It wasn't the same Overeem unfortunately, his behaviour and body language and confidence was all gone when he fought Ngannou. When he used to be a gym bully you could tell he acted different, this is around the time when he fought Lesnar, Bigfoot, Travis Browne, Frank Mir, he was so smug, just look at him.

Kinda dissapointing Joaquin Buckley isnt on this list, dude got kicked out of every gym he's ever been and wanted to fight James Krause for not taking him in lol
Probably not as well known, dude was a one hit wonder with his spin kick KO and then proceeded to get his hype train derailed by a fighter on a three fight skid who knocked him out with a head kick.
Used to see Ken shamrock in the 90s at warehouse party’s, raves, bars etc. most the time, was the only person walking around without a smile on his face.
He was in a brutal roid filled business, dafuk would you expect him to go around feeling jolly and being friendly? He just came their to bust a nut quick and go back to training. Don't bitch about a guy being rough when he comes from a rough world.
If I was an MMA business owner, I would be sweating bullets if stuff like this was happening at my gym. The fact that no one has had to settle a lawsuit or been arrested for assault is a fucking miracle. The whole thing is gonna blow up in their face once it starts.
Have you heard of “waivers”? Common practice in any combat gym. You aren’t entering a gym without signing a waiver that makes sure the gym is not liable
@@yeshuasage3724 I dare disagree.....same goes for a lot of other fighters and sparring partners but in training there normally is an unspoken code not to use dirty tricks and unnecessarily injure each other. Alistair is known for not giving a shit and causing uncalled for damage.
bro... it's the netherlands tho. their standards in most gyms over there for aggression are way harder than the average north american kickboxing gym. even if you're a kid, your partner is going 80%, which is usually the norm. again, it's just their kickboxing culture. so no wonder overeem looks like a bully, he grew up in that environment, the same with alot of dutch kickboxers/mma fighters. it's the north american fighters that choose to be this way that stand out more.
TJ damn near killed himself making weight for 125, completely unadvised. I'd have loved to see TJ and Triple C fight at 135 though, Fight of the Night written all over it.
@@madgavin7568 I believe that Henry would have crushed him at 135. Henry could even possibly been 145 pound champ if he really wanted to go for it. IMO
As someone who respects the heart and forever burning determination mixed martial artists must have, this stuff has always been infuriating. I got into martial arts because of bullies and shit, to see this high school attitude take place, with approval of some people I respect, it’s the opposite of what this sport is supposed to be about.
I am not a martial artist of any sort, but I could imagine a lot of the wrong kind of people get into combat sports as an excuse to beat up on people. You’d like to think that the ones who are already successful would weed these guys out, but unfortunately a lot of them can manage to be successful despite having the wrong motivations.
Well MMA gyms are super new things. A lot of people who were into Krav Maga and all that edgy " i wish i was in military " shit would join those back in the days. Personally never did MMA, only boxing. If a coach would put me with advenced/semi-pro/pro lads on the first day i would just leave... Getting hurt is one thing, being bullied is other. If u are near this envoirnment just leave there is plenty of places to train martial arts. Also probably i would suggest not to go straight away to MMA Gym, but go to specialized stuff, muay thai, boxing, bjj, grappling. Those schools are old and have reputation to uphold. My first real sparring session where me and fella went properly at eachother was after 4 months of training btw. We were equally bad so it was great!
