[@oggaming7362]

I've watched it many times. I've watched it many times looking at Jamahal. He doesn't miss any beats. In fact, Poatan takes a slight step BACK just after he touches Herb's hand to wave him off from calling a timeout. The two fighters then touch hands and they both begin to do the same thing they'd been doing. Then, 2 seconds after the brief timeout attempt, Poatan pulls Jamahal's lead hand down and fires a left hand and Jamahal tries to fire his own power left, and Poatan slips it as he knocks Jamahal to the ground with his left. There's nothing else at play other than Jamahal was completely outclassed. He has no clue how to strike at Poatan's level. And YOU, Chael, are trying to cope over how hard you tried to promote Jamahal's chances of beating Poatan. You tried to sell those tickets so hard that you believe it yourself, even after his loss. Jamahal never was that great. There was nothing shocking about his loss. There is nothing to talk about, speculate or dissect. Jamahal was never that good, and Poatan is one of the GOATS.

[@seancrowley3142]

Yep, pretty much. Mostly untrained guys like Tuivasa and Hill are good, and they have punchers chance at being champions. Pereira is a professional striker, unlike the amateur Hill. Poatan made it look easy.

[@AshishKP43]

They really did a good job promoting the bs narrative of Hill best striker, I was giving more of a chance to Hill for some indescribable reason. But a KO so early in the round doesn't mean Poatan got lucky, it means Hill wasn't good enough to stand with him any longer, Poatan needed one opening and he capitalised, I'm willing to accept that Hill lost focus, but that's completely on him, resetting the position to reward Hill after he himself hit low is oxymoron personified. But yeah, this is a sport where you can win off eye pokes, so garbage excuses like these are nothing out of the ordinary. wHy diDn'T rEf CaLL tiMeoUt aFteR I LoW BLowEd hIM?

So let me get this straight. Alex gets kicked in the nuts, and somehow hall is the one that loses focus. Alex waves Dean off.

Jamal throws a punch that alex dodges and alex throws a left hook of his own that lands At what point did he lose focus, to me it just seemed like he lost straight up

[@callanc3925]

tbh whether he lost focus or not is irrelevant. He signalled that he was ready to keep fighting. If he got distracted by a big pair of tits in the front row would chael still be saying this? Part of the job of high level athletes is to stay focused on their sport regardless of whats going on around him, and if you cant do that then you shouldnt be fighting at the highest level.

Watch the whole video you bum, hill glances at herb looking for a reset in the action , Alex should’nt be able to push off herb that way controlling the action. Hill disengages , Alex cuts the angle and gets closer .. lights out moments after

[@vishnulalwani5283]

Alex was not moving. That nut kick from Jamal was intentional. It made the knockout even more pleasurable.

[@scottwillie6389]

It is a valid point. I'm not ragging on Dean because it was heat of the moment decision but we can't have Refs saying "break" and then one or the other fighter unilaterally overriding the ref. Jamal did what he was supposed to do and obeyed the Ref and stopped. He's expecting Herb to step in the middle, ask Alex if he's all right, and then restart the action. Instead, Alex suddenly becomes the Ref and unilaterally restarts the action. Alex is dictating all this unusual behavior. Jamal has to react to all the unusual behavior. That gives Alex big advantage. I think Alex wins either way, but it wasn't handled properly and we can't have it working this way moving forward.

[@scottwillie6389]

@@callanc3925 If the Ref stopped the fight because of the big tits, then yes. Herb erred in the way he handled it. If he says stop, the fight should stop and HERB should be the one who restarts it, not Alex. It was not the standard way a stoppage is supposed to work, which is distracting in itself, but worse is the fact Alex was basically dictating the entire sequence which means for Alex he knows exactly what's going on while for Jamal he's like "WTF" and has to react to all this weirdness as it happens. Not the hugest deal in the world, but moving forward we can't allow this type situation to repeat itself because you can easily imagine scenarios where it could unfold far more unfairly than it did here. Jamal was wronged. Certainly not intentionally and not that egregiously and not enough to make a big deal about it. But he was wronged and the Refs should all observe what happened here and resolve not to let it happen again. I bet Herb has already done that in his mind.

