Tai just Fights like gaethje just Swings like mad and sways his body around Kicks and Punches but the majority of the time it works so its a win win Tai Gaethje Chandler and Holloway are Fighters I can just watch win or loss dosent matter its just pure entertainment
@Daymi Yeah I don't think he has enough endurance or ability to beat Ngannou or Jon Jones. But to me Tuivasa is the most entertaining Heavyweight and he gives the people the best fights to watch. I think he'd be an entertaining champion, if only he had been fighting in like the 2000's-2010s period then he probably would've dominated the Heavyweight division. Right now there's just several Heavyweights who are better like Ngannou, Gane, Blades, Lewis & Jon Jones if he ever comes back and fights. I've been wondering what Jones would look like as a Heavyweight.
@Cam C yes completely agree but I just think that as much as I like bambam I don’t see him beating ngannou or jonjones if he comes back so idk but don’t think he will be champ anytime soon
Tai eating that head kick and Cyril bringing down that hammer fist on the back Tai's head while he's hunched over are two of the coldest heavyweight moments.
Cyril just delivered a masterclass. Cherry on the top, in Paris in front of his crowd.. Hats off to Tai for that warrior's heart. UFC Paris was a complete success !
Two warriors going at it. I appreciate it when humans choose to put on a show put it all out and give the fans something they can remember. Both fighters are goats for that
@J.A.G. agreed, Gane performed better than Francis. I got into watching mma more recently, and out of all the fighters I’ve watched, Gane might be my favorite lol. Followed by Jon jones, and my bet is definitely on the G! Should be great! Curious to know where the Russian bear Sergei lines up 🐻
The only thing I really hate in MMA striking is the "accidental" hit to the back of the head. Any time someone is rocked dudes start dropping hammer fists and hooks that like 50% go to the back of the head and the refs don't do anything about it.
Tuie got hands, I'm surprised he beat him! Long live Tuivasa though props to the other fighter for trading with Tui & then beating him. Do you notice how Tui throws hard when he's hurt? He becomes animal trapped in a corner.
Man I do have to say that is one of the best fights I have seen. Both boys took some game chqnging blows but stayed in it until the end. ROCK ON GENTLE MAN. GOOD LUCK TO Y'ALL KEEP THE FIGHT ALIVE KEEP IT 100
Great fight and Tai has a head of stone but in the Heavyweight division it is hard to top Mark Hunt v Bigfoot Silva 1. I know Silva failed post fight PED but watch that fight. This one was an instant classic though for sure
Maann HW division is finally getting really interesting again… Ngannou, Stipe, Jones, Gane, and Tai… I could see literally anyone of these guys giving Francis at the very least trouble, or winning…
This makes me think Pavlovich will beat Cyril. He’s got the same technique and way more power than either tai or Cyril. He already beat Tai so fighting Lewis makes no sense at all, Tai already beat Lewis.
Amazing how good a ufc fight can be when you actually try to hit your opponent instead of dancing for 3 to 5 rounds and go to decision. And those being like that's not smart fighting. Didn't know that ufc was supposed to be boring instead of entertaining.🤔🤦♂️
The Thing is I can't see any heavyweights that are currently active being Gane or Sergei so them 2 just need to fight each other but if Gane won he'd have to fight ngannou again or maybe Blaydes and tbf no active Heavyweight apart from Jon Jones has a chance against Ngannou Never mind Jon Jones has returned every Heavyweight is fucked
Love how Gane, even tho he is a technical striker who fights from a safe range, embraced the flames and unloaded everything with vengence once Tai dropped him. He fought fire with fire. Wish Adesanya had this mentality too. He was too cautious against Pereira. You can't play it safe for 25 mins against someone who can beat you with once punch, it's too much mental pressure knowing you have to be perfect for 25 mins while the other guy has to land 1 good punch for 1 second.
Blue shorts seems to have almost been knocked out on several occasions. I don't think it was his ability to take a punch that allowed him to continue, as much as it was the other guy's failure to capitalize on the hits.
Two fighters, that couldn't be any more different. Gane with a very muscular and athletic build, fights very technical and intelligent. Tuivasa, who's a classic heavyweight. Massive build & just hits like a freight train. And still they both put on an exciting fight!