Been to a couple MMA gyms to see if I could get into it, but without fail they all ask me to step in and spar with a guy who's training for a fight on day 1. The question "What does that do for him or me?" Yeah, that usually goes unanswered.
His gym was very bad. A lot of gyms were like that but you only end up with a very small amount of people to train with. This is why there seems to be not a lot of actual MMA gyms around.
yeah.. im gonna have to go look that one up immediately. wtf? That guys got some srs stupidity to be saying some shit like that publicly (let alone think it).
@@emjay2d Where he lives or amongst the people he's around that might have been a common or preferred sentiment. Sounds insane in the west (and is insane), but after his last fight where he looked God awful, maybe he's not expecting to fight outside ACB anyway 🤣
@Mal Theri someone on reddit (with actual proof he has trained with Buckley) also said Buckley came to his gym and was going really hard on amateur guys
i use to compete at 145 (no weight cut) and one of my training partners was a guy named Roger Hollet. we sparred a number of times before his ufc fight against that deaf guy (this was years ago). He was one of the worst people I ever sparred and probably cut my career short. there are a lot of guys who spar like its a fight. i mean, i get it, but roger, you were literally twice my size, nearly 300 pounds and 6 to 8 inches taller. didnt need to try and take my head off constantly.
The only teammates I ever see defend Overeem were either way outside of his weight class (and thus, not regular sparring partners) or were just to dangerous for Overeem to bully.
I don't know, Overeem was always cool he is just very large and explosive. I don't think he was a bully so much as just a competitive guy. Arlovski was a very good guy too though, I think the difference in training methodologies between the two created some resentment but it is what it is.
Before I even played the video, I had a feeling that Matt Hughes and Ken Shamrock are going to be on this list. Little did I know they will hold the first 2 spots. It's not that I was aware of their brutal training methodology, I didn't hear any stories or anything, it was simply an educated guess based on their personality, ego, and the impression they leave.
@Moises Hernandez_Portillo sure ... but that’s from past success ... since I mean he’s slapped an old man , beat cowboy but can’t beat anyone else, he’s definitely getting hit by karma and loads of humble pie
The Ricky Story rumours are true. There’s video of it and him admitting things went too far post ufc career. Mostly because he got his ass kicked in the gym by a teenager.
I used to train with a guy who just would injure everyone and act like it was no big deal. He claimed that is how you have to train to get better. Just ignorant.
Yes people like that should be banned I knew a guy at our gym who would go as if he was in championship fight even if the partner was new he dislocated someone knee in their first class eventually everyone just refused to spar with him as we wanted to train get better fit and healthy and not be put on the disability list by this prick coaches told him to leave
Truth is he is no different than the average person in charge of things in general. A narcissist and sociopath. He is like those people that tell new people they ain't putting in the work when they dont understand how to do something.

