Gilbert Yvel - The Most Aggressive Fighter in MMA

[@bluntrapture]

Nice work. Good video. I especially enjoyed the extremely rare skill in the voice-over --- of shutting up sometimes and just watching the fight.

[@BridgeportIPA]

The guy looks like an athletic and talented fighter against subpar opponents, but seemed to lose against fit fighters who could take it to the ground.

[@chicoholtzclaw2628]

I kinda can see how someone could say that but , I would have to disagree with that kuzz from wut I saw there wuzz like only one fighter that got him to the floor that actually won a fight against him out of the small handful of fighters they showed trying to take him to the floor in that sort of documentary . Or did I miss Something ? I Kno I'm just a girl but , I have ❤️ boxing 🥊 since I wuzz a very little girl . & took to mma since I wuzz a very young lady & still follow both today ☺️🤙🏾❤️‍🔥.

[@jimmyneal1988]

Gilbert fought and won against many extremely talented fighters, Pedro Rizzo(Brazilian jujitsu/knockout artist) and Houston Alexander(knockout artist) were both top 10 contenders, Gilbert beat both of these legends and many more

[@fmilton20]

Gilbert was more of a kickboxer and was also really good at breaking out of the ground game or even changing the momentum in the ground game. He was there for a lot of the rule changes and when BJJ became a lot more common in the sport. I think he should of trained more in it for sure.

After watching this video I read about him on Wiki for further information. Yvel wasn't as great as this video portrayed him to be. He had a temper and had several disqualifications, one involving punching and kicking a referee. He had also been refused a license to fight, on a few occasions, due to his poor sportsmanship. Just goes to show you can spin a situation either way in these videos depending on the focal clips used.

Yvel had insane potential, but his mentality was shit. I knew him personally. His athleticism was thru the roof, and so was his fighting spirit, but he did not care how he won as long as he won. He had no sportsmanship at all, he knew it and he didn't care. His coach (who had also been mine 20 years earlier) did everything he could but Gilbert was incorrigible. He himself ruined what could have been a great career.

No way. Techniques and fitness has increased a lot. Look at the first fight where opponents do not know how to clinch or look at the ground work. Modern fighters are far more complete. Old fighters where proffesional bar fighters with big balls. Modern fighters are highly trained proffesional fighters. But nothing but respect for the ealy era of MMA fighters. They where still beasts.

The game has changed substantially even since 2013 when I retired, lots of different training techniques, that people did not know or we’re just not doing plus the science behind the sport is insane now! But I don’t think it is as simple as saying one era would completely beat the other era, some fighters are timeless and if we took the best of the best from the mid 2000’s at their prime and gave them all the recovery tools and supplements, and showed them how to throw a calf kick and some other shit we were not doing back then there could be some competitive fights

Nothing to do with any cage/MMA fighting at all). And that is not even approaching guns, or teasers, or any kind of pepper sprays or a small can of tear gas (screw that noise, that is like a different level approach).

He had some of the best knees in the business, Great standup fighter, and he rounded out his skills later in his career with a respectable ground game, He fought in an era where MMA was stacked with killers, with a resume of Hendo, Josh Barnett, Jeremy Horn, Don Frye, Big Daddy Goodridge, Vitor Belfort, Tamura, Wanderlei Silva, and more, I think he is worthy of a place in the Hall of Fame, the only thing that might keep him out was his dirty fighting, He's not the only guy out there that did or does fight dirty, but its some of the stuff you saw here, like trying to kick an already down TKO'd and semiconscious fighter in the head type stuff, MMA is a fringe sport that is still frowned upon in some circles and Gilberts in arena actions are the type of thing that gets latched onto that MMA organizations have to combat in the PR department.