This what separates Tai, Lewis, Gane and Pavlovich to Ngannou. They put themselves in freaking danger. Even Gane and Sergey are willing to drop their guards, have their chin up and go in a brawl mode with their monster opponents. That's what makes them a monster.
I can’t believe i didn’t see this fight before although i wondered what would happen if they faced each others and stupid me forgot all about it.. am looking up the full fight NOW
Bro that fake wobble into the overhand right would’ve been the most legendary knock out of all time Tui is definitely a beast I hope he gets the title one day
@Brendan Hiltner he was rocked but at the same time sometimes you can lure someone in by pretending that the punch they connected with disrupted your equilibrium more than it actually did they’ll think all it takes to knock you over is the wind but in fact he was still dangerous had he carelessly walked into it not anticipating he would do some type of last ditch effort attack he would’ve lost the fight Tai has dynamite 🧨 in his hands but Gane is a terminator a learning 💻 he’s seen all of these combat tactics so he could avoid most of them and get away with relatively less damage while picking him apart
Fights like this should get some other massive bonus beyond fight of the night. An additional excitement bonus because this will be played many times. 100k sounds good to me. It could be a snoozer of a card and 1 fight can make it worthwhile.
Personally mine is Derrick Lewis vs Tai Tuivasa. Great entertaining fight. That’s why Tai is my favorite fighter in the ufc he likes to get in the inside and swang and bang with a guy. His fights will always be a must watch for me…
@Mr. E no Jones would take him down. Doesn't matter if Cyril's striking is better. If he can't stop an Ngannou takedown what is Jones gonna do to him?
Tuivasa is an absolute warrior. He is the definition of a fighter who goes down swinging. Heart of a lion right there.
Letting your brains get shook isn't heart of a lion it's simply hubris.
Like the early days of Tank Abbott
Hunt school.
If you saw Tai on the street walking around in a baggy jacket you’d just never know what he’d really do to you and your entire group of friends too 🤣
Boa hahahah
And by the time you realize it, you signing hospital release forms 3 days later.
I assume he’s pretty big in person when standing next to someone not Ciryl Gane lol
The whole club 💀
Once you get punched by a big guy you never want it again. Just avoid em all unless you know how to dance and outlast em
Them body shots were VICIOUS! I loved watching this fight live
I loved when he roundhouse kicked the guy then sidestep ducked a wild hook immediately after, so fast and graceful.
That head movement by both guys in those hook exchanges was phenomenal. One of the best fights ive seen.
Ciriy gane muito técnica movimento pro dois lados variação de golpes um fenômeno
Tai just Fights like gaethje just Swings like mad and sways his body around Kicks and Punches but the majority of the time it works so its a win win Tai Gaethje Chandler and Holloway are Fighters I can just watch win or loss dosent matter its just pure entertainment
@Bully Maguire
The less you know, the more you criticize.
@Daymi Yeah I don't think he has enough endurance or ability to beat Ngannou or Jon Jones. But to me Tuivasa is the most entertaining Heavyweight and he gives the people the best fights to watch.

Tai eating that head kick and Cyril bringing down that hammer fist on the back Tai's head while he's hunched over are two of the coldest heavyweight moments.
The fact that tulvasa caught him with a straight jab and still knock his ass down is very impressive
The kicks and knees to the body changed this great fight👌
Great spirit from both men👍
This was war. Both guys brought the kind of fight we all love to see. Mad respect, such killers
Les take a moment to appreciate the fight this lads had in em, wobbled a few times and they still kept going 💯
Cyril just delivered a masterclass. Cherry on the top, in Paris in front of his crowd.. Hats off to Tai for that warrior's heart. UFC Paris was a complete success !
That's definitely one of the most active and best heavyweight fights ever!!
Two warriors going at it. I appreciate it when humans choose to put on a show put it all out and give the fans something they can remember. Both fighters are goats for that
That fight completely changed my view of Gane. He’s technical as hell, but he’s got a little junkyard dog in him, too. I’m now a fan.
