To all the comments about Fedor. We are from Russia, that's why there are some mistakes in this video with the pronunciation. We've noted the mistakes you all mentioned. Next time we'll check everything twice! But as for Fedor's name, it's pronounced the Russian language way. Ok, we got it, people are used to hear the English version of it (with a wrong word stress etc.). From now on we'll stick to an English version of Russian names. Thanks for the feedback!

lol why, if fedor is pronounced that way in russian/ukraine its how it should be pronounced everywhere. fucking americans. they try to pronounce mexican names the right way because of racism claims if theyre not but fuck with german and russian names all the time because no one cares there

There's also the issue of lower body fat percentages being really bad in terms of how they affect strength and endurance. The guy who is shredded is not going to be able to function optimally at that type of body composition without being on gear. Provided that they make weight, the guy who has more body fat at weigh in also most likely won't be in the process of recovering from an intense bout of dehydration, like a lot of fighters do to try and ensure that they're as big as possible without being disqualified.

Got his jaw broken in the 2nd. Landed his shot in the 3rd. We all put at least a hundred on him as he went off at 5-1 underdog odds. We had a hell of a time later that night spending our winnings in Vegas. Don’t let the physique fool you, dude was crazy strong and 2 to 3 moves ahead in his head.

He has a chest the same size as the body builder types, but it looks smaller proportionally. Those seemingly quick jabs aren't really jabs, they are full power hooks. If you remove 3 inches of stomach, shoulder, and bicep bulk, you see the range of movement he actually has is MUCH greater.

Back in the day I sat ringside at the Texas Golden Gloves Championship rounds. In the heavyweight division, a stay puffed marshmallow, no body definition guy that was so white, he glowed. He was like a real life ghost. His opponent who was local looked like a movie star Hercules. He had a large cheering section vs Casper's half dozen. When they shook hands at center ring, you could see the huge difference in size and shape. The bell rung and they met again at center. Within a nano second the ghost threw a roundhouse that came so quick and so hard, it nearly knocked Hercules's head off. He was out like a light before even hitting the canvas.

Thats exactly why weight classes exist. You can pack more muscle and performance per pound in when you dont have the fat. Sure you can be fat and a dangerous fighter. But a muscled fighter of the same weight...will be more dangerous.

To all the comments about Fedor. We are from Russia, that's why there are some mistakes in this video with the pronunciation. We've noted the mistakes you all mentioned. Next time we'll check everything twice! But as for Fedor's name, it's pronounced the Russian language way. Ok, we got it, people are used to hear the English version of it (with a wrong word stress etc.). From now on we'll stick to an English version of Russian names. Thanks for the feedback!
lol why, if fedor is pronounced that way in russian/ukraine its how it should be pronounced everywhere. fucking americans. they try to pronounce mexican names the right way because of racism claims if theyre not but fuck with german and russian names all the time because no one cares there

Chris Barnett is scary. Having such a body properly transfering all of its momentum into a spinning kick might possibly be the most devastating strike a human can realistically deliver.
Can't believe that didn't put him out cold. It's a shame that Barnett only recently entered the UFC at an advanced age. I hope to see him in at least a couple more crazy fights before he retires.

Happened to me. I took a bout with a 265lb fighter while at 215lb, because he had no other options for matchups. I was in bodybuilding shape, he was far from it, and I was the favorite. He shattered my orbital in the 2nd round. I’ve replayed that loss in my head for a decade.
was it an overhand too? cause look like most of these big dawgs use that in all these clips lol

Remember even though these guys carry excess fat, these guys are still extremely well conditioned and powerful, they are professional fighters despite their excess fat
Professional Athletes too.
There's also the issue of lower body fat percentages being really bad in terms of how they affect strength and endurance. The guy who is shredded is not going to be able to function optimally at that type of body composition without being on gear. Provided that they make weight, the guy who has more body fat at weigh in also most likely won't be in the process of recovering from an intense bout of dehydration, like a lot of fighters do to try and ensure that they're as big as possible without being disqualified.

Esch has a secret weapon. His body forces people right into his kill zone, but it doesn't look like they are. He has a chest the same size as the body builder types, but it looks smaller proportionally. Those seemingly quick jabs aren't really jabs, they are full power hooks. If you remove 3 inches of stomach, shoulder, and bicep bulk, you see the range of movement he actually has is MUCH greater.

@@kewltony it was all a play to humiliate kimbo
Gringo Papi? The thiccboy.)?
Butterbean was truly an amazing specimen.
It's always good when you see videos about guys that just look like the average guy
Chris Barnett’s liver kick on that one guy was devastated, all of his mass and momentum went into that dudes liver lol
Or even DEVASTATING
Trained with Tim Johnson back in our home town. We think he still has potential and still a threat in Bellator.
Got matched up against Fedor lol homie caught a rough break dang
@@maxsavagetheshredinator5840 ya it was rough lol
@@Mr.Ripper113 Much respect to Tim Johnson
I trained with Tim at the ACA in Fargo before he left for vegas, that dudes a killer, he’s super friendly and an all around great guy.
I forgot about the Ruso vs Duffy fight, that was such an amazing thing to watch as it happened lol
Great video !
2:10 maybe it's just me but straight emoting on dude's body had me cracking up lmfao
that shit had me dead hahaha
With a little natural ability and a little training a fat guy has ALOT of kinetic energy to transfer to your chin 🤷♂️
True but JDS is the fat guy destroyer he beat Mark Hunt, Derrick Lewis, Tai Tuivasa, Roy Nelson, Ben Rothwell, Blagoy … he literally won every single fight he’s had with a fat guy lol
And a lot of weight to keep you down
3:33 just loves how he gives him a gentle "boop!" to secure the win.
Butterbean is probably my favorite fighter of all time
15 years ago i met the first primitive UFC versions, and TANK ABBOT, what a legend!! He almost always won on that cages without ANY kind of rules or whatsoever
Eric Esch the best, Living Legend- Bullied and picked on, turned it around, having last & loudest laugh! Respect, everyone eat yo beans!!!
I remember that thumbnail so well. My friend's wife thought it looked like a crazy mismatch and I responded "Yeah, Nelson will win easy." She thought I was joking until it happened.
I love the way you can fluently pronounce foreign names ❤👏👏👏
Rothwell dancing over Reem was precious:D
Butterbean is so frightening. It seems like you just run the risk of getting him mad if you hit him.
Awesome video! Just wish it would’ve included Alexander Emelianenko’s knockout against Clay Thompson. The difference’s in their demeanors was hilarious! Still my favorite knockout of all time!
As an old, slow and excessively fat guy, I really enjoyed this video. I was going to give it a thumbs up, but I was too tired. Maybe tomorrow.
Roy Big Country Nelsons right hand was a big fight finisher. The power in that guys fists were incredible. And Butterbean was a knockout legend too. These 2 are my ultimate favourites.
Eric Esch's power + speed was one of a kind. Fighters he dropped couldn't say what happened.
😂😂😂Yup!
Never underestimate the Babe Ruth effect. Mass and momentum from a fat boy kinetic linking can translate to baseball bats, and fists.
Babe Ruth himself was a legend. God DAMN that man had power in him.
To be fully fair - Ruth played when "just being naturally good" was more valuable than almost any amount of training, because the training was so much less sophisticated. Which doesn't take anything away from Ruth, but he just had the technique down.
3:25 that was the most disrespectful slap in UFC I have ever seen in my life bro said “boop got your nose”
Still good for a blow with a fractured arm.
"... Until Stipe Miocic examined his liver..." (6:58) 🤣🤣🤣 Just learned Stipe functioned as a physician.
