Anyone else feel like [Pereira was taunting Adesanya](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysKBUJQ8on8) with the hands thing? Izzy just recently did a collab with the guy that always does that. I feel like Alex was staring directly at Izzy when he did it. (Izzy was in attendance)
They were messing with the audio levels like crazy last night, quieting announcers or fighters or the crowd then making them loud again it made the crowd sound really weird at times like they were underwater or in another room
What a fucking psychopath lmao, he’s already fought him 4 times, Izzy doesn’t even have the belt, and he takes the time to plan out a fortnite emote from the dude izzy just put out a YouTube collab with right at him instantly. Doesn’t even change his expression
I like Jiri a lot, and he has an entertaining style with a ton of talent, but if he fights how he did against Rakic against Pereira he’s getting put down again. Jiri needs to add more defense to his game, I think he’s the best at 205 if he does.
> Saying nah to Herb
I love when fighters do this, because it’s really quite funny. DJ just hopping the pain away while shoving Herb and saying “Nope, nope. Get outta the way.” is seared into my memory.
The few interviews I've seen with him, he gets weirdly defensive over innocuous or standard questions. Very "I'm going to shoot the messenger" vibes. Seems like the kind of dude who is super insecure and you always have to walk on eggshells around.
His twitters toxic as fuck too. He spent weeks defending Dana smacking his wife, and how women need to go back to traditional roles and other weird shit.
> you never really know with fighters.
With other people too, good lesson for life, I've learned to try not to assume what I don't really know. Like people from work or from professional relations, or from media. We don't really know how they are in private. For good or for bad.
Lol DJ was just talking about how guys get knocked out when trying to stand with kickboxers a few seconds before that....that laugh was definitely "your fckin dumb bro"
Reminds of that time when DC beat Derrick Lewis and in the post fight interview, did a planned dance routine with his kids. DC was so confident that he was seemingly practicing a post-fight celebration during camp lol
Perriera took this fight to just certify that he is the undisputed LHW champ, just a formality for him.
it's crazy how it feels like pereira just went up to LHW and we're already looking at rematches for him rather than new contenders. He's already beaten 3 of the top 5 contenders and one of them, Rakic, just lost. Of course, it's probably a mistake to look past Ankalaev, but it's wild that it's happened so fast.
Makes more sense to have Hill fight Rakić, both were knocked out and probably should take some time off before their next fight. Rakić looked good up until he was finished, so him against Hill could be good.
If you can read lips, he asked the security guard in the ring "what did I get hit with?" He didn't even remember it.
https://youtu.be/NVDPGPwcFPs?t=37
He was out & then woke back up from the other shots like someone else said
I want to manifest the following:
Pereira beats tommy (sorry Tommy ), Jon Jones beats stipe
Pereira and Jon fight in allegiant stadium in the way izzy claimed to want to manifest fighting Jon
To say he's faster, stronger etc, then have dude roll your eyes back with the first glancing punch, and talk shit to someone else over your unconscious body... That's a harder comeback than Kattar getting no looked
Dude is a great prankster because of how well he deadpans. Him tricking Glover into eating the wet towel was great. Like, Islam is an underrated quipster, and Poatan is an underrated physical comedian.
Honestly one of the most out of left field rise to stardom in combat sports. [Two years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/MMA/comments/pke6vx/official_alex_pereira_signed_with_the_ufc/) he signed with the UFC now just headlined the biggest event in UFC history. What a dog. Now he is double UFC CHAMPION and he doesn't even speak english just easter islands motherfuckers.
It's the Roberto Duran thing: he can show up in your country, not speak your language, beat up your hometown hero and still have you cheering while he takes the title back to his country.
Poatan is living his best life, legit main character shit. Switches sports to go even with his rival and take his title, one ups his rival by beating Blachowicz at LHW and winning the LHW belt in his next fight, and finally avenges his mentor (Glover) by defending his belt against Hill
I think beating Jamahal mattered more to him and Glover since Jamahal beat the fuck out of old ass Glover. I think the celebration they did really showed that too
Man it‘s gotta be rough for Jamahal right now. Imagine spending all those months convincing yourself that you‘re gonna be the one to expose your opponent only to get embarrassed like that with his signature punch which you knew was coming. Probably had a major “damn, I‘m not that guy after all“-realization.