@@quickstep2408 dude. This was fucking years ago. I fucking left and went to another gym. Also, a bit of a pet peeve of mine is people using a presumptive framing. I was never lacking in "standing up for myself'". Typically that isn't enough. Best to stick it to there wallet.
I’ve seen lombard throw emotional psychotic tantrums many times in the gym, even against guys that weren’t even fighters that were just there to do fitness heavy bag classes on the side.
You're not born a bully... Getting no love from your parents and getting picked up by other Kids makes you become one... This is why they end up bad, not karma... They fucked up since childhood.
@@sandersgeorges - Hughes is an asshole and all, but there's also a reason Tim Sylvia was so unpopular when he was active as a top heavyweight. He would constantly talk shit about other fighters, Fedor in particular. And it might seem weird considering how hated Fedor is by newer fans/casuals, but at the time he was pretty much untouchable. So neither fans nor fighters took kindly to big Tim's shit talking.
I'll send this to the next person I hear circlejerking about how humble martial arts makes people and how "Getting tapped out every totally day kills your ego, maaannnn."
Despite not even being a fighter, Josh Fabia probably gets my pick for being the biggest gym bully. Dude literally hung Diego Sanchez upside down and beat the crap out of him and chased him around the octagon with a real knife.
Getting put through a gauntlet of hard exercise, getting submitted a bunch, and cleaning the gym sounds a lot better than taking knees to the back of the head from TJ
@ nobody said lions den didn’t respect taps, they definitely would let a submission go if you tapped cmon man these guys are leg lock specialists. They wouldn’t compete if they didn’t respect taps
As much as I always heard matt was a bully... the documentary that involved his family explaining how he was pre and post accident is what really showed me what's up... kinda known as a tool even by his children. Sad.
I fight at 135 and 145 and my favorite thing about gym bullies is that there is almost always a fighter several weight classes up or even below ready to humble that bully. On a few occasion I've been the fighter delivering that humbling blow.
I think Lion's Den's methodology was inherited by japanese pro-wrestling dojos. Training in New Japan Dojo was insane. There were guys who were literally killed there.
@@7seatea7 ^ Hacing been their. Yes. It's supposed to be more like small steps. To build someone up. Though at TA ("brown belt") you just have a giant fucking ego. Pecking orders work to a point (belt systems) and being able to deffend yourself at anytime? Ok I get, and apreciate that. Good idea actually full thumbs up. Belts or ranks or tittles only hold weigt of if the respect is earned. Such as do you have the actual skills, or just someones cousin.

