A UFC Casual's Guide to the Heavyweight Division

[@timdoeswell]

I'll never tire of seeing Ngannou turn Overeem's head into a horsemeat Pez dispenser.

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Doesn't get old thats for sure

[@DAVINCI85-i4h]

😂😂I was like Overeem may never walk again when doctors where attending to him....

[@dylanbsll6342]

@@DAVINCI85-i4h i was more thinking he’d never breathe again that was a scary knockout for sure

[@ethanhawkins3391]

Really enjoy this series! These contemporary division recaps are needed with how fast MMA has been moving these past few years

[@alexsalcido679]

Lovin these causal guide videos everything flowing so well in these videos keep it up bro

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Appreciate the love

[@antoniomartialarts]

guys dont click off tha vid Leo got a suprise at the end

[@rustyshaklferd1897]

I love how casual is a derogatory term in mma. If you aren’t a coach, trainer, fighter, or analyst you are a casual. Unless you live with your parents and don’t work and spend all your time analyzing fights, then you’re a fanatic Which is far far worse than being a casual. Fanatical tools.

[@themostdiabolicalhater5986]

Casual is a derogatory term among fans of basically anything. It usually means “person who disagrees with me or doesn’t know literally a single bit of knowledge that I do know” It’s a meaningless word for people on the internet who need to feel better than someone about anything, no matter how inconsequential

[@calvincalvin3132]

only a casual would say this

[@funtv4920]

You forgot to mention Jailton Almeida who is headlining a card after ufc 288 and Sergei Spivak,2 very promising prospects.

[@maestrovonhuge9397]

Not being a dick to your comment, i don't see SS going to far, he'll be one of those guys that won't make the top but will be a good fight for anyone advancing.

[@giovannigiorgio831]

Once Jones retires, I think the Big 3 at HW will be Gane, Pavlovich and Aspinall. I think all of them have a way to beat the others, and they all have unique styles making for interesting matchups. The slick-striking Gane. The powerhouse Pavlovich. The well-rounded, fast Aspinall.

[@smokyondagrass2353]

I hope Jon Jones fights aspinall before he retires, Tommy boy is the only guy I see in heavyweight that moves like Jon Jones but hits harder. Be hella cool to see

[@DAVINCI85-i4h]

Come guys let's share these videos.... This fantastic work deserves way more subscribers

[@jacobking962]

The amount of disrespect stipe gets is so fucking ridiculous. He beat Francis on a 4 week camp while he was still fighting fires. He was a part time cage fighter, full time fire fighter and he DOMINATED that fight.

[@ferrm1992]

Agreed. A healthy Aspinall is the toughest guy (not counting Jones). Young, very well-rounded, and has never been knocked out (Blaydes’ was a TKO due to a knee injury not a strict KO)

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Very excited to see him come back, looks like him vs tybura for July. If hes as good as he was pre-injury then for me he absolutely takes the belt.

[@ferrm1992]

@@LeoCooperMMA he should fight Tai or Derrick at this point honestly, but glad he’s back

[@Jake-qf9kk]

Yesssss, been waiting on this lesgoo

[@matz4k]

Nice one! Can't wait for JBJ's next fight, even though it might be his last.

[@theequinoxed9682]

I just hope it isnt against a stipe

[@PrimeTime021825]

Damn left my boy DC title defense out. Love the videos tho.

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Wow i don't know how i missed that, apologies! Glad you enjoyed though

[@maestrovonhuge9397]

Dude, 10/10 for using the worst word KZbin UFC comment section has and having a laugh.

[@aidanwilliams7659]

yo man these videos are crazy good, do you think you could do a lil video explaining the odds like when a fighter is +170 or -200 whatever

[@nightfire7335]

Love the videos! Heres some feedback. Slow down a little man you are flying through the timeline of fights and events. I think a little bit more time spent on each champion and their reign/storylines would go a long way. These videos should be 12-13mins long as anything over 10min receives a large boost in the youtube algorithm. The extra 4-5 mins would add a lot to these videos. Additionally I think a transition graphic of a literal timeline would look super nice and clean with the format you do these videos in. Graphics go a long way. Much love.

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Thank you for the advice my man! I've considered making them longer - im still trying to find the right balance between simpilcity for new MMA fans and a bit more depth. The timeline is a great idea, graphics arent something im familar with though so ill look into it. Appreciate the love

[@CSCsports]

Great series brother - content is 10/10!!!

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Thank you mate

[@opticalcanine]

Stipe is a legend for sure, but Jones coming back to just beat gane and stipe then retiring is lame af

[@leomessicolorado]

You forgot to mention Jailton Almeida

[@Wombola]

ayyyy leo, i just wana go to bed but u put this out. now I'm up for another 10 minutes man, and it's all you!

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Apologies hahahah, hope you enjoy it!

[@Wombola]

@@LeoCooperMMA No worries, it was another banger.

[@owaisal-rawi2090]

Another great video Leo , that tai video will never not make me laugh lol

[@roofusteinthatsmynamedontw2798]

nah the end had me dying

[@Dolfinius]

0/10 didnt show Stipe's victory jig 😢

[@naweed.sharifi]

Most underrated MMA youtuber!

[@LeoCooperMMA]

That means so much, thank you

[@rebafenyi6270]

Pls make women's division breakdown

[@StJ-dt1xn]

you should talk about Spivak & Almeida instead of Tai

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Both great fighters, spivaks done especially well since the Aspinall loss!

[@Crego_]

Another banger

[@LeoCooperMMA]

[@Eight_of_March]

Super video, but Sergey has a streak of six first round knockouts

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Apologies, wrote and recorded the video before the Blaydes fight!

[@riichobamin7612]

Do the knockout rates increase (on average) as we go up the weight classes ?

[@Mahdi_Amine]

Isn't stipe australian ???

[@courtcaseindacut]

"the American stipe miocic"

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Hes American and Croatian if im not mistaken

[@jayclipz3490]

SHAME FRANCIS RATHER SHADOWBOX THEN FIGHT JONS

[@andrewmaddix1999]

First comment booohyaaa

[@johngotti3487]

NO we gotta stop making these 🤣 it makes the casual viewer use this as a debate in something they don’t know absolutely anything about other than what another person said lmao they base their opinions off others thoughts thinking it makes their debate valid. It’s like driving for dummies, then the person that read the book critiques your parallel parking 😂

[@LeoCooperMMA]

Well i try to keep most of the content purely factual in this series, hence the history recap portion, i see it as a good way to get a good idea of the sport without going to crazy into it!

[@samuelhong4272]

Imagine gate keeping a sport

[@YankeeFlamee]

Another great video
