they make it sound like bas isnt a dutch kickboxer who used his kickboxing 'kicks' in mma and mma is totally different than kickboxing which is a part of mma... :/
I think the US prison system would save a lot of money getting Bas to execute people with that kick. I mean it seems like he could theoretically decapitate someone with it. If I was one death row and had the choice, I would take a Bas kick to enter the afterlife.
I have no idea why they incorrectly called it an "MMA kick". MMA stands for MIXED martial arts. In other words, a combination of several fighting styles. Bas Rutten was a Muay Thai fighter before he got into MMA. So his kick is a Muay Thai kick.
MMA kicks are different in terms of stance and how the delivery of the kick is "tweaked" at the end. You'll notice that 1) Bas didn't execute a mini "hop" before his kick like most MT fighters do (He used his signature "step out" as prep instead) and 2) He didn't "cut" the kick downwards and sideways at the end, unlike "traditional" Muay Thai fighters e.g. Mel Menor. He kept it flat/"level" throughout.
Bas actually has his own fighting system on DVD. You should check it out.
@yuptydoo there is no such thing as a "MMA kick". People in MMA kick differently from person to person. I train in MMA, and i kick differently than my teachers, and other students.
1) taditional muay thai fighters dont hop with kicks, they all use the "step out" prep.
2)"cut" kick, "angle" kick, and "round (flat and level throughout)" kick are ALL muay thai kicks.
And that torso-loading he did at 1:37? Can you show me a single instance in which a Muay Thai fighter has broken stance to gyrate like a whirligig before letting fly like that?
With such a narrow selection of options you have in performing a rotating kick (it is after all, just slapping your leg on something) it takes minute modifications for the type of kick to become altered.
I used "MMA" (meaning "mixed", meaning "altered") for lack of a better adjective. Try "pseudo-Muay Thai" instead.
@yuptydoo well if you are refering to "altered", than yes; i see your point. It isnt a perfect muay thai kick, but niether is it an exclusive MMA (as in UFC/ mixed martial arts style) kick
Who I personally hate are the martial arts "purists" who look down on MMA (not that you're one of them, obviously). I myself am a K-1 enthusiast, but I also acknowledge the fact that without ground game, even the most seasoned strikers become toast in the cage (e.g. Sefo, Saki, etc.)
However, if I ever called something "an exclusively MMA move", I should probably jump off a bridge in shame, because NOTHING in MMA is original: it's a Mecca of kickboxing, BJJ, TKD, Judo, boxing and wrestling.
Actually, what they don't know is that Bas actually developed his own style of power kicking called the step out. Thats why he generated a high powered kick, because it was something he knew was stronger.
That asshole had it coming, getting Bas flagged for no reason.
My personal favorite is the KICK he took some Japanese guy out with: landed square on the right side, and the guy dropped like a marionette. He was wearing green gear, I think.
@turkeyboykillintyme well saying that bas rutten's kick is an MMA kick is ignorant because Bas is a second degree black belt in tae kwon do and has competed in Muay Thai
I cant believe these guys don't consider pound for pound force. Bas weighs at least 50 pounds more than that Muay thai guy. These results are rediculous in that you dont actually see a comparison between fighting styles, which is what they are insinuating
I personally think Mirko CroCop's kick is probably DOUBLE Bas in power. I just don't get why Mirko was not selected for this test. CroCop needs to brag more. He has Brag rights in the Kick department. He's knocked out guys without even trying. Bas tries hard.
Cro Cop's kicks are weaker. He couldn't do BODY kicks for shit, all his knockouts were to the HEAD. BAS has actually knocked out opponents by puncturing their livers/spleens. And he never started losing as randomly as Cro Cop did. He retired on an 8-win streak.
Trust me, Cro Cop should thank whatever Gods are out there that he never faced Bas (who reitred in '99). His career would have been over prematurely.
@yuptydoo Cro Cop was definitely famed for his kicks, head and body. He's had wins by body kicks so idk what you're referring to when you say his body kicks are shit.
@qualy55 UFC is a MMA company therefor all UFC fighters are MMA fighters. know what you are talking about before you make yourself sound like an idiot

