nice glasses dan
the details and inishgt u give in the slow mo from ur xp is exactly why i tune in. thanks Dan
Sick shades Dan! 😎 Even matches the mic coard. Extra style points.
Btw, shout out to this comment section. intelligent views and discussion going on here
celebrating minutia is exactly why we are here.
Dan you don't think that Poirier vs. Gaethje 2 wouldn't benefit Poirier? They have a similar story: reinventing themselves after their last losses (McGregor for Dustin, Dustin for Gaethje) to gain Interim Gold; then losing to Khabib. They are both the last two ICs at LW. I say if Oliveira doesn't get it Gaethje should for the Undisputed Title (if Khabib is truly retired).
I would love to see how Whitman preps Gaethje for Conor
Nate and Dustin can do the same numbers as Nate and Conor. Great piece as always, thanks Dan.
the only lectures I pay attention to
gegard hasnt looked good imo
"Aftermath" is a fantastic concept. Love it. I'm hooked. Best to you from Canada.
Bit late catching up due to work but I love this format 👍🏻
Excellent point for mousasi return to UFC Adesanya, Whitaker, vetori and Holland are all really good strikers
Connor be losing to karma.
Listening to you talk about mma makes me so relaxed man it's a form of meditation for me you heighten all my senses and I love listening to your soothing British accent and excellent flexion. Thanks bro!
Great stuff...the thinking man's Bisping.
My man, your the best mma podcast out there. All these other people riding conor's nuts so hard and your out here just speaking facts. All these people talking about a Conor/Dustin trilogy are fucking insane to me XD
As far as cross organisation fights I think MVP V Masvidal would be amazing
Dustin vs Oliveira. For the title. Dustin clearly deserves a title shot, and Oliveira holds multiple ufc records, and an 8 fight win streak, and is rank 3. Gaethje vs Chandler. For title contendership. Both wrestlers with punching power, one coming off a title fight loss and one making big waves. Great fight. Conor vs Nate. Wrap up that trilogy, before nate disappears forever, just get it decided. Hooker vs Felder. Who wouldn't want to see that one again? Last time it was fight of the night and was a split decision. Great fight. Tony vs his demons.
19:10 first time that I'm gonna disagree with Dan Hardy. For me, Chandler has no business being in there with Oliveira. The man has a 8 fight win streak, holds multiple ufc records for finishes and submissions, and absolutely smoked a guy who was interim champion and who also had a huge win streak. Chandler beat someone coming off a brutal loss. He has 1 win. Charles is sitting on *16* wins. He worked his way up to a title shot by paying his dues for the company. If the ufc matches them together its tragic.
Dan is just amazing. Plain and simple we are so lucky to have him still apart of the MMA community.
Dan looks like a receptionist at Elton John's house.
Whose waiting for holloway v katter aftermath
I love this shit. Any way we can get one of these for Holloway vs Kattar?
Float like a Wonderboy and dodge the calf kicks :P
I’ve said it once I’ll say it again.. best analysis in the game
😂 Mcgregor vs Gaethje? Gaethje is a leg kick enthusiast. Justin will kick Conors legs off this fucking planet. 🤣
Rockin the Elton John's
Bring Back Gegard Mousasi!!!!
I Agree! Gegard M, bring him back!!!!!!!
Lol, not surprised Dan Hardy would want to meet force with force. Let's test our shins boiz
Agree, I don't think Poirier wanted McGregor to be nice at all. He probably would've been more comfortable with old Conor.
The mystique is gone for Conor, no one is gonna be intimidated anymore. Since leaving FW he's beaten Eddie, Nate and Cowboy and thats it. All cherry picks he felt extremely confident he would beat. He underestimated Nate tho.
Quit gulping your drinks lol just open the hatch we don’t need to hear it
@Dan Hardy mate I like your shades. Hope you get back in the octagon someday.
It's the same blueprint to beat Jon Jones IMO
I live for the Minutia
Not subtle dig at cowboy which I like. He does pull himself apart. Kudos
30:54 not that Horiguchi isn't great, but I think the Flyweight division has gotten better and Figueredo is legit. I want to see Mighty Mouse back against Figueredo as a legacy fight, to prove that he is one of the p4p best of all time.
Always good stuff sir Hardy 💥
Dustin Poirier should be in a title fight, his next fight!
Do you wants to see McGregor fights Diego Sanchez at Dublin an win spectacularly with all that improvement on the leg kicks and all for 5 rounds? Or do you want to see Khabib maul Sanchez for 5 rounds? People love stan up match. When Dana said "fighting was the first sport" i think he was right. People pay for people fighting throwing punch and kicking. Wrestling is safe and better too, thats why cowards fighters started practicing. Khabib will never be as big as Conor, history will remember as the life of Conor's little bitch who always jealous of him. If they never fought together Khabib will be on the level Usman.