@@DavidPerez-rq1sd - I don't know, Ken's methods of training were archaic/not adapted to modern MMA (no BJJ, bringing a bodybuilder to be the team's nutritionist, weird drills, etc), but at least he gave it a honest shot. Guys like Rampage Jackson (in his second season against Rashad in particular, he wasn't _that_ bad against Forrest) or Roy Nelson didn't even try. It sucks because I've been a fan of Roy Nelson before he even entered TUF 10, but his season against Shane Carwin was a disaster, he barely even showed up to train his guys.
Haven't seen one minute yet but Ken Shamrock is the first name that comes to mind. He tortured his own adopted brother Frank. I remember him as one of the worst bullies.
My cousin was a serious gym bully. He took the same mentality to the streets and got shot. ATL ain't trying to hear any of that. They sell guns down here like bags of cheetos at the corner store.
@@MrFranckWhite My friend is 6'6" about 290 lbs...use to be a defensive lineman in college. The DeKalb county police asked him to join the force and he said...h3ll to the no. He knew he'd be the first one to get shot because of his size. All the metro Atlanta cops are kinda shrimpy or average sized at best because anything bigger ain't nobody trying to fight. When a big muscular cop pulls up they shooting him first and dealing with a court case later.
@@ZyroSugar Ronnie Coleman was a cop in California where gun laws are extra strict. ATL has ridiculously loose gun laws. I'm a non-violent ex felon and I own a gun permit and a gun. No other state has a law where a non violent ex felon can have a gun permit if you stay clean for 10 years after your conviction(now, if you leave the state it doesn't apply but if you stay in G.A. you good). Georgia is straight up gun country. Ronnie Coleman would have caught a hot one down here dawg...frfr.
Yeah, because potentially concussing and damaging the joints of your training partners is totally awesome🤦 I get doing it unintentionally when you're enthusiastic to get at it with no ill will intended, but it just seems so calculated and premeditated for some of these guys.
Hughes has always been a bad guy. Funny how people feel bad for him now but had nothing to say when he was beating and intimidating his wife and family.
1) Boxing GOAT Charlie Zelenoff 2) A decent amount of the old-school Gracie family 3) The most lovable and admirable MMA fighter of all time, Viacheslav Datsik
Worked with a girl that went to high school Hughes. When she noticed I was a ufc fan she told me how Matt and his brother were her high schools biggest bullies. She told me so many stories about them being straight up assholes. Made me dislike Hughes forever.
@The Tyro of Toriyama it was YEARS ago. I don't even remember the girl's name. For all I know she was full of shit but this makes me believe her more. Just remember her telling me that he was an asshole and him and his brother were always bullying kids and picking fights and she wasn't surprised to see him in UFC. She genuinely seemed to despise him back when I was the only person I knew in my town that was into mma so I've always believed it. Edit: I live in a military town and she was a young Marine's wife back then.
I tried a new gym in my area and there was a guy who hit me a good 4-5 seconds after the bell, so as soon as the buzzer went off after round 2 and he put his hands down round house to the head, gotta bully the bully
I was a new guy at ATT had a sparring session w Lombard he prob droped me like 5 times can't remember, most days he would come to sparring no one Would train with him so he would just hit pads or lift weights 😂😂, all the stories u hear about him is absolutely true😂
Tito Ortiz was actually a great coach, shocking I know. He cared about the fighters and was even well-spoken at one point. Brock Lesnar also did a really good job despite not having much experience in MMA. Urijah Faber, probably because he had a lot of experience coaching already before he went on TUF. The best coaches were probably Chuck Liddell, Randy Couture and Forrest Griffin.
2:45 Absolutely no one should be surprised by this. There is a growing cabal of Muslim fighters in the UFC who would condone this sort of this, even if not publicly.
Matt Hughes autobiography actually made me dislike him and I was also disappointed because the book never went into his training or fighting philosophy or favorite positions, submissions, etc.
Honestly, it makes me happy to know that most of these fighters ended up not as successful as they could have been, and it was probably because of them doing shit like this. When you bully newcomers, it doesn't make you any better and you end up not developing the skills needed to fight guys as good as you (see Hector Lombard). Or, it ends up damaging your body beyond belief if all you do is try to hard spar your teammates (Overeem).
I got kicked out of my gym just for front kick KOing some girl who was new while we weren’t suppose to be kicking, but my coach always tells me to be unpredictable, witch is pretty contradicting considering she never seen the kick coming?
While I don’t agree with their method, this happened because the guy had a professional match coming up, but he had not been going to training and was not clear about if he wanted to take the fight. I think Dustin and the coach went harder to prove he wasn’t in shape and the kid agreed and pulled out. The rest of the documentary they seemed chill together. I think that gym just really didn’t tolerate skipping training when they had matches coming up.
*I can understand more for bigger guys because it's hard to find other big guys in the gym to spar with.* Also, sometimes it's difficult because either: 1. You don't know how much harder you're hitting against smaller guys and 2. Because you're so big you have to exert more explosive force to be able to move (esp. for knees and kicks). But Overeem does strike me like that dude who does those things.
Well... if i was ever to encounter such a bully... i would bully him instead, feed him his own medicine and make him regret his bullshit in the worst and most painful way possible.
This video kind of reminds me of. I once saw a video of 2 fans meeting an MMA fighter in public. Someone commented the fighter looked awkward talking to them. Someone responded "He punches people in the face for a living. I'm sure he's a normal level headed guy in society"

