[@FZappa20]

I am very happy for this wonderful man being interviewed.

[@craigschmidt4133]

For a fighter Vicente has no ego. Super class act

[@UnplugFromDeception]

💯

[@pabloqp7929]

Such a cool guy, rooting for him from Spain

[@albsure4832]

Such a stand up dude

[@warrendunn4276]

Vicente and Buckley should be the main event.

[@UnplugFromDeception]

This dude is a class act. Solid fighter too.

[@blayz108]

“Birth state bout” is a wild phrase

[@fiselled]

he was born in NJ it makes sense

[@bingusman69]

your threshold for "wild" phrases is absurdly low

[@itmghtgtdrk]

Not as wild as "birthday suit bout!"

[@bebhinnmagee2101]

man i love this guy

[@bobspijkermans8653]

Lets gooooo Luque my mannn

[@N1CH0LAS007]

The silent assassin returns lets goooooo Luque 🥷🏼🥊⚡

[@andrefilismissingtooth]

anyone notice it says “blanchield”?

[@shawnermcgregor]

Nice catch lol hilarious

[@andrefilismissingtooth]

@@shawnermcgregor Thanks man. Surprised they didn't catch that lmao

[@SeanstrickIandvswomensmma]

Lets go luque

[@FZappa20]

69 thumbs for Luque!

[@itmghtgtdrk]

Hear, hear!

[@msv-yu9ui]

So glad he finally gets a fight, after his previous fights ended up not happening for reasons outside of his control

[@RealSportsBetPicks]

Did he just say he's going to get the knockout All right? Let me gamble on this submission

[@hecberm2707]

Let's goo luque!

[@agustasugiarto2943]

The crimson chin himself

[@bingusman69]

lots of MFers forgetting that this dude constantly finds ways to win and Buckley often finds ways to lose

[@shawnermcgregor]

Let the fools drive the line up. Even money at this point. I'm hoping to get some dog money on luque. Hes got this in the bag 💰

[@relaxntakecare3438]

Buckley is on a run 😮😮​@@shawnermcgregor

[@tristanlyons2883]

Anyone notice the Blanchfiekd misspelling in the backdrop , or should I say blanch-ield

[@marcusmustard8285]

The first question wtf? ‘If at all frustrating’ of course it is fucking frustrating. Wtf?!?

[@Todd-me8hg]

265plus division 🙏 Mijain Lopez vs Jerrell Miller

[@marcusmustard8285]

@ 7:25 wtf is the reporter promoting a sean brady fight for? This is an atlantic city press conference. Promote atlantic city fight night. Also, no one gives a fuck about UFC brazil. Ask about that after the fight. No one is asking about super bowl 2026. No one is asking about world series 2027.

[@dannytran1587]

chill dude

[@SportsFanaticGibbs]

i did a breakdown for this card and i picked Vicente but im starting to have Doubts about it.

[@JR-xi8wy]

Yeah, it's 50/50. A lot of factors involved. Live bet after 1st round could be smart.

[@SportsFanaticGibbs]

@@JR-xi8wy great idea brotha that’s how i’ll play it ! enjoy the fights

[@JR-xi8wy]

@@SportsFanaticGibbs Likewise brother. I love the way you breakdown the fights!

[@SportsFanaticGibbs]

@@JR-xi8wy aye! appreciate that! 🙏

[@wideopenthrottl]

I hope his brain is fully healed.

[@Itssofla]

Bro said no to Randy brown 👀

[@fiselled]

he already beat randy brown up a few years ago, not a good fight for brown

[@bobspijkermans8653]

He already smoked randy brown and DAMN what a knockout

[@Itssofla]

@@bobspijkermans8653 so why not take the easy money and fight the guy you already beat? He said no and took the less dangerous person

[@bobspijkermans8653]

@@Itssofla yeahh guess your right about the easy money part because i dont like the buckley matchup either it should be top 10 opponents for Vicente💪🏻but buckley is for sure more dangerous than randy brown mannnnn

[@DjangoPorter]

bkah bkh

[@DixonButts-69]

Luques chin is compromised i think Buckley will get a highlight KO 😂

[@LostPrefect]

cope natan levy

[@shawnermcgregor]

Put your money on it then. Drive that line up

[@dannytran1587]

@@shawnermcgregorlol

[@shawnermcgregor]

@@dannytran1587 some highlight ko...looked rigged AF to me. Enjoy that "sport" I'm good. Like watching WWE at this point. Grown ass men playing pretend and you tune in for it. No thanks 🤣
