My favorite thing about this podcast is Usman is truly speaking his opinion. Even if he doesnt agree with Henry. They're not just trying to agree with each other. This is a high value part of this podcast format and discussions. It's why I don't listen to the O'malley podcast. I love Tim Welch's wisdom, but I'd rather hear that on Tim's KZbin channel than the podcast where O'Malley isn't sharing his own thoughts and opinions on things and just agreeing with the opinion with everyone around him.

None of you numbnuts even understand anyway - me saying skill-for-skill he is not top 10 doesn't mean he can't win fights or isn't a top 10 fighter overall. It means he is subpar technically and relies on physicality, aggression, and his chin to win fights i.e. he has a definite ceiling on how far he can go, as has been proven in his two title fight loses and again on Saturday.

Max landing that kick and the end of the 1st round changed the whole fight. Justin got caught a few times just like that…ducking to low. He couldn’t fight how he likes to

[@zealpulses3826]

Gaethje fought the same way he always does. Ducks while guarding, ducks blindly throwing wild loopy shots and random doing a rolling thunder lol. That's the reason he lost to Oliveria. Everytime he ducked Oliveria throw a knee to the face. This time Max just did spinning wheel kicks. Same effect. Gaethje has really bad defensive in the striking. Trevor needs to correct that. The jab can only take you so far.

@@zealpulses3826 idk how you can say with a straight face that a broken nose doesn’t affect the fight. No way you’re that dumb. I’m not taking anything away from Max just pointing out when the fight changed.

​@@zealpulses3826 Trevor is such a good coach I'm sure they've gone over that 1million times..... but Gaethje gonna Gaethje when that octagon door closes 😂 It's why people love to watch him fight!

@@InspectorButters4 That's so frustrating lol. Even Sean Strickland doesn't listen to his coach at times. That's why he lost the Cannonier and Dricus fight.

Kamaru your wrong, BMF’S don’t shoot takedowns! This belt is for fighting not cuddling

[@letmegetuhhh3959]

Nobody saying to lay and pray but you gotta mix it up and use the wrestling to set up the striking

[@user-wt4gw2bg6m]

@@letmegetuhhh3959that’s exactly why usman and Henry would never fight for BMF

[@ADU17]

Bro it’s MMA, not kickboxing, that includes grappling 😂, you can definitely be an entertaining grappler and Justin of all people probably would be

[@MimiPipoo]

I think if its very active mix of TD and striking and not holding onto positions with fast scrambles it qualifies.

[@Nathaniel-Sr]

Agreed bro which is why I believe Justin didn't shoot, because it's BMF for a reason.. When the thought of this belt was being pondered, at the time Nate and Jorge were the perfect/idea fighters. No grappling, wrestling, submissions, etc etc, just pure stand-up. They aren't fighting for the actual titles in whatever divisions/weight chosen, they're fighting to prove who's the baddest. Salute to both guys for delivering, and staying true to it.

Great podcast guys! I love how y’all are able to keep it real and respectful. For example when talking about Aljo and his performance yall both stated that the fight wasn’t the most entertaining but y’all gave Aljo credit. Same thing happened throughout with the other fights.

Dang, Kamaru has tons of value-honest, insightful, experienced, relatable..............Oh yeah, you too Henry. lol

Making the excuse that if Justin took him down and ground and pounded him... he has one takedown in the UFC. It was never ever going to happen. May as well put that both ways and say what if Max took Gaethje down..

[@GurgleThaGobbo]

Can't say the eyepokes played any factor when Justin decided to forgo 9+ minutes of recovery time for them.

[@galacticmaui2]

Max isn’t the wrestler Justin is but I really don’t see any reason to believe with conviction that if Justin would have taken Max down Max would have been toast. Between the two Max seems to have the slicker ground game or at least would have just stood up. With that said maybe it could have opened up Max to a big shot.

[@BobSmith-qh1ej]

Exactly man max doesn’t have the career he’s had without a great take down defense. Watch the first 2 volk fights and see how hard it was. To say that Justin 100% could take him down isn’t a for sure thing. Max imposed his best style and obviously had a great game plan for Justin. He didn’t just wing it and bang. Max was prepared it and carried out the game plan to the tee

[@luisromo5251]

Good pod combo got Henry being all rash and usman cooling it down

[@co_snowy]

when Max fights Ilia it won't be for the BMF he doesn't deserve that even with the Volk KO. it'll be for the 145 belt DASSIT

[@zumbaflavor8673]

You guys are takinnnng ovaaaa!! The Best pod cast.

[@112233JORDAN]

Im genuinely curious on Usman's opinion on Trevor's cornering. I feel like at times he is seriously downplaying when his fighter needs to make adjustments, particularly when they are losing. At times, I dont think he's aggressive enough to pump up the fighter and get them on the right pace. I have seen this a few times now, at least. I agree with Usman's talk about the wrestling. Justin shouldve wrestled.

[@MMAOdin]

Funny that toy say that cause ive been saying this exact same thing too. Trevor never seems to have a plan B, when plan A goes right, everything is perfect but as soon as plan A doesnt work, none of his fighters seem to be able to get the fight back in their hands

[@AfroViking300]

Cope harder

[@KyleH1357]

You might be right, but to play devils advocate with Justin in mind, he spent a while getting Justin to calm down and slow down and we’ve seen that can get the best Justin in the fight. Not saying the advice was right per se but I think if he gave Justin a big pump up speech Justin may get a bit reckless as we’ve seen in the past

[@DunjinDragon]

i've noticed this too thanks for pointing this out

[@MimiPipoo]

Holloway TD would have caused Justin to get exhausted and finished earlier if he did that. There's no way in hell Justin would ever be able to hold him down for long if at all not to mention he will never want to do that. Max has always been notorious for good TD and recovery - dude always has popped straight back up.