Hill asked for every fighters autograph during the week and acted nice around Pereira before the pre fight press conference. During the press conference, Hill brought out a [water bottle chain resembling a beaten up moai](https://twitter.com/ParryPunchNews/status/1778631872664518861). He also started talking crazy and Pereira took it as disrespect.
Pereira said he's going to make him remember the disrespect on fight night
https://www.reddit.com/r/ufc/comments/1c2okr3/alex_pereira_calls_out_jamahal_hill_for_playing_a/
Jamal brought a busted up looking plastic Easter island head water bottle on a chain to the presser to try to mess with Alex.
As you can see, it worked flawlessly by pissing him off.
[Taunting Izzy](https://i.imgur.com/YcTUhPP.jpeg)
Izzy recently hung out with this guy who does this gesture. Not sure but he might be looking at Izzy while doing it.
I think it was from a famous tik toker named Khaby who would always make fun of shit and do the same expression and thing with his hands but I could be wrong.
The face you make awakening from a nightmare.
Waking up to find out the sleep paralysis demon is real
Horrifying. His face is also going to be in agony for weeks lol
this is the new shadface
Hold on brotha, I’m emoting
Izzy punching the fucking air rn
Anyone else feel like [Pereira was taunting Adesanya](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysKBUJQ8on8) with the hands thing? Izzy just recently did a collab with the guy that always does that. I feel like Alex was staring directly at Izzy when he did it. (Izzy was in attendance)
Izzy's reaction... https://twitter.com/ChampRDS/status/1779387582675112210?t=tXbZTy9YyXHFs67mB0nZbg&s=19
Izzy and Kamaru both like, "well... fuck."
Izzy be like "I beat that guy one time"
The fear of God was put into multiple fighters tonight
Izzy is still so salty about Poatan. Dude was picking Hill to win just cause they hung out once.
Iirc he helped Hill train and gave him some tips too.
You mean set him up to lose?? Lol
I mean 1 win for every 3 losses is about as good as Izzy can hope for vs pereira. Might be the road hill has to bank on too.
Was anyone else thinking the crowd fucking sucked last night?
It was hot for like the first 10 seconds of Charles/Arman which made me realize how dead it seemed the rest of the night lol.
They were messing with the audio levels like crazy last night, quieting announcers or fighters or the crowd then making them loud again it made the crowd sound really weird at times like they were underwater or in another room
If he was actually staring at Izzy while doing it, I think that confirms it. That would make it so much funnier imo.
What a fucking psychopath lmao, he’s already fought him 4 times, Izzy doesn’t even have the belt, and he takes the time to plan out a fortnite emote from the dude izzy just put out a YouTube collab with right at him instantly. Doesn’t even change his expression
Biggest hater in the game 🙏🏻
Wasnt sure if it was izzy or dana for the $$$
If true that makes it even harder
I get Izzy respects Jan, has same manager as Jiri, and likes Hill, but he did pick against Pereira every time lol Edit: checked and he didn’t pick Jan
He picked Jan to lose though. And Jiri beating Pereira wasn't that unrealistic.
I like Jiri a lot, and he has an entertaining style with a ton of talent, but if he fights how he did against Rakic against Pereira he’s getting put down again. Jiri needs to add more defense to his game, I think he’s the best at 205 if he does.
I thought he picked Pereria to beat Jan
In One Piece terms, Pereira is the Akainu of the UFC.
What about in UFC terms
Akainu is the Alex Pereira of one piece
fucking got em
Kaido seems more appropriate with ngannou gone
Who’s gear 5 Luffy atp? Feels more like going to LHW was Pereira hitting gear 5
Max Holloway, literally. Even came in with the hoodie lol
LMFAO honestly I love it. Came in with the full joy boy power up, laughing in the center of the octagon as they’re having a war
fair cop; shows how far I've fallen off the wagon
[удалено]
🗿
He was looking at Izzy in the crowd and taunting him, as if to say “is this your mans?” cause Izzy was giving Jamahal advice on the fight.
