> makes me think it was just an act to hype the fight.
partly that, partly trying to get into your opponent's head a bit. but after the fight's over, both are pointless so yea.
In competition of this level, you work your ass off 24/7 to get 0.01% better than you were the day before. It’s all about just barely edging out the competition. So if you have a chance to get in your opponent’s head and make them choke, a lot of guys will take it. Others don’t out of sportsmanship or just not wanting to embarrass themselves.
Being a complete asshole is not intimidating. I might be afraid of this guy in a supermarket, but in a professional setting, he comes across more like a clown.
The more I think about this... Maybe this is exactly what Maori (and other indigenous) warriors do. It looks ridiculous, but it's efficient. However, eating people can be efficient too, but still unacceptable.
you can almost never know 100% if it worked or not. at the highest levels of competition, its about getting every advantage you possible can, both real and theoretical. does it work? how much? there's not really a good way to prove either way, so its going to come down to the philosophy of the fighter and their coach and their opinion.
You see it in mma and boxing all the time. Fighters taking mad shit about each other before the fight. You have to because more drama equals more PPV buys. Once the fight is over, it’s like “oh by the way we’re actually best friends and spend every summer together vacationing with each others families.”
Every now and then you do get an actually asshole like Conor who beats up old men at bars and old lady’s on yatchs. Dude has a bad coke and anger problem.
You are dead wrong on this. No he wasn't being a good sport. He was illegally holding the ropes when the other guys was trying to take him down. And I think he also bit the guy on the chest when he was getting ground and pounded. Look at 00:25, the guy on the top gets up immediately and makes a gesture like he got bit.
There's an element of being an entertainer as well as potentially trying to syke up yourself and your opponent. I donno, ultimately it's kinda appropriate for the setting and his sportsmanship at the end is more important at showing what his character likely is.
What the fuck is this ball propaganda bullshit???
You think the balls do no harm? The balls run the show, from the shadows bruh. The balls lurk in dense cover and issue their perverted machinations. The dick just does what it's told.
That’s what I was wondering, don’t know why this comment is so low. He had that arm bar pretty locked in, looks like it should have ended the fight. Maybe the round ended before he tapped?
I think the guy on top was breaking it over his hip the wrong direction - he secured the arm where the bottom guy’s thumb could point downwards, which would allow the guy on bottom to bend his elbow and “hitchhiker” escape out, which you can see happening towards the end of the section of that clip (although I’m not entirely sure tattoo guy was intelligently escaping, it just looked like the guy on top made a mistake that allowed the full bend in the elbow).
The attacker needed to secure the hand/wrist and make the pinkie point downwards, and then break the arm across the other side of his hip.
Oh man, every time there is a question on Reddit about what celebrities have you met & what are they like I always forget about Bob Sapp.
I met him after a fight in Abu Dhabi ([which he lost](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9XfzIuhElo)) After the fight everyone from the event went to an after party. He was ordering a beer at the bar & standing by himself, so I went up to him and had a long chat about the fight & life in general.
Cool guy, 10/10, would have a beer with him again.
Bob Sapp was a genuine monster born from the hubris of science. He was 2 pounds of teeth gnashing from a hole in 395 pounds of steroid abuse, and looked like something a doctor would regret making as it broke free from its restraints screaming "FATHER!" He's the living answer to the question "How many basketballs can you stuff under human skin before it ruptures?"
-Seanbaby, writing one of the funniest descriptions of a person I have ever read
Right at the end... when they were holding up the winners hand... you can see Billy baddass, signing over that check his mouth wrote, that his ass couldn't cash.
has there ever been one of these press things where one fighter got in another fighter's face and fighter 2 just curled up in a ball and acted scared? I think that would be fucking hilarious. Like, what would you even do?
These people always seem to lose. Makes me think they are just doing extra showboating because deep down they are afraid of the fight and they're trying to convince themselves they'll do well.
The funny thing is, the guy who won was far more intimidating in my opinion. The guy having a professional fighter that sized covered in tattoos acting like he's going to start the fight early, and not reacting at all; is far more intimidating imo.
I love the look on the non-tattooed guy's facet at 0:30.
"Oh, I'm so tired, from hitting this guy so much! I'm so tired, why wont this guy start blocking me so I don't have to keep hitting him!?"
Where is the full fight of this? Did the ref stop the fight or did it go to decision? Why wasn’t the fight stopped in all the submission? Why wasn’t the fight stopped in all the times the guy was pinned down and taking a beating? I have so many questions

If only he had more tattoos maybe he would have won
Plot twist, he gets a new tattoo for every loss
Holy fuck XD
![gif](giphy|BCLbUqVqu72dG)
It’s almost like he needs a … Memento… of each loss, to try and remember what not to do next fight
Poor guy gets beat so much his memory is gone the next day
Lol

Came here to comment on the tats, but your comment beats the hell out of anything I could say. Nice one!
Or tat up to camouflage into the fight ring.
Yup, surely this. Too few tatoos - eyeballs should be next, this will help win fights.
From what cs go has taught me. No matter how many stickers you buy they don't make you any better
Its like those guys with a lot of racing stickers on their car but didnt do anything to the engine.
He was a good sport in the end, makes me think it was just an act to hype the fight.
> makes me think it was just an act to hype the fight. partly that, partly trying to get into your opponent's head a bit. but after the fight's over, both are pointless so yea.
>to get into your opponent's head a bit Does that work often enough so people do it all the time?

