That rutten jump was the funniest thing

[@rdvass]

[@snrnsjd]

Hahhaa

[@ZigmasOfSamogitia]

@@rdvass being a showman and entertaining is a masculine trait

[@mattflynn8643]

6:40 words no man ever wants to hear

[@VienerSchnitzel69]

1, 2, Bas is coming for you

[@atrocious_pr0xy]

... No fuckin' lie, dude.

[@AustralianKickboxer1]

Sometimes no jump is better than any jump hahaha, great fight none the less!

[@987P123]

he could have done some of those spinning tornado twisters

[@JackMarci]

Hahahahahah the final jumps!

[@aaronn6725]

Bas, you have no idea how many times I’ve watched these fights now. Everyday for the past 3 weeks Ive been watch them over and over every night. Starting from 1 to where ever I get before I sleep. Your the man. Thanks for all these fights and commentary

[@amramjose]

I like Bas narrates both his mistakes and successes with total honesty and detail. A great athlete and sportsman.

[@hendoballs]

One two Bas is coming for you...three four and your on the floor.Great fight!

[@jsans2520]

It's crazy to see Bas do more BJJ type submissions from bottom guard, just makes you think how complete and dominant of a fighter he really could've been

[@joshcanny]

haha those jumps

[@SeanLarsDogma]

Best Rutten jump ever.

[@Gorgey]

These videos are swell. Keep kickin ass, Bas.

[@jitsu5489]

I wikepedia'd all Bas's fights, gonna watch everyone. Awesome.

[@diowk]

that rutten jump was freaking hilarious.... all it lacked was jazz hands

[@Larrypint]

4:50 Fly like a Butterfly literally

[@andonguyen7970]

That Rutten jump at the end... Can we blame your wife for that lol.

[@heavymeddle28]

Bas is a fucking machine

[@grin64]

They all knew not to stand with you. Ground is all the chance they had.i see how it made you a better grappler.

[@81realtime]

Amazing Rutten was so successful with takedowns and takedown defenses below his opponents’ abilities.

[@Joossetube]

all the comments are about it already, but those jumps! I'm laughing so hard

[@Larrypint]

fly like a butterfly....^^

[@caseyalexander1705]

A pulled groin is absolutely nothing to fuck with. And you fought with that? Respect.

[@danilounali4825]

💪💪

[@RockLee679]

Bassssssuuuuu uuuuuttteeennnnnn

[@travman261]

OMG 123 Bas is Coming for you! some serious shit

[@KaezerMusik]

it is amazing in japanese culture, how everybody is so quiet in arenas

[@atrocious_pr0xy]

Kaezer Musik... I wish the western culture had more respect. Instead, it's just a bunch of drunk assholes who even boo at ground game.. Here, you get to hear the hits and their feet stomping.. You get the full effect. Also, I feel it disrespectful the fighters to scream. It may break their concentration.

[@jpgrumbach8562]

Amazing is that in western culture people feel the need to copy any comment again and again.

[@SRV03101954]

And in the red corner....

[@ceounicom]

i think Bas says so a few different times, but its notable= I don't think in ~27 fights he ever had a single takedown, or really even tried. I think there were a few grapples where he was on top when it got to the ground, but it seemed immaterial to his strategy.

[@icookyorice1]

Yea that guy could have done alot more to escape that armbar

[@nsane87]

Hey Bas, do you still train with Kevin James in Thousand Oaks? I live just over the hill in Ventura county. I'll have to go check out a session one of these days..

[@ANGRYGREEKMANYO]

Padawan where is that at ? u guys all at cali ?

[@retter2critical]

If you think he could have gotten out of it, does that mean it could have been a worked fight?

[@Kinosis79]

He probably just didn't want to take a chance of a serious injury. Those guys were fighting all the time back then. Better to live to fight another day.

[@MetalGamer666]

He tapped a bit early.

[@herbthompson8937]

It's called being smart, knowing when you've been beat, why risk a broken elbow or snapped tendon

[@danyoutube7491]

@@herbthompson8937 I think by that point he was also plain out of ideas and, not having come close to getting a submission going on Bas that I saw, he probably felt continuing was futile. Plus appearances can be deceptive, it may have been more uncomfortable than it looked.

[@shanelikespaint4088]

Takaku Fuke gave those jumps a thumbs down.

[@thinkcivil1627]

The guy had fear written all over him and he spent the entire fight trying not to get hurt. He was gone before he stepped in the ring.

[@BallJuiceOfZeus]

I am first. Bow before me.

[@adam68591]

Bas was first

[@tharushafernando6688]

Rope escpe is terrible and fucking unfair 😂😂

[@romanoonamor7690]

Thinking that you have to submit your opponent 3 times just isn't right. You can have him twice and still lose. Thqnk god that rules didn't survive

[@atrocious_pr0xy]

I point at my groin the same way when my girl wonders why I busted so quick
