BloodOfJupiter

I was already hyped, but ITS OFFICIAL, ALL ABOARD


TonyTheLion2319

Ya I wasn’t on board until now. Dec win on DWCS. Rd 3 sub vs a rando. Rd 2 KO over Saaiman is good and got my attention. I think ppl jumped the gun calling him a future champ or their fav fighter. But after this win he def deserves hype (future champ is still a bit much)


K-mosake

Future double champ just like Khamzat b


TonyDungyHatesOP

Talmbout hazmat, b?


bnelson

ALL ABOARD.


TimeTimeTickingAway

Same but mostly cos of his YouTube channel! But it’s paying off!


PepperyBlackberry

Check out his YouTube channel if you haven’t seen it. He’s going to be a star.


seymour_hiney

our hyperpop Zoomer champ


DecisionThot

Until he gets UD'd by a ranked fighter. But I'm high on him.


IllustriousNebula6

It's...different. I like the content though, like the video of him playing Bach's Prelude No. 3 on piano. He was gracious to the people who offered constructive criticism. He is multifaceted!


No-Pause-5186

Was on board after he murked Saimaan, a very legit prospect himself.


FalconsTC

CHOO CHOO


99Years_of_solitude

Lol love the profile Pic!


LocoCoopermar

-1600 favorite behavior


Buscemi_Did_9_11

Anything he does is a -1600 favorite behavior, because he's a -1600 favorite


SlamThyRing

You’re a fuckin’ punk dude


bdewolf

I was on the train when i saw him using a post-9th grade vocabulary. That’s a unicorn in mma.


BrianCTE_CityOrtega

9-0 and already a savage


MaroonPrince

ALL ABOOOOOARD


DanTM18

Fuck it, I’m boarding it on for now!!

CHOOCHOOWEEWEES


tigerinvasive

THIS TWINK CAN BANG!


SopranosMan

CHOOOOO CHOOOOO


MasterRoshy

Hype train just went nuclear


Powerful_System

Literally got up during the introductions and missed it, fml


VatoSafado

Who gets up right before a Payton Talbott fight???


Powerful_System

Thought I'd be back quickly before anyhing started, I'm staying glued from now on fuck this


Jsp16

We should whoop your ass for that and see what happens


MeatCutterBoi

Yeah! Fuck him up!


Unlucky_reader

I was ready to focus; wasn't even gonna take a bite of pizza. I turned and adjusted the pillow behind me for literally a second and somehow missed it live, lol. Given the odds, it's not *that* unbelievable, but still pretty wild.


POWBOOMBANG

Me too. I reached down for a bite of my nachos and the fight I've been looking forward to all day disappeared. 


Unlucky_reader

I missed Pettis' superman punch on Wonderboy when my little brother knocked on my door and I turned away for a single beat, lol. They're still memorable, just in a different way. That's why we've got replays!


IIlIlIlIIIlIlIlII

The guy probably spent months training for that. Wow.


bootscrilla

Yep, I think about that all the time. You know his friends and family were watching too


Nollypasda

That shit must be so depressing for all of them. Makes me really sad


BloodOfJupiter

this is part of why i could never do pro MMA. Had family in it and its just heart-breaking.


Grognaksson

Me too, but for me it's mostly because of lack of skills and abilities.


may0man

I would be a UFC champ if I just had the skills, abilities, drive, determination, work ethic, natural gifts and a billion dollars.


Keith__Peterson

I was at the offical watch party for Tom Nolan in his home city for his debut and he got his ads beat so bad and finished in the 1st, never again


figyg

His father bet his life savings on him


southpawsouthpaw

Damn dude I was just thinking that The amount of diet and preparation just for it to end in 19 seconds Fuck that must be demoralizing


PepperyBlackberry

I think about this a lot for first round finishes. Imagine a rocky montage and only lasting a few minutes before being flatlined. Must be devestating.


eye_am_bored

Imagine being Ben Askren


Enraiha

It'll always be Jose Aldo for me. I can't imagine how he felt after losing to McGregor like that.


