Cung Le Interview - Strikeforce Champion - Video Archive

[vothanhminh1971]

Being humble is a virtue of most Asians. Keep it up Cung!

[JESUSWARRIOR11]

cung le is awsome i think he is underrated bcuz he is just AWSOME!

[fuckingkimura]

Holyshit I never knew Cung Le can speak perfect English like that, I thought he lived in Vietnam or China for most of his life?

[CherryYen2810]

@fuckingkimura He's an immigrant after the Vietnam War. He moved to America since he was very young.

[GabrielDhalaman]

After Belfort,if Anderson survives to Belfort,his category at ufc will become a little empty for real challengers...So sorry Dana is such a bitch and wont accept Cung Le there for just one fight

[RebornGuitarLearner]

Fuck your movie career Mr.Lee! Fight full time, fight Anderson Silva and GSP, retire, THEN go for your damn movies!

[jeff007irish]

I love this dude, he's a stand up guy. Cung Le it would be an honor to stand beside you to give you the support that you so much deserve. I wish you all the best in your movie carer. I would love to see you battle in the cage against Silva. It would be a great fight. I have learned never to underestimate anybody. I love to watch Cung Le's kicks. Devastating blows and techniques....

[atulatua]

Vietnamese love you!!!

[happyboyy8k]

Strong and humble.

[thorsutton]

I like cung le.. think he can only do good things for sport..

[jopat1926]

Nothing against cung le personally, but i think he was of the most untested overrated mma superstars out there..i want to see him in a real test..i think that the anderson silva comparison is outrageous, anderson silva has faced the best in the world..he would dismantle cung le..btw frank shamrock does not count as a win..lol

[BioBoosterSoldier]

untest? how? cuz he went into strikeforce instead of ufc? heres the fact, hes a multi kick boxing champ defeating many would be champs, and a mma champ. people can say all they want this guy have proven too many people wrong.

[j0HnMitcheLLe]

cung le is one humble dude..

[Deej1188]

yeesh...If only he knew what would happen to Forrest Griffin when he went in and "engaged" with Silva.

Yeah, I agree with Cung Le vs. GSP. I don't want to see Anderson Silva fight Le. It'd be a massacre and Cung Le fans would be pissed.

[dcvien]

I really like this guy, he always polite and humble, a true gentlemen. Makes me proud to be Vietnamese.

He reminds me of Manny Pacquiao, both are Christian.

[cbassdafirst]

silva vs. le is interesting match. cung le would be hard to get to ground but anderson silve is all around fighter plus he is long. however, cung le's kicks are extraordinary. look what they did to shamrock. gsp vs. cung le perks my interest a lot, love to see that.

[rockinrondogg]

I met this guy and he's an awesome person. I just wish he would defend his title more often or strikeforce needs to start an interim championship

[overthehill91]

cung le would break his foot off in anderson silva's ass

[mickytids111]

i like fighters that are humble he always said i just did my best. Even though hes maybe pound for pound one of best fighters in the world well not on the ground but he whoops asse

[futureseven]

Cung Le vs St Pierre.

[Shroommate]

I'd love to see Cung Le and Anderson Silva fight. It would be a GREAT fight.

[chrl007]

A true Warrior doesn't hit a man when he is down a ground. That's Cung Le.

[laxislife1265]

Cung Vs Silva. My two favorite fighters, although i think Silva would kill Cung on the ground :(

[namanh]

why? really , cung isnt bad.. would be a fair game

[minhduy322]

@laxislife1265 true I love Cung Le but Silva is just too versatile?

[laxislife1265]

Exactly. But at the same time it seems to me that Cung has a little more power than Silva.

[tonyhiv]

cung le vs anderson silva

[saibhlob]

Great guy! I like you.

[strikeoutace66]

he is a great guy all the fame and he still is sad to leave his family

[oyu8]

Well Done Cung Le, a very positive,brilliant and humble athlete.

[FateFeezy]

hes the best

[limahl123123]

Well cant understand why so many says Anderson silva would beat Cung Le.. Cung Le beated Frank Shamrock and he's the champion. He got really good chanse i think:)

[21redskins21]

are you fucking retarded? fucking forest gump

[GitanoRenegado]

Frank shamrock now thats a douche bag

[BlackWhiteDarkLight]

Cung Le's a nice guy! I thought he was a douchebag. I guess I was the douchebag..

[onixz100]

Yeah, Cung Le is known for his humility. On top of that, Vietnamese culture (and Asian culture in general) is based on being humble and always putting yourself on a lower level than another to remain respectful and courteous.

