I like Okamoto as an interviewer but not as a moderator. Ariel does a better job moderating imo. Gilbert does a fantastic job too
somebody needs to put a side-by-side picture up of askren and melendez.
Gilbert slow down.. slurring words n nervous af
UFC needs to make these guys dress more professional
Gilbert "Silvas going to pull guard" Melendez
Longtime ufc fan, but the espn team sucks. Bring back the people fix broadcast used. Chael sonnen is unbearable to listen to. Ariel is a whiny little troll, Stephen A. Has no business commenting on ufc broadcasts, Brett is boring, Gabriel is not bad..... Thank God for Jon anik but please bring on Jimmy Smith at least.....damn!
Glad to see Gil is working for the company
#casualfriday
I like how chael flings his head back during ground and pound so the ref will stop the fight faster. Good technique
Chael sonnen analyzing striking bahaha
Israel drops Silva goes in for the kill only too end up entangled in Da Spida's web
Gilbert is the guy
Israel and whittaker easy.
prediction : if Silva does win, all of Israel's emails will be marked as spam...
All three of these guys know their sh&*t
Kelvin was working a lot of jits and a lot of wrestling this camp, I hope he shows it off
I got two rounds of battle, by the 3rd Whittaker will be injured and gastelum will be aware he isn't going to be able to KO him, so next knock down he gets he wrestlers him and gets a sub when they are both hurt and tired.
Suprised ESPN let's them dress like that
Conor would smash all three of these clowns
Brett with all due respect, why ask Dana specific questions about fighters, that they can only answer when common sense tells that? I have a feeling you do it as per the hat you wear but come on, it's too much he said he said. Other than that I like your style more than the rest. You do good work, and are well respected.
Either way neither has to worry about takedowns for the most part... they're both in their respective worlds and I hope it at least lives up to being an amazing fight
My predictions are idek what..
YES! Love to see Gil as an ESPN analyst...kudos to ESPN for getting some serious MMA vets as commentators and analysts.
How does a guy that’s terrible at speaking, continue to get gigs like this?
Bret looks like he swings both ways yaddamean
Gilbert Melendez is a fantastic analyst. Also, one of the greatest lightweights of all time.
"So where does Kevin Lee fit into this Card?"....😄😄😄
"I love Cupcakes Too"......
Gastelum by submission round 1. Your all sleeping on the rear naked choke. And New....
Great job guys! KEEP PRINCES ARIEL AWAY!!!!!
Scott Baio again
Aierl hlani vs Brian nakamato
Okamoto's plaid shirt game is on point.
Bruce Lee would beat them all!
Widaman and KG are both black belt in BJJ
May the better man win, I am just moreso hoping for a great fight with no controversy with the result. I want the fight we expect this to be, but sometimes these types of fights are lackluster at best.
Is Melendez actually calling this card? I'm very curious. He would be solid. He doesnt hate on guys
He's been around for awhile
+Wally Payton Gilbert would be much better than bisping. Bisping too much of the me back in the day talk. Gilbert legit for sure plus he doesn't talk down on fighters . Joe is lucky he gets to pick if he travels lucky bastard, but Gilbert and chael would be just fine for me
Rogan doesnt fly out of country no more to do Ppv Shows..Maybe Gilbert steps in. Or Bisping..Gilbert would be a breath of fresh air..
I hope so, you can tell he’s really a fan just like all of us, he doesn’t care who’s in there he just wants great fights to happen
Brett makes the Ray to Vigo (from Ghostbusters 2) eye contact to the camera.

Is Chael Sonnen the GOAT OR IS CHAEL SONNEN THE GOATEST GOAT WHO EVER GOATED?
You're retarded if you pay a penny for the PPV. Dana white is a piece of shit that sold out the fans. Moving the fight from vegas to LA during fight week, totally selling the fans out for a crack head steroid cheat. Fuck you dana white.
Danm Gilbert has the energy 😤
Let's go Gastulum!
Why some of your videos are not available in Turkey ?
Is this full show on ESPN +?
Great breakdown guys, I'm super excited for these two fights!
More focus on the Co main event.
Gilbert should learn how to say Gastelum right before breaking down the fight
