 2020 topps chrome UFC because Panini recently bought the rights to UFC cards so hopefully soon we will get some nice UFC panini products. this will JUMP the price of the older stuff tremendously. hopefully sometime in the beginning of 2021 we get some panini UFC.
See I think the opposite. Once Panini comes out I think interest in the Topps chrome cards are going to drop. The hype will move to Panini and all eyes and dollars will move there.
@@jigilous the hype will move there for sure, but the thing is if you have Topps product you’re sitting on a gold mine because there won’t be anymore product available with rookies cards of legends of the sport. Either way it’s still good for the cards.
@@manarod3054 I hope you are right. I have 7 hobby boxes of different years of Topps ufc chrome that are shooting way up in price. Hope I won’t have remorse by holding on to them and waiting for higher profits.
I don't want to sound like a party pooper or anything but I was thinking this same thing three or four years ago and I bought up a lot of UFC cards and autograph cards and they did not go where I expected them to go. And the ones that I did purchase I verily got my money back out of them as a matter of fact I'm still trying to sell some of them today and only a couple that I purchased was I able to make a profit on. So I'm not very enthusiastic about UFC cards at all. Don't get me wrong I love the cards I think they're beautiful cards and I still enjoyed collecting them because I love the sport I am a huge fan but as an investment I'm not so sure about them.
It’s more the base, refractors, color parallels of rookies and 2017-2019 Chrome of big names instead of autographs. Just like other sports it’s current fighters not the great HOF guys.
I accidentally found you guys. Great insight for starting. I’ve been around UFC since the VHS UFC 1 days. Very familiars with most all the OG fighters to current. Do you have tutorials on what to look for when collecting like boxes, rares, uncommons, etc. I’m looking to start building my collection 🤟🏼 Just subscribed.
Those old school UFC fights were bananas, some absolute circus fights. We try and breakdown some of the products and parallels in our videos, might be helpful if you’re still in the hobby.
UFC careers are way too short ... only a few guys in USC history have had staying power. Unless you invest in Jones/Gracie/Silva etc ... there's no point.
Dude, do you think we come here to hear some newbie tell us how much he likes something because Gary Vee told him to like it? Sheep get slaughtered in all markets. If I want to hear from Gary I'll go to his channel. News Flash I won't be going to Gary's channel
Totally agree. I started investing in UFC cards , but it's more as a hobby as I do box breaks as well , manage to pull some nice cards , however currently the market it's not that great but if I keep holding on them they will soon go up. UFC it's not very known or popular in Europe but its growing , once Europe fan base are close to USA than we will have a different discussion. Anyway good video👏👍
I just got into sports cards investing, some of my first cards I got was mma/ufc autos. I think stylebender will be as big as mcgregor! First 3 division champ, he’s international!
I did some breaks of UFC and it is awesome to break! Just wish there was more of an audience, I always tell people in my discord if we have the audience for it we will break it :D
Have been a long time MMA fan since the mid 90's, and have religiously followed/collected anything that has to do with the sport. That being said, I will be the first to tell you that a fighter's stock will never be as much as a stick & ball player due to the high chances of losses or injury. MMA fighters tend to have more losses, and much like Conor Mcgregor, his stock will eventually fall. If you were to invest in MMA cards, invest in the guys who are already retired or set to be in the HOF. Khabib Nurmagamedov is a better investment than Conor imo.
I’m holding sealed hobby boxes of 2017-19 of Topps chrome and the price has for sure exploded. Paid around $150 for the 2017 boxes and they are going for $580 now!
@@jigilous I’ve only been buying singles. Earlier today I was researching sealed product and was surprised how much sealed has gone up. I still think singles haven’t gone up accordingly still though.

Gonna disagree on this one. Guys fight what 2-3x a year and have very short careers. Best guys are pay per view so kids aren't watching that. 100+ games a year in basketball and baseball and 15 yr+ careers, free to watch. Completely different demographics, I know a lot of MMA guys and they aint collecting cards.
These prices of modern sports cards, come on, ain’t no kids buying anything else either. People were not collecting UFC cards because no one else were not collecting - it’s all about having markets. UFC is rather a new sport, things can change. Maybe even quickly. Check out the social media followers of McGregor! It’s way more than Brady or LaMelo.
