This whole series truly displays the complete mastermind of a coach Trevor Wittman is. Remarkable.

[@djt8870]

Wittman imo is the best coach in the game.

[@514crypt]

@@djt8870agreed. Him, firas zahabi and winklejon are the top 3 in the game.

Wittman is absolutely incredible... Not just the caoching. the way he talks to you, the way he makes u feel, hes there for you as a mentor not just a coach. Absolute best in the game right now what a pleasure to watch this team.

[@rpo22]

I decided to bet on Justin because of Trevor. I was so sure that they would do the adjustments to get the victory. I was so happy (not only for making money, but also for Justin and Trevor). That's awesome.

[@metalcoremania1]

I don’t think he’s great at in ring adjustments tho but yeah he’s great

[@Lamebred.]

I felt the anxiety through the screen. So much respect for all you guys, absolute warriors. Congratulations to Justin beautifully done.

[@ricardobjj24]

One of the most bad ass head kicks I've ever seen. Just sad that it happened to one of my favorite fighters

[@Hassan-zt8et]

Literally bro. Dustin is my fav fighter but I also love Justin as well he's a stud. I was gonna be gutted to see either lose. Congrats to Justin though happy to see that he's evolved and still the most entertaining fighter. Dustin is a BMF without the belt this fight just didn't play out his way but props to both fighters have a ton of respect for them. Would love to see a trilogy between them.

[@angelyeaa]

Gaethje thanks for what you do! And thanks to your coaches & Terrence for capturing the journey! I was able to cross off a dream on my life bucket list Saturday night. To witness your greatness with my own eyes in person, truly thank you all for an unforgettable night ! SLC, I will never forget!

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

So freaking cool you were able to go there. I was at one UFC fight and it was in Vegas with McGregor/Mendez. It was so freaking awesome. Nothing better than a UFC fight live.

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you so much and is so awesome you were able to experience it live. Cheers!

[@johndeignan2668]

Very smart adjustments in the rematch. Since the first fight, Gaethje has become more defensive and his footwork improved. Very smart to utilize outside leg kicks because Poirier was expecting inside leg kicks. Between the two men, Gaethje was more diverse in the striking, landing body shots and outside leg kicks. That headkick was lethal!

[@codydailey6276]

This has been the coolest shit to watch! Hope you liked SLC and congrats on the win🤘🏽

[@vincentkc48]

This series is incredible. I drove 8 hours last minute to see you fight live. My first time watching you compete and you just show new parts of your game every single outing. Shout out to the team and you Justin! Feel like I was with you in the whole camp due to this series 😂 so shout out to the producers and editors involved 👊 let’s get it champ!!

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

So cool you were there. I was at one UFC fight in Vegas with McGregor/Mendez. One of the best nights ever. There’s nothing better than going to watch the UFC fight especially when it’s a pay-per-view.

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you!! That's awesome you got to experience it live!

[@EloyGabriel_]

Kid from a small town in Arizona realizing his dreams... What more could i ask for as far as inspiration goes. You remind us to keep fighting Justin. LET'S GET THAT TITLE BOY 🏜️

[@polgracia1190]

My favourite fighter, LOVE from Spain, The Highlights!

[@zanderzon]

Greatest episode on this channel. Amazing video 🙏🙌

[@davidaldridge5716]

These have always been edited well …..but it’s on a different level when the stakes are so high and imminent

[@chitownp1noy]

That cross-rear head kick was beautiful. Love that combination. Always knew you were gonna mix it up with your striking! God bless, Justin!

[@Trailblazingg]

First of all I want to say Congrats Justin incredible win! Also whoever is behind this series is a true artist. It was a pleasure to watch seeing all the hard work and dedication that goes into each camp and seeing the comradery between you and your team also kudos to whoever is behind the camera! We ain’t stopping here next stop the real belt.

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you so much, love giving you all an insight on everything that goes into a fight camp. More to come☝

[@khaledsblack3994]

Trevor you are the best coach I ever seen in my life thanks for your efforts . This series are better than Netflix by the way

[@terrencewittman5567]

Wow, thank you so much!

[@lexbraxman9270]

Trevor Whitman always gives me goosebumps. Nothing but respect

[@pf8860]

So happy for you JG, your greatest fight to date. GET THAT BELT. Trevor is a genius, and there might not be a better guy to help you prepare than Usman - what a true friend, can't wait to see him back in the cage.

[@gamebredo8880]

Justin been putting up the best fight vlogs of all time lately no 🧢

[@jasonstermensky3276]

Congratulations Justin. Ty for all the inside content

[@luciofranciscodigiacinti3664]

This series was amazing, what a win for Justn. BMF indeed.

[@user-jv8mg9gi2s]

1:57 Gaethje practicing the headkick that knocked out poirier 🔥🔥

[@subzeromidnight5388]

Those were body kick drills

[@cgtigrad]

@1:56 that combo literally ended the fight. 🤯 I'm a Tucsonan and watch these videos religiously, we love Justin here in Tucson and are so damn proud of what he's done. We went f##king nuts when we saw him finish Dustin and cheered to him and all of the people who make his journey possible with a huge shot of Jack Daniels lol.

[@mikeydoan6]

This is one of if not the best BTS fighter series (to a lead up of a fight). I fucking love it. Well produced.

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you so much🙏🙏

[@hu6284]

This was hype, total professional.

[@alishanaa9943]

Loves these men, the way they both carried themselves after the win/loss is so respectable and admirable

[@sainttrai]

The violins are such a perfect musical choice! These vlogs are literally better than embedded!!

