Fight Night: Jai Opetaia vs Jordan Thompson (Behind The Scenes)

[@meaz7216]

Opetaia is not normal and i say that in the best possible way! Killer instincts tuned to the max. Also dont stop doing those behind the scenes love em!!

[@samstapes7471]

Dude won the belt with his jaw hanging off his face, killer for sure

[@paulbowman1762]

I'll be following JAI from now on ! This lad has got something ! Goodluck mate👍🥊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@Tuna685]

Love Jai's demeanour. Just a cold approach to everything. So proud

[@O9472_]

Truth! Just a down to earth genuine guy. Beast in the ring too 🎉

[@danielday3374]

Opetaia is an absolute unit

[@sallyjoyce8690]

Imagine what he’s going to be like at the peak of his power. Breidis is going to face a different animal than the one he lost his belt to. (If they meet again).

[@williamteo4941]

Best of the World 💯🇼🇸 Jai always hungry every fight!

[@neladarvish]

This edit had a big impact, showing fighters in vulnerable moments in the locker room and capturing their experiences in the corner and the ring. The editing should aim for consistent remarkable results, as it gave a spine-tingling feeling during the main event. It's important to recognize that Opetaia is not just skilled in boxing, but his strong mental focus and determination make him a formidable opponent when in the zone. He's not just a skilled boxer, he's a FIGHTER! Respectt

[@gabrielinting6112]

Jai is THE TOUGHEST boxing champ we have today. Went to War with a beast in Briedis and won with his jaw hanging from his face. Legendary start of his champ career. Can’t wait to see more.

[@ytee440]

Eddie Hearn signed Jai just to set this fight up so Uk can try take the belts but it backed fired, there’s levels!😂😂 no one can mess with the uso! JAI 🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸🇼🇸 685!!! CHEEEEHOOO

[@Metalphan1990]

No he didn't. There were 3 opponents that were supposed to face Jai before Jordan Thompson. Masternak, Riakporhe and Breidis. All of those fighters are signed with Matchroom rivals. Hearn would have been left with nothing but his dick in his hand if Jai lost.

[@Airyed]

​@@Metalphan1990thank you Boxxer should be getting criticism for messing the whole division around

[@uchlisters2430]

Not true !!!!!!

[@peternut358]

100% they thought Jai would lose. Jai needs to be careful with Hearn

[@Yongs17]

💯 eddie tried his best😂😂😂

[@Richard.Cameron]

Always knew this was too soon for JT, from life and death with Vasil Ducar (a good learning fight) to jumping in with the top dog of the division...LEVELS! He was a work in progress that should've been guided down the old-fashioned domestic route, poor match-making imo. And that blood-curdling scream by his mother was heartbreaking, can only imagine how horrific it was for her seeing her son get pummelled like that. As for Opetaia...a pure beast that's on a mission to kick some serious ass, great fighter. 👏🏼👏🏼

[@Yongs17]

Only saying this after he got his ass whipped.

[@johnconstant9494]

Man that camera work and music during opetaia vs Jordan was like a movie bro 😂

[@faamanulefuahytongue2036]

There is no fear in this Opetaias eyes. He is like a warrior on a mission to be the greatest ,to be on top, and if thats a mindset of this young man, nothing will stand in his way. NOTHING ..well done Opetaia. May God be with you all the way.and never forget that. Aua nei galo le ana le malosi ma mea uma. Faamanuia le Atua i au tapenaga i soo se taimi.👏

[@sallyjoyce8690]

After the baptism of fire that was his title win, nothing and no one will scare this man.

[@kamakoa]

Congratulations cheehoohoooo let's go Jai Opetaia yessah

[@MaxMillion-yv8ib]

After the 3rd round Jordan's corner should have thrown in the towel. It was awful to watch. Imagine his own family sitting there egging him on like he had anything of substance to give, he was way out of his depth and shouldn't have been sent into the 4th.

[@wolfgangvonuce9803]

he pretty much got bashed back to his stool😫agree corner or ref should of intervened,poor guy took unnecessary punishment

[@Neeks828]

When sims keeps telling him to roll off the shoulder every break you know you need a new cornerman lol esp when jai walks into the changing rooms and says “he was so hesitant with his shoulder roll so I just moved” 😂 damn bruh levels to this 💪🏽

[@danjorgensen9563]

Thank you, for the behind the scenes view. If every event has this the viewership should increase 10 fold.

[@HenryKing679]

Jai Opetaia the new DESTROYER in Cruiser Weight Boxing,it doesnt matter if the oppenant is like goliath they all fall like an empire🤜🤛.Well done Uso.

[@dynamadnessadventures205]

Well done jai well done

[@Tennyhu]

Cant wait to see more of Opetia

[@rickisunak]

Looked like a bad mismatch before and it truly was, which Matchroom rarely do! Suppose he dared to be great but that was brutal, Jai is a dangerous, dangerous man.

[@Samual_33]

Was brutal you could see Jordan was out of it sitting in the corner after round 1 he was finished from the straight left that done his nose fight should have been stopped there and then.

