[@NicholasGuccione]

Werdum exhibited some of, if not THE most incredible BJJ skills I've ever seen. (lying on the floor, "waiting for the paycheck technique"). Outstanding skill.

[@TheKickboxingCommunity]

Pulling guard must work well in a street fight too

[@rocket5557]

This is why kicks to a downed opponent need to be allowed

[@lucas123196]

Concordo 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

[@ricardoferreira2038]

Soccer kicks yeahhh

[@sopedrada6066]

Mais pode só não pode na cabeça

[@karlmartin849]

They did back in the Pride days. Which was way more exciting than modern mma.

[@Shkorp93]

Room temperature IQ take. There's a reason why no one does this werdum stupidity anymore. Literally giving both ankles to your opponent do do whatever the fuck he wants? Lmao

[@himoJ]

What is underated is Overeem's takedown defence!...

[@turkeyman631]

Gotta love the old Strikeforce fights... Any Alistair fight is great.

[@chonqmonk]

Dude, are you blind or did you comment first, watch after?

[@slorebear1]

raise your hand if you like mauro ranallo commentary. *7billion people look around*

Juice overeem

[@codymachado]

​@@chonqmonkI enjoyed this fight ..

[@The_Isaiahnator]

Overeem was breaking throws like a Tekken expert.

Dopado, cheio de anabolizantes

Werdun ja entrou na luta cansado😂😂😂

[@edmaradkins]

Rsrs 😆

[@clarasoares1476]

Q nada babão

[@dcjelly]

Overeem looks like a younger Overeem inside of a huge Overeem Superhero suit

[@RobsonBogard]

Não sei quem se joga mais no chão, o Neymar ou o Werdum.

[@RobsonBogard]

Luta horrorosa

[@jmartins664]

Os dois!!! 😂

[@templodofogoedoaco4537]

​@@jmartins664😂😂😂😂😂😂 vai vê fazem parte do mesmo time. Uma coisa é o cara ser bom de chão outra é ficar se jogando e ainda abrindo as pernas. Bom de submissão foi o Minotauro. Brigava em cima e levava pro solo, mesmo não sendo bom strike não fazia papelão

[@wanderleydias5716]

Werdum

[@wanderleydias5716]

Tem gente que paga para ver o werdum doideira

[@user-ml9pm3ut9b]

Strikeforce was the pinnacle of MMA in my opinion. Great personalities in the ring, great commentators on the mic and just top notch overall. I liked it better than the UFC for sure, and even preferred it to PRIDE Fighting Championship

[@rodrigoramone242]

Pride manda abraços 😂Pride sends hugs 😂

[@user-uc7xi8nw3z]

Один боится в стойке,другой боится в партере...,Сошлись два крутых парня...

[@axelruntschke]

This fight was most likely the worst display of "BJJ Black Belt" in the history of mixed martial arts.

[@rocket5557]

Look up Ryan Hall versus Tourpuria

[@erikmorales17]

Kron Gracie 😂😂

[@anonymous05389]

Kun Grace

[@celsoleal4500]

Werdun pensando..."vou trabalhar hj mas não tô a fim, preguiça"..kkkkk

[@kellyandrews9757]

You had to be there for this Era. Overeem was a killer... people were petrified to fight that man. Just to see werdum legit trying to kill this man, fresh off submitting Fedor in his fucking prime, is brilliant. Juiced up Overeem and Werdum is fighting that man like he's food is incredible. Werdum is a beast bro

[@TheAntManChannel]

4:05 🤣🤣🤣 The Meme

[@gui1123321]

Werdum envergonhando o jiu jitsu quase implorando pro cara entrar na guarda, vai lá e derruba porra

[@douglasbonet692]

É judoca ou cria do wrestling agora é?😂

[@diadiadopadeirofabiomarque1852]

Verdade

[@diegogesley3102]

Exatamente. Ficou muito feio ele deitado no chão toda hora, implorando pro cara entrar no jogo dele, como se ele fosse fazer algo muito foda, mas quando ia pro chão, não acontecia nada. E cadê a capacidade de derrubar o cara, pra entrar no jogo dele?

[@mateusuribe7]

Derrubar um brutamonte igual o Overeem nessa época não era ora qualquer um ​@@diegogesley3102

[@ktortega4846]

​@@douglasbonet692ese Werdum siempre fue cobarde...

[@pascalbertaud927]

Ubereem still looking pretty fearsome at times. I t might not have been the fireworks folks expected but Werdum at this stage was big scalp!