go look up ufc, go look up mma. Dana White says its mma, if its not mma then tell me whats the difference. ufc follows the U.S. mma rules. all i am trying to do is inform you so you dont make yourself sound anymore stupid.
This test was purely arbitrary, a muay thai kick is a mma kick, the power of the kick is determine by the individuals, so bas is obviously a bigger guy which makes his kick deliver higher numbers.
One of the biggest reason Bas kicks harder than the Muay Thai fighter is because he's much larger. Bigger people are naturally going to hit harder because they have more momentum.
@Floogy88 bingo.....also seems like the muay thai guy focuses more on digging in with several kicks and knees ...rather than loading up on one big kick
bas is throwing a muay kick. plain and simple. every1 kicks differently though. a jab is a jab but people can still throw it different, thats like saying if i throw a right hook a weird way, sum1 says well thats not a right hook, how would it not be, a hook is a hook. every1 throws punches and kicks differently but its still the type of kick that they learned from the art.

well how F#$@in scientific... Lets give the MMA fighter a full wind up kick with a dummy thats pressed up against a immovable object. Then we can compare that data to a muay thai up-knee with no support holding the dummy in place. Then we show that data on some bullsh!t show and make bullsh!t people fell like they have just found an amazing discovery. gfys's.
@ProcrastiBrowser stfu. your simply pissed that bas got better numbers than the muay thai champion. they jus fucking proved it. and ur so ignorant your still refusing too accept the facts. u cant argue against proven facts. u sound like a complete dumbass. ur prob a muay thai fan n dont like mma. well give it up whiny ass bitch
@ProcrastiBrowser Umm when you watch the whole show, not just the clip on youtube, it was the muay thai champs CHOICE to use his knees, also up until bas the muay thai champ had put up the highest numbers of all the fighters there.
I never said I couldn't do them. I said it was hard at the beggining. It's not like doing 10 to 100 jumping jacks which I've done before. It's pretty much differnt. If you don't show a video of you doing them then.
In MMA we do alter our body. I had to do jumping jacks for 2 minutes straight without stopping,sounds easy until you do it. Jumprope 1 minute straight without stopping. The reason why randy catoure was able to punch harder on the ground then standing up is because we're told to put our weight in our punches plus in the full guard it's harder to get out of then it is as if you were getting conererd. Trust me I know.
Remember as I said before I take both MMA & Muay Thai. It all depends on how you train your. In Muay we're told kicl heavy bags at full force plus a light contact knee feels more cut like a kitchen knife plus we're told to breath everytime we punch or breath in & out because it slows down our heart rate meaning we can go at it longer.
This is surprisingly lenient on critical review compared to the more skeptical stance in other NatGeo shows like Is It Real?, which I enjoy......this show is a joke.
They sould let all the fighters throw the same kick. It has to depend on the person. Not just mma style. Those fuckers just want to say mma has the hardest kick, but trust me it depends on the fighter.
I enjoy Fight Science, and think it's a fantastically entertaining show.....if you can turn off your higher thinking functions while watching. The moment you give the show the slightest critical thought, it falls apart. Especially if you're an avid combat sport enthusiast.
@lilsm555 I'm not saying that Cro Cop kicks harder than Bas but Cro Cop definitely has more kick KO's than Rutten and that's an inarguable fact. You seriously have no idea what you're talking about.
@greatestxgift hm im not sure of that 90% of bas ruttens fights have ended in KO he had like 15 or 16 kick boxing bouts thats not even counting mma or pancreas.
@lilsm555 Cro Cop has had a lot more kick boxing bouts than Bas has. Also, in MMA, Bas didn't have anywhere near a 90 percent KO rate (not even half that rate) and didn't have as many kick KO's as Cro Cop so what exactly are you talking about?
