Marines and UFC Fighters: The Warrior Path - Part 1

[comquatable]

Marine corp semper fi do our die

[xzxCHIPxzx]

Marines are more badass

Putting your life on the life is different than putting your face on the line

[daonepl]

You can't compare army and UFC, by the way, put any marine in the octagon(UFC), he won't last a round, i'll bet on that, no offense, just saying you can't compare them, they both have skills which are good for what they do. Enough said.

[Ihateopp]

@daonepl You obviously know nothing of the MCMAP program. Which all Marines are trained in.

[Winnetka4]

Marines are so jingoistic it's ridiculous

[asianwannabeamerican]

@Winnetka4 Jingoistic? What do you expect from Marines? There's a reason Richard Simmons isn't in the Corps.

[DebzzyWebzzy]

OK. you guys are tough, I respect you for doing what you do, but sorry, the British Royal Marines are the best in the world

[Echo058]

@DebzzyWebzzy Im a marine and I agree with that. But still feel like we're badass

[DebzzyWebzzy]

@Echo058

You are still badass, be proud....to serve your country

[jmf1902]

@DebzzyWebzzy Our army, navy and marine corps beat you Brits twice in the revoltution and the War of 1812. Then we saved y'all twice in WWI and WWII. Haha! But we've warmed up to y'all from across the pond (as you call it), and y'all are a great ally. So, cheers...

[shikantaza1000]

pulse quickened, ambitions for being badass stoked, thinking about joining the marines.....QUALITY propaganda video!

[triplex62]

seals rangers green berets air force pararescue marines regular army GIs are tru badasses

[soldierboytorres]

@eetanderndyn if you are going straight into the Army with Ranger in your contract you will do 9 weeks basic training, then AIT (I was commo so it was 16 weeks for me) then head to RIP where youre ranger training will start for another 11 weeks

[eetanderndyn]

@klevifusha boot camp in the army, is boot camp. They're all infantry trained in boot camp. Drill sergeants tell them over and over again they're infantry. The only harder camp is when going Rangers or Special forces. Rangers boot camp and AIT are intertwined to a whole like 16 weeks. I know, because I am going for rangers.

[USAleX]

proud to be a marine....but still propaganda.

[BmwM3E46Power]

Holy shit talk about some motivation, makes me want to go run some miles

[pelletgun12]

Hmm I wonder why women dont train with men?? (Sarcasm)

[Davemercd]

Take a Marine who is trained in advanced levels of MCMAP and you're fucked.

[11roosterben]

@TehPenar I have never heard of a bouncer getting killed while working. not saying it hasnt happened but i know a lot more Marines have died and been injured while working than bouncers.

[TehPenar]

@11roosterben

that's legit

im saying that most marines outside the infantry will probably never even be placed in harms way during their entire career

bouncers at least run the risk of getting knifed of having their ass kicked.

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar since i would much rather be kicked in the nuts by a soldier than prime Cro Cop, which makes sence! BUT you still haven't won, because to them there still might be 'secret' ways to hit the groin, maybe even a pressure point in a certain section of the testicle, which MIGHT kill the fighter in one swift strike, just maybe. Aslong as there is the MAYBE you cannot win my friend, you are debating against delusional people who are probably well on their way to the nut house later in life.

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar You'll also find that in a debate they will always fall back on the 'secret' moves, which makes it abit like arguing against religion, they will always fall back on God and events that supposedly took place so long ago that they cannot be proven to be false. Hence the 'circle' effect you get in the debate. At which point you can say something like "well if groin strikes were the most effective way to win(and theyre not) then i would STILL bet on the mma fighter..............

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar you'll find that all the ignorance comes from people whom don't train in neither combat sports nor the army. People who don't know anything about the military and the fact that they DONT focus %100 of their time and attention on unarmed combat. I doubt we will ever witness a full blown war with guys in Gi's and mouthguards! If it ever happens, only then can you compare fighters and soldiers. Right now, fighters vs bodybuilders is more of a comparison, a bad one nonetheless.

[November10th1775USMC]

Semper Fidelis.

