I laughed my ass off. The guy is different, to say the least.

Ha ha! I love Diego...

…but this one goes to Penn I think.

Man, he’s the kind of crazy that BJ pretends to be to make his opponents think he is.

Ah, I missed this...

are there any websites to watch this on (legally). I know I’ve seen it on mmamania before.

Haha, I’m stupid. Shows how much I go to the actual UFC website. Thanks!

This is something I invented, I call it the Yes Cartwheel. Yes! Yes! Yes!

This guy is gonna snap one day, no joke. Every time he speaks he gets more and more intriguing, in a “What makes him tick” sort of way. I would love to see a psychological write up on the guy…

Just watched this..

You ain’t lying. Diego is one strange dude.

It’ll be interesting to see how he reacts if/when BJ beats him. Seems like he truly believes he’s already the champion or is destined to be anyway. I think he’ll be crying in a pool of his own blood ala Joe Stevenson.

I just love that he says he invented it. What kind of invention is saying “yes!” while doing cartwheels? But he’s so earnest about it, it’s great.

The more crazy Diego I see, the more of a Diego fan I am. He’s just a fucking lunatic and you have to love it.

I bet that he knows the attention "YUS!" received, and just decided to add fuel to the fire.

I’m not saying he’s not crazy, but this looks a little contrived to me.

He basically admitted this in an interview with Ariel Helwani, saying “that’s just some Diego entertainment for you guys” or something like that.

But it’s still really endearing to me, that he would think “what can I do to please my fans? I know! A Yes Cartwheel!”

by JRN on Dec 11, 2009 10:02 PM EST up reply actions  

Crazy!

YES….he’s crazy! YES he’s a very good MMA fighter. YES YES YES!!!

Couple of bucks!

I should ask him for a couple of bucks…..he has to say YES YES YES!
