Can an Average Joe beat a UFC Fighter?!

[@redundantfridge9764]

There is nothing average about that Joe.

[@Gabrong]

right, average joe doesnt have years of self-defense training (whatever it was) experience and not preparing for his first official boxing match

[@makoshark7122]

He's tomorrows Joe

He did bare knuckle in prison, obviously he's not average

[@AntonAdelson]

As someone who lived in Australia, he's average by Australian standards! I live in Israel now btw... Nati is smart as an average Israeli but he's definitely fitter than all of us!

The fact that Jordan was still third & couldn't compete is insane, very impressive...

[@nhattuyenvodieu3103]

I really wished that injury didnt happen. jordan not only did pretty good in the challenge but also tried to stay in a bjj mindset. i udnerstand all the strife that people have with some bjj aspects in regards of self defense but jordan being consequent with his approach gave bjj a good opportunity to grow. im definetly not going to lie down like he did against knife attackers but maybe it is smart to train upkicking from time to time - just to have that tool in your tool box.

I couldn't help but laugh when Craig let Ranton go because he thought he was tapping and then put him right back in the headlock when he said he wasn't. It was a perfect comedic moment amid all the tense fighting.

[@simkoning4648]

@@JeffPhillipsSelfDefence How is it not dangerous? I just went back and watched those matches, and it looks like it's at least 3 meters up, which is enough to cause serious injury or death if someone lands on their head or back. Half of all fatal construction worker falls occur with drops of 6 meters or *less*. Granted, you were standing there and unless the competitors are psychopaths, they're not going to intentionally throw someone over the rails, but still.

In all honesty, if there is a draw each person should get one point. All the effort to draw then get 0 points seems unfair. Maybe a win gets 2 points and a draw gets 1 to each participant.

If I’m being honest, season one was better. Season two just felt rushed, and like a lot was left to be desired. To their credit, I know there was a lot going on behind the scenes that made it incredibly difficult for Rokus to get it edited and put out. All in all, still a great season and here’s to hoping that season three surpasses season one and two.

The prospective lineup for season 3 is wildly superior to previous seasons. Its hard to go against Natan, but the guy from Canadian special forces has got to be the favorite in my book. When Gabriel Vargas is the "middle of the pack" you know its a tough field.

I think the difference in the Jesse/Natan and Natan/Ranton is that both Jesse/Natan landed, but nothing solid or decisive either way. In Natan/Ranton, only Natan landed, (2 punches, good knee, good elbow) and Ranton had nothing going. I think the knee and elbow could have been decisive if not pulled.

The Jesse-Natan fight was a draw in my opinnion too, it's rough, it's a point based competition, you gotta give points, but there also wasn't any serious damage done and the fight was stalling, neither guys were in any significant amount of danger troughout the fight, other than the possibility for Natan falling from the leg kicks, but that's a big IF and he did have the dominant position in the grappling. Both guys had a chance to do fight ending damage but neither did, if we go by the "self defense", both guys won the challenge avoiding significant damage so you either gotta give points to both or neither.

@phantom2faddd242 Same. Primarily Muay Thai and BJJ, and I have some amateur MMA experience. I am also realistic enough to recognize that guys like Natan and Jeff Chan would merc me with minimal difficulty, haha. With that said, I still think it would be an amazing experience, so I'd be on a flight to Australia in a second if invited to participate. Even with my training, I'd still consider myself an Average Joe, though, cuz most of the participants LIVE for training and martial arts, whereas for me it's definitely more of a hobby at this stage in my life. And I've never really considered making KZbin content, but I think anyone who has those aspirations should give it a shot. What's the worst that could happen?