[oOIZodiacIOo]

Why bring in UFC fighters? What are they trying to prove, compare? They are both tough but two completely different animals. You don't wanna be in a gunfight/war against marines and you sure as heck don't wanna be in a fist fight with Fedor, rules or no rules! "We require to be undefeated or we die"? I can understand that buddy but saying that infront of UFC fighters is being cocky, put your gun down and get in a fist fight with a UFC fighter and we will see how long you remain undefeated for.

[yandykun]

@oOIZodiacIOo i completely agree with you. 

[TehPenar]

@oOIZodiacIOo

former marine here who trains high level bjj and a little striking (but more than enough to tool someone untrained):

a lot of marines are completely delusional about their abilities as "warriors," and most of their fanboys outside the service are even more insane. ive literally met marines who thought they could beat various mma champions (most common one i hear is randy couture - no idea why he's been selected as the military mma benchmark) "in a real fight."

[TehPenar]

@oOIZodiacIOo

i should also mention that ive rolled a TON of these guys, and not a single one was even at the level of a legitimately decent whitebelt with 6 months of solid training.

none of them are actually ballsy enough to put on gloves and spar after grappling though

[akaboy4life]

A ufc knows the places to hit to get alot of points, A marine knows the places to to get you killed.

[ttherexx]

@akaboy4life

yeah because 90% of all ufc fights are won buy points and only 10% by t.k.o and k.o... oh wait, i might have mixed something up ;)

[TehPenar]

@akaboy4life

this is the type of movie-delusion shit i can't believe people still buy into

THERE ARE NO SECRET "DEATH PRESSURE POINTS," and a clumsy, uncoordinated marine is never going to pull off a secret eyegouge of firey death against someone 10000 times better at fighting than they are

any sort of "dirty fighting" a marine could potentially use to get an edge on an mma fighter is accessible to the mma fighter too -- you think you need "special training' to target someone's eyes/nuts?

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar LOL @ 'secret' death pressure points. Good luck landing those(which don't exist by the way) when Randy C double-legs your ass to the mat and takes your arm/leg home with him. Or after Cro Cop kicks you in the liver so fucking hard it pops out your ass. What i usually say to geeks that say stuff like that.. WTH do they think changes in a 'REAL FIGHT' lol?? No referee to stop the mma fighter taking your head off with a neck crank? My God, how this even came to a comparison is beyond me.

[TehPenar]

@oOIZodiacIOo

you know, im kind of embarrassed to say this, but in the marines, they taught us a strike where we basically throw a punch with our fingers dispersed and poking out in various directions. it's supposed to be an "eye gouge," but realistically, im pretty sure someone would just hyperextend their fingers on someone's face if they actually threw one of these with any power behind it

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar I've come to the conclusion that these people auto-assume that there has to be some secret single-strike death moves that these marines/navy seals know, that no one else in the world is aware of. They cling on to that assumption like flies to shit. Well guess what, your hollywood influenced assumptions are false. A Marine would get murdered by even an ameteur mma fighter , let alone a champion. End of argument kids, now turn off your xboxes/computers, go outside and get some exercise.

[TehPenar]

@oOIZodiacIOo

yeah, i have no idea how people are so retarded, especially since there are a dozens and dozens of videos showcasing how bad marines are at sparring/rolling readily available on youtube.

i looked up "marine boxing" once and got a video of these two chumps being chumps, and the comments literally said shit like, "they're just playing around. if they wanted to kill each other, it'd be totally different."

it's unbelievable how stupid people are

[Hitlerwearsasnuggie]

@oOIZodiacIOo It depends on the rules. Marines are trained to dispatch weapons, use weapons, take advantage of weakspots... and basiclly just kill. UFC fighters are suposed to "kill" within the rules.

[MrUpi89]

why comparing marines and ufc fighter. isnt obvious two warrior train for different purpose

[OoRaHDaWg21]

This video is now my motivation for being a Marine everyday and I am proud of it! Thank you for the vid, I needed that push for my tour coming up

[rayzer117]

"we're required to be undefeated or we die" - Super Badass

[Greenmarine6]

I fight for Life Liberty and the pursuit of happiness...end of story, it's not entertainment

[manz92]

i still think in a one on one fist fight, ufc fighters are gonna win, however, war doesnt take place in a octagon!

