Barboza ❤️❤️❤️🇮🇳
They're pushing Battle in particular pretty hard huh
That was so good for battle, seems like a really good dude. Little Jimmy your a legend too, to us comic fans, you know we're a weird bunch. Keep it up, you and Matt are so good together .
Set him up with Wonder Boy that would b a good sparring partner
Bryan has a champion mentality I can see him going far in the UFC
Mma🇸🇦🥋💪🥊
Oooo
Bryan battle dope
I Hope Edson Barbozas Giga Saturday night. This guy has been through so much. Got robbed of his win bonuses in two straight fights also on top of the 2 Losses in the record he didn’t deserve.
Bryan Battle has some good charisma. But let's hope he can fight just as well. He did well on TUF. Let's hope Barboza sends Giga to the shadow realm so I can jump out of my seat.
TALABIDEN
Knew the UFC would edit out when Barboza pursued and smashed his clearly knockout out and lifeless opponent face down on the canvas. Steve mazagati would be proud of that ref.
Chikadze will win 🇬🇪 Mark my words 🤫🥋🥷
Bryan battle looks so much like the bad guy in the movie cyborg from back in the 90s just give him some silver shades 👊👍🤣
I’m definitely rooting for Brian! Great fighter great personality, very wholesome guy. Also hoping for Barboza to take the W in good fashion
WOW. I can relate to Brian alot. I’m 21 and I’m about to move out to Vegas from my small small town to start out myself the same exact way! You are a big inspiration for me on my journey. I dedicated a year already to getting in shape and lost 50lbs, and I’m now making the transition to bet on myself. I hope Brian takes that W 🏆
Those over the top punches, landing around the ear will cause you to immediately be teleported to Disneyland.
I'm surprised the UFC let's Jim Norton host a podcast on their channel given his raunchy jokes, including his sexual ones. They've always been about professionalism, and he delivers quite the opposite.
i love brayn personality i think he will win the tuf finale
Matt Sera is such a corny fucker and I love him so much
GOING TO BATTLE!
With a name like Battle, it’s in his stars to fight!
He should tell buffer to announce him as Bryan "built for" Battle.
Lol Jim said his neck looks like an old mans scrotum
Jimmy, who tf is chikayze it’s chikadze…CHIKADDDZE
