Thank you, thank you, thank you UFC!!!! Always been a fan of shogun since ufc 97 when I saw him beat chuck. He’s always been a legend! Been a struggle to get people to understand how good he is. So thankful to be able to see him get into the hall of fame! Thank you UFC!
In addition to all the great words about this legendary fighter - a truly good person and nice guy with positive energy, which you don't always get in the fighting sports.
My all time favorite MMA fighter! Such a shame injuries had such an affect on his career, once he joined the UFC. He did look absolutely incredible on his run from UFC 97 to UFC 113. I'm glad he's being inducted into the HoF! This had me teary eyed. The chant at the end. Amazing video!
Lenda !! Sou super fã suas lutas me tiraram de uma depressão quando meu pai morreu devo muito a ele Deus abençoe ele sempre !!! Torci quando era lutador e torço por sua vida fora dos ringues !!! Obrigado pelo que fez por mim e pelos amantes da luta !!!!
When you have two of the most funniest, always joking guys like Moicano and Costa looking straight to the camera and being serious about the admiration you're career inspires in them you know you're legendary. Well done Shogun, one of the greatest 205ers ever, a true pioneer of the sport conquering everything in Pride before 25 and then becoming the UFC undisputed champion. Injures ruined his late years, like they did with Cain, but his historic achievements will remain forever.
That 2005 Grand Prix run was legendary. Perhaps the greatest tournament run in the history of the sport. Old timers know. Shogun was Jon Jones before Jon Jones. This young 20 year old dynamo that was just destroying the top legends of his era. Shame that his ACL’s cut his physical prime short. He still made it work and managed to become a UFC champion regardless though. Hell of a career.
2005 LHW Grand Prix. Was the betting UNDERDOG in all 4 of his matches. FINISHED all 4 opponents to win the tournament. And most people wasn't even watching MMA back then. ESPN didn''t even post ANY articles about MMA at all.
2 time Hall Of Famer. Congratulations to Shogun. You deserve it.
His fight with Rampage is nuts. The guy was a savage back in Pride and managed to win a UFC title way past his prime.
Lies again? Football Club USD SGD
Shogun is a legend.
ABSOLUTE LEGEND SHOGUN TANK YOU FOR ALL SO MUCH RESPECT ❤❤❤
Shogun Rua is THE ONLY reason I started to learn mma at 13. Forever my number one favorite fighter! 🙌🏽
Each time I think of Shogun: 1) The close first fight with Machida then knocking him out in the second fight. 2) SOCCER KICKS!!! ⚽
Oh man. And his incredible fights with Dan Henderson. Such a epic career
That’s it. When I think soccer kicks I automatically think of Shogun

Chills... I have been watching UFC since early 2000s. I have 4 favourites of this whole time. Shogun, GSP, Cain, Khabib
Good choices my friend. They are killers inside the Cage but humble classy gentlemen to look up outside.

쇼군은 날 즐겁게 해줬던 2000년대의 선수 중 하나
Does Shogun Hua know Jon Africa?
The mythical Mauricio Shogun "Hua".

People might be more skillful nowadays. But he was fucking a violent man. A real MMA fighter
Absolute legend pride fc and ufc hof
If someone’s deserves Shogun is one of these. And we want a new fight with Arona!
2005 LHW Grand Prix. Was the betting UNDERDOG in all 4 of his matches. FINISHED all 4 opponents to win the tournament. And most people wasn't even watching MMA back then. ESPN didn''t even post ANY articles about MMA at all.
The real deal
Thank you gladiator
The reason I became a fan of MMA was because I accidentally ordered PRIDE in 2005 and saw Shogun win the tournament. I wish they had expanded on that!
His fight with Nogeria and Henderson are the best fights ever.
1:12 chaos does it better 👍
legend
Who cut onions in here!?!?
Hua!! Did a Soprano's fan write the title!?
Sophanos
@UFC edit the title of this video. Absolutely disrespectful to misspell a HOF’s last name
Idk why people hate this guy, hes a great person and a goated fighter
SHOGUN
🥹👏
Mauro Ranallo legend himself
he didn't duck the up and coming Jon Jones. Always an idol of mine, for his determination and heart.
War Shogun. was he in the stadium when it was announced?
yes, he was. it was legendary.
Finally
Looks like can Velasquez 😂❤
wait isnt his name Mauricio Rua? why do they call him "Hua"?
its spelled hua but its written Rua and looks like they messed it up and thought its written hua which idk how they were able to do
Bro im muay thai too💀💀
I miss the shogun pride era
Congratulations and well deserved Hall of Fame induction for Shogun Rua 👏👏👏👏
Rua
After watching the Japanese series. Dude deserve it
Where's machida in UFC hall of fame?
That's Heally great
OG Bad boy
Ah yes shogun hua
Muito mais do que merecido. Parabéns Shogun e muito obrigado!
Shogun HUA? Thats the first mistake. The second was Alexandre Pantoja is the FEATHER weight champ
*SHOGUN RUA
🐐
You would think that an organization inducting someone into their Hall of Fame would have enough respect to get their name right.
I’m still baffled why both Dan Henderson and Frank Shamrock have not been inducted!!
Rampage needs to be in there