I agree but it's not necessarily tied to Connor McGregor. It can be forgiven if you're not a "die hard" fan of MMA. It can be a harsh community to outsiders, I admit, ask SAS from ESPN. But, I do think that MMA is growing year-over-year and that that trend will likely continue. I'm not as concerned about Connor McGregor. There's always a guy or gal like that. All the way back there have been fighters like Chuck Liddell, Anderson Silva, GSP, Brock Lesnar, Jon Jones, Ronda Rousey, Connor McGregor, Khabib Nurmagomedov. I'm confident that eventually another big star will emerge, and they have always been bigger than the last, probably because the sport is still one of the youngest and has a lot of growth potential. I think you guys should probably not place all your bets on McGregor. Connor, like T. Woodley, has been doing other things and this sport is very unforgiving to "ring rust." I don't expect Connor to rise to the level he reached prior to the Mayweather fight, especially fighting infrequently. He even cited lack of frequent fighting as contributing to his recent loss. But, I think other fighters are on the verge of breaking out into the next stars. Khabib has retired, apparently for good. So, Khabib cards may be a good investment now, since this will mark his likely permanent retiring year. I also think that Kamaru Usman has embarked on a dominant reign that not many fighters in his weight class can threaten. As his title defenses grow, so will his reputation as a "GOAT." He can beat top contenders in his division for now and the foreseeable future. So, he might be a good investment as well. Israel Adesanya is coming off a loss at light heavyweight, but he is very young and can still develop a storied career. People forget that some of the GOAT fighters, like GSP, lost early in their careers. Imagine not believing GSP would amount to GOAT status because he lost to Matt Serra and Matt Hughes, when later in his career he rose above those fighters and all others in his weight class. I believe Adesanya has a potentially similar trajectory. His loss at light heavyweight may have been for the best, because I don't think he can beat Jon Jones today, and it returns him to Middle weight, where he can continue to win against middleweight contenders and build his legacy. There are plenty of other still active fighters who are future hall-of-famers like Amanda Nunes. And there are exciting rising stars like Francis Ngannou. Also plenty of dominant champions that have potential for undefeated title reigns like Valentina Shevchenko and Kamaru Usman.

@@jamstarent21 I can see this happen especially with how limited the supply is. But after a year of mostly buying UFC open I have had almost no cards lose value when resold, and now I got some Jones, Nunes, GSP, Conner, and so many more PC's that are 200-300% up in comps then when I got em. Thankfully I am able to get football/basketball was to resale to buy these cards, but I dont see it too risky since its such a small market still. The vid didnt mention that topps also just lost the UFC contract and Panini will take over. I can see that bumping the market aswell.
why so many thumb downs? this is one of Sports Card Investor best Video. Connor Mcgregor is the GOAT of UFC his rookie card will be worth $10000 in 2 years time.
Conor McGregor...He was on a big loosing strike that end with Khabib...He was waiting for Khabib to retired to get back and took Poirier because he is confident that he can win...Be carefull with this one....
I dont know about all of that but... I DO SEE MOVEMENT ON THE OLDER LATE 95S-2015's!!! Plus it's so much fun opening older cards and pulling some soon to be GREATS OF MY TIME without paying with my left testicle these days for these new overproduced cards. 😏🤫💕
Only reasons cards explode are pump and dump...even this video and other like it can move the market because it’s such a small market...the hype is so bad right now...
I really liked this channel when I 1st found it,as I watched it faithfully I felt worse and worse about my collection,lol. That might make me sound like a whiner, I just wish this channel would have more affordable cards pushed. Sometimes I feel like some cards he's pumping are cards he already invested highly in. I understand he's a business man & making a profit is the priority for him. Please mix up topics for the fans that have 4 kids , mortgage, and very limited budget. Nice job over all, you have done a nice job putting out a good show
There’s still decent value in lower end rookie cards like Chronicles, Panini instant , etc. It’s a just that this is an investment channel and the expensive cards have the best rate of return. Ex. A Luka card I passed on for 350 in February is now with 3500, whereas the card I bought for 80 is now worth 250.

I think you guys should probably not place all your bets on McGregor. Connor, like T. Woodley, has been doing other things and this sport is very unforgiving to "ring rust." I don't expect Connor to rise to the level he reached prior to the Mayweather fight, especially fighting infrequently. He even cited lack of frequent fighting as contributing to his recent loss. But, I think other fighters are on the verge of breaking out into the next stars.