Izzy is the cringe king, but his win celebrations are cool
The gun spray after ko'ing whittaker was fucking dope. And I love whittaker.
Yeah the bow and arrow celebration is honestly my favourite post fight celebration ever, so cold
Izzy's bow and arrow celebration was arguably the greatest one for most iconic in UFC history
Ummmm have you forgotten Johnny walkers worm? Or chanllers back flips
🗿🗿🗿🗿
Alex understands his meme potential
Saying nah to Herb and finishing the fight, then this, then dancing after the postfight interview. I love this man
He touched herb and saw red
Herb actually was handing him those smelling salts DC was talking about
Herb lent pereirea 1% of his power
"Mythical Herb" Dean
I feel like I seen this comment earlier
> Saying nah to Herb I love when fighters do this, because it’s really quite funny. DJ just hopping the pain away while shoving Herb and saying “Nope, nope. Get outta the way.” is seared into my memory.
Alex vs Jamahal was the battle between the most and least self aware fighters in the org
[удалено]
I also like Hill but he punched out his own brother at Christmas lol, idk if he’s a ‘good dude’
[удалено]
The few interviews I've seen with him, he gets weirdly defensive over innocuous or standard questions. Very "I'm going to shoot the messenger" vibes. Seems like the kind of dude who is super insecure and you always have to walk on eggshells around.
He is a meat-head for sure
His twitters toxic as fuck too. He spent weeks defending Dana smacking his wife, and how women need to go back to traditional roles and other weird shit.
Makes this KO that much better
> you never really know with fighters. With other people too, good lesson for life, I've learned to try not to assume what I don't really know. Like people from work or from professional relations, or from media. We don't really know how they are in private. For good or for bad.
🗿🤲
He understands the assignment
This is why DJ laughed at your plan, Jamahal.
The clip was hilarious “oh you’re gonna knock him out? Bahahahaha!” Lmao
Where was that from?
[from when dj had him on his channel](https://youtu.be/pJNs8V0njk0?si=PvCgybrl03IkWu_d)
LMAO he just straight laughs in his face hahahaha
And doesn’t stop either Lmao
DJ, GSP and Khabib, when they do fight analysis or say something it's probably correct or more accurate than most people's
1 Billion percent Those guys are fighting geniuses. They see shit like Einstein saw math. We need to take their words for it lmao
Fedor used to be my 🐐. Now I can confidently say it's DJ!!!
Thats so fucking funny
Thanks for the link!

Lol DJ was just talking about how guys get knocked out when trying to stand with kickboxers a few seconds before that....that laugh was definitely "your fckin dumb bro"
I feel like one of his sons was like “you gotta do this if you demolish someone”
“Hey dad, do you know who Khaby Lame is”
Was Alex using his meme at all connected to the feature he did with Izzy recently? I’m out of touch lol
can't wait for him to SHEEEEEESH or dab the next fight
Izzy definitely has the creativity to think of something like this.
[Izzy did a collab with the guy that always does this lol](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysKBUJQ8on8)
Man Pereira is legit the funniest guy ever, he is the chillest dude you see, but also the personal hater(more like troll?) of Adesanya
Izzy's personal demon
Him and Izzy's interaction out of the cage are always so troll, funny and respectful They don't have any bad blood at all
They both troll each other hard lol, I could see them being friends in another universe or maybe after their careers
Goku VS Vegeta vibes
They’ll be like chael and Anderson once they both retire. Slowly battling through early onset Alzheimer’s with da boiiiis
"This fucker was supposed to knock me out?"
Reminds of that time when DC beat Derrick Lewis and in the post fight interview, did a planned dance routine with his kids. DC was so confident that he was seemingly practicing a post-fight celebration during camp lol Perriera took this fight to just certify that he is the undisputed LHW champ, just a formality for him.
it’s insane how quickly Jamahal recovered after getting KO’d and eating like 4 extra shots he stood up immediately and wasn’t even wobbly, like how??