I didn’t think that was technical whatsoever
Needs to be a bit more aggressive tho. He gives these guys to much time to recover. Look how fast Pavlovich obliterated Tai, wasted no time
@J.A.G. agreed, Gane performed better than Francis. I got into watching mma more recently, and out of all the fighters I’ve watched, Gane might be my favorite lol. Followed by Jon jones, and my bet is definitely on the G! Should be great! Curious to know where the Russian bear Sergei lines up 🐻
@Oahts yeah he's only lost to the champ, and that wasn't even a loss. That fightve should've been ruled a draw
@J.A.G. I was too but I didn’t even know Cyril fought volkov he did very well
Holy shit, I always forget about how tai dropped gane and how he finished afterwords, amazing fight🎉
Salute! They're both true warriors💯
“Anderson Sliva liked that front kick”😂
That’s the heart of a champion, Cyril gane is definitely special
I loved when he kept kicking him in the stomach 😂
The only thing I really hate in MMA striking is the "accidental" hit to the back of the head. Any time someone is rocked dudes start dropping hammer fists and hooks that like 50% go to the back of the head and the refs don't do anything about it.
There are winners. There are loser's. Those with heart will fight day after day. Hats off to both. Beautiful display of putting it on the line.
These guys are awesome 🙌🏿🙌🏿
They both delivered and that's all that matters
Gane's recovery was insane
He was holding on for dear life! Haha if he didn’t hold tuivasa for that brief moment he was going out
I WONDER IF JON OR FRANCIS HAVE A CHIN LIKE GANES..
@Mark V Wish he would use that from the beginning even though its way riskier, its fun to watch
That was what i was thinking as well
Right?! That fight or flight adrenaline activated real fast.
Tuie got hands, I'm surprised he beat him! Long live Tuivasa though props to the other fighter for trading with Tui & then beating him. Do you notice how Tui throws hard when he's hurt? He becomes animal trapped in a corner.
they moved pretty fast for heavyweights!! epic performance by both guys!
God damn they were throwing some blows! Both of them wobbling around then snapping back with haymakers
I was cheering for Tai because I wanted him to fight for the belt. The dude is very likable and would be a entertaining champion.
Man I do have to say that is one of the best fights I have seen. Both boys took some game chqnging blows but stayed in it until the end. ROCK ON GENTLE MAN. GOOD LUCK TO Y'ALL KEEP THE FIGHT ALIVE KEEP IT 100
Gane’s striking and footwork is nothing short of poetic
Tai deserves an Oscar for the way he sold that head kick
That was one hell of a fight 🔥
Great fight and Tai has a head of stone but in the Heavyweight division it is hard to top Mark Hunt v Bigfoot Silva 1. I know Silva failed post fight PED but watch that fight. This one was an instant classic though for sure
Maann HW division is finally getting really interesting again… Ngannou, Stipe, Jones, Gane, and Tai… I could see literally anyone of these guys giving Francis at the very least trouble, or winning…
This makes me think Pavlovich will beat Cyril. He’s got the same technique and way more power than either tai or Cyril. He already beat Tai so fighting Lewis makes no sense at all, Tai already beat Lewis.
What a flippin fight.. i remember this like it was this morning.
Ciryl gane was complete knockout, i had same experience, the ground clash wakes him up, such a quick recovery
Taking a leg kick from a guy that big is devastating!
Amazing how good a ufc fight can be when you actually try to hit your opponent instead of dancing for 3 to 5 rounds and go to decision. And those being like that's not smart fighting. Didn't know that ufc was supposed to be boring instead of entertaining.🤔🤦♂️
This was a fight, amazing stuff from both guys
I can’t believe I’d forgotten just how intense this fight was. Amazing performance by Tai and Cyril
@Thomas Lunde yeah, I was joking.
I got that from the context.
@Chris Alexander I don't speak of Jesus, i will perish in happiness because i will never submit to any religions.
@Thomas Lunde speak for yourself brother... who is this Jesus fellow you speak of
@Camilo Sanchez We will perish in happiness my friend.
