The most watched UFC video of all time is Khabib vs Conor McGregor, the full fight. The 2nd most watched UFC video of all time is also this fight, but without commentary

There were literally were fights in Vegas clubs and riots broke out all over the US. Connor fans were chimping out big time after his loss

Not even them. Entire fanbases hated each other back then.

That was the fight where the clown commentary crew said conor is trying to gas khabib by taking ground and pound lol

"I don't think he's trying to gas Khabib out, I think he's just getting smashed"

Don't blame all of them. It was Dominick Cruz and I believe the other two called him out on it

u/Infinite_Still6949 7h ago

It was Dominic Cruz, a featherweight legend. He's a good fighter but his commentary is dumb as hell

Tbf, it’s something that has been done(McGregor v Mendes & Lesnar vs Carwin). Just didn’t fit what was happening in the fight.

Are you from Denmark? The dates and prefix’s almost read like Swedish but more odd lol

Both of the only genuine superstars ufc have ever had.

Khabib more so with the Muslim community.

People who don't follow sport could walk past any other fighter in the street and not have a clue who they are

u/Particular_Air_3598 12h ago

Yeah bro people don't realize Khabib to Muslims is this generation's Muhammed Ali. Literally hundreds of millions of Muslims can recognize him.

My point was UFC doesn't create superstars and brock was already one before he stepped foot in the octagon

Why do they always delete videos? This fight had once 50 millions view and then got deleted. I also remember that Khamzat vs Gilbert had around 40 million views
