That max finish still gives me goosebumps

[@RiderLover2426]

right? been two weeks and im still just in awe of it.

[@6tiple6ix6afia]

Yeah just why continously say "literal last second" over and over in the video when you could just stick to "last second" as a phrase and not be wrong. The list did not include exclusively "literal last second" finishes. Idk why people feel so obliterated to make up shit to heap on top of something that is already great and impressive enough. It's like calling Hitler a "literal demon". Bro dude did enough to be evil, we get it. Rant ovet

I feel like we get so few Jason videos these days that I always feel really glad when I hear that voice at the beginning. Love Tommy and Bayliun but we gotta have more Jason.

my buds skipped that Holloway fight to watch a couple episodes of Fallout together and I still dont let them forget the mistake they made

Bruh, that one had Fight of the Night written all over it before the event even started. There's something seriously wrong with your friends, lol.

[@branlopgar]

I'd argue you seriously need to make those two DMFs take an IQ test. Because if there was a fight you could skip in that card, it was Sterling vs Kattar. Because Holloway vs Gaethje was guaranteed violence

[@atomicmodreviews]

The things he was able to accomplish are mind boggling. He got bored of beating every fighter in his path, so he'd find creative finishes

[@GengoSenmon]

Love his flying armbar sub. Unique legendary move only a flyweight could pull off.

[@RizzyPanda6]

No way thats recency bias, that easily goes down as maybe best KO of all time ever. Certainly the best buzzer beater KO

[@NRC613]

Naw max was winning that fight tho. Yair wasn't vs tkz

[@FNA27601]

Yair was losing the fight and turned it literally on the buzzer while max won all but one round. If we're talking which was the better more badass moment obv max but the better finish given the context was probably the Yair one.

[@Ivan220996]

Yair vs tkz infinitely crazier.... Yair was losing the fight unlike max who dogwalked justin after that kick in rd1...

[@monstermilkman4567]

Yair is crazier based on the fashion he did it, but Holloway’s win is crazy considering he did it against the most violent man in ufc. So it’s hard to choose for me.

[@ThePopeOfAllDope]

Yair and it’s not even close imo. That doesn’t diminish max’ performance, but just speaks volumes on el pantera’s finish.

[@kampretman]

BOTH Max and Justin deserve this praise. Thanks for keeping this memory alive.

[@CoryBro]

Jus when u think this channel is a bunch of blokes.. these guys actually r commentary for fights

[@random__joe]

That surprised me too!!

[@224L]

Tbh they are very knowledgeable of the sport and its history, their only problem is when they have live debates they get too opinionated and it turns into a petty squabble.

[@TheMMAKasual]

@@224Lsounds like you just described the ufcs commentary

[@224L]

@@TheMMAKasual yes except the UFC commentary is better at not showing their frustrations with each other. Unlike conventional media these guys are having a genuine conversation which is good because you get their raw emotions instead of a prescripted debate, but like I said sometimes they let it get the best of them and can’t focus on moving past the disagreement

[@6tiple6ix6afia]

@MMAOnPoint Ok? Then why is Holloway on here? There was two seconds left. Obviously you have to include Holloway because you know it will be the difference in a massive amount of views, but why cherry pick which times you want to be "specific"?

i watched that last fight while everyone was asleep, screaming at the top of my lungs in silence

[@TheElbowMerchant]

As much as I love TKZ and wanted him to get the W against Yair, that elbow was one of the single greatest KO's in UFC history. I'm an elbow aficionado, and I've never seen one quite like that. It's a toss up between Yair's ducking/backwards elbow and Anderson Silva's upwards cross-body elbow against Tony Fryklund in Cage Rage for most insane elbow finishers in MMA history.

[@nycitylifeandhistory]

Melinda Fabian going into the Benitez fights had 4 wins all submissions which is why she was introduced as a submission specialist

[@chgakiyx]

Max having the biggest offering in the Grandest stage of all UFC

[@iAnorak]

the craziest thing for me is that fighting is muscle memory, its pretty much your training at work. which means yair had to train that move and in the time of need, have the awareness to pull it off. that is actually crazy, considering its highly doubtful hes practicing that move that often.
