His last two fights have been so amazing. Best boxing/clinch game ever in MMA.

2:40 of this one is so ridiculous

OH BOY THREE YEARS. Hahahah the fact that you can say someone who has fought all of the best fighters in the world over a 15 yr professional career, competed in the olympics, and never been knocked out once has no grace or style is completely ridiculous lol

I didn't mean it in the mma sense of "style" but in the sense of doing things with styyylle. Of course he's a great fighter, he's just not as captivating as he could be if he was more than just a guy who's good at fighting

I remember actually the first time I saw mma was on a new year's eve when I was really little, there was a ppv of every UFC event up to that point, like 12? and I stayed up all night watching it with my dad. All of the good old times where guys in gis would always be horribly beaten by men without gis. and super tall men would beat tiny men to pieces

lol watching the profound sadness overcome my old-fashioned bjj trainer from when i was younger as his gym went from an all-gi traditional bjj gym to a bunch of dudes in swimming trunks or w/e trying to do anderson silva shit was pretty heartbreaking

hahaha That sounds really sad. My friend Cameron was really serious about mma and had a couple of fights, and I went to his gym a few times and rolling on a mat is so physically uncomfortable. I don't know why you would do it for fun. It's a lot less uncomfortable to be punched in the head and body than to be ground at weird angles against the floor

I did muy thai and judo for a while and then did bjj and i think judo is without a doubt my fav. Better than MMA (altho all i did in mma was spar a couple times)

Pride was really favourable for him, since they gave him a lot of cans to beat up. Then he went under M1, which allows him to make millions doing nothing at all, so when he finally had to fight good heavyweights in Strikeforce, it had already been years since he had a legit challenge. That and the sport has been rapidly evolving, so you can't be a natural middleweight fighting at heavyweight anymore.

Agreed. He's one of the best ever but by no means the best ever. Best fighter in professional japanese mma? Definitely.