[Colombiano603]

@manz92 lol what a joke one on one with any weapon Marines win

[paladindarknite]

ha, this is a sad joke, i already ownd both...when it comes from a marine!

[jonty811]

UFC fighters train to win a title... Marine's train to kill the enemy, to save themselves and their commrades, to protect their country.

I wouldn't like to meet either a marine or UFC fighter in a dark alley... but UFC fighters are girls compared to marines!!

[ATFvetteman21]

"They're training for a five round fight. I'm trying to end you in five seconds." Badass.

[ThleTruth]

@ATFvetteman21 any fight lasting longer than 5 seconds is sex.

[stealth10001]

this is the coolest thing evaaa..

[aow4321]

@JoeMomma2002 good troll is good. Now return to your basement for hibernation.

[ModernBbcMoH2]

US Marines the BEST !!!

[themoderator130]

Marines are like a UFC fighter on steriods! But Marines fight wars not 5 rounds.

[AnneMarlene1234]

My husband and his Dad were Marines. Awesome discipline!

[TheHahahaha17]

@AnneMarlene1234 No matter what they will always be Marines. Once a Marine always a Marine OORAH!!!

[paladindarknite]

@AnneMarlene1234 lack of discipline more like it...im gonna teach self-defense to women to beat up their abusive husbands!

[15wildhockey15]

F...YAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[Elandil5]

Can a person who is not a US citizen join the Marines?

[NickVader92]

@Elandil5 I don't think so, here in Canada you've gotta be a citizen to join the army, so I assume it's the same thing in the States.

[Elandil5]

@NickVader92 Thats what i think, but i hope i can get citizenship when i join.

Thx for the answer =)

[MysticRonin101]

@Elandil5 Yes, if you got your green card.

[Elandil5]

@MysticRonin101 thx man hope i get it =)

[MysticRonin101]

@Elandil5 Oh yeah, if you enlist, it will expedite your citizenship process. Word of advice, you gotta make sure this is what you want because whatever branch you contract with, you're locked. Don't make the mistake I did when I signed up for the Army National Guard.....long story. Wish I enlisted in USMC! Oorah!

[Elandil5]

@MysticRonin101 Since i live in Europe i would have to go to Germany to enlist but first i need to finish my school to have a higher rank.

[sonnyboi83]

the US marine guy has cauliflower ears lol

[12jason223]

I personaly see no comparison between the Marine corps and the UFC

[12jason223]

@JoeMomma2002 wow your a idiot, where the hell did you go to your little cult school?

[opiumthoughts]

@JoeMomma2002 No I was in the United States Navy and your arguement is flawed and Im not in the mood writing you a essay on how wrong you are. Like I said your comments are mere speculation and just anger comments no facts.

[JoeMomma2002]

@opiumthoughts

And lets talk a little more about genocide. See Spain's genocided against Latin-America are well documented, studied, and openly discussed here in Spainish schools. We acknowledge our evil and guilt.

Lets look at America. YOU BURY and sugar coat you're tragedies. You justify the atomic bombs, you justify genocide against native americans, you justify labor exploitation, you still praise the confederacy.

At least we have tha audacity to face our crimes, you just lie.

[opiumthoughts]

@JoeMomma2002 I said I was done with you stop replying anything I say to retort your speculating comments will do nothing so just give it a rest you hate Marines great have a nice day.

[JoeMomma2002]

@opiumthoughts

Yes you talk about the past when times and thinking were different. The two don't correlate. You can talk about how we killed Aztecs and this and that.

But at the time Spain was killing people for saying the world was round. Now with the education and knowledge we have now, America still has the same mentality that my country had back then. Establish imperialistic pro-american statelite states at the expense of the people.

So tell me what's worse?

[opiumthoughts]

@JoeMomma2002 If you want to talk about tragedies lets talk about how many countries Spain affected thru its imperalistic mentality in the 1500's affecting how many countries across the world? Lets face your country and all the european contries has cause more wars than North America put together and you have the gaul to judge us. You make me laugh your ancestors probably killed more people on this earth than Vietnam.