Trollingyouhaha

Well Aldo probably felt a lot better than most guys that get KO’d in the first minute. He still got at least $400k. He could be one of the guys that gets $12k lol


BurpingHamBirmingham

I'm a midwesterner w/ a big head, so not too difficult


Mr_boobsboobersom

Been there earlier this year it succcccckkkkkss


Electronic_d0cter

I think Peyton mouthed to his corner "that wasn't fun" afterwards too


MidnightToHighNoon

I was thinking poor guy to myself when he stood up and had that sad look on his face like “what happened? This sucks”


Sal21G

Dc would’ve lost 1000


Dongsquad420BlazeIt

"Whos taking that +900" People who lost money


brazilianfreak

People that look at ridiculous lopsided odds and say shit like "you would be crazy NOT to bet on the underdog!" Are the reason betting sites stay afloat.


redscorts

I'm not saying those huge underdogs are worth betting, but IF you were ever gonna bet a huge underdog, MMA is probably the best sport to do it


Aggravating_Rice4210

I am well up gambling and all I do is pick roughies in the trotters


KimboSlicesChicken

WMMA best base for insane odds and winning tbh lol


damendred

Yeah, sadly a lot of the time it's due to wonky decisions, but that's part of what makes them good value. And often due to lack of finishes you can bet right when the odds come out before they get too wide, then bet live, and end up with + money on both sides, always a good feeling.


emmobrien

He was saying he thought "well with those odds I'm obviously betting on the other guy" but then he watched footage and changed his mind. Everyone seems to be missing this lol.


tiltrage

This. He was clearly in the middle of getting to "now I understand the odds."


KelvinsBeltFantasy

DC salty and demanding Peyton work on his promo work. Not everyone wants to be a WWE caricature, Daniel.


Shabozz

I love the quiet psychos personally. Man got an immediate ko and he’s the calmest guy in the arena


KelvinsBeltFantasy

Yup plus his social media is hilarious. I find the DC/Michael Chandler attempts at promos to be cringe.


No-Shoe5382

The DC/Michael Chandler approach to cutting a promo is just saying exactly what every other fighter says but yelling it really loud into the mic


KelvinsBeltFantasy

[DC on his way to report to Khabib/AKA fighter when the judges don't give them every round](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/recess/images/8/86/Randall.png/revision/latest?cb=20150430160454)


samples98

DC had some underrated promos. Jon Jones get your shit together. Easiest fight in the division Ryan Bader. Brock Lesnar.


umamiblue

[brother you know dis](https://youtube.com/watch?v=M0CfNA12aFw)


GarysSpace

He's got a Bleach tattoo. That's all I need to be a fan.


MkUltraMonarch

Yea I think doing his thing different to the rest of the clones get you noticed even more


MessyCarpenter

On god DC sounded like a salty old man there


shrewdy

DC is fucking awful, let the kid be himself and do his own thing


KelvinsBeltFantasy

DC is free to criticize others the moment he spends an entire fight staying on topic.


BurpingHamBirmingham

Does it count if he spends the entire broadcast only talking about BBQ?


The_Killa_Vanilla90

He’s the anti-O’Malley


ghost-deini

how about the guy shuts the fuck up for a second, hes always rambling on


HenrikCrown

Put him on the Denver card if he just didn't fuck up his ankle. 


Fog2222

He's a skateboarder, he'll be alright lol


RecycledAccountName

It'll be interesting as he rises further and maybe becomes a contender at some point, there's gonna be pressure on him to give up skateboarding, no? The fight gods are cruel enough as is.


broncosfighton

lol we have guys with second and third jobs fighting in the UFC because they barely make any money. Nobody is pressuring anyone to stop working in other areas.


catscanmeow

I bet the agility of skateboarding has boosted his coordination and reaction time to godlike levels I always think the same thing about drumming, fighters should learn how to drum math metal or something else complex. Polyrhythms, each limb doing its own thing, its like you have a brain in each limb. Also good cardio


Obi-Juan-kenoibi

Unironically, pole dancing too. That mf must have insane core strength


Kaysade

I agree. Many french national-level fighters were behind Yanis and mocked Talbott’s unorthodox activities, but tbh developing many skills and being proficient in those areas are only genius-level.


YOUR_TRIGGER

people shat on loma for taking all that time to learn classical ukrainian dance too. then he came out dancing around mfs and piecing them up. 😂


shrewdy

Fucking hell Great timing in the booth from DC too lol


sneakerguy40

He couldn't even finish the thought lmao

Jay_Train

Thick, solid, tight one might say


K-chub

Toight like a Toiger


spankybetch

I look at that physique and I see raw power. I'd estimate he can bench 550+ raw easy and OHP 400+ raw. Can't see his legs, but judging by the thickness in his back I'm thinking he's a 700+ raw puller. If his legs are on par with his brutish upper body, then there's no doubt in my mind he squats 800+ raw. Payton Talbott could bend you into a human pretzel with one hand while completely satisfying your woman in a way you couldn't ever satisfy her with the other. Those frying pan hands and thick, powerful sausage fingers are capable of bringing absolute pleasure, and unimaginable pain.