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you so much, very glad you liked them!!

[@warrgoddess8029]

Bro this is like watching a Netflix serie, the editions of the video is amazing

[@terrencewittman5567]

Wow thank you so much!!!

[@lorenzodubon964]

Absolutely one of the best videos I’ve ever seen

[@terrencewittman5567]

Wow thank you!!

[@CheekyElbow]

Coaches in sync with fighters is so raw to watch. There's a few rare combinations in this sport and they usually go on to be champ

[@dannonya8783]

You can't put a price tag on Trevor's coaching. It's from his heart and his soul oh, he loves those guys

[@JDAWG-mu3cn]

Trevor creates the right environment for success. His genuine concern and love for Justin is not something that’s common place in all coach/fighter relationships. Special to see.

[@generalmoralhazard]

Awesome. Just awesome. Well done on the production quality.

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you!!

[@benbutler5156]

Damn these videos are incredible. Such good insight into your training schedule and life, that no other fighters show this well to their fans.

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you so much!

[@JacobSeace-j1v]

Such an incredible job on this series man keep up the great work!

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you🙏🙏

[@mi81tkne47]

This was one of the best episodes of behind the scenes preparation. wow. I would have thought all that working out on fight day would tire you out. Then I noticed he was in the locker room warming up at 7 oclock, man that's 5 hours before the fight, how does that not tire you out? Fight day seems really stressful. You definitely need mental toughness

[@dank7289]

Watched the whole ride and it's just so awesome to see the hard work pay off in the end. I was a little worried because during fight week and seeing Dustin, he looked better then he has ever looked shape wise. So you knew he had put in the work too, and had an amazing weight cut. But damn the timing on that head kick was beautiful and hiding it with the punch!

[@terrencewittman5567]

Thank you for tuning in, lots of more content coming in the future 👍

[@jaydenrichardx]

Congrats on the W! Your evolution as a fighter has been tremendous to watch as a fan

Really enjoyed the Behind the Curtain Series Justin Gaethje, felt like we were together with you on the journey to UFC 291, congratulations on the amazing win 👏👏👏👏

[@cameronscott6044]

I’m glad they started these. I started watching these Road to’s and Behind the Curtains and just started to feel like I knew these guys better. Makes watching the fights way more interesting and intense. I like Dustin and Justin so I would have felt the same no matter who won because I didn’t want either to lose. Both are true fighters and legends in and out of the cage

[@ghettoboydreamsofficial888]

This video kicks ass good job I like to see what these warriors go through just hours and mins and seconds before and after the war. Great job my guy Justin take care of ur self.. thanks bro

[@philliphampton5183]

Had to come back to rewatch it. The sequence of them getting in the cars and getting into the locker room was so goddamn tense. Excellent production

[@mattiafilipponi6070]

Fantastic work! Deserved win justin, we can see how much you put into it, and the series is incredible! Go straight

[@vayahoo]

I'm really glad Justin is releasing these because I despise that all Ali's fighters are ban from Ariel show. Is an excellent platform to see how the fighters feel after the fight and what their though on it. At least we got this so is better than nothing.

[@langtryvlogme]

not a single time thr high kick was spoiled during these episodes

[@rhyscooper6023]

Justin's focus on fight day is top notch. There is a reason he won the way he did. I don't see Justin losing when he fights for the belt.

[@thesatisfiedcustomer4869]

Great series, Justin and his team epitomise everything that is good about MMA.

[@mrc.p8423]

Great series of videos, well done young wittman.

I love the class of both fighters and the closeness of the entire Gaethje Team!

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

When you jumped up at Luke after the KO, that was so joyful to see. All those beatings Luke took. It paid off. Luke is awesome. I was nervous for you watching this video. Even though I already knew the outcome 😂 great quality

[@gibertopasillas3768]

I really like to watch these videos, very inspiring!! Especially when Justin was training in Colorado!! Been a big fan!!!

[@StirMagicc]

The editing is so fire. Did not want it end.

Man, this series was truly a treat to watch. I watched every single one leading up to the fight. The Trevor and Justin combo is legendary! Keep it going, JG!

[@JesseWinford69]

Congratulations i knew it. Your going to be champion again here soon. I believe in you and rooting for you. For the BMF on the planet.

[@JoFeliciano3]

“If you don’t fear it, you don’t love it.” Great quote coach! 🔥🔥🔥

[@JoseMartinez-og2pb]

Underrated videos

[@darrenscriven3963]

Whoever does the camera work, the editing and putting it all together deserves gold medals, absolutely stunning production as always with all the video diaries at all of Justin's performances. It really does show that Justin has a wonderful and loving clan around him. I love the bond between everyone there too, his immediate family and all others there for Justin because everyone just seems to gel so well, which all adds to another reason why Justin has always been my favourite fighter since he joined the UFC. Title next! 👍👍

[@food4Dsou1]

What a journey... what a story... still much more to be written. Congratulations to you and the team! Thank you for the inspiration to give it our all despite our self doubt!

[@bigdaddy6482]

Great ending to an incredible series!!! Hats off to the BMF 🤙🏻

[@cmdub97]

It's so weird seeing Justin on TV and online. I know he's famous and talented, but I struggle to not see him as the humble popular kid who was always kind to even the "little guy." It didn't matter how good he was as a wrestler, he was always humble and I have the utmost respect for him because of that. His character, in conjunction with his fame, is why he has the support of two plus counties in AZ.