[JoeMomma2002]

@opiumthoughts

Need I remind you that the U.S. is the only country to ever use Nuclear bombs on another country.

So lets not get into milestones here, because as of late the U.S. has been doing quite a few of those in the body count deparment.

[AdangerousRETARD]

@JoeMomma2002 idk not much! haha and ya there are idiots in every country(once again only one case)

[SexCyberGuideCom]

good

[and1mixtape101]

5 ppl missed like

[AdangerousRETARD]

@JoeMomma2002 there is collateral damage in any war, you are truly an idiot if you didnt know that...you are from spain so you dont know much about us so you should stop making yourself look like a fool...

[xXCoD4pWn3rXx]

why would the military even make this correlation? are they trying to appeal to the UFC watching demographic or something?

[AdangerousRETARD]

@JoeMomma2002 haha you are one of the dumbest bastards on here that ive ever seen...

[sunRsaturn]

They are fighting to put food on your family, bird hunting with the Cheneys, and the first president to turn our entire coast line black.

[perfectcheeseburger]

UFC is a game. WAR is life or death. Don't make me laugh.... 

[Poopaskull]

@perfectcheeseburger What are prehistoric monsters called when they sleep?

A dinosnore!

[Bigbutterballs]

UFC fighters might be tough, but they cant last in a gunfight, lets see their 6packs withstand about 20 ak-47 bullets.

[lionslady]

Obviously, not many of you know our Marines! My Bro was one and he is still doing school and pullin down a 6 figure income. Can you all say that?

[tapp3r]

If you don't got the brains, this is the path for you. lol

[sunRsaturn]

@tapp3r ....r u saying we're sending them over there to get the stupid out of here.

[sunRsaturn]

So how does this explain why you can't beat the guys with the monkey bars, rifles, and RPG's?

[msalak87]

cute

[lifeson46]

wow smell the testosterone

[WordOfTheDay69]

The hardest part of the military is the mental stress and actually being in combat

[philly1537]

wait til the mohammad trolls see this they are going to spam

[henryalll]

This video was impactant, seems reals warriors, are they marines of United Kingdom??

[flatulentdog]

DIs are required to pass like 75% of every platoon. So, as long as you stay out of that bottom 25%, no matter how stupid or worthless or weak you are, you'll become a Marine.

[TehPenar]

@flatulentdog

i've only saw one person legitimately "fail" bootcamp past receiving (it was a guy who failed the shooting qualification like 3 cycles in a row - and they give you like 5 shots to qualify every time your cycle goes through)

everyone else who "didnt make it" either failed their drug test, decided they didnt want to be a marine and acted out/said they were gay/etc, or couldnt pass the receiving ist (like a mini-pft that you arent supposed to be shipped to bootcamp without passing)

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar People are too gullible, i had a debate a while ago with this guy and it was basically prime Fedor vs prime Navy SEAL in a street fight with no rules but you can't use weapons, just a brawl. The debate just went in circles, he was saying the SEAL would have some secret moves that Fedor has never seen and i was basically saying that Fedor would KTFO the poor dude, if he was even stupid enough to fight Fedor which i doubt. It was too much stupidity for me too handle.

[TehPenar]

@oOIZodiacIOo

there was an incident in california a while ago where a navy seal went over to some loud highschool party and told everyone to shut the fuck up. he ended up getting in a fight with some wrestler, who somehow ended up knocking him out, then came back later with a knife and stabbed the kid

if a navy seal loses to some random highschool wrestler in a "no rules" fight under any circumstance, i think it's pretty safe to say that prime fedor would beat him in death in under 30 seconds

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar That's nuts lol. Well that pretty much 'seals' the deal in the Fedor vs seal debate, unless the seal was 'taking it easy' on the kid or he wasn't using his secret moves to honor his obligation to keep them a secret heheh. Well he did come back and use the 'Secret Falcon Stab of Sterilization' straight to his nuts. lol the wrestler was probably off his face drunk and still won.