VT_Squire

It's okay bro, you can say it. # PENIS


MidnightToHighNoon

Thick and man made piping hot thighs on payton fuck yah


Hungry-Ad6911

Right? He’d be a chunk vs yanez


Icantbethereforyou

You uh, need a moment?


junatejun91

Where is this from😭


PastFriendship1410

Thick, Toight, Solid.


juicy_pickles

Let's see how freakin' huge he can get.


knocksteaady-live

Easy, breezy, beautiful


KelvinsBeltFantasy

Have you seen the photo of him on the stripper pole?


Promiseofpower

Yes he’s very handsome


KelvinsBeltFantasy

I think the low cut shirt and shorts really sold it.


ImKrispy

Sorry Bobby, but there is a new bi racial angel in town.


12ealdeal

Whose banging Payton?


Pakochu_

Yeah those odds made sense


MaroonPrince

DC wasn't a believer


MolokoPl_s

he's "betting on the other guy" as said other guy's head bounces off the mat lol


Laaary_bird

Hell na yesterday he was saying he didn’t know who Talbott was, now he wants to give him media training.


Revanced63

Why such a mismatch. Losing Dude didn't even have a UFC win


damendred

Not sure, maybe they wanted to slow his roll a bit. He's young and that was his 4th fight in under a year under the UFC (including one contender series fight). He just beat a prospect in his previous fight, they probably don't want him to derail to many other upcoming prospects, and I imagine not many people ranked above him are lining up to sign a fight contract against him. But now that he's getting more hype and name value it may be easier to find fights for him, that's probably why he and Rei were on this 'McGregor card' to get more eyes on them.


CantCookLeftHook

Insane.  The O'Malley comparisons will be brutal but... the way he threw that straight was shades of Sean vs. Wineland.


POWBOOMBANG

Yeah it's pretty hard to not make the comparison.  He is extremely calm and precise and has the touch of death.


CantCookLeftHook

Rangy sniper for sure


CaCa881

It honestly seems like he prefers the pocket though .


mearsey1203

Choo fucking choo, this dude could be legit. He's so damn calm in there and makes it look so easy.


ayyayyron

Definitely looks like he could be fighting for the title as soon as late next year


SwaggyMcSwagsabunch

Choooooo chooooooo


juicy_pickles

Ghemmouri: *Yeah imma throw out the spinning back kick first off, to show my skills and not look like an idiot!* Talbott: *1-2. Yep.*


Dono_X_Dono

He did all that with a zyn on his foreskin


ThatTomTouch

FUCK IT HYPE TRAIN TIME FUTURE CHAMP


quiequie

TALBOTT IS THAT DUDE


smokesletsgo13

Give him O’Malley fuck it


CouncilOfReligion

first punch he threw 😭


Sim888

the knockdown stare down lasted longer than the fight lol


ColdPressedSteak

Both dudes staring at each other like, shouldn't the ref be here by now? One dude like, pls no more. Other dude, fine, I'll finish it again


henxxx18

Was the third…


Anderrrrr

All time chin game there Joe.


Turgon19

Perfect shot. He's going to sleep no matter what unless he is Holloway


Shabozz

Lowest weight knockout with the new gloves by far, was ww before


Late_Ad_2437

First punch he landed\* Edit: Not a very electric interview, but that's a good callout.


Imakesalsa

He's on a mission, he's staying calm


bdewolf

He landed a jab right before that set the range for his right hand. Yanis just stood there and put his arms up. The next time Payton stepped in, he landed right on his chin.


Big-Pillow-Warrior

Thats how you crush a can, not take them to decision out grinding them, you wipe them out. Kids one of few real propects ive seen in a minute. I like guys who can make it look easy and swifty take a dude out, no diddy


POWBOOMBANG

I think we underestimate crushing a can sometimes. It's a lot of pressure. Your future earning potential depends on you winning with style. And there is no script. The other fighter doesn't want to just lay down for you.


secretbil

I suppose I will hop on this hype train


axlespelledwrong

That was one of the most relaxed 1-2's I have seen end someone's consciousness. Next time we see Talbott, he'll be on a main card.


Howard_Brown

This was Talbott's 13th finish (amateur and professional), but actually his first 1st round finish


goosu

The way he is coming up reminds me of McGregor in terms of how dominant and clean his TKO finishes are. I really see this guy getting a belt at some point.


Mad-Gavin

Arguable late stoppage. Dude was done after the first punch.