Used to see Ken shamrock in the 90s at warehouse party’s, raves, bars etc. most the time, was the only person walking around without a smile on his face.
He was in a brutal roid filled business, dafuk would you expect him to go around feeling jolly and being friendly?
He just came their to bust a nut quick and go back to training.
Don't bitch about a guy being rough when he comes from a rough world.

@@yeshuasage3724 damn dude, you keep that razor blade nearby dont cha?
If I was an MMA business owner, I would be sweating bullets if stuff like this was happening at my gym. The fact that no one has had to settle a lawsuit or been arrested for assault is a fucking miracle. The whole thing is gonna blow up in their face once it starts.
Have you heard of “waivers”? Common practice in any combat gym. You aren’t entering a gym without signing a waiver that makes sure the gym is not liable
It’s happened. A bjj instructor recently got sued for millions cause he paralyzed someone during practice.
Here in the Netherlands it's common knowledge that Overeem is a bully in the gym
True.
Can you blame him, he got brain damage from 20 years of fighting and sparring.
The guy is in no place to be judged
@@yeshuasage3724 I dare disagree.....same goes for a lot of other fighters and sparring partners but in training there normally is an unspoken code not to use dirty tricks and unnecessarily injure each other. Alistair is known for not giving a shit and causing uncalled for damage.
After seeing this video if he really did stuff like this I’m glad he got destroyed by volkov.
bro... it's the netherlands tho. their standards in most gyms over there for aggression are way harder than the average north american kickboxing gym. even if you're a kid, your partner is going 80%, which is usually the norm. again, it's just their kickboxing culture. so no wonder overeem looks like a bully, he grew up in that environment, the same with alot of dutch kickboxers/mma fighters. it's the north american fighters that choose to be this way that stand out more.
TJ got bullied by Triple C and that was so satisfying.
Never got why people thought that was an early stoppage he got dropped like 4 times and was getting hit.
@@idonthaveaname4911 People being TJ ?
@@GinkgoPete TJ fanboys at the time and Triple C haters
TJ damn near killed himself making weight for 125, completely unadvised. I'd have loved to see TJ and Triple C fight at 135 though, Fight of the Night written all over it.
@@madgavin7568 I believe that Henry would have crushed him at 135. Henry could even possibly been 145 pound champ if he really wanted to go for it. IMO
As someone who respects the heart and forever burning determination mixed martial artists must have, this stuff has always been infuriating. I got into martial arts because of bullies and shit, to see this high school attitude take place, with approval of some people I respect, it’s the opposite of what this sport is supposed to be about.
I am not a martial artist of any sort, but I could imagine a lot of the wrong kind of people get into combat sports as an excuse to beat up on people. You’d like to think that the ones who are already successful would weed these guys out, but unfortunately a lot of them can manage to be successful despite having the wrong motivations.
Exactly. It literally defeats the purpose
Well MMA gyms are super new things. A lot of people who were into Krav Maga and all that edgy " i wish i was in military " shit would join those back in the days.
Personally never did MMA, only boxing.
If a coach would put me with advenced/semi-pro/pro lads on the first day i would just leave... Getting hurt is one thing, being bullied is other. If u are near this envoirnment just leave there is plenty of places to train martial arts.
Also probably i would suggest not to go straight away to MMA Gym, but go to specialized stuff, muay thai, boxing, bjj, grappling. Those schools are old and have reputation to uphold.
My first real sparring session where me and fella went properly at eachother was after 4 months of training btw. We were equally bad so it was great!
@@fmspjanus boxing has the same stories
@@fmspjanus yeah you never want to go to a gym they pushes you to spar of god forbid compete before you’re ready
Been to a couple MMA gyms to see if I could get into it, but without fail they all ask me to step in and spar with a guy who's training for a fight on day 1. The question "What does that do for him or me?" Yeah, that usually goes unanswered.
Lol that's insane. Did you have any experience at all??
Jesus I didn't realize Hughes was THAT bad...I'm glad he survived the train crash but damn after hearing that its hard to respect him
His gym was very bad. A lot of gyms were like that but you only end up with a very small amount of people to train with. This is why there seems to be not a lot of actual MMA gyms around.
he mutiltaed little animals for fun too, psychopath
Pereira slapping the hell out of Imadaev now seems so much more awesome
Oh shit I forgot about that. Yeah, fuck that guy. Good on Pereira for that.
Thanks for the reminder, and now I know what fight I'm gonna watch next
Tbh all those lnbreds incluiding khebab praised the incident, but khebab is a cash cow

