Caceres the underground legend. Respect. Can't wait to see Giga fight again! Luck to you brotha 👊

[@uniqueusername22337]

His mindset would help so many people. They become attached to a result instead of enjoying the dance

[@sufiadha6171]

I love the way he answers questions you can tell he is genuine hope he succeeds

[@paulbrasfield1594]

You just gotta love this guy

[@habowtat3576]

Im such a big fan of Alex. Never a dull moment in his fights. Very thoughtful and graceful. Looking forward to his fight

[@rawbeejay]

Some featherweight OG's on this card. Holloway, Zombie, Bruce Leeroy, and Giga.. if Zabit made a comeback that would be sick

"It's about the treasures I can possess." - Dude, that's so deep /s

[@lukegraham5105]

Alex is WITHOUT A DOUBT......the most real dude in the UFC! Would love to sit and talk with him for an hour....the guy is a real human and a legit top notch martial artist!

[@femteezy1992]

New fav fighter

[@Sourcepowa]

Bruce Leeroy ! My favourite UFC Vegan !!

[@mma4pay97]

Imagine how much better he could be with actually game planning and film study???

[@savagemike7741]

That goes against his whole purpose

[@VentusZero]

this guy is what he says, me and my buddy asked to hit pads and light spar with him and he was down and just talked to us about pure martial arts, really cool to experience

[@pedrowoolson4273]

Feels like Giga is underestimating Bruce Leeroy... big big mistake if that's the case. I think the best Giga probably wins if he shows up, but Caceres is a tough SOB with some serious tricks up his sleeve. This is a fun card

[@Selv4_]

Lets go Bruce Leeroy, so glad to see him climb up again

[@ILoveGaza77]

One of my favorite fighters 😊I love his fighting style; personality and he gives it all in each fight 👊true MMA fighter.

[@Darksagan]

Damn that is a very hard fight but rooting for Alex.

[@JM-bx2vg]

Hard striking match, he gets giga to floor going to be easy work, giga grappling and takedown definitely is trash so shouldn't take him too much to do it.

@@giorgicolibraa3104 Because caceres didn't use his grappling I clearly said hard striking match next time comprehend before responding it helps 💯

This is his chance to get up the rankings

Respect Bruce 🙏🏼

[@MoshJunkie426]

Good guy Bruce Leeroy always a fan

[@VentusZero]

hes the most genuine guy on the roster, absolutely amazing man

[@jonathanjones6665]

I like Alex but I think him saying he never watches tape of his opponent until fight week. This is a HUGE mistake fighters make. Think of your favorite champion and you will see they all watch hours of tape and aren’t afraid to say so.

[@TheFBM2011]

Well Terrance Crawford watch little to no tapes 🙄wow

[@paulbrasfield1594]

@@TheFBM2011 because if you're a great boxer..you're a great boxer period. There's only two weapons...2 fists. I'm sure you would agree MMA is very different...I believe you must watch tape.

[@betgazal]

it could be that his coaches do all the tape watching, and just translate it into his training

[@Cxmplex_Cxrtex]

​@@betgazalCorrect. It's more common that coaches & training partners watch tape & translate it into training & sparring. The majority of fighters just want to focus on training & cutting weight. Camps keep pressure off of their fighters & cover all the details outside of their training typically.

[@pauljones772]

Captain jack depp of the fight game, just became a fan.

[@joelm.650]

love watching this dude fight, nervous about gigas comeback but home leeroy can get it done

[@Fran28.]

Alex.. got asked the same question worded differently multiple times...LOL this man shows how patience he is..I love how he said " Once again I love martial arts, I do what I love!" Made those reporters feel stupid..😂😂

Homie doing too many mushrooms

Marveilosa...Very OSSA to Caceres!! hand-down from Bruce LEE's thought

[@ifgwelf]

See this guy pulling off an upset

[@junipersnow1]

Would love to see Caceres fight more often. Almost seems a little bored of MMA?

[@barettruth9482]

I love Alex but tha I love doing it not watching it, is why he ain't a master of his own craft. That's like Peyton Manning saying he love playing football/qb but don't watch film or even like to study it. Whaaaaaaaa lol but much love mang

[@XII.XXI.LXXXIV.]

I'll have what he's Smoking Please.

[@jacoblee7226]

He needs nedia training

[@EvFour]

I believe in my boy Bruce lee

[@jellybaby9630]

Bruce Leeroy

[@iNamaste]

Caceres, your ego needs a complete overhaul. Your tone and attitude do not reflect the persona in which you portray and it can easily be seen right through. If you're really trying to be about that life, achieve satori, & be a master you will fail every time with your current mindset. I was big on him to win before watching this but hearing him speak was extremely discouraging. Giga is clear, focused, calm and collected, exactly what Alex is hoping to be one day. Good luck tomorrow kid, I'm still rooting for you.

[@timothywalsh6410]

Maybe you know something greater than most people here ...OR... you haven't been listening very astutely. But regardless, we're all rooting for you. Check, check, is this mic on?

[@iNamaste]

@@timothywalsh6410 Maybe he showed his true colors Saturday morning in the cage

[@timothywalsh6410]

@@iNamaste I'll hazard a guess you're implying that the result of the fight is a clear demonstration of each fighters' "true colors". By that logic, Chikadze was showing his "true colors" in his previous fight with Kattar (it was a sh*t-kicking). I propose that 'failure' (especially a single result) is not the same as showing one's 'true colors', rather it is ones' 'true colors' that will be potentially on display regardless of success or failure.

[@iNamaste]

@@timothywalsh6410 Yes sir, you are correct, however that same logic has to be applied to Gigas "last fight" which is now Caceres. Since Caceres also quoted Alan Watts in this interview, I feel its only proper i answer back with an Alan Watts quote as well. "It starts now, it didn’t begin in the past, there was no past. See if the universe began in the past, when that happened it was now. See? But it’s still now. The universe is still beginning now and it’s trailing off like the wake of a ship from now. When that wake of the ship fades out, so does the past. You can look back there to explain things, but the explanation disappears. You’ll never find it there. Things are not explained by the past, they are explained by what happens now. That creates the past and it begins here. That is the birth of responsibility. Otherwise, you can always look over your shoulder and say, well I am the way I am because my mother dropped me.”

This man has really come into his own last few years

Bruce lee Roy let's fucking go

[@bruceleemuhammadali]

Crazy. Been watching BLR for years! I still always view him as the young kid he once was. This man’s a VET and been in there with some killers over many different eras of the UFC