Jesus is coming. Submit to Christ or perish,,,
If tai jumped on that knockdown quicker… probably one of the best fights I’ve ever watched. I don’t blame Francis for dodging a title defence
That hammer fist over the top just before Tuivasa collapses, wow
Tai had him just needed to be more patient with his shops but been a Aussie I'm very proud of him and I hope these two can have a rematch
This fight shows the importance of body work! Pretty even in striking but game pulled through because of the shots to the body!
One of the most entertaining heavyweight fights in history!
@Бандит Мирный 😂
Льюис против Нганну самый зрелищный бой в истории UFC!!!!
These guys are absolute savages. Thank God I can run faster 😂
Bam Bam Tuivasa showing out for the “bigger” fellas 💪🏻🥊 my favourite fighter on the current roster
The Thing is I can't see any heavyweights that are currently active being Gane or Sergei so them 2 just need to fight each other but if Gane won he'd have to fight ngannou again or maybe Blaydes and tbf no active Heavyweight apart from Jon Jones has a chance against Ngannou
Never mind Jon Jones has returned every Heavyweight is fucked
Love how Gane, even tho he is a technical striker who fights from a safe range, embraced the flames and unloaded everything with vengence once Tai dropped him. He fought fire with fire.

gane using tai's guts as a heavy bag physically hurt me while watching
Absolutely hilarious 😂
The beauty was how it perfectly set up the head kick!
I’m pretty sure that’s what made tai fold eventually
Wdy mean? It was so satisfying
Those kicks would split a regular human being in half.
Golpes brutales por ambos pero las patadas de Gane fueron la diferencia
Gane has some of the most impressive kicks from a heavyweight
Those guys were throwing punches like a movie that was crazy 👏🏼👏🏼
Damn that onslaught to the guys stomach was brutal
If only tai punch landed after the fake wobble
@Hyrum BlissHe is black French like me. You are funny.😁
Of course it was a fake wobble he said it himself multiple times and gane new tai does this kind of things so relax
@Sir Robert The Bruce absolute rocket punch. Woulda sent him to the moon 😵💫
@Hyrum Bliss AHAHAHAHHAAHHHAHAHAHAHA
@chibuzomichael that makes no sense 🙄
Talk about heart. These guys stood their damn ground!!!
Respect to bullfighters that was an amazing fight
Blue shorts seems to have almost been knocked out on several occasions. I don't think it was his ability to take a punch that allowed him to continue, as much as it was the other guy's failure to capitalize on the hits.
Two fighters, that couldn't be any more different.
Gane with a very muscular and athletic build, fights very technical and intelligent.
Tuivasa, who's a classic heavyweight. Massive build & just hits like a freight train.
And still they both put on an exciting fight!
How Tai ate those head kicks is beyond me. Legendary!
Legendary Cte 😂😂😂
@William Young bro 🤣🤣. He's Samoan.he has been Samoan blood and genes . I can tell . You can be Australian and Samoan .
@now dig on this I think he was adopted as a Samoan and raised as a Samoan, but he is aboriginal australian
@William Young ok ? He's still Samoan. He even said so . Hjs name tai tuivasa ain't no European or white name .
@now dig on this he uses the aboriginal flag
Forgot how freaking crazy this fight was. Tai is a beast man. For being a more fatter heavy weight dude is a legit problem
They never should have let Tai fight so soon after this KO….the UFC and NSAC are fookin crooked…
Tuivasa did absolutely amazing against probably one of if not the best striking heavyweight in the world. Fan of both guys massive respect 👏🏻👏🏻
Cyril vs Sergei now that will be a fight!!!
That fight went exactly as I thought. Tai is so damn tough.
That guy street fights
@Yoann Maybe but another big reason is his knees were messed up.
@Thi Ha because he couldn't brawl like always against Gane
That’s the kind of fight that I expected for Ngannou fight but Ngannou chose to wrestle-fuck😅
Tai is a monster bro
Gane literally threw a hammer fist to the back of tuivasa head. Great fight
If Gane thought Tuivasa was the hardest hitter he fought, then wait til he fights the big Russian bear that just broke Tuivasa in like 30 seconds. 😯
Some of those shots they missed at the end would hav been murder 😂😂😂
Best heavyweight fight in ufc history. 👏🏻
Now my favourite too...hats off to these fighters all of them.