@greatestxgift Yeah, except for when you were.. you know, comparing them. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you're not the sharpest tool in the shed.
@Ligierthegreensun I stated, very clearly, that I not making any comparisons about who kicks harder or who is the better striker/fighter. I simply replied to someone else making the comment about Cro Cop having more kick KO's than Bas Rutten. What I stated was simply a fact not opinion. Are you seriously not bright enough to comprehend that?
@greatestxgift So wait, you're not comparing them, you're just espousing that Bas had less KO's than cro cop, and less by knockout, but you're not comparing. Are you an idiot or ... what?
@Ligierthegreensun Wow, are you seriously this dense? Let me map this out for you: Another clueless kid, like you, was making the incorrect statement that Bas has more kick KO's than Cro Cop. I simply corrected him without making any judgements about who is the better kicker/fighter. When I was simply correcting the idiot who actually WAS comparing who is better, you irrelevantly decide to reply to me saying that comparing the two is "retarded" when I was just correcting him...?
@greatestxgift Holy shit, you cannot be this idiotic. So, you claim you're not comparing them, yet you are citing the record of cro cop and the record of Bas. So another dumb jit like you made a statement that was incorrect, and your apparent response to understanding that the two could not be compared is to cite their records and say you're not comparing them. Please tell me this is what you're saying, because I haven't had a good laugh at the expense of a halfwit today.
@Ligierthegreensun You are seriously more idiotic than I could ever imagine. If you're correcting someone who inaccurately states that one fighter has more kick KO's than another, how else do you prove that their statement is incorrect if you don't compare how many kick KO's each fighter has...? How is it "retarded" to correct someone who made a false statement by citing actual facts about the two fighters and how many kick KO's each had? Do you realize how stupid you are seriously coming of as?
@greatestxgift Thank you, I've now had my laugh. Are you seriously sitting there telling me that you are not comparing by citing. When did I say you weren't correcting them, idiot? Oh yeah, never. I said that you're comparing them, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE doing. Do you know the definition of words you use? Again, this is amazing how much of a moron you are.
@Ligierthegreensun There's no way you're seriously this dense...is it? Why is it "retarded" to correct someone who is perpetuating misinformation on public forums? That was originally what you replied to me regarding...so how is it "retarded" to compare stats from two fighters to make a point about why someone is incorrect about a false statement they made?
@Ligierthegreensun I never said I wasn't comparing each fighter's record and stats, I only stated that I wasn't comparing which fighter is better in anway. I was only comparing their stats to correct someone who was making false statements. Are you seriously lacking basic reading comprehension skills to where you can't understand that? Is that too complicated for your feeble mind to grasp?
@greatestxgift Evidently you do not understand the definition of "comparing", and as such, I'm not surprised that you were dumb enough to state that contrasting two fighter's records together wasn't comparing them.
@Ligierthegreensun I know it's been hard for you to stay with this conversation but I never said I wasn't comparing the two fighter's records and stats, I said, specifically, that I wasn't comparing which fighter was better in anyway. You still haven't my question: Why is it "retarded" to compare stats from two fighters to make a point about why someone is incorrect about a false statement they made regarding those stats? Either way, it's been hilarious making you look like a fool.
@Ligierthegreensun So, basically I'm "retarded" for correcting an idiot from perpetuating misinformation on public forums...? I didn't bring up any discussion about comparing the two and made it clear that I wasn't making any judgement about who is better..the other kid did and I, one more time, simply corrected him. You make absolutely no sense and you look like a complete fool who lacks elementary reading comprehension.