Khabib has retired, apparently for good. So, Khabib cards may be a good investment now, since this will mark his likely permanent retiring year. I also think that Kamaru Usman has embarked on a dominant reign that not many fighters in his weight class can threaten. As his title defenses grow, so will his reputation as a "GOAT." He can beat top contenders in his division for now and the foreseeable future. So, he might be a good investment as well. Israel Adesanya is coming off a loss at light heavyweight, but he is very young and can still develop a storied career. People forget that some of the GOAT fighters, like GSP, lost early in their careers. Imagine not believing GSP would amount to GOAT status because he lost to Matt Serra and Matt Hughes, when later in his career he rose above those fighters and all others in his weight class. I believe Adesanya has a potentially similar trajectory. His loss at light heavyweight may have been for the best, because I don't think he can beat Jon Jones today, and it returns him to Middle weight, where he can continue to win against middleweight contenders and build his legacy. There are plenty of other still active fighters who are future hall-of-famers like Amanda Nunes. And there are exciting rising stars like Francis Ngannou. Also plenty of dominant champions that have potential for undefeated title reigns like Valentina Shevchenko and Kamaru Usman.
Sadly, ufc cards will move away from the small pool of casual collectors and will be 10x more expensive
I doubt it
Fun video to watch buddy was on point but gsp only fought hendricks ones they did not fight twice , crazy fight with gsp thougb the wars were with robbie lawler
UFC cards are booming, one of the fastest growing sports in the world
Its only a matter of time before UFC cards become much more popular. The sport is already expanding super fast.
UFC Cards are via the roof right now. 21' prizm is mega long term investment imho
looking back on this now is so painful
When are ufc cards coming out in the UK?????
UFC, WWE... it’s all just a matter of time and I suspect that is much sooner than most realize.
I got a 10/10 matt riddle rookie auto, and 2 ripley rc autos.
Wwe will never take off. Ufc is rising in popularity, wwe is not. Wwe chrome sitting on Walmart shelves everywhere
@@mynameislarkin that’s cute. You’re clearly not paying attention. Take a look at eBay completed auctions. Not everything about a market is current sealed product, not that I have ever seen it on a store shelf... I haven’t.
If YOU wanna know what sports cards I bought 3 months ago so you can hop on the trend and make them take off so I can profit from them, than THIS episode is for YOU.
Awesome box break there got alota great cards not to mention if they got PSA 10S and I'm on the train of ufc ... Thanks great show as always....
Those Demetrius Johnson Pulls are great too...I know it's all McGregor in this video though
I suggest checking out some recent Soccer card fail videos before investing in martial arts cards.
Not every sport or athlete is collectible
Our trae's value is going down what's your thoughts?
More ufc breaks or battles
It's soooooo difficult to listen to newb UFC/MMA fans(the Parker kid) talk like "experts."
HAHA and how Geoff just had no idea made this a little awkward but they are right.
I was already on that trend 🤙🏽
The credibility has slowly deteriorated from this channel. 😒.
100% true. Who is this kid trying to pump an bunch of crap they bought
Yall just on football/basketball's nuts good luck making any good purchases with those inflated markets
@@cesarmontes3969 go buy some ufc cards then. Ive been collecting for 30yrs. Ufc fighters Are not going to get you profit. Too risky. But you will make Gary V and others money for believing UFC cards gonna blow
@@cesarmontes3969 check my channel. Ive got a few card videos. Nothing will compare to Basketball, Football is getting close with Baseball a close third. Not hating but there is too much manipulation in the card game. These guys buy in bulk and then say oh this guy is the one to get so they can dump them out for profits
@@jamstarent21 I can see this happen especially with how limited the supply is. But after a year of mostly buying UFC open I have had almost no cards lose value when resold, and now I got some Jones, Nunes, GSP, Conner, and so many more PC's that are 200-300% up in comps then when I got em. Thankfully I am able to get football/basketball was to resale to buy these cards, but I dont see it too risky since its such a small market still.
The vid didnt mention that topps also just lost the UFC contract and Panini will take over. I can see that bumping the market aswell.
Sold two Conor's for $750 that I bought for $150 a month prior.
@@ozsportscardcollector4720 Hahaha - I'm putting it into a Mookie Betts rookie Auto for my PC!
Does anyone know what type of card case the kid is using in this video?
Nup, they won't. Few years away
why so many thumb downs? this is one of Sports Card Investor best Video. Connor Mcgregor is the GOAT of UFC his rookie card will be worth $10000 in 2 years time.
