Houston Alexander Smashes Some Dummy Face For Science

Posted By: Bruno Published in Fighter Talk

Mar

Houston Alexander receives a shot of synthetic adrenaline (Epinephrine) and lays a beatdown on a test dummy for Sport Science. Whats funny is that his trainer gets him so psyched up for an adrenaline rush Houston almost starts to cry.

You’d cry too if your trainer reminded you of how much you suck on national tv.

igibbons should stand in front of one of those 1000lbs of force punches …. id bet my whole purse on u crying pussy

lol Says, in 3-30-2009 at 21:27:13 from 74.220.233.58

in the science of fighting a tiny asian guy punches with 500lbs of force without adrenaline, his form looks real shitty on this.

yoyo Says, in 3-30-2009 at 21:27:25 from 142.161.67.132

houston, i hope u have improved on your guard dude. I like the man and i don’t want to see him get the boot form the ufc

Frank Says, in 3-30-2009 at 21:55:30 from 81.102.38.101

They should test his chin next. ZING!

That dude needs a hug.

OutbreakMonkey Says, in 3-30-2009 at 22:03:19 from 203.38.224.194

The guy obviously fights with a huge amount of rage. Which has shown to be his downfall as well as success. Unfortunately for him, lately more so the former. If they guy got better at wrestling and take down defence he’d be an exciting fighter to watch.

Houston in his normal condition talks a lot like Obama

ryanr5150 Says, in 3-30-2009 at 22:48:12 from 76.236.42.206

those were some ugly ass punches!

igibbons Says, in 3-30-2009 at 22:59:36 from 69.123.127.180

doodee nipple hair. I would definitely not cry from one of Houstons 1000 lbs of force punches. My my friend? Cuz I’d be dead. All jokes aside, I hope Houston finds success in the UFC. Im a big fan.

lol Says, in 3-30-2009 at 23:30:39 from 74.220.233.58

even the Australian taekwondo champion punched with a force of 1000 lbs without psyching himself up

danada Says, in 3-30-2009 at 23:38:30 from 76.71.46.158

Maybe if his trainer spent more time on grappling instructions than pump-up speeches Houston might not have lost his last couple of fights.

M1 Says, in 3-30-2009 at 23:46:57 from 65.189.234.49

Man what a straight up damn flawed ass experiment.

fantana Says, in 3-31-2009 at 01:31:08 from 206.116.71.60

yea you guys should be more like gibbons and quit hating, he is an entertainer inside the octagon and i gotta say his fight with jardine is among my all time favorites, thanks HOUSTON!!!!

FoxyPuncher Says, in 3-31-2009 at 02:37:06 from 84.228.10.62

Houston filld with rage , wich leads to great adventage when comes to knockout power
But! rage tends to blind people in a tactical way
So.. its the main reason for his loses

mymuythai Says, in 3-31-2009 at 02:42:46 from 68.194.97.65

Last time I acted that way was just after my ex-gf dumped me. I went home and watched TV for an hour. I then abruptly stood up, turned to a wall and straight-kicked a hole right through it. Here, I began to scream and chant like a sex-deprived gorilla…Pathetic? Yes. But good for MMA? Only if your proficient in Jiu-Jitsu…

RSparrow506 Says, in 3-31-2009 at 03:19:14 from 70.138.95.38

Look how pathetic his form was!!! Everyone was kissing his ass on these posts back in the day when he won a couple, and I was one of the only people who said he’s gonna get it the moment he fights anyone with a ground game. He sucks, sorry guys. I do enjoy him going out there with all he’s got, but the fact of the matter is, you will never see this guy with a belt. Entertaining, yes… Champion, not even close.

viking Says, in 3-31-2009 at 03:26:47 from 131.251.134.156

UNLEASH THE BEAST!!! lol

This is like the old Nazi super-soldier experiments, but all warm and fuzzy and acceptable.

Oh, and were his gloves not the right size or something? Those punches looked like he was gonna break his wrist!

dingo Says, in 3-31-2009 at 04:07:29 from 99.146.28.238

The man has some serious emotional issues. I mean, I thought I had an unstable emotion. Houston takes it to another level. But his punch is a bodybuilder’s punch. More push than snap. His punch sucks.

unoe c. yetecinko Says, in 3-31-2009 at 04:43:56 from 24.24.243.145

the slow motion grunting had me cracking up.

puto mendoza Says, in 3-31-2009 at 06:36:02 from 209.183.28.52

yo is this shiet legal??? Will he get the boot from the UFC for publically taking DRUG SHOTS in the butt and displaying how mentally faakked up he is in the head on national TV.

brian kenny Says, in 3-31-2009 at 07:22:53 from 76.111.142.181

that guy’s got the heart of a fighter!!!!! hey win or lose he goes out there to fight… to all you shittalkers behind the keyboard i know in my heart what houston alexander would do to you… make you piss your pants

doodee nipple hair Says, in 3-31-2009 at 08:59:22 from 24.57.139.161

igibbons lol hilarious dude … the back of my head would hit my ass after taking a punch like that

