I think Charles Oliveira deserves a 50k bonus for his finish. That was a finish in the first round in a championship fight! You don't see that everyday!

Pat Barry's coaching was horrendous. He basically encouraged Rose to do nothing at all.

How did Rose and Carla not get the bonus over chandler? Chandler only put tony to sleep, rose and Carla put everyone in the arena to sleep. Far more impressive.

Oliveira has now finished Chandler, Poirier, and Gaethje all in less than one years' time.....that's pretty damn impressive!

That Namajunas Esparza fight was the worst I've ever seen, neither deserved the belt, they should have vacated the title.

Thank you for giving Charles his PPV points. He is a true professional and tried his best to make weight. No one knows what it's like unless they went through that.

I’m happy to see Charles will still get PPV points. He deserves it after what he just did to Gaethje.

The rose/esparaza fight deserves way more criticism, it's like everyone is being kind because they are women. I've seen fights far more exciting than that one get blasted.

At one point in his career I had written Oliviera off as a young talent that would be a great top 10 fighter but never come close to a championship. This man has leveled up so much its insane. He is the true champion for sure.

I'm glad that Dana recognized how well Tony fought in the first round. He looked really good. But I do think it's time that he fights a couple of people that are ranked a bit lower to see how he does.

Canelo picked the right night to lose because nobody is gonna remember

LOVE the respect Dana is giving Tony.

Islam vs Charles is the closest we can get to seeing Khabib vs Tony. This is a stylistic dream matchup. 11 fight win streak vs 10 fight win streak. Sambo vs BJJ. Make it happen!

Chandler. Poirier. Gaethje. Oliveira gone through a murderer's row of lightweight contender's.

Oliveira... the only fighter to give away his belt on the scale and retrieve it back more or less in one round against one of the very best in his category. DuBronx is a BEAST!

Agree with Dana here. Tony looked real good in rnd 1 against a dangerous fighter in Mike. He got caught with a vicious front kick. No one can take a kick like that.

Anyone who bought the PPV and watched that Rose fight all the way through, deserves to be the straweight champ 😆

Still can't believe El Cucuy went out in the 2nd Rd after touching Chandler up so much in the 1st. A ko can happen to anyone at anytime. Keep your head up Ferg.

Sucks that the tail end of Tony's career's been like this. That Gaethje TKO changed him forever. El Cucuy's legacy is cemented though, he's a Lightweight all time great

Just a reminder that André Fialho already fought 3 times this year, with 2 performance of the night in less than a month, and we are still in early may...

Dana saying “The one” and referring to Weili and Joanna is awesome. Winner better get the title bout.

Thank you Dana for bringing in Micheal Chandler,best move ever!!!This guy is a ball of 🔥!!!

The champ has a name and it’s Charles Olivera from the Bronx.

Glad Charles Oliveira got the bonus. That was a masterclass performance with a sick transition to sub after a combo dropping with failed inverted triangle to a rear naked. The card was balanced out with 2 extremely great fights and 2 boring ones. Vicious kick KO ever seen on par with Anderson Silva. Namajunas vs Esparza was as entertaining as these in video ads.

Oliveira is an absolute monster. I mean he was walking Gaethje down for God’s sake. With every fight he has, it looks more and more like he might have actually had a chance against Khabib. EDIT- Charles has the size to live with Khabib. Clearly a much more powerful, rangier & diverse striker, and if it hits the ground no matter under what circumstances or what round, he could end Khabib night in 10 seconds. I’m not saying he would win but it would without a doubt be Khabibs biggest challenge.

Rose’s corner and especially Barry totally failed Rose. I just kept think holy crap Rose is gonna lose this fight doing nothing. If she was gonna lose she should have fought her ass off and had she done that as I seriously think she would have won,

Oliveiras confidence skyrockets with every fight. Walking down opponents and engaging in technical trades with almost no feeling out process

Fialho’s KO was so sweet too, dropped his opponent like a sack of potatoes. Shlumped. Glad he got a bonus tonight!

thats the most vicious knock out Dana white has ever seen . Since the last vicious knock out he's ever seen

I'm really happy Carla won, she deserved it because she actually tried to take Rose down, and Rose just tried to lightly tap Carla and mostly ran away from her. I'm still a Rose fan but I don't know wtf happened there.

The Champion has a name and his name is Charles Oliveira 🔥

Its was nice that Charles shut down Gaethje. Gaethje said that he would win 7/10 against Charles. That Chandler only landed 4 punches in their fight and it wasnt even close. The reason he lost to Khabib was a time zone thing. I love watching Gaethje fight, but hate how he talks about him self and his opponents.

