Former WWE champion Dave Batista made his MMA debut tonight at CES MMA, against veteran mixed martial artist Vince Lucero in the night’s main event.
Razor Ramon to make his mma “debut” any day now,hold tight to your pants,it should be very exciting!!! ;D
Lol easy fight funny at the end the wrestling crap.
Little old fat guy was taking the fight to Bautista until the take down, then he acted like a whale on land… just like Butterbean…
LOL BATISTA IS GARBAGE ..haha
What was Batista yelling with Mirgliotta about at the end there?
Well, good for him. He’s not ever going to be a contender, but winning a fight’s no small accomplishment.
@Biggle, He was probably yelling to him on why he took him off. He had a flashback from when he was in WWE. “Let Me At Em’!”
Talk about garbage ass stand up. He was stiff as steel beam!
this was a televised amateur fight,
LOOOOOOONG way to go yet for Batista. No punching power at all. For an easy fight he did not bring much to the fight. I hope he is able to get up to the UFC level but that will not happen any time soon if this is all he has.
lolol. I guess too much WWE makes you soft. Even though he won eventually, I thoroughly enjoyed watching Batista get worked over by the pillsbury dough boy the first several minutes.
That was cool he used his nickname “Brass Body” from his upcoming movie and i’m glad he won his debut however not impressively; his stand up defense is sorely lacking. It is his 1st fight however.
Two Douche bags!!!!!!
Hey good on him for the win. The fat guy was feeding it too him. Should have stopped waving to the crowed and concintrated on batista.
Well…what can you say? Batista needs A LOT of work on his standup. Any legitimate fighter would’ve knocked him out in the first 30 seconds there. But, I wish the guy the best of luck.
bautista would straight get @ss r**** in a legit promotion
krispy kreme vs. anabolic steroids.
i like how they introduced batista as a “six-time wwe champion” as if that means anything
Poor Batista…doesn’t know how to punch or kick… he actually doesn’t know how to fight…this is first time I see such a big WWE who is really almost zero in actual fight…joke WWE…
Mirgliotta garbage ref as usual. Boring fight
LOL Batista is crap, almost lost this fight with tiny fat man with 0 ground skills. Batista stand up was terrible, he panicked when he got caught a little bit. If he started in UFC against someone like Nelson, the fight would have lasted 30 seconds or less and Batista would have been unconcious.
batista will get his ass handed to himself if he decides to go any further than fat boy…who by the was kicking his ass till the take down!!! Batista= Garbage
batista will get killed in the ufc
it makes me sick that I want to watch this.
No wonder Booker T was able to beat the s*** out of him ( might have something to do with Booker T’s black belt in Kyokushin, but still )
I was told that Bautista was pissed that lucero kicked him in the balks while on the ground. I hot this from luceros Facebook page.
he is crap
which makes me happy
when i saw them come out at first and saw his opponent i said man this is a gimme fight lol but man batista kinda is to green right now … he needs to go to a good camp asap
the fat guy should be in the ufc, he has some pretty sweet striking
no wonder Stephan Bonnar knocked him out in practice, he has no head movement…good for him on getting the win
Yet another wrestler trying to pull WWE s*** in MMA, he could at least show some class after winning like almost every other mma fighter.
yes, the standup was garbage. but the cesar training shows, for sure. good for him.
Watching Batista’s weak performance, one has to acknowledge that Lesnar was no joke at all.
hmm kind of like Brock no stand up.
Yeah, I wish people would leave the fighting to the real warriors. No doubt a tough dude, but any real striker would have had him knocked out in the first 30 seconds. Don’t ruin the sport with these celebrity fights.
dude will get knock out by ny heavyweight he suck no boxing skills at all
no stand up at all from WWE peeps
Jeez give him a break, its his first match. Even Jon jones didn’t look terribly impressive his first match out.
nice takedown and finish!
David Loiseau or John Howard should of been themain event but none the less Bautista is 43yrs old, never has competed before, never trained much (the skills he got from Cesar Gracie were alrigt tho. good awarness of ground position), extremly muscle bound and tense. that said he did alright I woulda thought he would of had more punching power than that and the adrenilen/ nerves looked like the got to him he clearly wont make it to the big promotions due to age and lack of skills but I would like to see him go one more time before writing him off. it was an alright debut everyones first time competing lacks thats why u have to always train
Dont quite your day job yet buddy..
thaifighter, I agree Idk why people are hating on him. Sure he made alot of money fake wrestling but he obviously really interested in mma and decided to train in it. And the amount he got paid for the fight was far less than he has made in wwe. It kills me how people complain when A fake wrestler gets a high caliber opponent on his second fight (brock vs mir) but when another fake wrestler makes his debut against a guy who is not well known people complain. It was his first fight of course he is not gonna fight some well known super awesome fighter. I think it is dumb they announced he was a wwe champion, it is completely irrelavent to mma. I am fairly certian batista will never be in the ufc or any other big promotion but hope he has fun with his new hobby.
Batista didnt look that bad. Takedown and groundwork was pretty good. He won last long if he doesnt improve his stand up. He kept his hands down most of the fight.
That was shamefull even for a WWE guy.I thought he was clowning the guy in the beginning but no he really just has no reaction when he gets punched in the face.Eat the punches,plant your feet,keep your hands at your waist,and don’t move your head…Nice strategy.I’ll try that next time I spar.I have to admit his grappling wasn’t that bad.he should stick to BJJ competitions.At 43 and with all the money he has,i don’t thnik getting brain damage is a good idea.You saw what that jellyfish did to him,imagine what a good heavyweaight kickboxer would do to him.
The funny thing was batista bragging about how he fought in the streets when he was young.HAHA he probably fought 150 pounds teen cubans because anybody who got hit with real punches would have better stand up.He would probably get knocked out by random bums fighting on youtube videos.
Well, we all clicked on it!
Who was the black guy who Mitrione Koed from TUF finale? That’s who he fought like, very stiff.
If sucking was good Blowtista would be the best…
there is allot of keyboard warrior in the house,i mean go in the f****** cage and see what it look like,instead of bitching
He should get some more fights under his belt so he can be ready for the next TUF Heavyweight season!
Good debut. Batista felt the pressure. But he did good. respect to Batista for fighting for real.
That fat guy ate 2 large turkeys and drunk a barrel of beer 5 min before the fight and still won the stand up with this robot. Someone needs to tell him you get hit for real in mma before he gets permanent brain damage.
Of course he can’t move his head, his shoulder implants get in the way
He has no technique I wanted to see him choke slam some maybe drop kick him a few times, if he could of suplexed him off the cage he could of got a legit 3 count, fat boy won by dec.
Its his first fight!!! He is still an amateur who decided to go pro out the get go. You guys expect him to just come out and murder someone. I bet many of the ones who are whining have never steped in a cage let alone won a fight. If he starts right away with his takedown and bjj, he will start winning faster. And by the way, he will be in the UFC with a couple more wins because he will bring WWE fans with him since he is a star unlike lashley. Dont forget that UFC is more about money fights.
2 things everyone who saw the fight live cause a friend paid for it knows he didnt look hurt at all and secondly why is it acceptable for a guy to lay on his stomach and not get hit in the back of the head? In all mmma fights theres stupid rules like if on the ground cant knee a guys head or no hitting the back of the head when he covers up and lays on his stomach. I thought he did alright, its not like he was worried about losing at any point.