420_submity Says, in 3-31-2009 at 09:25:09 from 76.25.101.78

eh wonder how much they paid him for this show the assasin looks skinny, must not be eatin to well from losing his last couple of fights.
Houstin is a bad ass!

agrevaine Says, in 3-31-2009 at 11:35:38 from 64.141.120.10

didn’t John Fitch punch 1450 lbs from his back on Mythbusters?

busyallen Says, in 3-31-2009 at 13:57:37 from 138.27.1.3

Wow, that was AWESOME. Thanks

ccackett Says, in 3-31-2009 at 15:24:17 from 207.34.127.9

Gee that was a cool video, but in the second punch he actually stepped into the punch, while in the third his legs were set in place. A little more power is generated when you use all your core muscles and legs muscles to throw that punch.Iam no boxing expert but that second punch had better form, which probably put it over the top when it comes to power. I would like to it done again where his boxing coach looks at the tape and finds to punches that have the same body movement and compare those punches against each other.But still cool

milojustlaxin Says, in 3-31-2009 at 15:34:03 from 136.183.51.18

haha why was he crying??…this seemed so set up and lame…his punches looked weird too, like no power from rotaion of hips or shoulders….

paddedummy Says, in 3-31-2009 at 16:04:27 from 96.20.145.49

He got more force behing his punch from the natural adrenaline his body produced than he did from the injection. Great, now they can stop testing fighters for drugs and people can stop talking about how some fighters win just because they are on steroids. I’m sure the really hard drugs like aspirin and marijuana will still be illegal because of the huge advantage they give you though,lol

JimmyPoo Says, in 3-31-2009 at 16:22:12 from 99.228.255.149

Rampage threw a punch with 1,800 lbs of force on an earlier episode.

alex sayhi Says, in 3-31-2009 at 17:32:36 from 81.66.204.230

I don’t know if it happens to you guys but there s sometimes one athlete that you like a lot for no specific reasons cuz he s far from being one of the best fighters…but you still absolutely love to see him fight. That s what i feel with houston. This guy touches me everytime i see him. I really hope that he s spent nights and days training on his ground game and that he ll come back stronger !

Penn Legend Says, in 3-31-2009 at 20:39:55 from 68.229.182.44

rampage had a lot better form, and prolly threw a hook. whil Houston threw a straight punch w/ poor form. if he had thrown a hook, the numbers would prolly be higher.

OutbreakMonkey Says, in 3-31-2009 at 20:42:31 from 203.38.224.194

Comparing the ‘pounds of force’ measure to other tests done with completely different measurement devices is redundant. It’s like comparing to different dyno readings for cars, the measurement device can vary incredibly depending on its design and how it’s calibrated.
I don’t doubt that Rampage would punch harder than Houston but to say a Tae Kwon Do guy could punch harder is frankly hilarious. They’re the worst punchers in martial arts.

ness2k Says, in 4-1-2009 at 00:00:32 from 76.208.179.174

I can’t believe the dumb, didn’t KO him out.

smack Says, in 4-1-2009 at 00:29:51 from 211.31.41.187

good show, unles you comin from a rough childhood, that sort emotion would seem strange to you. its about people tryin to kill in your house when your a kid and you have to try and fight em when your 10 years old and there grown men, or geting jumped by 4 guys and tryin to fight em, your body gets better at releasing adenaline if u get in more of those situations but your also sad and freakin out cos its heavy shit to deal with. i know in my heart what hes feeling when hes cryin and stuff after he does those punches. hope hes been workin on his BJJ and gets some more wins in the ufc

Steamer Bean Says, in 4-1-2009 at 03:07:20 from 68.97.154.18

I felt like the previous post on the Fedor experiment was totally bunk. But i gotta say this was amazing. For one it showed how emotion will over ride anything but on top of that he started crying immediately after the juice. I’ve balled like a baby after hurting people on pure adrenaline. I was just blown away by that. But the one bone I have to pick is that they didn’t allow for the adrenaline dump. Any fighter or even drunk bum that has ever been in a street fight can tell you that after you psyche yourself up for the explosion your body goes through a serious break down. You’re simply exhausted. They should have waited til the next day to test the juice if not 2-3 days.

Buckethead Says, in 4-1-2009 at 08:41:52 from 142.176.83.218

Dummy by KO

goofy
looks like a good way to break your hand

Tim Whizzle Says, in 4-1-2009 at 12:15:41 from 76.11.33.74

This show is really bad. This is the second or third “experiment” they’ve done which a) doesn’t prove anything, and b) is greatly flawed.

Thanks for posting it though, at least they’re good for a laugh.