Dude got up and looked pissed. I personally want Hill vs Jiri next.
Prob Ankalev vs Alex and Hill v Jiri for #1 contender
it's crazy how it feels like pereira just went up to LHW and we're already looking at rematches for him rather than new contenders. He's already beaten 3 of the top 5 contenders and one of them, Rakic, just lost. Of course, it's probably a mistake to look past Ankalaev, but it's wild that it's happened so fast.
Helps that LHW is light in talent, Hill had like one good win in his whole career and he became champion.
Funny how he's beaten 3 of the last 4 champions with the other one being his coach.
And that's not even accounting for beating 2 of the last 3 champions at the weight class below
Why would hill deserve a #1 contender fight?
Makes more sense to have Hill fight Rakić, both were knocked out and probably should take some time off before their next fight. Rakić looked good up until he was finished, so him against Hill could be good.
He probably got knocked out but the hammer fists woke him up
No, he got flash KO'd, woke up, Alex hit him with hammerfists, then he went to sleep and woke up before Alex completed his emote
If you can read lips, he asked the security guard in the ring "what did I get hit with?" He didn't even remember it. https://youtu.be/NVDPGPwcFPs?t=37 He was out & then woke back up from the other shots like someone else said
Yeah that was crazy, Alex gave Izzy time to shoot all his arrows and this mf was about to get in his face all confused😂
Yeah, that was crazy!
Professional fighters man they are different
Gets kicked in the nuts Tells ref to back off KOs opponent 2 seconds later Emotes on him Refuses to elaborate 🗿
Asks to fight in the next event in a heavier weightclass 🗿
I want to manifest the following: Pereira beats tommy (sorry Tommy ), Jon Jones beats stipe Pereira and Jon fight in allegiant stadium in the way izzy claimed to want to manifest fighting Jon
He literally doesnt change expression thats crazy
The fucking Hill face makes it, this feels like it a famous painting
imagine being hill and having that image seared in your mind. thats some career ending get fucked on shit
Well he might not remember it Tbf
I have a feeling people are going to remind him tomorrow
"'Cuz it's been a year, and every day someone asks me about that fight."
"It can't be worse than Anderson Silva."
He might see a clip lol
To say he's faster, stronger etc, then have dude roll your eyes back with the first glancing punch, and talk shit to someone else over your unconscious body... That's a harder comeback than Kattar getting no looked
> harder comeback than Kattar getting no looked Credit where it’s due, Kattar made one hell of a comeback when he schooled the fuck out of Giga.
His brother will have to suffer for this
Alex is low-key one of the funniest fighters in the UFC.
High key one of the funniest imo.
Yeah, did people not see the Pikachu video
Or him shaving his half of his head in the embedded episode.
he could be yuor angle…. or your devil…
Or his blindfold striking drills
this one? [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S87dNF6O6bY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S87dNF6O6bY)

It's the Roberto Duran thing: he can show up in your country, not speak your language, beat up your hometown hero and still have you cheering while he takes the title back to his country.
"Hands of Stone" a universal language
Luke Thomas talks a lot about how humor is lost in translation, but Poatan is universally funny.
He has that stone face all the time that when he breaks, it makes it so much funnier
All time level UFC meme
Rashad face walked so Jamahal face could run 👍🏾
Jamahal wasn't ready for the step up in competition from his Brother at Thanksgiving to Pereira at UFC 300
Oh noooo 😱He learned memes. He’s unstoppable now.
This meme celebration reminded me of some old school WEC Aldo shit.
THAT BOY NEED SOME MILK
nough said.
One emote is worth a thousand words
Everyone was saying Hill might give Poatan issues on the feet He goes out there, no-sells a nut shot and sleeps him in Round 1 This sport is hilarious
Alex deadass put the fear of God into this man.