I do feel bad for tony but look at the people he's been fighting. They're not newbies or unranked dudes, they're the divisions best title contenders.

Just gotta say: Tony should be proud of himself. He did so good. A KO can happen to anyone and people need to understand that. Tony in no way should feel done. He showed he really has so much ability left in him. I'm just glad he is okay with how he landed on his neck, guys can get paralyzed like that in football and stuff. I hope he just brushes off any nonsense fans that give up on fighters when fighters take risks. If someone is showing more signs of being done, that's when you talk about things but Tony is still looking really good. I thought he did great in the first round. It was like opposite of what Chandler vs Olivera was. So I hope he just rolls with it. (2nd, I can not believe that they took away Rose's belt over that fight? No one won that, it should have been a draw, rose should of kept her belt, she didn't "Lose" her belt in my opinion.) (3rd Charles Olivera shouldn't of lost his belt over .5 of a pound! And not even be able to win it back by winning this fight.. plus fighters were talking bout the scale ⚖️ and they really need to get rid of the human aspect of adjusting a manual old scale.. he shouldn't be punished that bad. Especially when if he actually has a chance of actually weighing 155 but that scale was off... Idk) what a crazy situation for all this...

Friendly reminder Oliveira is on a 10 fight win streak, last 5 being Lee,Ferguson,Chandler, Poirier and Gaethje....Yeah maybe just give this guy his belt back edit: Those in comments saying it's 11 are correct, missed out on one

Respect for Dana holding it down for Tony.

I Love how Oliviera kept kissing Red Head Dana😂😂....Dana kept saying you missed weight!😂😂

The champion has a name and it’s Charles Olivera 🔥🔥🔥🔥 a true warrior stand up for the champ 🔥🔥🔥

Tony is no longer the same, seeing him fight again will only put him through more abuse and suffering , and its heartbreaking for us to see that😕

There was a time where Dana would go red and absolutely destroy whichever fighter/s had a performance as poor as the Namajumas vs Esparza fight.

“I AM the best” - SALT ROSE 🧂

I'm glad to see Dana standing up for Tony because he did look good in the first round. Definitely better than his last two fights that's for sure.

"I started zoning out half way through it"🤣

Good that Charles is still getting his ppv points and he should get it for his next fight as well, don't punish a guy so hard for half a pound.

Let's have a fatal 4 way, Gaethje, Poirer, McGregor, and Chandler. Special guest referee Derrick Lewis. Make it so

How Charles didn’t win the 50k he choked this dude in round 1 after dropping him & getting dropped himself

Charles is the best LW. Glad he won and made Gaetje quit who was the one calling Charles a quitter. Pat Barry the groomer must have Rose shook, why wouldn't he let Wittman take charge. Namajunas vs Esparza was awful. Worst fight i seen.

Every time I think about Tony in that first round I get bummed out. He looked great! I was ready to see a war but that’s the sport. Chandler is elite at this point in his career. Happy for him even if he k.o’d our guy

From now onwards he’s Charles no doubt Oliveira. The disrespect towards this man is ridiculous & he continues to show up.

In all honesty, Rose knows what she needs to do in some cases if you're being coached incorrectly she is a professional to know how to alter the plan, unfortunately this didn't happen and the outcome was what it was. No ruthless smart aggression

Tony Ferguson is the most talented/unlucky fighter in any promotion ever 😢❤

18:01 Yes Dana! Joe Rogan thinks so too, Makhachev vs Oliveira is the next LW title fight to make. *100%.*

I feel bad for Tony. Was vouching for Gaethje and Rose. My people lost today. Then there's Drake who placed a bet of half a mil on Gaethje 🤦🏽‍♂️

I look forward to Dana’s reaction after every PPV! Wish he would do fight night press conferences too.

I fell asleep after the second round of the rose fight, did I miss anything? Luckily the boos woke me up in time

lost my respect for rose. I was waiting for her to smash her opponent after the 1st loss, but it seemed like she just didn't care. "I'm the best"? I think not.

UFC signing Michael Chandler is one of the best free-agent signings for MMA ever. Been in 4 exciting fights.

Wait, what? They allow people to 'fiddle' with the scales unsupervised?

Love that we dont see Gaethje on the mic after he was talking about how Oliveira was a quiter 💯😂

Happy to hear Dana said that about Tony Ferguson. "He still looked good, up until he got caught. And in this game anyone can get caught." Well said. Also agree it's time to take some time off. Plus all 4 of his losses are from str8 up monsters.

Dana White... a scale that read in increments of 0.5 lbs can only read +/- 0.5 lbs. Use a scale that reads to the tenth or a hundredth of a pound. 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 or 0.01, 0.02. If precision and accuracy is what u want. Old fashioned scale is stupid when u have a reader there too for a 0.5 incremental scale balance leveling.