Jamahal threw a a straight left before and alex countered with a left hook. He was focused enough the gage distance to know to throw so all this shit about him losing focus is complete bs. He literally threw a punch lmao

[@MrcmeisteR]

Jamahal got countered and shadow realm’d.

[@HELO_sb]

Once again Chael living in an alternative dimension. Jamahal never turn away once.

[@hogleg8103]

Hill made the first move after the break he threw a kick lol sorry but the bad guy is wrong here 😂

[@onE2Omg]

Lmao, a whole video trying to explain why his pick for J Hill was wrong. Here is another idea, Alex is a phenom kickboxer who knocks everyone out and J hill tried to kick box with him. Magic!!!!!!

[@MainCardMinute]

Hot take Jamahal Hill is not a top 5 LHW

[@agoddddz]

Yup

[@joshkaminski6742]

Pereira was beating Hill no matter what 🤣

[@Thekingsson911]

Facts

[@jamisonisonify]

alex definitely took advantage and fought dirty. he took a step closer during timeout, hell he even stepped on hill foot while he punched him to make a glancing blow more effective. and nobody realized hill got robbed. herbs got rules, alex doesn't ignore a ref, herb should have seperated them. this should never happen again. hill aint even trying to say it wasnt fair, or really pointing blame, but he has valid points. thanks chael for being unbiased

[@michaelngosa6423]

I JUST LOVE THESE VIDEOS BY CHAEL............ HE DRIFTS AWAY FROM THE TOPIC TO LIKEN SITUATIONS AND THEN COMES BACK TO HIT THE NAIL BRUTALLY ON THE HEAD🤣🤣🤣

[@TerryJamesCole]

What nail, sounds like an excuse for Jamal getting smoked

[@A1_369-y7l]

@@TerryJamesColeI agree cuz if you ACTUALLY go back and watch you’ll see that there is a lead up to the exchange after the nut shot and to add onto that hill throws his left jab first and Poatan just slips and CRANKS that left

[@GBL99999]

Bro the only thing that got brutally hit on the head is Jamal “I’m being overlooked” Hill and everyone saw what happened it’s pathetic to make lame excuses like this

[@gabrielchaves4822]

They touched gloves and Alex was laser focused so that he didn't even look at the ref. Hill paid the price for it

[@brunovieira2151]

incorreto. The touch gloves just after, and both threw punchs... The difference was hill didnt conected. please dont try to find excuses, it was all Poatan credit and The only reason it happened is because the power of his punches are from another world lol

[@abhivideos101]

A fully focused KEVIN LEE would beat anybody in any weight class

[@weezydoesit9399]

He da GOAT Fo sho

[@GeraltOisac]

DISAGREE BECAUSE JAMAL WAS IN SUCH A GOOD POSITION ALSO THAT HIS DIRECTOR ARRIVED FIRST IN POATAN AND LUCKYLY DIDN'T HIT POATAN. ANALYZE BOTH PUNCHES. JAMAL'S ARRIVES FIRST BUT DOESN'T HIT ALEX. THIS SHOWS THAT JAMAL WAS IN A GOOD POSITION ALSO FAVORABLE TO KNOCK OUT POATAN IF HE LANDED THE PUNCH. SEE THE BID. POATAN WAS A GREAT RISK OF BEING KNOCKED OUT AT THAT MOMENT.

[@michaelngosa6423]

QUOTE OF THE DAY "THEY ARE JUST BALLS, NO BIG DEAL"😅🤣😂

[@mohamedbhorat6007]

He threw an unfocused right hand

[@sosa7794]

Idk, it feels like Alex is miles ahead skillwise

[@keepleft]

He was in the *middle* of a left straight when he got kd'ed. Pls people, don't be stvpid.

[@flodeez1065]

The glove touch before the KO has determined that was a lie! It was obvious Hill did all that barking before the fight because he was scared. Im kinda tired of the sound of his voice already.

