and btw: why does your lips doesnt match your voice ? its okay to bot. everybody does it since chat-g was released. but pls, i dont have a testo filled voice myself. but its so fkn rediculous, your face ( if its you) with that voice that never in the whole life is yours and this bad synchro. if name / face is true, you make yourself a fool for 100 k subs ?you know the only persons, and what those are called, ignoring shame for a low amount of price. specially for the fucked up ufc, with top earning dana whi is an aerobic teacher and also posts faked muscles. but you know what they say about your voice and why they cut off thounges or arms. as soon you fake your voice, you collapse as a person. lemme guess.....100 k subs......jeez, you earn less than other persons who lost their voice. i dont judge you. i did worse. but is it worth it ? and if i already asked....excuse me. i try since month to get a real ufc influencer using simple bots to show how corrupted even the scene arround mma has become. so dont take it personal if i asked u twice ^^

It's notorious that he could regain ridiculous amounts of weight between weight-in and fight night, he said it himself he would enter the cage at 210-219lb when he was at middleweight (185lb), I personally attribute a lot of his KO power to that, he simply was not in the same weight league as the other guys.

[@AbundantMindsetLibrary]

"That dude is made out of Mahogany" 💀

[@KenjiWasTaken]

Hate him or love him, Adesanya is a future HoF possibly Greatest middle weight of all time AND brought the UFC a monster in Alex Poaton Pereira

[@botondbakos5954]

He's not, the greatest is undoubtedly Silva

[@meeksthessj4]

Well said undoubtedly Silva. No question. The dominance is incomparable.

[@thiagofigueiro9745]

L opinion, fam. Adesanya was a good champ at best, but the middleweight goat is Anderson Silva, my man.

[@Freddy-bateria]

Great WORK!!!! can I put some portuguese legend in your video. Here in brazil we will gona love. You are too good, congrats!

[@hardyprado4380]

WHOS HERE AFTER 303??????? POATAN KO JIRI AGAIN!!!

[@mascyan7178]

Lionel thank you for being such a great mma KZbinr

[@lionelrivera_MMA]

Thank you for supporting my channel✊🏻

[@joshthemediocre7824]

Poatan is already a all time great, i love watching him fight. I'm a big fan of Glover too.

[@michaeltrujillo4149]

Great. Great. GREAT video! It was like learning it all all over again. Excellent editing and narration, love the easter egg jokes baked in, all around very entertaining. Subscribed 😊

[@Mind-Love-Self]

Izzy and Alex is by far the best story line ever in UFC. It's anime level writing

[@bwilson6269]

I still remember the first time I saw this dude....I remember thinking "WHAAAAT?! This dude fights at MY WEIGHT?" Hell no man, if I ever need convincing that I'm not cut out for fighting or being a tough guy just gotta look at him and the pecking order is quickly refreshed in my mind.

[@linusolsson5173]

*Izzy starts an OF* *Poatan sins walks in with a doctors robe* 🗿SHAMMA😏

[@Elite_warlord]

@@linusolsson5173 nahhh

[@andrewalaskiewicz38]

Can’t wait for the bout for the LHW Championship @ 300!!!! Hill is a beast, should be a banger!!

[@cameronkenzie5957]

This is a great video the editing is top tier, great job

[@nahjo]

Man u put together a good documentary. Especially the last lines hit different. They should pay u for this

[@fmulheresnopalco]

Awesome video, man. Shout out from Brazil. Alex is a living beast and he is not done, the collection will grow.

