Imagine giving a sloppy last second brawl the knockout of the year. He didn't knock justice out until they both agreed to swing random punches. But when he got his ass knocked out it was because T set him up with technicality not no random ass punch.

@MainPrism You're too dumb to understand a simple comment. First, I love poirier. Second, I'm talking about his KO against Saint Denis (which shouldnt be in the conversion of the Ko of the year) not the fact that he's being part of the video.

[@MainPrism]

@@samirsolai7579 it's called context genius. You literally said in black and white he shouldn't be in the convo at all. What do the context clues from that tell us? Yeah that you're the dips!t and don't know how to speak.

I'd say that Mahkachev knocking out Volk at his natural weight was more impressive than Topuria knocking him out. You just don't fight so soon after moving back down, if you understand the implications of doing so.

[@getaforeheadreduction6017]

Volk fought Islam on short notice 2 weeks notice if I remember correctly so its not like Islam fought the best version of volk either

I have zero experience in editing or doing thumbnails, however I am more qualified then whoever is doing them right now though and would like to apply for the job. All you have to do is add a picture of chael, DC, and their guest if they have one so we know just by the thumbnail it’s their video. So many times I think this is just a normal espn show and not good guy/bad guy.

Love DC and DP. You guys are awesome. ❤

3:03 little details like this is what makes this sport unlike anything else ARE U MAD … so while the show is unfolding the last fight will be influenced by Pereira being extremely observant and then using that against his opponent… little things like this we think can’t make no difference but it does. Look what Buckley used to his advantage… Wonderboy’s KZbin breakdowns 🤯

If by sheer observation you don't see the BMF KO as a KO of all time then you're trolling. That buzzer beating KO was between guys who had respect, committed to produce a true fight. A one of a kind thing so far. Easy pick.

I like how instant you seen him get ticked at the painted nail thing lol

Max ko of Justin at UFC 300 was the greatest fight ending ever.

Holloway vs Gaethje was the knockout of the history of the UFC. It was such a sick KO. Holloway being knocked out was more impressive as an accomplishment, but as a KO the Gaethje knockout was a better KO

Max knocking out Justin without a doubt was the greatest K.O I've ever seen in a UFC event because of all of the equating factors. K.O of the year for me for sure.