Big dudes are vicious with the blows, line watching Transformers fight. 👊🏼
Some nights I have dreams where Tai lands that overhand after wobbling from the head kick
This what separates Tai, Lewis, Gane and Pavlovich to Ngannou. They put themselves in freaking danger. Even Gane and Sergey are willing to drop their guards, have their chin up and go in a brawl mode with their monster opponents. That's what makes them a monster.
This fight never gets old
Check out Mark Hunt vs Bigfoot Silva.
You sound like this was in the late 2000s 😂
It literally happened less than 90 days ago lmaoo
Loool like it didnt happen 2 month ago 😭
@K.P 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can’t believe i didn’t see this fight before although i wondered what would happen if they faced each others and stupid me forgot all about it.. am looking up the full fight NOW
Crazy video there. By the end I realised I was literally at the edge of my seat.
That W was damn sure earned
Fierce respect to both fighters
Bro that fake wobble into the overhand right would’ve been the most legendary knock out of all time Tui is definitely a beast I hope he gets the title one day
@Brendan Hiltner he was rocked but at the same time sometimes you can lure someone in by pretending that the punch they connected with disrupted your equilibrium more than it actually did they’ll think all it takes to knock you over is the wind but in fact he was still dangerous had he carelessly walked into it not anticipating he would do some type of last ditch effort attack he would’ve lost the fight Tai has dynamite 🧨 in his hands but Gane is a terminator a learning 💻 he’s seen all of these combat tactics so he could avoid most of them and get away with relatively less damage while picking him apart
Wasn't fake at all..why do you think that? What if he really was rocked?
That was a good @ss fight... I wish I would've seen it live or when it was first aired
Say what you want but Tuivasa is an animal. Probably my favorite heavyweight fighter.
I think Sergei Pavlovich will whip Gane.. those precision punches in a fast flurry could take Gane by surprise
That hammer fist to the back of the head right before the punch that dropped tai👀 looked dirty af.
Even more impressed with tai rewatching this and I was already stoked on how good he did. What a legend!
@baron white I think he meant “Even more impressed with Tai, rewatching this…”
Tai has some heavy ass hands.
Where's the link to tai rewatching?
ABSOLUTE WAR! How can you not love these two? Are you not Entertained?!!
There's no way tai should have been fighting so soon after this kmft..🤦🏾♂️
Ciryl with that back of the head shot 🎯
This is actually one of the beat ive seen fr, big up both of them💪💪👊👊
God damn the power, speed & head movement & recoveries! Both men= pure Savages! 🔥
Even my 65 year old mother was into this fight
YEEEEEEEESSSSSS GREATEST MMA HEAVYWEIGHT FIGHT OF AAAAAALLLLL TIIIIIIIIIMMMMEEEEEE!!!!
Fights like this should get some other massive bonus beyond fight of the night. An additional excitement bonus because this will be played many times. 100k sounds good to me. It could be a snoozer of a card and 1 fight can make it worthwhile.
God damn... You know how hard you have to punch to KO a Samoan?
An unbelievable battle of two titans. Tuivasa has the heart of a lion.
Personally mine is Derrick Lewis vs Tai Tuivasa. Great entertaining fight. That’s why Tai is my favorite fighter in the ufc he likes to get in the inside and swang and bang with a guy. His fights will always be a must watch for me…
They deserve each other 💪🏻
He hit him in the back of the head
..that's a disqualified moment no? 🤔
Bam Bam have serious power in his hands, terrifying. But Gane has the skills, footwork, kicks and steel chin. 🙌
gane in that third round was one of the best fighters i’ve ever watched. everything was just perfect.
@I only bring this to you because jones needs to be as strong as ngannou to do that….guess we’ll see what happens lol
@Mr. E and win the heavyweight belt probably.
@Please don't Reyes didn't win shit. Quit lying to yourself.
@I only bring this to you because Jones will do cocaine and veat his wife, that is what jones will do
@Mr. E no Jones would take him down. Doesn't matter if Cyril's striking is better. If he can't stop an Ngannou takedown what is Jones gonna do to him?
just look at tai legs when he absorb gane high kick..he wobled and instantly get back to stance...thats sick control