HAHA what makes me laugh is he stopped fighting because he doesnt have any cartilage in he legs/knees anymore . This was made after he finished fighting so imagine if he was in his prime.
Also Randy said he kicks like a mule.... i thought it was that mules kick like Bas Rutten.
lol. stupid test. All the other fighters are like ants compared to bas rutten's size. This show's conclusion is half right: MMA kicks, based on Muay thai kicks, are more effective. But this is Bas Rutten. It's like being shot with a rocket launcher after being shot with a 9mm handgun...
@punkmusicmetal my point is that hes not even a heavyweight, i would like to see if cro cop or somebody else kicks harder..but i guess 6'1 205 isnt big to me either because its smaller than i am..i think thats why its amazing to me, because he kicks that hard but is smaller than i am by 3 inches and 25 pounds
@TWBouska Size doesn't matter as much as technique. I weigh 145 pounds and kick harder than some of the heavyweights I train with. Not saying I wouldn't kick even harder if I weighed as much as a heavyweight fighter, but Bas Rutten has some of the hardest kicks in MMA because he has the best technique and he's also a bigger guy.
@Kevzilla123 i definitely won't debate that with you, my whole point in my comment was basically trying to say the same thing that you just said, that basically he's not the biggest fighter out there, so there's more to power than sheer mass, i mentioned cro cop because he is also a monster when it comes to kicking power.
@TWBouska Ya, definitely true. It's a shame that when a lot of people train, they're misled into building more bulk muscle to strike harder instead of focusing on technique. Cro Cop or Liddell would be monsters at this test too, because their technique is just so good.
@Kevzilla123 yeah i would like to see a test similar to this with striking...i have a feeling liddell would do well at this test, although not sure how much, i think he catches a lot of guys off guard because of his kenpo style being a little unorthodox
@TWBouska That's true. I'm not sure exactly how much power he puts behind a lot of his strikes because of that. It might just be that he knows exactly where and when to strike better than most pros. Cro Cop's definitely a powerful kicker though. For punching power, I'd like to see Cain Velasquez on that test. His boxing is lethal.
@Kevzilla123 cro cops kicks sound like gun shots when they hit...ive never seen anything like that before...cain hits like a truck..rampage hits pretty hard too.
@TWBouska Yea, his kicks sound really loud when they hit. Cain makes those death grunts when he punches though, so that might muffle the sound of the strike a little lol
Bas Rutten is a monster. He should have a class of his own. That kick is almost twice as devastating as the average MMA fighters kick. His punches are equally as brutal.
I love the science behind this but there is a fatal flaw from jump. You do not have an accurate base line. The trouble is..no two fighters are alike. Taking a master of it like Bas Rutten or Randy Coutoure is not the same as say an average mma fighter. So if every man is different you only have what that specific person can generate not what a group as a whole can. So saying...how does mma measure up against muay thai? is a broad generalization.
Actually this IS an mma kick, Thai fighters step then pivot on the ball of the foot.
Bas designed this kick especially for MMA (pride mostly) where you just explode into the kick with your hips eliminating the pivot. Cro Cop and Bas both use this technique and look how much more effective it is.
More UFC Nut sucking, they fail to mention that Bas weighs almost 70+ lbs more than the Muay Thai champion....Lets get George Foreman to hit one of those dummies, he will get higher numbers than them all...
Bas is very well known for his kick strength. He takes down very large men with a couple of leg kicks. It has less to do with his size and more with his incredibly explosive technique. His non kicking foot turns, loading the waist. All that potential energy is released like a cannon firing and Bas concentrates it into his shin.
Fatality!!!

