2. Chito not making excuses but talking about Sean’s hair and talking about a body shot that happened when the fight was over and pretty sure that Sean let his guard down knowing he dominated. It’s the same story with Chito… he starts way too late and gets beat up. A bit like Tony Ferguson except Tony would still throw but he knew if he breaks you then he will take over. Sometimes I feel Chito tries to portray this tough guy narrative but he definitely needs to just relax. Definitely feel for him though.

3. 4:33:44 dog person

4. Thanks

5. I'd like to see Francis fight Joe Joyce.

6. Chitos left side of his face still looks swollen asf 😂

7. Crazy to think Francis didn’t recall anything after the first round, until he was talking to the doctor after the KO.

8. 'Meteoric rise.' Love it.

9. Yep not buying it, its just promotion, best fight of Mike Tysons career? Com on dont say silly things like that. The man is pushing 60, as soon as he gets stung with a solid punch it will be lights out. He shouldn't be fighting at this age

10. Man why is Rob the most stand up guy in MMA? Just so real and honest. Very admirable. Even in the few times I didn’t agree with him I respected his position because you knew it was truly how he felt.

11. Credit to Francis for saying he had the best training camp and was healthy. A lot of people would have made excuses.

12. 100 dollars for amateur regional MMA is a joke.

13. Just because Francis doesn’t remember after the first punch doesn’t mean he was concussed with the first punch.

14. Is the subtext here that Ngannou was drugged or poisoned on the day of the fight? It's a crazy conspiracy, but not outside the realm of possibility.

15. What was that voice !

16. Their is no question about it, Tyson was in terrible shape. Dont know why ariel can’t accept that.

17. Chito is not very smart….

18. I agree with Chito, Cory made himself look like a doucher with that video.

19. Don't understand the chito hate, he gave sean his props. First thing the guy said was it was a fair fight and he was just the better athlete.

20. Tech issues aren't ideal

21. Our boy NYR spitting out facts on the Colby situation!

22. Francis is great but im starting to understand a little where Dana is coming from about the ego. That was hard to watch

23. How can you not like Whittaker.

24. Go Astro boy!! Future Aussie Star

25. NYSE: MMA 🚀🚀🚀

    exciting stock !

    John Kavanagh and Rich Chou gonna push Alta

26. Crazy after watching and listening to Sean and Chitos latest interviews. Chito could run it back today. Sean said his foot is still jacked up and some other undisclosed nagging injury. After a 5-0 outclassing and swollen face, this guy is more fresh than the champ who whooped him. Like when Frazier beat Ali but had a stay in the hospital.

27. Francis using every excuse under the sun 🥱🥱🥱

28. If erceg got a shot stop laughing at rountree

29. Love Chito but he was coping hard here

30. i fucx with that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

31. He got the bag , enough is enough .. now we all know Tyson fury basically took him lighty ,never thought I’d hear him Francis making excuses i was tired I was there to early .. great mma fighter but really stop egging him on to fight in boxing again he is rich beyond his wildest dreams now

32. Hey, it's the Combat Sports Hour! lol

33. Imagine how much in the negative GC would be if he didn’t lie about the odds he plays?

34. Gilbert about to motivate Ariel to walk the plank 😂

35. a 57 year old hitting mitts and looking good is not impressive if you were literally a world class pro boxer.. some random dude sure but come on..thats like being impressed that present day Larry Bird can still hit 3’s.. that make you wanna see him back in the NBA with the young guys?.. stop trying to sway people because you are on Jakes payroll. someone almost 60 and you’re okay with him taking blows to the head by someone in there 20’s..

36. The Frank plane voice NEEDS to be a ad lib like the “who me” 😅

37. With Gilbert talking about starting Bay Area fighting again, i think it would be a really great idea to somehow built a state by state mma fighting league/teams. The idea of having different cities within the same state fighting to get the best of the best to create a State Team to then have huge events with something like California vs Texas and Colorado vs NY competing to a Championship Finals type of style, would be exciting to have. Obviously not every state would be a part of it and it would have to fit in within a year or two with every state fighting every 3 months or so. There would have to be very specific rules to something like this but the idea of having a State mma team, even a city mma team would be huge, i believe

38. Jeez a lineup of losers

39. Ariel – The Arnold's in BIRMINGHAM, England.. home of the UFC Welterweight Champion of the World.. Leon Edwards.. Birmingham also home of the Peeky Blinders, Jude Beliingham and is UK's 2nd largest city.

40. Yall gotta stop overthinking these parlays.

41. Damn some sore losers with these interviews, respect for coming on but damn

42. That end with Julianna Pena was funny lol

43. 2:14:59 Frank Lentz?!

44. Francis couldnt believe he got hit with a clean shot on the button for the 1st time versus a real ppower puncher.