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@TehPenar Anyway great chatting to you dude, it's great to have a Marine come on here and comment as opposed to the usual nerds and psychos that tend to rear their ugly heads way too often for their own good. Peace!

[Hitlerwearsasnuggie]

@TehPenar That's so weird, but any armed forces soldier/marine/whatever would usually kick anyone's ass.

[TehPenar]

@Hitlerwearsasnuggie

i think most highschool wrestlers who made it to at least competitive state level are in way more prepared for a fight than 99%+ of the army/marine corps, including special forces guys who dont train outside the military

double leg onto ground and punch in face while dumb military guy doesnt know how to shrimp and doesnt have the core strength to get him off otherwise??

[Hitlerwearsasnuggie]

@TehPenar I would say some college wrestlers have a chance, but I don't know about highschool. And if you're in the army you can avoid a double leg pretty easily.

[TehPenar]

@Hitlerwearsasnuggie

yeah, you have a very unrealistic view on the badassery of soldiers/marines

anyone good enough to wrestle in college (everyone wrestling competitively in college was state level in highschool) is going to be able to plant anyone soldier/marine on his back with next to no effort unless there's a massive, massive size difference

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@Hitlerwearsasnuggie "If you're in the army you are automatically immune to takedowns"?????????????? wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­w, dude you are really busting the stupidity meter right now, no you are blowing it up with your own personal anti-stupidity-meter weapons of mass destruction. I think i may have just had a near death experience whilst reading your post, saying things like that should be illegal, i mean i almost died reading it, YOU should be in jail.

[oOIZodiacIOo]

@Hitlerwearsasnuggie Where i train mma there is a guy, who is now a friend of mine and he is in the army, but also he happens to train mma and STILL can't avoid takedowns, myself and many other guys take him down at will, every round and not just doubles and singles, judo throws/trips and slams too, you are obviously commenting on a subject you know very jackshit about and have obviously never been in the army nor have you ever done an mma class in your life.

[Hitlerwearsasnuggie]

@oOIZodiacIOo I'm not in the Army because i'm a teenager, I plan on enlisting with either the Army or Marines when i'm older. I currently do wrestling. Anyway, you know that in the army they train you in hand-to-hand combat, right? I'm not saying anyone will have an easy time against a ripped fighter who has been wrestling since he was 4, but the same goes for most army soldiers. Also, the soldier your describing sounds like he is giving the army a bad name.

[AtinMandalore]

@Hitlerwearsasnuggie Actually your very wrong. The main difference between the Marines' and the Army's boot camps is that the Marines receive MCMAP, while the Army does not receive a single second of martial arts training.

[Hitlerwearsasnuggie]

@AtinMandalore Actually, your wrong. In the first 9 weeks of basic training, that every soldier takes, you learn hand-to-hand combat.

[kevinmillerstuff]

@KapJlcoH1337

You obviously are not a Marine. Believe me, our training is NOT harder. It is what you make it, you can push yourself or you can half ass everything, it all depends on the individual.

[KapJlcoH1337]

@kevinmillerstuff well on commercials and other shit from tv it looks harder and they say that its uber hard, if its not than tv is shit. I only know Russian army, and if your training isnt harder then Russians train x2 harder than u =))

anyways whats the point of making UFC fighters and Marines? its different things.. UFC just fight and marines risk their lives and kill people, not even close

[MrClarkisgod]

@kevinmillerstuff Marine Corps training is not THAT hard. Is it hard? yes. Is it almost impossible that most people don't make it? no. If you played football or wrestled in high school it is about that hard.

And you work up to it. You get 3 months of boot camp. And 2-3 months of MCT or Infantry school depending on your job. That's a pretty solid 5-6 months of training. Recruit training seems the hardest in the beginning when its actually the easiest. .. then it seems easier later.

[CplSly]

Actually I think it is 3.5 active and 5.5 inactive reserves now. That is what my contract for PLC is at least. Pretty sure when I was talking to the enlisted side recruiter it was the same as well. Close enough to 4 years anyway. Cool video, well put together.
