@@deadlyfistzzz7815 Facts, you know ✌🏽

[@frosty2.010]

Reasons Gilbert got knocked down by those jabs 1. Kamarus Straight punches 2. Kamarus stance switching 3. Gilbert not setting up his kicks

[@frosty2.010]

@Jacob Alvarez If they suck so much, why don't you fight em?

[@frosty2.010]

If You noticed each time Gilbert got knocked down it was a low kick that he didnt set up, while Kamaru was switching stances confusing gilbert. Before that, everytime Kamaru switched stances, Gilbert reacted to it by resetting. But because Kamaru did it while Gilbert was still kicking, it left Gilbert in a vulnerable position to be hit with a straight right. This is how he got knocked down is his fight against Rashid Magomedov. Gilbert doesn't set up his low kicks.

I like that he, IMO, really hit the nail in the head with his self-assessment.

Still a class act of a fighter. He'll be back.

[@mikechiks983]

The same first round where Burns did good was what led to him getting knocked out. Went in too hard and gassed out. If Burns didn't step forward like he did in the first round, Kamaru would have filled that gap and being ahead. Kamaru also showed that he could make adjustments, even if Burns could go 5 rounds the way he did round 1. Kamaru's striking is also getting better. I think Kamaru wins if they fight again, especially if it's too soon.

[@samoanpride9247]

Wow. Never Never really heard him speak at all. Not just this bout with Usman, but in general and I must admit he truly is a standup guy. You can’t help but to respect and understand why people are drawn to him. This is also a great interview not so much on Brets part but the explanation from Gilbert is good

That would be awesome but he's coming off a loss so they won't match those two together.

You realize that the UFC provides sport psychologist? And most of those dudes work hard on their mental health too.

Gilbert is humble yet powerful and great fighter I hope he gets the belt sometime 💯 his weakness has always been his chin i hope he works on his head movement and defense keeping his chin down

[@jonadams1235]

Many ppl are gonna to forget this man when he beat every1 was on a 5/6 winning before that fight and lost to a guy on a 13 winning streak he is still one of the baddest man in the ufc he will come back

[@yosialin2583]

He is the only one who can beat Usman and Burns would beat everyone in the welterweight division

Love this warrior mentality, some people want to quit after a loss, others want to keep pushing.

@@pakpala1 yeah but this guy means it, most don't and he's not boring to watch you can see how hungry he is. Kamaru is just on another level, that doesn't mean he can't keep blessing us by beating up all the other clowns

Burns vs Colby it would b a savage fight 🔥🔥🔥

[@kingofeverything2159]

I respect Burns but it's funny how things turn around after the fight and you see who's who. He was saying Usman has moments between round where he is looking for Henri to lift him up and go through those walls, but it turns out to be the other way around. Usman is just a tank.

[@kyle9248]

Keep ur head up Gilbert ur a warrior respect

Respect to Burns. Bro took some beating.

[@DavidRivera-is4wp]

Such a humble guy, nothing but respect for that dude can’t wait to see him back in the octagon.

[@mmasuperlore9426]

Bruh I was rooting for Kamaru being that he’s the first African born champion in the ufc. Gilbert wasn’t really on my radar but I knew he was very dangerous. Seeing how he dealt with everything after the fight and even his confidence in the build up of the fight was something to behold. He definitely gained die hard fans In my opinion after this one and I’m definitely one of them.

Brett really the 🐐 man

[@eon001]

Smh these guy's were never friends. I swear lol. Way big difference between team mates and buddies. At least pretend you didn't want to fight Kamaru. He was eager from the beginning. He got what he wanted though.

[@robwaddell99]

Gilbert is chinny and has never responded well to taking a shot. He won't get the strap.

[@tupacshakur4446]

I don’t think he’s chinny, he took some big right hands off Usman and stayed on his feet. I think he’d beat Colby to be honest, Colby doesn’t have the power to hurt Gilbert and could very well get subbed if he wrestles.

[@greatstate58]

Lol no one was saying this before the fight let’s not start now.