[@lahaes]

Jai has killer instincts and tough as a brick shet house

[@TheGamingTubies]

Opetaia is a different kind of animal. I hope Thompson comes back better and stronger!

[@Abcjeisjsbwjwkki]

Wow...nice behind the scenes, keep it coming... felt like I was watching a movie of a Solid storyline...

Amazing work Jai / shame that my DAZN subscription here in NZ would NOT let me know watch this fight !!?? WAKE UP DAZN!

[@Tuna685]

Gave us the weigh-in and not the fight smh

[@garygraham2934]

Aussie! I don't think Eddy realised how good Jai is. Briedis is a great fighter and Jai took him. Opetaia & Timmy Tszyu - not a bad double! Go Oz!!! 👏👊👍

[@uchlisters2430]

Bredis almost killed him too and he is shying away from a rematch with him

[@REALISTOGEE]

​@@uchlisters2430wtf you on about yes his jaw was broken but he still won a ud at the end

[@jas_mf2352]

@@uchlisters2430hater lol man fought with a broken jaw in the early rounds & still one😂😂😂

[@JohnnyKreed]

The world knows nothing about Samoans. We dont have PS4/XBOX, Gyms, playgrounds all that fancy stuff.....what we do have is a rugby ball, boxing gloves, volleyball etc, all hands on sports.... so its implanted in our DNA, and train like Spartans from a young age, and if we dont make it our children just happened to dominate what ever sports they on. Tuilagi brothers, Savea brothers, David Tua, Mark Hunt, Ray Sefo, Joseph Parker, Jai Opetaia, Toa Samoa, now we starting to dominate the weight lifting at the OLYMPICS as well 😂😂 so weights in the mix now...... 685 to world baby!!!

[@Brett-604]

Well done Jai

[@that682kid.C]

Only way jai is going out is in a body bag hes hungry an was born for this 💯

[@uce1090]

Music in the back ground Reminds me of the scene in the movie Troy, when Achilles killed Hector and dragged him in front of his family. Jai a baddd MF!

[@montys420-]

[@nikaiyagraham5866]

He will dominate breddis in rematch

[@Yongs17]

Already proved bredis is not on his level. Jay outboxed him the whole fight, even with a broken jaw round 3 and a sore shoulder going into the fight. Jais 💯 now and will murder him@

[@kalolosene9003]

Discipline brother🙏 I know boxing is very challenging when the audience is not in your favor. Dont let yourself down because of them just keep your momentum positive. Alofa atu

[@SamA-k8v]

This reminds in David Tua and Shane Cameron so much hype New Zealand called “fight of the century”and it was total different class. Shane got KO 2nd round..

[@daweilee1986]

Thompson being 6'7 good looking and mixed race has everything going for him, and as a result has become a smug, cocky bastard and he got a humbling defeat there. Lets see if theres any substance to him and if he can come back and make something of his career. Way undermatched prior to this fight and then way overmatched in it, typical of Hearn, he doesn't know how to build a champion and always throws his fighters in the deep end

[@SamA-e4s]

That a roar lion with someone to devour 🤛🏼🤜🏼

[@barryharry7945]

I understand he was the away fighter but where was the behind the scenes footage of Opitaia? We saw more on the broadcast

[@steelcurtain402]

This uso is on a mission .. strictly business ! Get your bread Jai

[@vaa7514]

Jai still got plenty of gas. Almost look like he's just warming up.

What a mismatch ? It was like Jai was fighting the bum of the month

[@jasperpearce8316]

Jai is ice cold. Knowone is gonna want this smoke.

[@peternut358]

Bad Bad Man

[@patrickokotai6276]

Thompson will never be the same again. That fight went on too long and he didnt get punished he literally got raped. His corner werent looking after his best interest to throw towel and fight another day. These sort of fights destroy fighters mentality.

[@Yongs17]

Rapped hard😂😂😂

[@Toa707]

Anyone know the name to Jai’s entrance song?

[@rickautor7830]

Hey canelo .

Can imagine Thompson dad was one of them annoying parents undermining the coaches as a kid ! So annoying my nephew is a good level junior amateur and so cringe and embarrassing when you have parents trying to over rule the coaches outside the ropes with there words if wisdom.

[@johnoneill7947]

Must be a bit soul destroying to have those uplifting inspiring moments with God but then go out and get smashed.

[@creator6182]

God couldn't make the fight he was too busy giving the go ahead to allow the government to raise interest rates 😂

[@kalolosene9003]

This is nothing to do with God, we are all being judge equally by his righteousness. As the saying in the bible "You rip what you sow" which determined the result that night. Jordan was lack in experience in the amateur category...should have gone for 3 or 4 fights before Jai. So doesn't mean you asked God for favor will definitely get what you are ask for.

[@Yongs17]

Jordans dad in the crowd 'knock him out'😂 whata joker.

[@p4pking.]

😳 what a scream , maybe use shouldn’t show immediate family members in the taping. Seeing his mum scream like that was just shocking, felt sorry for her.
