[@benryan8713]

hes my all time favorite. watching this back in the day was a lightbulb moment for me. id never seen anyone like me who had gone through basically the same thing i did growing up. i felt a connection to him that i wouldnt have if i hadnt seen this show. i realised fighting wasnt for me and that i needed to fix myself and focus on my mental health. i wish he woke up to himself. he should have been a hall of famer imo. his KO of the axe murderer in 30 seconds has to go down as one of the greatest KOs in history.

Chris leben is a legend. Koscheck may have won the battle but chris won the war. Went on to the ufc and became a legend and fan favorite. A true warrior. And koscheck went on to be known as a snake and coward who fakes illegal knees and trys to get free wins by faking fouls

[@gunarannders7797]

[@dickhitswater4836]

I went to high school with Chris and on the same wrestling team and while he’s a little wild on the show he was always a really good dude. Used to have his hair grown out into a giant fro and would play a harmonica and sing in the dressing room, kind of a goofball for someone who was so damn tough. Glad to see he seems to be doing good these days.

[@dickhitswater4836]

@DarthDingleberry I know he had a few dust ups, the only one I remember (long time ago now!) was a kid that decided to mess with him and Chris finally pushed him and squared up but the other kid wanted nothing to do with it all of the sudden. Honestly fights didn’t happen much there, it wasn’t a neighborhood school and you had to apply to get in, find your own way there because they didn’t have buses and it was a trade school so it was kind of a unique environment and most people got along. He says in the video he went to school with gangsters but we didn’t really. Portland was pretty mellow back then, nothing like it is today. He didn’t play any other sports that I recall. He was in my German class and the teacher called him Chris Life (Leben in German is life). Funny how you remember dumb stuff like that.

[@dickhitswater4836]

@DarthDingleberry That’s awesome! I do remember that fight, that’s rough to go out and fight like that but a warrior for doing so. Lots of good influences in the combat sports world and like you said, many people would be in jail or dead if not for some of those relationships they built through it. Even just as a wrestling team we were brothers and had each others back, later when I boxed it was the same thing. Leben had some amazing fights and that Martin KO was unbelievable he looked half out of it. His Akiyama fight was good too. Those days of UFC were really fun, glad you were able to be a part of it! Any idea what Kalib is up to these days?

@@KyleDad the strikeforce champion thing needs a LOOOOT of context. Strikeforce had just setup for MMA that year, with a non-existent LHW pool. It was for an inaugural vacant title - Bobby had just come off a NC and a loss and faced off vs an old Vernon White at the end of his career with a 24-29 record, also coming off a loss himself. Basically two bums coming off losses that fought each other for a happy meal. Bobby had one decentish win, vs Ruiz, who he also lost to. Everyone else he beat were no-names.