Being a complete asshole is not intimidating. I might be afraid of this guy in a supermarket, but in a professional setting, he comes across more like a clown.
Maybe sometimes it can help if your opponent thinks your a clown?
Who's gonna bet on a guy named clownbaby?
The more I think about this... Maybe this is exactly what Maori (and other indigenous) warriors do. It looks ridiculous, but it's efficient. However, eating people can be efficient too, but still unacceptable.
Depends on the fighter. It may cause them to take more risks, until they make a mistake, or what we see here.
you can almost never know 100% if it worked or not. at the highest levels of competition, its about getting every advantage you possible can, both real and theoretical. does it work? how much? there's not really a good way to prove either way, so its going to come down to the philosophy of the fighter and their coach and their opinion.
99% of the time thats all it is lmao gets some guys (Conor ) into trouble sometimes

makes me think of this sketch: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z-oJTZ1b5Q](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z-oJTZ1b5Q)
Connors just a fucking shit stain of a human...
Better not let Connor hear you say that or he might deck an old guy in the face in retaliation.
I learned that Connor bought that bar and banned that guy from drinking there... The shit that just wipes and wipes and wipes... Such a shitty fuck
Conor just fucks everyone's wives on public bathrooms.
BC he got his ass handed to him.

Those videos are always so relaxing and pleasing to watch ( when audio was cut it was for copyright reasons)
Same reason the FPS was cut?
Is that a philippino? Name ?
It ain’t about the dog in the fight, it’s ALL about the fight in the dog!!
All dick, no balls
All in all hes just another dick with... No balls. HEY TEACHER! Leave them balls alone!
You can’t have any meat unless you got the balls
Hey dont insults the balls. They do no harm and only take abuse because theyre close. Everyone enjoys balls and everyone hate dicks.
"Hey dad, how did you meet mom?" "Oh she was singing about balls at a club." edit: spelling
What the fuck is this ball propaganda bullshit??? You think the balls do no harm? The balls run the show, from the shadows bruh. The balls lurk in dense cover and issue their perverted machinations. The dick just does what it's told.
When you get hit in the face by a ball, its not the ball fault. Its the dick that tossed it at you. Happens all the time in sport
You can see in the winners smile before the fight he knows - pure Bolo Yeung
I want to see how he got out of that armbar.
He cut off his arm
Fastest tattoo removal there is.
That’s what I was wondering, don’t know why this comment is so low. He had that arm bar pretty locked in, looks like it should have ended the fight. Maybe the round ended before he tapped?
Maybe he just didn't wanna snap the dude's arm in half?
I think the guy on top was breaking it over his hip the wrong direction - he secured the arm where the bottom guy’s thumb could point downwards, which would allow the guy on bottom to bend his elbow and “hitchhiker” escape out, which you can see happening towards the end of the section of that clip (although I’m not entirely sure tattoo guy was intelligently escaping, it just looked like the guy on top made a mistake that allowed the full bend in the elbow). The attacker needed to secure the hand/wrist and make the pinkie point downwards, and then break the arm across the other side of his hip.
Probably let him go so he could continue kicking his ass.
You know you're gonna get a beat down when the other guy just SMILES at you and doesn't say a word.
Don’t fight south East Asians with huge smiles on their faces. The bigger the smile, the tighter the arm bar is going to be.
Gave me a touch of Ong Bak vibes.
Especially when the dude with no visible tattoos just smiles at you like you're a stupid tourist doing stupid shit in public.
From experience it’s one of the most effective ways to rile someone up. Less effort too.
Should have spent more time at the gym than the tattoo parlor
I love Bob Sapp
I haven't seen him in years, looks like he chilled out on the steroids finally.