[@penithwank810]

Werdum actually landed more clean shots even tho he pulled guard every second

[@brendasantoss2168]

Isso é só um exemplo de várias lutas sem explicação... Lutador sem ter jiu-jitsu entrando igual maluco na guarda... Inexplicável

[@bubbaakatommyoso4119]

_this dude was like 0 for 20 on shooting for take downs lol whos back here in 2024_

[@JesusAntonioPerezSilva]

Overin se salvó que tiene más fuerza fabricio lo superó en todo 👍

[@lusitano77]

O verdum parece um farrapo nas mãos do Alistair !kkkk😀

[@clarasoares1476]

Verdade. Só sabe falar mal do Vitor Belfort. E não luta nada ..muito fraco

[@clediomaroliveira8032]

4 minutos d luta , me deu at calo nos olhos ,thau

[@rocha9158]

Fabrício nao tinha chances em pé por isso viveu deitado , overeem só marretada

[@TheKickboxingCommunity]

Classic BJJ nerd move to keep pulling guard like that. I know Werdum is a very good fighter, but a point deduction wouldn't have hurt here for stalling

[@hms9891]

BJJ is mostly for nerds, us greco wrestlers are the most badass or any wrestler for that matter

[@tclyde865]

True. It started out funny the first few minutes then it got annoying. The crowd wasn't happy

[@TheKickboxingCommunity]

@@hms9891 Yeah man. I'd choose wrestling above BJJ any day. Though, of course, BJJ is nice in its own way. But guard pulling.... I hate that shit lol, you can't do that crap in a street fight

[@hms9891]

@@TheKickboxingCommunity I train BJJ only to scramble and avoid submissions for my fights but lately I’ve steered away from it completely it’s all about the mma wrestling and Greco against the cage

[@TheKickboxingCommunity]

​@@hms9891 ahhh. BJJ defense. Nice. Mark Hunt also did this. I read it in his book. "The 5 most important escapes in BJJ" He practised it countless times and succesfully transitioned into a real MMA fighter

[@rcbfitetalk1019]

This Was Great! -- Any body that doesn't understand what Fabricio is doing, doesn't quite understand the Fight game, and doesn't understand what a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is all about 🏆

[@ohtebowah]

Is it just me or did Werdum actually do loads of great stuff on the feet and land a ton? lol.

[@jungb6661]

The way verdum was like idc if you a steroid freak eat this headkick boi to start it off

[@BR-ip5pz]

Werdum looked great on the feet

[@nativeatheist6422]

Is it just me or does Antonio Silva look like one of those Easter Island statues?🤷🏽

[@combatenteurbano4466]

Alex Poatan also looks like those statues😂

[@kevinalbert190]

This very different match in UFC 😁👍

[@ivomota3335]

Werdum sempre foi rapido igual uma tartaruga, o home parece que ta lutando é em camera lenta

[@thedukeofconway4209]

Anyone who says Fabricio is their favorite fighter is just tryna be different,his grappling was master class but that was about it , very dull everywhere else

[@christosdemitrious449]

I graduated high school this same day I remember this fight being a major letdown at my graduation party lol rewatching it I almost think werdum might have won ya it was sloppy but overeem was so tired and got hit a lot even in stand up which surprised me he basically won on slams and position and some hard shots but werdum even though it wasn’t pretty was relentless and even had that submission at the very end until bell rang. Close fight.

[@johntutoriais2212]

Esse Werdum luta é com medo

[@clarasoares1476]

Werdum só da pra fazer podcast e mau. Cara luta igual viado meu

[@gilbertorodrigues5061]

Pezão e Shogun mostrou como se faz .

[@luizfelipe6591]

Pô, com medo a onde? qual motivo por falar isso? O único espaço que cabe aí é a inveja, certo? O cara se garantiu em pé, foi pra cima, e o adversário com medo de não ir pro chão

[@EltonDiogo-dl1rf]

​@@luizfelipe6591luta feia se deitando parecendo posição de coito, pq ele não o derrubou na moral já que ele quis usar o jiu-jitsu... Esse seu argumento não justifica essa performance patética contra o Overeem.

[@RealFapMaster]

@@luizfelipe6591 O Werdum brinca, faz piada demais e por isso tem muito haterzinho, brasileiro gosta de gente igual ao Cigano q é tipo um teletubbie sem personalidade. "ai, como ele é humilde!!"

[@JesusAntonioPerezSilva]

Una máquina de guerra fabricio

[@andrep.terceiro6426]

Respeito muito estes caras. Intermináveis

[@emissary_kyle]

The commentary was trashing Ubereems gas tank. As someone who grapples over 250lbs I'm impressed that he could stuff that many takedowns. Werdum looked washed after the 2nd.

[@pedrinho31]

Lute como homem, sujeito

[@taeldias3255]

ESSE WERDUM É A VERGONHA EM PESSOA.

[@sensory_deprivation4126]

Totally forgot about this fight

This Alistair would have beaten Stipe

[@chonqmonk]

No, but if this Alistair were to somehow find a way to move his arms and legs in a violent fashion he might.

[@TypicalIndian1981]

Easily

[@TypicalIndian1981]

@@chonqmonkbro alistair overeem was k1 Grand Prix champion which is a world class kickboxing organisation and also alistair overeem when he was old and weak almost defeated stipe this overeem was stronger and had decent grappling and was a world class kickboxer those knees and elbows and the punches would’ve finished stipe

С Вердумом он уже разок подрался. Результат известен. После этого Вердум перешёл в UFC и в 2015 году стал чемпионом, Федот перешёл в М-1, а в том же 2015 победил легендарного Митхуна Чакраборти.