[@cesarhenriquearteiromattje448]

Shoutout to the puppy is simply absurd, how does ufc let that slide

[@LetHimRead]

it is disgusting, cannot fathom why some people still support a puppy diddler

[@SillyRobot]

Because he’s saying things they can’t object to

[@GGbrodudeslol]

Izzy : I beat that guy one time

[@ryanrogers7452]

Was getting his ass beat before he landed the shot too lol. If they fought 100 times, regardless of ruleset, Alex wins a good 80% of the time

[@RealMrSmile]

​@@ryanrogers7452 If my grandma had wheels, she'd be a bike

[@gbp3616]

Well done video man. The people watching this and not subscribing are robbing you as far as im concerned. Keep up the good work 💪

[@findbar2424]

the music is annoying..... its ufc, not the avengers

[@nicodiaz627]

Izzie officially became the guy at the pub.

[@roadkill4340]

Nah Izzy will be back and hopefully become champion again setting up the fifth and final fight between them

[@JulioEuropePharmaVendor]

Shoutout to the Puppy 🐶 !

[@lionelrivera_MMA]

🐕🐕

[@groscaramelmou2583]

One word : efficiency Alex pereira is the most efficient ufc fighter of all time, in two years he ended one of the best mw of all time reign and won 2 belts, defeating 4 former champs/future champs.

[@leonardocg1738]

As a Brazilian I got say this video is insane! Bro literally had goosebumps

[@cristianolatini6231]

is the guy with the hat in 27:13 volk?

[@eversor10]

Chael should get a cut of your vids lmao

[@sallgoodman2323]

Pereira's still on the speedrun. We may need an updated version of this storry, He's got his eye on the heavyweight division. GREAT VIDEO btw, Stellar!

[@jwho369]

Excellent documentary brother. Editing, scripting, pacing, all on point.

[@codyviera92]

Thank you for this documentary. Alex is an absolute monster and is deserving of everything He has accomplished. He just easily knocked out Jamal hill.And I really wan to see him move up and fight for his Third world title heavy weight.Tom Aspinal is waiting

[@ProdbyCoincidence]

This was a great documentary, i thought i was just going to watch the first 2min then leave, i ended up mesmerized, watching all of it, and wanting to watch it again, thank you.

[@Pwanchi]

He speedran MW and LHW and became champion in both divisions, but the caliber of fighters he had to fight to get there are one of the best. I don't care if you're the biggest Poatan hater, you cannot deny his achievements. He fought EIGHT times in the UFC against 7 opponents, and FIVE of those opponents were former champions. Not to mention that he did this in 2 years, in 2 divisions.

[@lazaruscomplexofficial]

One of the greatest combat sport careers from kickboxing to mma

[@MonkDowns]

DAMN GOOD JOB!! Damn good video! Its probably the most well produced attention holding video, edited well video of all of MMA! And I am a former TV Technical Director AND a Godan (5th degree) Black belt in Taekwondo And still train and teach in the San Fran bay. So Congrats again to Lionel.

[@Lamidnightsss]

@15:12 staring at him. Izzy looks away and he’s still just staring him down. Chills.

[@sosicksaysso8297]

I don't even follow the sport but I watched this whole damn from beginning to end not knowing any of them or their history. Great movie man!!!! UFC here I come.

[@myfriendniko]

I replied to comment here before but felt the need to go a little more in depth about his alcoholic past. The fact that this man is sharp and motivated to do all of this is simply a miracle. As someone that had a similar upbringing to Pereira (zona sul de São Paulo). I can confirm that his alcoholism was really bad because I was the same way. Might seem impossible but after daily drinking 80 proof for a while, you will be able to down 800ml to a liter a day easily. Constant drinking from when you wake up to when go to bed will build insane amounts of tolerance, and then it will just become a habit. And I don't mean being moody when you dont have a drink or two, alcohol withdrawal is a scary and deadly syndrome that not only takes a toll mentally but physically. I couldn't hold a cup of water because of how bad my shakes and tremors were. Anxiety, not being able to sleep and tachycardia where just the start. I not only respect Pereira for career but also his other battles in life Took some years to get off the sauce but happy I am alive and healthier than I was 10 years ago

[@mr.scrappy1647]

I love how we thought Alex was the big bad guy but now how we view him as like the main guy