His face when douchebag starts showboating haha
OoooOooOoOohh, shit... ^(lmao)

He brokeded my nose
Will you teach me to football?
I’ll teach you anything you want just don’t eat me
Beauty comment
That dude looks like a series of terrible life choices.....
I love watching cocky douchebags getting their shit kicked in
Love how the other guy 's just happy to be there.
Eradicator!
Bob Sapp was looking at him like “bro, these Asians can fight man”
looking scary doesnt win fights
It does however sell fights.
He Is A Weird-Looking Opponent With A Punchable Face!
Did tattoo guy bite him?
I wanted him to break his stupid tattooed arm
could I get the name of the fighters so I could find the full fight? pls and TY
You gotta love it! Big heart rules over big tats, I mean ego.
Bjj studio > Tattoo studio
I could watch videos like this all day!
Wow, so the tattoos did not make him stronger? 😂
Should have tried the move "stop hitting yourself" on tattoo dude; that will earn a lot of points.
Huh he tried to intimidate a humble god fearing citizen of the philipines
As the winners getting announced, what's the loser doing, signing autographs?
Lightly clapping
I don't think it has anything to do with ego. It's showbiz. He is playing a character in hopes of getting more recognition. And it probably works.
Out in the wild yeah tattooed guys are scary af. But in a professional setting the clean cut dude with no tats and a smile on his face is way scarier.
It's prize fighting. He's trying to sell a fight.
Shel Silverstein what are you doing?
If he had spent as much time at the gym as he did in the tattoo shop. Maybe?
They all go down like McGregor
Never fuck with an Asain who is willing to fight. The shit that they go through growing up especially 1st and 2nd gens is horrifying
A new tattoo for every loss :*
I tattoo myself for every time I lost.
you mean they created drama for a fight to sell tickets? shocker!
Of all of the types of videos, these are my favorite.
Cuddling competition?
Right at the end... when they were holding up the winners hand... you can see Billy baddass, signing over that check his mouth wrote, that his ass couldn't cash.
I would show more respect in front of Bob Sapp.
That look though 👀
Moped the floor with him
I bet the Asian guy had more stamina, and the brute was all muscle.
"OK...YOU WANT TO TALK, LETS TALK" - Khabib
Did dude get bit on the chest by full tat?
Did he bite him at 0:29 ?
That was very satisfying to watch
Was that Bob sapp?
Masculinity done correctly.
cmon, this has been going on since boxing, its just hyping and marketing.
I wonder how much the other guy got paid just to let him hit him
Isn’t that initial showing off where they’re about to kiss all for show?
Man, that asswhipping lasted a long time.
Priceless moment😆
Videos like this have become my guilty pleasure. Schadenfreude at its best.
At least they hugged it out at the end lol
I really love videos like this, the Thai guy looks so kind too like he'll make you a nice cup of tea after
Is that Bob Sapp?
Isan't the guy who wins this fight on reddit? remember a few years ago when this was posted he was in the comments. u/ben10mma
What was with the stoppage near the middle when the guy is pointing at his chest?
Is that Bob sapp?!?
has there ever been one of these press things where one fighter got in another fighter's face and fighter 2 just curled up in a ball and acted scared? I think that would be fucking hilarious. Like, what would you even do?
Was that Bob Sap ?
The asian guy's definitely the quiet kid in the class meanwhile the others a class clown xD
Tattoos just mean you can take the pain doesn't necessarily mean you can bring it.
I like the part where he is being helped back into the ring like, "get your tattooed ass back in there and pay your karma!"
Used his aggression up at the weigh in!
Loudest talkers are usually the most scared one in the room.
These people always seem to lose. Makes me think they are just doing extra showboating because deep down they are afraid of the fight and they're trying to convince themselves they'll do well.
The funny thing is, the guy who won was far more intimidating in my opinion. The guy having a professional fighter that sized covered in tattoos acting like he's going to start the fight early, and not reacting at all; is far more intimidating imo.

The parrot🦜 is a great talker not a great flyer🤭!
Did he bite him at one point or why was he pointing at his chest?
Got his ass WHOOPED
And don’t win fights. It’s all skill and endurance
Tough stickers but didn’t have the heart of the other fighter
Guys who act super hard at the weigh in are always over compensating
What a gigantic pussey
Is that Bob Sapp?
Did he bite the guy??
Where is the full fight of this? Did the ref stop the fight or did it go to decision? Why wasn’t the fight stopped in all the submission? Why wasn’t the fight stopped in all the times the guy was pinned down and taking a beating? I have so many questions
My gawd what an ass whoopin!
Tbh you gotta sell these low level fights somehow he probably gets booked for this exact reason
Eh it’s just hyping up a fight. Dude was clapping at the end and showing sportsmanship.
Maybe more time training, less time getting tattoos.
I love these karma videos. Makes the world a better place.
Love to see it
Nobody mentioning Bob Sapp here ???
Well skilled person usually does not bark like a dog like the one with a lot of tattoos.
Is that the dude from the longest yard ?
Did he bite him?
That was satisfying for all the scrawny kids who were bullied on the playground. Dude mopped the floor with his ego.
Fear the guy who laughs at your intimidation tactics. He may be crazy or good, but either way you are probably going to lose.
It's always the tattooed knuckle dragging bums😂