CHARLES IS THE CHAMP NO DOUBT ABOUT IT 😤

After the Rose/Carla fight, I felt like the belt shouldn't have gone to either of them. For someone to win a belt with 3 takedowns is embarrassing for the sport. When you're a professional UFC fighter, you have an obligation to the sport. Neither girl met her obligation and neither should get the belt!

Joe Rogan is right✅. It's time for Charles vs Islam💥💯. That'd be the ideal Tony vs Khabib 2.0 we all craved to witness🤩😍. Dariush can fight someone else from Top 5

"Anderson Silva was always my friend" - sad Dana

I need to see Volk vs Holloway 3 … also happy for cookie 🍪 Monster regardless if the fight was awkwardly bad . I think the problem is that both of them grew so much.The feeling each one another out took longer than anticipated.

This weight thing was planned idgaf, Charles even looked back at the guys like wtf when he weighed in at 156… something stinks.

How does Charles not get performance of the night?

Dana White is the blueprint on how sports press conferences should be run. He answers directly and commands the room.

Dana is the best president the ufc could have . I love the way he handles these post fight interviews

Honestly, the only lightweight title match that is going to be intriguing will be Charles Oliviera vs Islam Makhachev. Stop entertaining Conor Mcgregor bs.

The rose/esparaza fight was a complete disaster and needed to be talked about a lot more. Imagine winning a title with one punch thrown.

Very glad Charles is getting his PPV points for this fight.

Conor is the ghost who haunts the UFC

I’ll be interested to see whether the UFC uses this ambiguity over the 155 title as a way of getting McGregor into the mix. Be it him fighting before Oliveira comes back for an interim strap, or him fighting Charles for the interim strap. They can probably sell that matchup far better than a straight up title shot.

22 fighters weigh .5 pounds over. Give him the belt back. He deserves it. They rigged the back stage scale. All 28 fighters thought they were under weight but weighed in .5 pounds over. Gaethje calling Charles a quiter after tapping to a choke (quiting), priceless!

Dana should’ve kept it 💯 on rose. He would’ve crucified any other champ for that performance.

Charles Oliveira é o melhor do mundo 🌎🇧🇷🥋

Islam vs oliviera is the ONLY fight to make. Islam is on a 10 win streak and ppl are getting second cracks at the belt before he even gets his first. Dana got something against the man and is still complaining that Islam needs one more fight. I swear chandler or conor will get another shot before Islam gets one

Dana looks mad...He wasn't happy with this event...But I am happy for Charles Bronx

didnt realize the ufc banned the flags over the russia issue. Smart move for pr and atleast they banned all flags not just Russian ones

Anderson Silva deserves more appreciation for what he has done for MMA. In the end UFC just gave him hard fights and was not willing to pay him any longer. Dana is wrong. Imagine adesanya will happen the same.

"The champion has a name, it's Charles Oliveira" 💯✔️

Insanity that Oliveira didn't at least get performance of the night if not he and Gaethje for performance of the night.

Give Charles his title back then chief

Tony should’ve retired after Olivera, pass the torch and move on to bigger and better things. There’s no reason for him to keep risking his health when he’s obviously on the other side of the hill now.

Dude that was insane the way chandler knocked Tony out after he got rocked himself. How the heck could olives have gotten rocked the way he did, and still came back and choked out Gaethji. Insane.

We took $567,000 at the door, $56 million at the gate , pay per view was $67 million, fighter bonus for best fight $56

I remember massively underestimating Chandler when he was announced as the backup for Khabib vs Gaethje. Man was I wrong.

Conor versus Tony makes more sense. Both coming off multiple losses

So Dana, are you saying the scales were messed with?…just gunna get a guard for next time and move on? Ok sure why not Tony got robbed

Tony vs Diaz . At least he deserve a decent payday

I can't imagine UFC without Uncle Dana

ngl before this fight I thought Connor had a chance against Charles cuz he’s so hittable. Now, man I think he’s got no chance. I feel bad for Gaethje, but Charles won it fair and square.

12:46 As soon as I heard his voice I knew a Volk question was coming

why people dont understand that activity is everything in sports, conor is not the same fighter because he fights veryyy rarely, i am a big mcgregor fan, but chandler is a very hard match up for him and i am afraid he will not handle chandler, chandler is a beast

I like how he basically admits the scales get messed up and they need a security guard there as if they were just gonna let this continue to be a problem if a situation like this didn’t blow up

Metric is simply a better system of units than imperial.

this is the moment dana accepted charles into his heart.

Thank you Tony 👊🏼