[BeeBee408]

Cung Le is such a nice guy and so humble. We are very proud of you Cung!! YOU GO!!

[Pussyenforcer]

Even though Dana is cool with Scott Coker I don't think Dana is willing to do a co promo because he is too hard headed and not open minded enough to do so. I hope Dana would open up and see the potential to see that if you do the co promos then MMA will get more noticed and bigger.

[Pussyenforcer]

I hope Dana and Cung le can meet in the middle somewhere and agree to a contract that both are happy with. I Dana wants at least a 5 to 6 fight contract deal but Cung I heard wants at the most a 3 to 4 fight deal which I think is reasonable but who knows. well see.

[ylatupa]

cung le would have to keep the fight standng. silva is a very well rounded fighter. cung le isnt getting any younger doing movies. cung le just wants a big pay day like fedor. dana doesnt want to spend that kind of money.

[DeWoWW]

Its very possible Cung can beat Anderson Silva. someone like bj penn would probably give cung more trouble. Even though anderson is better than bj penn and everyone else. cung's style would put silva in touble.

[Azn69Knight]

i think you got it the other way around, in the ufc, people are more ruthless, and anderson silva's style aint gonna be like shamrocks, he'll put le to the ground and deal HEAVY damage, cung le has never taken good damage before so we dont know

[heartlessvietboy]

Cung Le versus a Brazilian in Anderson Silva: I am not talking about race, but about the history of many fierce fighters coming from Brazil. If Anderson Silva is not the build at middleweight, then his title is well. Also fighting at light heavyweight, Anderson Silva seems to be a confident fighter. Let I mention he defeated Dan Henderson and Rich Franklin. And he also trains with Big Brother Nog. Cung Le sounds excited and ready for the challenge, let the fight begin then. We shall see.

[thegodrevolution]

damn this cung lee seems like one hell of a nice guy. he is a bad ass fighter

[spicy69838]

Cung has already been in conversation with Dana for a while. Dana wanted a 5 fight contract, but Cung only really wanted 1 or 2 max. But they are still in talks to see what can be done.

[sbtn776]

I am search for a chinese fighter but I can not find any. next mach, I would like to see Cong Le fight with any chinese fighter. chinese are really look good in the movie but I like to see them fight in the real life. common chinese people, there are two billion chinese in the world. give me just one real fighter.

[micrasys]

China hold their own domestic tournaments and some of their fighters are very good for sure. UFC is more American based although they sign some fighters from countries like Brazil and Japan. It's more political and business issues than anything. But yeah most open-minded people know that there are always a small percentage of very good and talented fighters in every country of the world and it's not in the race, but in the individual.

[MysticNinjaJay]

Look up Jason Yee vs. Cung Le. Yee was a prominent San Shou fighter back in the day as well as an up and coming action movie star. Cung won the fight. There is a segment of the fight on Youtube. I can't find the full thing.

[hoboguru]

the reason china doesn't have many huge fighters in the west is probably due to their rather tattered history under communism and with the chinese revolution and their globalization you will probably see alot of good chinese fighters in the future,also you may want to check out some sanda fighters and the chinese mma championship called ''art of war'' :)

(p.s this is a reply i know cung le isn't chinese )

[martchart]

GSP vs Cung Lee would be great

[Snoochy2006]

Yes sir.

[verycoldice2]

when's Cung Le's next match?

[YuLiang07]

If Frank Shamrock fight Silva Anderson, he would beat the shit out of Anderson. Unfortunately, this match will never happen.

[jaywill009]

yo let me get some of that shit your smokin........nick diaz wouldnt even smoke that shit your on..lol

[TheBarb2007]

cung le is to strikeforce what anderson silva is to the ufc, total anilation of all compatition

[jsg103]

It's all nice in theory but I don't think the ufc is going to co promote with the competition so that anderson can fight an unranked middleweight who has never beat or fought a ranked opponent, he'd be a good addition to the ufc but by no means is he ready to come in and fight the champ when he probably couldn't beat the contenders otherwise.

[MysticNinjaJay]

Maybe if Cung beats Lawler which would get him a rank as high as #5 on Sherdog he could be considered a legit contender by the MMA community then Dana and Coker could make this happen.

[jsg103]

I doubt Dana would ever co promote, it'd be completely nonsensicle on their part, they have everything to lose and nothing to gain from it. I think the only way he'll be in the ufc is if he signs a ufc contract.