@@emjay2d Where he lives or amongst the people he's around that might have been a common or preferred sentiment. Sounds insane in the west (and is insane), but after his last fight where he looked God awful, maybe he's not expecting to fight outside ACB anyway 🤣
If Joaquin Buckley getting banned from every gym in his zipcode isn't on this list, then I don't know what is.
As far as I know Krause is the only person that's actually made this claim tho.
He's probably not too big of a name to be here. I imagine a lot of lesser-known fighters go hard in gyms.
@@mmaclipsuknow yeah how can he compete with star power of Zelim Imadaev
@Mal Theri someone on reddit (with actual proof he has trained with Buckley) also said Buckley came to his gym and was going really hard on amateur guys
@@mmaclipsuknow is it just a coincidence that you and Mal Theri have the same profile pic.
Joaquin Buckley? James Krause claims he's banned from every big gym in St. Louis
He's the first one that came to mind
To many people to choose from i guess :D Besides Buckley was not even a thing before the KO of the year.
The funny thing is the majority all of these gym bullies I've seen get destroyed in real fights.
i use to compete at 145 (no weight cut) and one of my training partners was a guy named Roger Hollet. we sparred a number of times before his ufc fight against that deaf guy (this was years ago). He was one of the worst people I ever sparred and probably cut my career short. there are a lot of guys who spar like its a fight. i mean, i get it, but roger, you were literally twice my size, nearly 300 pounds and 6 to 8 inches taller. didnt need to try and take my head off constantly.
The only teammates I ever see defend Overeem were either way outside of his weight class (and thus, not regular sparring partners) or were just to dangerous for Overeem to bully.
Or in Cowboys case just a fucking nutjob haha
@@zakgunning1 also fits in the "2 small to be a regular sparring partner" slot
His teammates at Elevation love him
I think Lombard is full of shit about Barnett too. From everything I’ve heard Barnett is a really good coach.
I don't know, Overeem was always cool he is just very large and explosive. I don't think he was a bully so much as just a competitive guy. Arlovski was a very good guy too though, I think the difference in training methodologies between the two created some resentment but it is what it is.
Before I even played the video, I had a feeling that Matt Hughes and Ken Shamrock are going to be on this list. Little did I know they will hold the first 2 spots. It's not that I was aware of their brutal training methodology, I didn't hear any stories or anything, it was simply an educated guess based on their personality, ego, and the impression they leave.
Yep same
Agreed. I had never heard any of the Matt Hughes stories either, but when his name popped up, I was like, "Well, that's not a surprise."
Knocking each other out in training and then wonder why you're getting CTE...
Conor really was out here smokin the women in the gym too😂😂
Makes me proud and grateful that from day one my gym made me feel like I belonged to a home
You could change the title to "Top 10 Fighters I hope catch a life altering injury in the cage".
i wish injury on no one but if you break the trust with your training partners and try to hurt them when they dont expect you to go 100 f you
Matt Hughes seems like the kind of guy that would be pissed he was DQ from that list.
Couple of them did already lol. But no in the cage
Bwhahahahaha
Suprised that Colby Covington wasn't on the list. Literally everyone from American Top Team hated him and wanted him gone from there.
If you don’t believe in Karma ... just think of where each person on this list is at right now.
Oddly very satisfying 😎
@@nabillahlabat5570 agreed
@Moises Hernandez_Portillo sure ... but that’s from past success ... since I mean he’s slapped an old man , beat cowboy but can’t beat anyone else, he’s definitely getting hit by karma and loads of humble pie
Matt Hughes was hit by a fucking train. Karma took a massive shit on him
@@Willrobert92 bro , INSANE !
The Ricky Story rumours are true. There’s video of it and him admitting things went too far post ufc career. Mostly because he got his ass kicked in the gym by a teenager.
I'm gonna watch the cowboy combo on story now.
"It was meant to be touch sparring but he was immediately met with spinning elbows and flying knees" loool that really got me 😭😭😭😂😂😂
I used to train with a guy who just would injure everyone and act like it was no big deal. He claimed that is how you have to train to get better. Just ignorant.
Yes people like that should be banned I knew a guy at our gym who would go as if he was in championship fight even if the partner was new he dislocated someone knee in their first class eventually everyone just refused to spar with him as we wanted to train get better fit and healthy and not be put on the disability list by this prick coaches told him to leave
Truth is he is no different than the average person in charge of things in general. A narcissist and sociopath. He is like those people that tell new people they ain't putting in the work when they dont understand how to do something.
@@realamericannegro977 the dude wasn't an instructor, but one of the instructor/owners was enamored with him. The instructor was alright guy but could be snobbish.

@@sandersgeorges Hes just not elite but was in a weak division so he became champion and that made people mad so they voice it.
@@sandersgeorges - Hughes is an asshole and all, but there's also a reason Tim Sylvia was so unpopular when he was active as a top heavyweight.
He would constantly talk shit about other fighters, Fedor in particular.
And it might seem weird considering how hated Fedor is by newer fans/casuals, but at the time he was pretty much untouchable.
So neither fans nor fighters took kindly to big Tim's shit talking.
I'll send this to the next person I hear circlejerking about how humble martial arts makes people and how "Getting tapped out every totally day kills your ego, maaannnn."

I think Lion's Den's methodology was inherited by japanese pro-wrestling dojos. Training in New Japan Dojo was insane. There were guys who were literally killed there.

Oh good god yes. "hard" sparring? good idea thumbs up their. Trying to kill new hopefulls? no.
@@7seatea7 ^ Hacing been their. Yes. It's supposed to be more like small steps. To build someone up. Though at TA ("brown belt") you just have a giant fucking ego.