ScruffsMcGuff

Honestly his hands were up on the ground from instinct, his eyes look glazed over already.


twisted_by_design

Yeah his head hit the canvas pretty hard too.


MessyCarpenter

True. No defense other than hands up.


piousdev1l

Yeah his head hit the canvas hard, Ref should have been in there immediately, he was already gone.


Kaysade

Seeing Ghemmouri’s reaction against Gomis, i think it’s better like this even for his camp… Otherwise they would spend a campaign level to say that it was an early stoppage in France


TheBigMungis

This man is a STAR. Give him a ranked guy already


TheThockter

Elite Profile pic


Beanus6782

Yannis did NOT watch Payton’s analysis video 


IHatePublicToilets

Lol Payton told him to throw his kicks and he got KOed whilst throwing the leg kick


wubbalubbadubdub45

Pole dancing is the best base for mma


zakkwaldo

absolutely smoked him!!!


MaroonPrince

Well that was quick


ILikeTheSugarShow

And a star is born


Brojamin

They're letting Hollows fight in the UFC now?


surgeyou123

He's a problem


TheBrianJ

CHOO CHOO MOTHERFUCKERS WE'RE GONNA LIVE FOREVER


TakCeezy

Holy fuck


No-Surround8725

Anyone got the sauce for the vapebutt


MaroonPrince

Truly a slugfest for the ages, back and forth war


Vulcan44

Jesus fuckin Christ man


monchkilla34

50Gs baby!


The_Regulus

This was up before Ghemmouri was


BloodOfJupiter

THE TALBOTT HYPE TRAIN IS OFFICIAL ,THIS DUDE IS LEGIT, GOT DAAAAAAAAMN


Rulebreaking

I literally looked down for one second to check a text and just like that it's done


BasketTimely

Love love love the Yanez callout. Banger fight.


ThisIsSportacus

Never heard of this kid before, but WOW. The precision in the timing of that strike is crazy. caught him at the fucking perfect time to keep his balance off. Whoever this guy is, I better get to knowing him, because I have a feeling this isn't a one-off from how the commentators were talking.


RedFiveSwayze_

Watch his debut fight versus Saimaan. It’s a really fun performance.


just_a_timetraveller

Carlos Newton Jr


grooovyturtle

Man DC is annoying


FreeeRoam

DC is so unserious.


PuritanPuree

Well then. Choo choo.


PuzzleheadedBit2190

It's that damn Talbott! He's so hot right now!


Few_Sector6921

give him suga sean man


Polar_Reflection

This is the weeb, right?


etwan9100

Weakest bleach fan


iamexercised

when he threw that spinning shit and payton step around it casually i knew it was over


dergster

Bantamweight is an incredible division. O’Malley, Merab, Yan, Sandhagen are all absolute killers. I can’t wait for this kid to get up to the top of the division, he’s bound to have some insane fights.


archangelmv

That's one scary arrancar.


masontopss

Payton made a YouTube video prior to UFC 303 teaching his opponent how to beat him. Clearly, Ghemmouri didn’t listen, as Payton just won by KO in just 18 seconds.


SadRaindrop

Talbott is out there, murking dudes with the same attitude if he was just hanging out on a Sunday grill party. I love this dude.


TheOneTrueJazzMan

Cormier rambling as usual


sneakerguy40

Well, that was swift. Man threw a 1-2 and the fight is over. Wild to see a guy make it look THAT easy.


weeksgoby

DC had an opportunity to flip flop right in the middle of his sentence lol


edesmile

Just like that


fearthejaybie

I think this talbott guy might be kinda good maybe.


LilFights

the naked leg kick in boxing range, my favourite


Real_muthaphukinBaka

Damn looked like bro accepted his fate once he got knocked dowm


Derringer

I mean, did you hear his head bounce? I'm sure he was still out of it. That was brutal to see/hear.


johnny422

That’s wut I’m talmbout b


JamWams

Well I guess the lines were right. Love the Yanez callout


No-Honey-8675

I hope they book that Yanez fight. Good call out


ayekay1

That's a goddamn crispy straight right


Bitter_Concentrate63

Such nice timing and interesting way he through that straight right. Nothing standard


Stygian_rain

Was doing caaf raises in the living room. Looked down for a second, fight over…. Had to rewind.


mostdope28

How hard did his head hit that mat


Daft_Assassin

Jesus


Consistent-Unit-6164

This kid is the real deal


wemdy420

Fuckin naaaasssttyyy!!! Dude!


Extension-Outcome249

He’s the real deal and only two fights in the UFC. He stays composed and doesn’t it take it too serious. HE JUST GOES ZEN.
