I love it... So relatable to all of us struggling..

[@javiervenegas6714]

Rooting for Ortega, but I feel like he’s done with 145 and wants to go up.and Lopes is young and hungry. May the best man win

[@dw2367]

anyone hear a style and cadence of speaking of Tony Ferguson?

[@StephenRoss-po1rp]

After you said it yes

[@user-br5rz4cb3f]

Yeah , but much more aware than good old Tony...

[@silversharkc4666]

Big fan of Brian as a fighter and a man.

[@kangaroojack7678]

Brian is focused tuff and is going to whip some as s with Diego

I like him so much more after his last fight and this interview

[@prod.bymobinnn4625]

Brian 'No Comment' Ortega. Continues to comment on how either him or brendan slammed Shia LaBeouf on a table

Holloway is the most likable guy but Brian is right up there! Great guy!

If the fight is half as good as that Purge walkout story we should be in for a treat!

6:39 crazy how the HOLY SPIRIT can put so many people on the same page. I’ve said this so many times in the past few years

[@MrSefiroh]

Religion isn't real tho. Puts people on the same page but doesn't do anything to help them. 🤷‍♂️

[@GamesWithBrainz]

Lopes hype train getting (temporarily) derailed 💪🦅

[@Fitkid7672]

Idk man. This will be a scrap

[@ugene77]

I like Brian a lot, but being a Christian isn't about fighting yourself, it's about faith and letting God fight your battles for you. Never forget we are nothing without him.

Kron Garcie vibes

[@user-br5rz4cb3f]

Tracy Cortez is probably a fine girl...but 1 minute on the beach in Brasil, Colombia etc and there are hundreds of equally good looking ladies... not corrupted by the usa mindset... Go south Brian and find your self a worthy lady...

[@TacoGrande007]

Brian Ortega is going to take Diego to Taco-City.

I hope he doesn't go the Diego Sanchez route , and give all his life , money , away to the church/cult he pledged 100,000. too... May the best man win...