@11:05 "Nothing wrong with that game plan, I think 5 times out of 5 it probably works". Well fuck me, that sounds like a perfect gameplan to me, lets run it back -_- Haha
Haha! I meant five times out of ten...
anyone else wanna see mcgregor vs felder ?
am I the only one who wants to see Felder vs McGregor ? they have already been going back n forth on Twitter. its winnable Conor but felder is a dog and guaranteed to make you EARN THAT FUCKING WIN
UpTheDarce- wonderful Hahahahah
how can all of you tell me that Chandler deserves on TS after only 1 fight.... There are a lot of fighter who fought XX times and havent got the chance yet... Charles deserved on it...
Elbow and hammer fist to back of head
Hardy rocks. The best analysts? Probably yes
Is this guy on the McGregor payroll
“McGregor against Tony Ferguson.. It would be delightful”..🤣🤣🤣Dan is a total stoner!
It was all faked for the trilogy
Gegard mousasi is and has been my favorite fighter. He’s a silent killer and was not respected when in the UFC in my humble opinion.
To be fair the biggest nate an conor fight is when retiring.. and finish both careers with the trilogy end.. over next couple years max.
McGregor vs furgeson is the one if hes not gonna do the trilogy with Dustin
Great as usual
Poirier vs Olivera or Chandler for the BELT
These break downs are awesome!
Brutally honest... I think Cyborg should have stayed and should have been treated better....
Every fight in the lightweight division just shows how bloody good Khabib was. Fair play to the man, one of a kind.
Had me at the glasses
Anyone know what the app Dan is using for the breakdown is called?
Ha, GSP just mentioned Sir Dan on the Bisping podcast, reminded me to check in. Bit late..
Obviously the next technique(s) that will become popular is either pressure point pokes, the 5 point palm exploding heart technique, and the Flair chop. All highly effective.
McGregor looked juiced up, stiff , tired , over training , he's finished
Man , that ayahuasca is really kicking in hard
Conner beats his opponents with his mouth. Could not do it to Khabid who's mind is stronger. Conner hasn't changed he gets triggered when he hears Khabibs name. He knows Khabib beats him every time.
Hippy
What a great video. Very professional and one of the best people to watch that exist currently!
I would advise Poirier to take the trilogy against Conor and retire, save himself from taking too much damage. He’s a great guy, he needs to keep himself that way.
while absorbing connor punch he kick connors leg, dustin investing his lower leg kicks and gain high return.
Dan is a samurai at break downs. Thanks for the hard work and dedication, much appreciated.
Wit out me.. dis hole ship sink's Said Conner's leg
Hardy wearing those "Snow" glasses
Connor never used his (straire Leg) Attack To the Stomach which would maneuvered most his FIGHTERS
My matchups: Conor vs. Ferguson, as both, Poirier and Conor coming from a loss vs Khabib, and also Gaethje comes from a loss to Khabib, so next in title should be Gathje vs Poirier. As they already fought, the next matchup (for the vacant titlte) should be Poirier vs. Charles Oliveira, as this last one comes from a long top 10-15 winner streak, and Poirier already has a win over the next (closer) loser to Khabib, and Gaethje should earn 1 more win before that privilege. So, Gaethje should face Chandler, would be a great fight between 2 Bellator former champions, and a redemption from that circumstance, reaching such early position in UFC. If Chandler beats Gaethje would take position and earn next title fight to Poirier vs. Oliveira winner. If Gaethje beats Chandler will earn the win regarding to the next in line to the Poirier vs. Oliveira winner. Conor vs. Ferguson would be a great fight, and would line up next to Gaethje vs Chandler loser or even title fight after Gaethje vs Chandler winner vs. Poirier - Oliveira winner. 3Conor vs. Ferguson 1Poirier vs. Oliveira (title fight) 1 winner vs. 2 winner 2Gaethje vs. Chandler 3 winner standing for next in line
For lightweight ... I say Chandler is new and another guy named "Islam" should be having a fight !
Insane to think that Chandler might be up for a title shot... a least one more fight in UFC before title fight ffs
Conor and the world including me and the media over looked dustin and tbh I never knew dustin was even a top contender in the game. I only found out about dustin a month ago because of conor mcgregor. I think conor didn't train for mma fight was preparing for a boxing fight to beat max Holloway and ended up getting his legs kicked off then the TKO heart broken 💔 😤 soon come back for the trilogy 3. Conor was little bit emotional at the press conference as well 😔
Love the new format. Are there any plans to release episodes as audio only as well?
