We need more guys like Josh Emmett in the sport. Total killers, respectable demeanor, well spoken and honest. There are too many Covington clown-show types running around in this business and it's just an embarrassment to this great sport.

[@mindblown42069]

So happy for Josh. He’s had a few set backs in his career, but he keeps coming back stronger. Nice guy too.

[@groundscum4-ps4pd]

Dude has been an absolute tank for quite awhile. Glad to see him rebound cuz this year was definitely not kind to him. The way he conducts himself is pure class & I wish him well.

[@Jrm__15]

Met Josh a while back at an open workout, gave me one of his shirts and took a selfie with me. Standup guy, glad he got the W before the holidays.

You've got to give it to Emmett. Fought 3 times this year and 2/3 of them contained some nasty damage to Josh where, unlike the Yair fight, the Topuria fight was almost totally one sided. He showed championship heart and determination to finish up the year strong while having risked his spot to fight a lower, hungry contender like Bryce (who deserves a world of respect as well for stepping up on short notice to give Emmett the chance to fight).

[@Quiron1985]

I'm so happy for him. Had a couple of losses, so to end the year like this must be such a weight lifted of his shoulders. Glad he's back on track, because I really like the guy.

[@handsolo1546]

That was a big ko. I was a bit worried Bryce wasn't going to wakeup. I dont remember the last time i saw a guy with that much punching power at 145

[@KINGSOP2000]

Coldest Knock out I’ve seen ever honestly. I’m stunned to this day

[@joernone]

Much respect to Josh. His competitive maturity ruled the moment.

[@Slightly_JD]

Josh knows what it’s like getting brutally knocked out. Jeremy Stephans broke Josh’s orbital bone and and knocked him out

[@mitweakz866]

Josh is a true gentleman and scary fighter.... A professional, it's a dangerous sport.

[@dustinkilburn]

Dude is always pretty wholesome despite being a demon in the cage. That KO was honestly very scary to watch.

[@javiercalzadillarios280]

So many fans said that Josh was too old to R&R when Topuria beat him, but he is too young to die .( Jethro Tull )

[@OlajuwonDR34M]

Lightin em up in Winnipeg!! Been a fan ever since! So easy to be a fan of Josh's, class act! Look forward to the next one man, congrats on another first round KO!!

[@combatcritique]

KO of the year or what!? 🔥💯

[@bigbearlifememories]

I wanna see him become Champ let’s go Josh 🤜

[@DarkMagician-105]

😂 I was surprised how far of an underdog the bookies had Josh. Nice return 😊

[@mattv8434]

Great interview, solid guy. Thank you.

[@scooter313]

Thank you for not following up with another punch in the moment. Cheers to your win. God bless you.
