MMA Legend? I aint heard of him, he didnt even have mma gloves on when he showed the move.

I think ill try the torture rack next time I visit my gym.

Bass!!! I wonder if he’ll ever fight again, his last battle was about two years ago where he made short work of a guy. I’ll like to see the old timers go at it bass vs randy. He has tattoos on both his palms, man that’s something, probably from his glory days in pancrase.

If you haven’t heard of Bas Rutten then you are a fucking disgracae and should quit watching and practicing all forms of MMA.

mindbond Says, in 7-30-2008 at 12:43:31 from 76.17.160.210

Well, it appears that “Black Gerbil” doesn’t know everything worth knowing about MMA. How do you not know who Bas Rutten is? And why the hell would he have to have gloves on when showing a grappling move?? That makes no sense dude.

Mute Says, in 7-30-2008 at 12:46:41 from 74.129.218.126

To the two people who posted before me… WTF???

MMA Legend? Definitely! Learn some history of the sport.

Did he fight Fedor? No. Bas was before Fedor.

Will he fight Anderson? No. Bas for the most part is a commentator and trainer these days.

LOL..dont be baited by Black Gerbil, it only makes him worse.

J Says, in 7-30-2008 at 14:39:24 from 63.207.238.151

very cool crusifix style move..

Red X Says, in 7-30-2008 at 14:57:19 from 86.135.7.75

I’m pretty sure Bas has stated that he will definitely not be fighting again.
He said something along the lines of “I miss the fighting, but I don’t miss the aches pains and injuries that are part of it, especially at my age”

EL GUAPO!! You gotta love him. Interesting kneck crank, i like that

M0rph3v5 Says, in 7-30-2008 at 15:56:46 from 24.21.143.108

I agree with will on this one.

Principal Skinner Says, in 7-30-2008 at 16:28:37 from 76.69.64.147

I’m pretty sure that Black Gerbil only recently got interested in MMA after Spike started showing UFC.

Bas beat some good fighters in his heyday like Frank Shamrock and Kevin Randleman. I think he was a UFC champ at one point too. Like Mute said, he’s better known now as a commentator and a trainer. He trains Kimbo Slice now. Apparently he also trains Kevin James, the actor from King of Queens.

I was playing GTA IV the other day and I heard Bas Rutten talking on the radio IN THE GAME!!
“I don’t believe in eye for an eye…I believe in TWO eyes for an eye..and an ear!…and a nose!!”

x2468 Says, in 7-30-2008 at 17:58:37 from 24.63.14.166

Black Gerbil is just a troll. he’s been playing dumb and trying to piss people off for like a year now.

anyway, does this move just cause pain or can it actually damage your opponent? like if they don’t tap will something brake (like with an arm bar)?

rawr Says, in 7-30-2008 at 18:10:29 from 76.254.112.71

Dude Bas Rutten was a pioneer of this sport and back then was considered one of the top guys. I think he was UFC champ too until an injury happened or something. Nowadays he does commentary for MMA.

bob73 Says, in 7-30-2008 at 18:58:39 from 96.236.225.10

bas was ufc champ winning over kevin randlman, it went to decision and was questionable, randleman took bas down at will but bas was busy from his back but couldent keep it on the feet. this was at heavywieght and he never defended the title and moved to middleweight. but bas is a ledgend, no doubt about it. he is a mma staple in the sport.

bob73 Says, in 7-30-2008 at 19:02:10 from 96.236.225.10

also bas does star in grand theft auto 4. if you go into nino’s apartment and watch the tv you will find a cool tv show there where bas is staring in a funny show(totally bas rutten all the way) i thing he plays him self in it or maybe the world famous el guapo.

Black Gerbil1 Says >> “MMA Legend? I aint heard of him”

(( W.T.F. ))

Maybe it’s because he didn’t have his gloves on — and without these iconic items you just quite simply didn’t recognize him?

: ))

Mefninja Says, in 7-30-2008 at 19:16:44 from 74.13.114.163

bas rutten is the shit..

“kick him in the faace.”

EducatedFool Says, in 7-30-2008 at 20:29:21 from 74.167.237.157

wow, i’m baffled @ the number of people who have no clue who El Guapo is. Any true MMA fan knows who Bas Rutten is, he is one of the greatest fighters of all time, as well as one of the best trainers. Not to mention he’s the coolest and nicest guy in the known universe.

SuN Says, in 7-30-2008 at 21:05:24 from 66.74.143.96

I hope Bas teaching random ESPN viewers how to cripple opponents doesn’t get the wrong reception.

WAR RUTTEN!

lkjkj Says, in 7-30-2008 at 21:56:40 from 68.147.221.8

i want to see the fight he used this in!

smack Says, in 7-31-2008 at 02:46:27 from 58.173.165.76

im gonna try that in open mat tommorrow looks good

dazedandconfused Says, in 7-31-2008 at 04:00:31 from 75.128.146.144

So if Bas was before Fedor how come they both fought Randleman?

digi1210 Says, in 7-31-2008 at 07:57:54 from 212.135.167.18

El Guapo is the man.

“So if Bas was before Fedor how come they both fought Randleman?”

Randleman was Bas’s last fight before he retired and Fedor went pro afterwards.

I haven’t seen the Bas TV show in GTA IV. I’ll have to check it out! Thanks, Bob73.

x2468: “does this move just cause pain or can it actually damage your opponent? like if they don’t tap will something brake (like with an arm bar)?”

im still wondering.

dazedandconfused Says, in 7-31-2008 at 21:02:48 from 75.128.146.144

x2468. I’m not an expert but it looks like you would pass out or possibly get brain damage is bas was the one doing it lol.

dazedandconfused Says, in 7-31-2008 at 21:05:01 from 75.128.146.144

Thanks principal I never knew that. I used to watch cage fighting as a kid back when there was only one round fights. But I didn’t know about pride when bas was there. I found out about him later.

Daniyal Says, in 8-1-2008 at 14:09:39 from 58.181.109.9

I love Bas, I bet he came up with that one during a fight… he’s hilarious.

Xaylin Says, in 8-3-2008 at 00:46:47 from 66.169.114.204

Love Bas. Wish he’d get in the ring again — no one kicks like him these days =(.

Steve Says, in 8-3-2008 at 17:24:04 from 71.104.1.172

Bas is the man. Best commentator in any sport, IMO, and one of the all time greatest fighters.

Did anybody see his fight in 2006? He fought a nobody, but he looked really impressive, actually messing up the guy’s leg with kicks so bad that he couldn’t stand on it anymore. I wish he’d make another comeback.

doscojones Says, in 10-21-2008 at 15:00:34 from 68.193.138.9

john looks like din thomas.