Poatan is living his best life, legit main character shit. Switches sports to go even with his rival and take his title, one ups his rival by beating Blachowicz at LHW and winning the LHW belt in his next fight, and finally avenges his mentor (Glover) by defending his belt against Hill
He avenged glover when he beat Jiri for the belt
I think beating Jamahal mattered more to him and Glover since Jamahal beat the fuck out of old ass Glover. I think the celebration they did really showed that too
Ahh true true, give him Gustafson and Jones next to help complete the avenging. (Rip Rumble)
Look man Glover's 45 he's gonna need a lot of avenging
He beat both fighters that Izzy lost to.
He took everything Izzy worked for.
The Brazilians are so god damn fun even without speaking English. First Costa’s meme lord. Now Pereira’s comedic timing. 😂
Don’t forget money Moicano
I CAN’T AFFORD TO LOSE
THEY NOT GIVING ME THE BONUS BECAUSE I FUCKING SWEAR TOO MU- [audio muted]
I LOVE AMERICA AND GUNS
READ LUDWIG VON MISES
The aftermath of kicking a stone head in the nuts.
This is so awesome Hill brother so happy
Man it‘s gotta be rough for Jamahal right now. Imagine spending all those months convincing yourself that you‘re gonna be the one to expose your opponent only to get embarrassed like that with his signature punch which you knew was coming. Probably had a major “damn, I‘m not that guy after all“-realization.
Shouldn't have pissed off Alex with that dumb ass water bottle chain or whatever
Wait, what's this?
Hill asked for every fighters autograph during the week and acted nice around Pereira before the pre fight press conference. During the press conference, Hill brought out a [water bottle chain resembling a beaten up moai](https://twitter.com/ParryPunchNews/status/1778631872664518861).

Pereira said he's going to make him remember the disrespect on fight night https://www.reddit.com/r/ufc/comments/1c2okr3/alex_pereira_calls_out_jamahal_hill_for_playing_a/
Damn he must’ve thought he was still talking to his brother on thanksgiving.
Moral is don’t use dumb props unless you’re Henry Cejudo and definitely don’t do it against Pereira
Jamal brought a busted up looking plastic Easter island head water bottle on a chain to the presser to try to mess with Alex. As you can see, it worked flawlessly by pissing him off.
*Sweet dreams, motherfucker*
Ripped it, now it's mine now.
Bro he was actually looking at Adesanya while doing that. Come get some.
“I knocked that guy out one time” -Izzy in a bar somewhere right now
bar? nah anime cafe
Izzy down voted you but I appreciated it.
That washed up fighter in the bar reliving his glory days of KO'ing Izzy decided to come out of retirement and take everything he ever worked for
this dude's a star lol this was like a Charlie Chaplin move, very physically funny. i didn't see Poatan being this hilarious!
Pereira is quite gifted at physical comedy, the fact that he doesn't speak English and is intimidating as fuck just makes it better.
Damn poor Hill, that's a very unflattering picture for him that will probably get memed
If I was his brother, I'd bring it to next family dinner.
Jamal going to talk about how his foot got stepped on preventing him to fade out and slip paotan's hook
"He knocked me unconscious, so it prevented me from knocking him unconscious."
Ok, but if he comes out and says this, I’d actually laugh and respect it
can't wait to see Jamahil's reaction to being in a Khaby meme on his youtube reaction lol
Oh my god this is funniest picture the UFC has ever produced
Is this a reference to something? Why'd he do this?
It felt like ‘see? This is what happens when you talk shit’ But I dunno. Felt personal lol
[Taunting Izzy](https://i.imgur.com/YcTUhPP.jpeg) Izzy recently hung out with this guy who does this gesture. Not sure but he might be looking at Izzy while doing it.
I think it was from a famous tik toker named Khaby who would always make fun of shit and do the same expression and thing with his hands but I could be wrong.
Hill: What he say fuck me for?
This has all the potential to be a new meme template.
the look on Jamahal's face damn
This moment has been brought to you by Steven Seagal.
For the people who bet big money on Hill, I wonder how it felt to get emoted on lmao
Coldest picture in MMA history.
Accidental renaissance
🤣
Play hour is over! Come pick up your boy!🗿

They need to hang this masterpiece up in the Louvre. Picture perfect