Melvin Manhoef, A.Overeem + his older bro, Bas Rutten along with so many others (that'd it take way too long to try to type out all their names) who all share crazy good skills & abilities (and sometimes they are equally crazy in the head, not that it's a bad thing as often they are mad but still when they are not at war they are some of the nicest people that you could hope to meet) have or are elite kickboxers/amongst the very best that the sport has seen, some transition well into other combat sports, others either don't or they are not as successful when say grappling becomes involved but the striking game and in such a large percentage of them whether born in the Netherlands/Holland, born in one of the formerly colonized territories or a combination of having a Dutch parent and a foreign parent it's quite staggering. Even in a number of cases if they were not actually born there or had family from there but they moved to the Netherlands at a young and during their formative years growing up and began training to kickbox from an early age. Not strictly related but still on topic, Only last month or the month before there was news that reported that either three or four absolute scumbags and very far from intelligent thieves were casing Melvin's home of all the dumb decisions to make, yeah try to take his stuff, I'm certain y'all know the outcome if you heard and saw the news, Melvin had a fight coming up he was training for in the middle east and those weasels thought they'd try to hit it whilst he was away but Melvin is too smart to get done like that if you anyone didn't hear and see it then go check it as the PRIDE legend did not let them get away which is exactly what anyone with half a lick of common sense would know about a BMF such as Melvin plus thriving rats like that are just the lowest of the low. Honestly, I simply can not fathom/imagine trying or even thinking such a thing through and then coming to the conclusion that such an idea and bloody far beyond stupid plan will work out well, it's a bit of a shame that such dregs are pretty much always spared at the mercy of people who happen to have become masters of using their limbs to be able to really quickly and easily destroy another person or persons. God bless Melvin, Bas, the Reem brothers, Gilbert and all the greats, far too many to name all of them that have and will continue to hail from or have trained from a young age in Holland as it is has delivered us multiple generations of combat sports greats, long may it continue and nothing but love and respect to all.

It's not easy when you're that engaged to follow certain fight rules. This is MMA. It is not boxing, where you can't use your feet or a rear naked choke, or an arm bar intended to break your opponents arm. You throw elbows and everything else. If I have a guy on the ground trying to get up, in a real MMA street fight, everything is allowed to stop the guy from engaging you. It is hard to turn that self preservation mode off, when you are that engaged. I don't think it is intentionally being dirty. They even sometimes kick in the groin, but it is not intentionally being dirty. Sometimes they are really engaged and their kicks go low. There were really strange rules in some MMA fights, like for example, you couldn't hit with closed fists. If I hit with a closed fist, am I dirty, or just fighting how it is natural to me, and I am in monster mode, and trying to destroy my opponent before he destroys me, and I forget for a second? So, it's not really being dirty, or trying to be dirty.

So let me get this straight. The first time someone lands an illegal blow to Gilbert its immediately declared contest but in virtually every fight the Gilbert is landing illegal blows the fight just goes on. What a bunch of shit.

[@chromebooktest1128]

although the same thought went through my mind... the circumstances are clearly different

[@jlev505]

You can tell Gilbert got soft looking around year 2000. 97-99 is when he looked and fought the best.

[@notanundercovercop8851]

He fights like someone playing a fighting video game who just button mashes. But, it works. Amazing!

[@robertduransongcovers4401]

Win or lose this guy kicked ass.

[@gqloc6768]

He was a great fighter! One of my favorites of the NHB era!

[@jjones7837]

Just remember how effective eye pokes are.

Браво парню с татуировкой на плече, который как мальчишку уложил Гилберта на канвас!

[@HarlanHarvey76]

Very fun to watch but I can't help but notice that he lost to every elite UFC fighter he faced. Dan Henderson✔️Don Frye✔️Vitor Belfort✔️ Junior Dos Santos ✔️ Jeremy Horn✔️ He would have lost to Wanderlei Silva if he didn't get hit in the junk He beat Chiek Kongo and an old fat Might Moe. Definitely a badass dude!! but an elite MIxed Martial Artist?? imho 🤔

[@billielachatte4841]

He peaked early n went crazy.

[@keeledover4218]

people dont like the truth harlan 😆

[@michaeldunar8986]

Thank you for that! HE IS A CHEAT!

