Wow, never thought I'd see Akiko on an MMA channel, what a legend. Her work has been an inspiration. Thanks for this

[@chrismedz9741]

The 300 poster is hysterical man

[@jesse_sweed]

This is a great concept for a video!

[@ezekielking2311]

Stehrenberger: Oh, so this one is interesting and here’s why!
Guilherme: 🙂🧐😯

[@ttotsbarc]

She is on point with all of her thoughts.

[@ed7590]

This was super interesting, a new perspective from outside the mma world

[@Onlybadtakes2589]

Let her enjoy all the Pride and Rizin posters

[@profightsinfo]

Great content, really enjoyed this!

[@stmusic2164]

Awesome vid, really enjoyed this. Great concept.

[@verrico7536]

Hire her UFC!

[@Wunder]

Cool concept and some great insights! I would’ve liked it if she got a bit more context after her initial impressions. Obviously we can’t get the original artist but for things like storylines or situations going into an event it might’ve made more sense to her.

[@menacephilosophical]

She is fire

[@verrico7536]

Right? And at least 20 years working in the movie industry..
Milfy😂

[@alanclinton4239]

So the conclusion is, Pride had the best posters. . .

[@savwar]

great content well done guys!

[@jasonwe6er]

Awesome video

[@josemariaaguila2658]

Pride 2004 GP is one of the most beautiful posters ever designed for combat sports. The concept was the iconic Pride “there can only be one” finger in the air. 6 billion humans. Only one GP Champion. The next great champion could be suckling at his mother’s breast as we speak.😭😭 thing of beauty. I miss Pride.

[@obillorchkenobi]

Nice fresh vid. 😁👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 thanks!

[@OHB666]

I’m a fan of anyone involved in last of us 🔥

[@rockelino]

100% T-Rex poster

[@kingshighway123]

I am here for Poster Critique Night!

[@MyLordAndSavior]

I would definitely...

[@JPW328]

I have a couple Pride posters! They are definitely better than UFC. Also the gloves were amazing! Truly a revolutionary design ahead of its time

[@MainCardMinute]

This is random af lmao

[@e.caseyleydon2560]

This is great.

[@Sinisterslurp]

different content i like it

[@raghu_rangashamaiah]

That’s new and I liked it

[@ThousanWhite]

Bring back the Legos style!

[@mattm8098]

Definitely should bring it back for a Moreno fight night card. That dude breathes legos

[@andyboom2004]

It's actually nice to have an actual expert articulate what we all sort of understand on visceral level to be good or bad about some of the posters. And, let's face it: most have been more bad than good recently. Definitely an interesting video concept with an unexpected payoff.

[@koof1776]

I love Japanese culture~

[@munchnews4015]

The baby feeding on the breast makes no sense

[@ThousanWhite]

10:00 I always loved the UFC 300 minimalist poster and this might be the hindsight / confirmation bias talking but I shared Stehrenberger's opinion from the beginning. UFC 300 is all you really needed. It sells itself at this point and it worked out beautifully in the end. In fact, one might argue, that over time, it will age way better than the 100 and 200 posters too.

[@ZeroBalanceMMA]

No don’t try and convince yourself or defend this absolute mockery of a poster , it’s 100000% lazy and a spit in the face to real UFC poster collectors . Shame

[@Eyeofthetiger69]

​@@ZeroBalanceMMAfr. It's not like the card had Conor in it that they could get away with putting none of the fighters in it.

[@Brucelee-pv6uf]

Looks pretty sound weird

[@popsongromance]

so famous her name didn't make the title of the video.

[@godtenderlovingcare]

Akiko sux

[@Guru-ue2yp]

You woke nerds!