@@LaughingJokerProd ehhhhhh
Ken was the absolute worst coach in the history of TUF.
@@DavidPerez-rq1sd - I don't know, Ken's methods of training were archaic/not adapted to modern MMA (no BJJ, bringing a bodybuilder to be the team's nutritionist, weird drills, etc), but at least he gave it a honest shot.
Guys like Rampage Jackson (in his second season against Rashad in particular, he wasn't _that_ bad against Forrest) or Roy Nelson didn't even try.
It sucks because I've been a fan of Roy Nelson before he even entered TUF 10, but his season against Shane Carwin was a disaster, he barely even showed up to train his guys.
@@randallflagg3700 I actually like Rampage, but he was an awful coach also.

Hughes has always been a bad guy. Funny how people feel bad for him now but had nothing to say when he was beating and intimidating his wife and family.
Rousimar better be nice to the Nogueiras, they have that "kill you with a machete" look.

Worked with a girl that went to high school Hughes. When she noticed I was a ufc fan she told me how Matt and his brother were her high schools biggest bullies.
She told me so many stories about them being straight up assholes. Made me dislike Hughes forever.
Go read his Book. It's worse than that
@The Tyro of Toriyama it was YEARS ago. I don't even remember the girl's name. For all I know she was full of shit but this makes me believe her more.
Just remember her telling me that he was an asshole and him and his brother were always bullying kids and picking fights and she wasn't surprised to see him in UFC.
She genuinely seemed to despise him back when I was the only person I knew in my town that was into mma so I've always believed it.

2:45 Absolutely no one should be surprised by this. There is a growing cabal of Muslim fighters in the UFC who would condone this sort of this, even if not publicly.
Nothing worse than an egotistical sparring partner, thankfully not many of them.
Matt Hughes autobiography actually made me dislike him and I was also disappointed because the book never went into his training or fighting philosophy or favorite positions, submissions, etc.
Honestly, it makes me happy to know that most of these fighters ended up not as successful as they could have been, and it was probably because of them doing shit like this. When you bully newcomers, it doesn't make you any better and you end up not developing the skills needed to fight guys as good as you (see Hector Lombard). Or, it ends up damaging your body beyond belief if all you do is try to hard spar your teammates (Overeem).
Nothing worse than a gym bully , it makes training a shitty experience
heard stuff about Matt Hughes's book.....i was so happy about the train "accident" and still am.....he has no heart, pure evil
I got kicked out of my gym just for front kick KOing some girl who was new while we weren’t suppose to be kicking, but my coach always tells me to be unpredictable, witch is pretty contradicting considering she never seen the kick coming?

Joshua Fabia is an angel after watching this
The only reason he doesn't actually beat people up is because he can't
More like a fallen angel
We gona forget about the documentary Dustin was in, where he beat up a kid for being late to training?
link pls ?
Send link
Link brother please
While I don’t agree with their method, this happened because the guy had a professional match coming up, but he had not been going to training and was not clear about if he wanted to take the fight. I think Dustin and the coach went harder to prove he wasn’t in shape and the kid agreed and pulled out. The rest of the documentary they seemed chill together. I think that gym just really didn’t tolerate skipping training when they had matches coming up.
The documentary is Fightville. If you search “Dustin Fightville” you can see the specific training clip
Damn karma really handled matt hughes huh
🚂🚂🚂
*I can understand more for bigger guys because it's hard to find other big guys in the gym to spar with.* Also, sometimes it's difficult because either: 1. You don't know how much harder you're hitting against smaller guys and 2. Because you're so big you have to exert more explosive force to be able to move (esp. for knees and kicks). But Overeem does strike me like that dude who does those things.
Well... if i was ever to encounter such a bully... i would bully him instead, feed him his own medicine and make him regret his bullshit in the worst and most painful way possible.
This video kind of reminds me of. I once saw a video of 2 fans meeting an MMA fighter in public. Someone commented the fighter looked awkward talking to them. Someone responded "He punches people in the face for a living. I'm sure he's a normal level headed guy in society"
Tbh lotta fighters seem normal tho. Its just a sport like this is always gonna attract idiots and insecure people too.