[@LiberalsReadmyBio]

@@billielachatte4841 Exactly what happened. Every human has a peak age depending on many circumstances including injuries

[@Keeping-It-Real-55]

he definitely lost to some of the greats. but by God every opponent woke up and remembered who they fought that's for damn sure. he pretty much went to decisions on all the fights he lost 👍 and I don't think wanderlei Silva wanted to fight him. so a quick brutal ball kick got him out of that. just my opinion of course. 🙄

[@Kroggnagch]

4:40 I admire the man's heart to want to keep fighting, but that shoulda been stopped immediately after he got up and the fight started up once again yet he didn't do anything except cover up and hide. He wasn't looking for openings to counter-punch, he wasn't shooting in to try and clench and stop the barrage, he just kinda.. hid.

[@nothingfree3524]

This video should show him with some REAL opponents !

[@maps6263]

Awesome video. Great video set ups. Lastly. No bullshyt

[@kswan2234]

So you can kick and knee but not punch? Didn't know that..

[@kalebstrickland7701]

You can punch

[@coreybarnwell2621]

You were allowed to punch. They just didn't to protect their hands since it was bare knuckle. A destroyed hand is a career ender

[@kalebstrickland7701]

@Philosophy_First yep

[@jamessalas9220]

I cld take him. Give em a call and set it up !

[@coreybarnwell2621]

@Philosophy_First I must have misunderstood. That was just the impression I got from Joe Rogan and Bas Rutten discussing it in past interviews. I've never actually looked up the rules until now. I know I've seen closed fist punches occasionally make contact to the head and not get called. The ref must've either not seen it or let it slide because it was always in the midst of a slugfest

[@webcityguymyclubb4032]

The problem with professional fighting is that you get older and your opponents get younger.

[@luceatlux7087]

it's so funny how you don't realize what an advantage being young is... when i was 18, i naturally felt i could counquer the world in a day and thought i would always feel that way... now I'm 39 and just want to lay down all the time and relax. no more need to prove myself to anyone...

[@webcityguymyclubb4032]

@@luceatlux7087 Can still relate to conquering worlds. Only difference being that it’s gonna take longer now because going down escalators makes me dizzy. FYI, If you’re still looking for a place to lay down and chill…just sayin’ I like to lay down and chill too, lol. (Btw - isn’t it progressive how I can use a cheesy line to both sexes at the same time without specifying a gender preference?)

[@californiausa7622]

Wow he was incredible''

[@jennings1611]

I literally punched the like button when he said it 😂 and it worked 😆

[@SchizmKing]

I can't take all the slapping 🤣

[@WildernessDude2024]

It's not slapping, he extends his hands and fingers covering much more surface area of the opponent.

[@capncrunch9053]

Love his comradery. Not cocky... just a good fighter. Great vid.

[@FuneralProcession]

It looked like a triple balls kick. Very impressive!

[@rong.thej.d.5969]

exactly

[@bones6173]

Way better than tanks documentary way better than fries documentary or Connors documentary all of them this by far was the best hands up to him

[@kevinlewis8162]

how come you didn't show us his knockout loss to junior dos santos ??

[@WesloTheHandsome]

Probably as Yvel had already been Fighting since the Mid-90's, Cigano during his Prime versus a Middle Age Man whom was already on his Way Out during the Launch of Pride, and hadn't had a K-1 WGP match since before Overeem transformed into Ubereem and Proceeded to Run K-1 w/ Teixeira/Spong/Saki/Bonjasky/Hari and then Running Brock Lesnar in MMA albeit it after 7in of Intestine was Removed mere Mnths Beforehand...yeah it'd been 25yrs of Fights before Cigano wanted Some❗💯

[@WesloTheHandsome]

P.P.S During the Golden Glory/Mike's Gym/Holzken gyms Peaks, everyone from Manhoef/Saki/Hari/Schilt/Aerts/Ubereem/Spong/Yvel would've all Put the Smackdown on Junior's sloppy Brawling and very Lacking basic Defense/Slipping Ability it'd have been Goodnight Irene😴 every 8/10 times Fought w/aforementioned Dutch❗💯

Yvel used the same technique every time: kneeing his opponent in the face while holding the head.