I would bet he will be in jail before his cards are worth that, he is a clown
He just lost to dustin got knocked tf out hahaha out Mike tyson??? Nah he's a bum
What next Olympic athletes cards. I want some Usain Bolt RC 😁
Love UFC more other sports!!! Awesome info
Hi I’m interested in that Dominic Cruz auto
Mcgregor's cards went from $250 to up to $1000 since this video was posted (2013 Bloodlines rookie card)
Conor McGregor...He was on a big loosing strike that end with Khabib...He was waiting for Khabib to retired to get back and took Poirier because he is confident that he can win...Be carefull with this one....
I just seen dana white post something about this recently. Props to you man
Dude is so disinterested while opening packs.
I was wondering if I was the only one that was thinking that! Laugh my ass off
When you don’t know the athletes it’s hard to get interested.
Good video and you got some great cards out of that box even without a Connor
I dont know about all of that but... I DO SEE MOVEMENT ON THE OLDER LATE 95S-2015's!!! Plus it's so much fun opening older cards and pulling some soon to be GREATS OF MY TIME without paying with my left testicle these days for these new overproduced cards. 😏🤫💕
Only reasons cards explode are pump and dump...even this video and other like it can move the market because it’s such a small market...the hype is so bad right now...
I really liked this channel when I 1st found it,as I watched it faithfully I felt worse and worse about my collection,lol. That might make me sound like a whiner, I just wish this channel would have more affordable cards pushed. Sometimes I feel like some cards he's pumping are cards he already invested highly in. I understand he's a business man & making a profit is the priority for him. Please mix up topics for the fans that have 4 kids , mortgage, and very limited budget. Nice job over all, you have done a nice job putting out a good show
There’s still decent value in lower end rookie cards like Chronicles, Panini instant , etc. It’s a just that this is an investment channel and the expensive cards have the best rate of return. Ex. A Luka card I passed on for 350 in February is now with 3500, whereas the card I bought for 80 is now worth 250.
gotta be ufc cards but Definitely not Panini fortnite cards. I mean a black knight card just sold for 5500 raw and psa 10s are selling at 90k in the rare versions lmao. Nobody here should buy any 2019 series 1 panini fortnite..... def not
I was thinking about buying them from retail , still soMe available
@@sp123 you are smart man. Most ppl ignoring this gold mine. buy anything you can series 1 and 2. The black knight crystal shard version from series 1 will be a million dollar card. Raw base selling 500, raw holo foil version 2k. Other series 1 skins to get are skull trooper, luxe, leviathan, omega, and Valor. Here is a link to the best fortnite card group on Facebook you can learn and buy, sell or trade facebook.com/groups/PaniniFortniteCardsExchange/?ref=share
Great video!!!
Who's here after Conor got his ass beat & now Dustin's cards are the hottest things happening with a 700% increase?! Lol
I bought a Khabib 2013 refractor before these videos. I hope Geoff is right.
I've been investing only in ufc prices we so cheep could get the founders and hof for so cheep
Who is gary b and how do I follow him lol
*Gary Vee
LMAO the way they over rate mcGregor is INSANE don’t ever compare him to Ali or Tyson again. Conor runs from fights and hasn’t had near the amount those guys had
Geoff you seem to be sleeping hard on the Tennis market, that or you’re buying up before the prices go crazy.
You lost me when you put McGregor in the same category with Ali.
Not hating but the guy is overrated. He ducked so many fighters that aren’t stylistically a good match up for him.
@@Ftsqrl😂he fought khabib, diaz and mendes, who are all bad matchups for him lmao
Gary Vee please co sign somebody from the 2021 nba class so we can cash out like you did with Trey Young and Luka.
If your first hunch is Gary V. Then you already lost.
Ufc cards look bad but if it makes me money why not 😎
its already super expensive
It’s a global sport like soccer.
Staaaaaaaahp! Ya keep blowing up my spot...
I'm screaming Shut up Geoff please.. lol
@@rickjones3965 yeah in a year from now or 2 years from now I’m going to look back and say Geoff from Sports Card Investor ruined my life. I actually want a bunch of legacy cards. I think Rousey and McGregor are big plays ling term. And maybe Izzie. I need to offload some NBA before jumping into those though.
@@karsonwood3081 I'm big into nba and ufc. I been buying and selling ufc for 6 years. I sold so many of these cards to early. But still sitting on a ton of them.. I have a pretty big eBay store dude. Rickjone_8 check me out. I'll hook ya up on nba or ufc. I buy tons too if ya looking to unload anything
@@rickjones3965 I’ll check it out. Good looking out.
I’ve got tons of NBA cards already. Not store worthy just flipping. It’s been fun.
@@rickjones3965 good to see you in the wild. Always been a fan of your fair prices on eBay, seriously