I think Conor McGregor's Camp is going to figure out how to counter the calf kick to the point where it just gets shut down from now on
Beautiful recap
For new moves, I think that some of the traditional Kung Fu strikes, from very specific styles, that although aren't the easiest to utilize at times, some of them can be very effective, like a downward hammer fist to the collarbone, or forearm strikes similar to the shin with the legs
I think one of the trends we're gonna see more in MMA in the future is more of a Thai mentality with kicking: people who will target the forearms to beat them up and open up other targets (with the added bonus in MMA of debilitating arms when grappling), and just generally the speed and power of roundhouses, switch kicks, and elbows I just don't think is quite as developed as it could be. I'm also utterly confident that leglocks are gonna become much much more prevalent and necessary in the near future of MMA
Love the change in format dan. Works well. I like the interaction with us common folk. Loads of questions on my mind asked by others and answered by your good self chap. Cheers!
The most anticipated bout booked for 2021: Dan "technical difficulties" Hardy Vs live streaming This one's gonna be a banger
Good thing Dan has been training with a high tech server for this epic battle.
This cardio issue is much bigger than most realize. This is Conor's main weakness and without it he would be almost impossible to beat. I think especially as he's gotten older. It becomes more challenging. He has all the business's he has to over see and a family that demands his attention. Conor has a good ground game but avoids it because of cardio. Also in this game success chips away at the hunger and drive these guys start out with. Especially when you accomplish the things Conor did so quickly. While he deserves credit for the financial success he achieved in the Mayweather fight. It seems to have hurt his MMA career. He just hasn't been the same since. Thankfully in this Porier fight. You could see he is searching for that magic he once had. The challenge will be embracing the grind that MMA demands. When he got to the UFC, he made it clear. It was all about the money. Well now he has the money and a lot of it. So hopefully he can find the motivation needed. I hope so.
Conor just needs to fight more.. win lose or draw.. if it’s competing that makes him tick then just get back in the mix. Get back on point. Doing anything more Beats only doing it once a year.
Not just Conor.. think legs kicks the new knockout. Brutal dismantle indeed. Always thought leg kicks were the key to any fight.
So gay for Dan with those glasses.
happy friday guys, skål
Dan you have one of the best mma minds EVER!!! You’re on the Mount Rushmore of mma minds. Your like Dominic Cruz but not a egotistical, snarky, little prick. I love Dominic but he can be less palatable to people because he’s kinda a dick ( which I actually find entertaining and funny). Looooooong story short, you have the best mma mind and way of telling people how and why. You fukn rule Dan!
Although Nate is very beatable I think he’s the worst matchup for Oliveira. We all know his head n chin are made of steel, he’s got great cardio, and he’s a monster on the ground (not Oliveiras lvl but a true black belt unlike a lot of so called black belts). He’s got to fuk his legs up. Or it could be a tough night for IMO the best 55r in the world. And the only person whom has a chance at beating Khabib. It makes me sick that so many people are putting Chandler in the title shot conversation and not mentioning DO BRONX. WTF!!!! It’s insane that he STILL doesn’t get the respect that he deserves. Dan is one of the only people who give him the props he deserves. Even khabib knows what a monster Charles is.
If Oliveira doesn’t get a title shot....!!!!!!!
CHANDLER???? He has had ONE win in the ufc and people think he deserves a title shot lol.. Justin Vs Dustin or Dustin vs Olivera and Chandler should not even be in the title picture now!
Please stop talking about Khabib fighting again. He isn't coming back. That's why Dana was so down at the presser after the event. Khabib said I'm levels above these guys, which he is.
Gotta admire McGregors courage. Been out of the MMA ring for years (despite cowboy 🤠) makes this fight himself with Porier giving him 500k for a charity, come back Vs #1 you have to respect. Wins and losses are a part of sport. Can't wait to see him back
"How does one check a calf kick" Chris Weidman vs Anderson Silva 2😉😬
Yuuuuup
Yup!!!! That was also a perfect example of using checked kicks as an offensive tool also. Checked kicks not only stifle strikes but they also damage the contenders lower leg throwing the kick.
To be fair i expect a broken tib or fib any week as most of these young fighters try and imitate dustin and get the kick checked
Dustin is great but he needs to master the art of feeling out a dangerous striker (watch Khabib in the first 20 seconds of his McGregor fight, he's perfectly finding all he needs to know of McGregors reach/speed/power etc) If Poirier masters the feel out and gets his wrestling up a smidge he could be unstoppable
I think Conor just needs to go back to fighting less elite people at LW and get his groove back if he wants it. If he doesn't that's OK he made the UFC more popular for many like me, he was great for his time and that's more than any of us will ever achieve. There's no shame in bowing out to losses from the top 2 light weights in the world.
