is DDP the best trash talk in current UFC?

[TerraRayzing]

So far.
Shut down Darren Till. Cold, no nonsense trash talk where he spoke truth that Till was not going to be anything at MW.
Got Izzy triggered so much that he ruined the goodwill he had built up after the Alex loss. That post fight interview was about 2 minutes long and it ended with DDP getting cheered and Izzy booed out of the building.
Triggered Strickland who was a master trash talker and I commend the two patching things up beforehand but it speaks a lot that Sean had to approach DDP and request him to refrain from furthering the trash talk before the fight.
Completely silenced Izzy in the first press conference. Sure it was short but Izzy was out of his element. And it was later revealed that he shut him down once again during the face off with the dog comment.
Do you think DDP is the best trash talker right now? He's pretty respectful overall but if you initiate it first, he shows no mercy. That line to Sean was cold. He's also decently charismatic and can articulate really well.

 

[13Seconds]

He's up there.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

He's extremely good at getting under his opponents skin yeah, he's also exceptionally calm when making his points.

 

[jeff7b9]

I'm not sure I'd call him the best, but in an era where ridiculous over the top trash talk and obviously prescripted lines are commonplace, I do find his more genuine and relatively toned down approach refreshing.

 

[UFC666]

He thinks quick, that for sure. Good comebacks, i like it.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

He's to the point and brutally honest.

Kind of a douchebag, but that usually can be the case with most trash talking banter and selling of the fights.

Tbh, he's only a douche when someone insults him. He was super classy to Whittaker because Whittaker himself is a classy guy.
Meanwhile, Strickland called him a slur twice. He smiled it off the first time but I think the second time he was pissed, lmao.

Right he doesnt go after anybody he just defends himself.

Izzy was a total wanker to him and got everything he deserves back

Same w Strickland

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

His line about being more African than Izzy was hilarious i thought. He's a good shit talker and a tough, no nonsense fighter, not flashy but damn effective, i'm a fan.

He's a tweener and I fully support him. War DDP.

hes a breath of fresh air and a perfect foil to the emotional immaturity of Izzy and Strickland

Yeah, that's a good point.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Yup he is pretty good because I don't think he has all his lines planned out, it seems in the moment and whatever comes to his mind so it doesn't seem fake and cringe to me.

 

[AmonTobin]

Meh. He's going for the low hanging fruit. Will any of trash talk matter if Izzy kicks his head in then mounts him like a dog or fires arrows into his ass? I think who ever wins the fight gets the last and best laugh.
"Somebody's gonna get hurt real bad."

 

[HNIC215]

People don't like honesty... especially when it makes them look bad.

People also don't like when someone is calm, and you can't get under their skin.

I don't even like care about DDP as a fighter or person but he's not really doing anything wrong here.

 

[Marko Polo]

Yeah DDP is quite hard to dislike. He just matches people

The fact that his trash-talking isn't angry and thuggish makes it the best.
He seems like a genuinely sweet dude, from what I've seen.

Same here.

He read Izzy like a book, knew EXACTLY which button to push, set Izzy off and then sat back and let Izzy make himself look like an ass.

 

[fortheo]

He's a natural. I don't think he's even really trash talking so much as just being himself and not letting his opponents walk all over him at pressers.

I woulda said 'i'd golf your head into the stands'