[@afarber87]

Hill was distracted with theatrics. Standing at the cage entrance, catching the arrow. Hill wasn’t being present.

[@davidbanner9851]

Chael tells the girl at the optical store “Make the glasses extra loose.. I like to push them up every five seconds”😂

[@SalamiCellar]

Hill wasnt fully focused? Man watched the punch come straight to his face lol

[@akalawada]

If not for the titles, you’d have no idea wtf Uncle Chael is trying to say until halfway through the video

[@Mixed-Media-Arts]

You can't lose what you don't have. Hill wasn't focused before, during or after the fight. He was scared. It's normal to be scared but Jamahal was scared out of his mind. With that said. I don't think a fully focused Hill beats this Pereira.

[@xxgregdjxx]

While Jamahal did get knocked tf out, i think to fight someone like alex you gotta be mad focused on rythm and timing. I think that improper pause from from the kick didn't allow hill to get back into the groove. However alex was still focused because he wanted to keep going. That's where I agree.

[@nickyos8640]

Chael, I agree with you on the loss of focus, that is a very interesting point to bring up. But id like to share my perspective, if you happen to watch the fight again, look at the lead hand battle between them. Pereira and Hill bump gloves in a rhythm, and Pereira lands great shots off of breaking that rhythm . Mainly left jabs to the body to condition Hill to parry low with his lead. When they go back into the fight after the crotch kick, Alex advances, and they continue the hand fighting, bumping lead hands in that rhythm. Pereira is again the one to break that rhythm by feinting a straight right, all while he is holding Hills right glove with that right arm of Hill fully extended. He sort of drops/parries Hills right hand to slip the left hook right over top. I think Pereira is levels above in his game plan, and a lot of that also contributed to Hills loss of focus. From what I have seen, Alex Pereira showed there are levels to his standup that most fighters don't see the full extent of. I may be overthinking things, but I think Alex is very intentional, and it seems to get better with every fight. This is ofc best put on display when Pereira's opponent obliges in keeping the fight on the feet. the Strickland fight was extremely similar to this.

[@knguros9415]

I saw what Alex didn’t with Herb, saw Jamal reaction too, I even saw Alex stepping Jamal’s foot in the knockout, but never saw the change of angle, this is genius from you.

[@ashleydavis7448]

Ok Chael so Hill should of won that fight because he looked away thank you for that insite very insightful

[@LeonardTaylor700]

TITO ORTIZ If your reading this, YOU sir…. TAPPED

[@fofoleveon]

His arrogance made him lose his focus.

[@mashdeegaaaaz6655]

Chael Hill flat out got beat by a better fighter end of story

[@EduPiloni]

I appreciate that point of view, and i do think that partial interruption threw him off guard for a second. But i saw it differently. Pereira saw smt in the position, managed to get him all the way backed close to the cage and could not let the ref call it off right there. He had Hill where he wanted and studied his movements + reactions for 3min. Took a charge forward while grabbing Hill's lead hand down to set up the deadly hook. A thing of beauty!

[@ThePerfectCell01]

I want Alex vs Jon Jones

[@randynichols3056]

Well you are supposed to keep going until the ref stops you and people making excuses for Hill is ridiculous because he was going to lose regardless because he isn’t the same as far as skilled standing so yeah no matter what if he looked away that’s his mistake but of course people will make excuses for him!! Sad

[@Matt-km3po]

I saw fear in JH’s eyes. That’s what I saw.

[@RadamesPrime]

Uncle Chael with the rare L take 😢

[@adharuddinabd.rahman4521]

Mr Sonnen possibly is still hating brazilian fighters as he barely won UFC belt but denied by Anderson Silva

[@ryanwooton2475]

He threw the first fight against Anderson at the end because he knew he was gonna fail the drug test.

[@YAMANKOPER9]

If u watch the fight closely in first 2 mins whenever Hill strikes any combination towards Alex his right dropped on every strike and if I saw it Alex also saw it too so the left hook was always coming