I've been doing it easily have you even done it for 2 minutes without stopping at. You obviously didn't hear about my other training workouts.

In MMA we do alter our body. I had to do jumping jacks for 2 minutes straight without stopping,sounds easy until you do it. Jumprope 1 minute straight without stopping. The reason why randy catoure was able to punch harder on the ground then standing up is because we're told to put our weight in our punches plus in the full guard it's harder to get out of then it is as if you were getting conererd. Trust me I know.

@Spiderman7670 If you cant do jumping jacks for 2mins straight than your pretty pathetic thats not training thats a warm up.

Remember as I said before I take both MMA & Muay Thai. It all depends on how you train your. In Muay we're told kicl heavy bags at full force plus a light contact knee feels more cut like a kitchen knife plus we're told to breath everytime we punch or breath in & out because it slows down our heart rate meaning we can go at it longer.

This is surprisingly lenient on critical review compared to the more skeptical stance in other NatGeo shows like Is It Real?, which I enjoy......this show is a joke.

They sould let all the fighters throw the same kick. It has to depend on the person. Not just mma style. Those fuckers just want to say mma has the hardest kick, but trust me it depends on the fighter.

@lilsm555 I'm not saying that Cro Cop kicks harder than Bas but Cro Cop definitely has more kick KO's than Rutten and that's an inarguable fact. You seriously have no idea what you're talking about.

@greatestxgift hm im not sure of that 90% of bas ruttens fights have ended in KO he had like 15 or 16 kick boxing bouts thats not even counting mma or pancreas.
lilsm555 10 months ago
@lilsm555 Cro Cop has had a lot more kick boxing bouts than Bas has. Also, in MMA, Bas didn't have anywhere near a 90 percent KO rate (not even half that rate) and didn't have as many kick KO's as Cro Cop so what exactly are you talking about?
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@greatestxgift Bas fought for significantly less time than Cro Cop professionally. To compare them is retarded.

@greatestxgift Yeah, except for when you were.. you know, comparing them. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you're not the sharpest tool in the shed.
Ligierthegreensun 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun I stated, very clearly, that I not making any comparisons about who kicks harder or who is the better striker/fighter. I simply replied to someone else making the comment about Cro Cop having more kick KO's than Bas Rutten. What I stated was simply a fact not opinion. Are you seriously not bright enough to comprehend that?
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@greatestxgift So wait, you're not comparing them, you're just espousing that Bas had less KO's than cro cop, and less by knockout, but you're not comparing. Are you an idiot or ... what?
Ligierthegreensun 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun Wow, are you seriously this dense? Let me map this out for you: Another clueless kid, like you, was making the incorrect statement that Bas has more kick KO's than Cro Cop. I simply corrected him without making any judgements about who is the better kicker/fighter. When I was simply correcting the idiot who actually WAS comparing who is better, you irrelevantly decide to reply to me saying that comparing the two is "retarded" when I was just correcting him...?
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@greatestxgift Holy shit, you cannot be this idiotic. So, you claim you're not comparing them, yet you are citing the record of cro cop and the record of Bas. So another dumb jit like you made a statement that was incorrect, and your apparent response to understanding that the two could not be compared is to cite their records and say you're not comparing them. Please tell me this is what you're saying, because I haven't had a good laugh at the expense of a halfwit today.
Ligierthegreensun 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun You are seriously more idiotic than I could ever imagine. If you're correcting someone who inaccurately states that one fighter has more kick KO's than another, how else do you prove that their statement is incorrect if you don't compare how many kick KO's each fighter has...? How is it "retarded" to correct someone who made a false statement by citing actual facts about the two fighters and how many kick KO's each had? Do you realize how stupid you are seriously coming of as?
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@greatestxgift Thank you, I've now had my laugh. Are you seriously sitting there telling me that you are not comparing by citing. When did I say you weren't correcting them, idiot? Oh yeah, never. I said that you're comparing them, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE doing. Do you know the definition of words you use? Again, this is amazing how much of a moron you are.
Ligierthegreensun 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun There's no way you're seriously this dense...is it? Why is it "retarded" to correct someone who is perpetuating misinformation on public forums? That was originally what you replied to me regarding...so how is it "retarded" to compare stats from two fighters to make a point about why someone is incorrect about a false statement they made?
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun I never said I wasn't comparing each fighter's record and stats, I only stated that I wasn't comparing which fighter is better in anway. I was only comparing their stats to correct someone who was making false statements. Are you seriously lacking basic reading comprehension skills to where you can't understand that? Is that too complicated for your feeble mind to grasp?
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@greatestxgift Evidently you do not understand the definition of "comparing", and as such, I'm not surprised that you were dumb enough to state that contrasting two fighter's records together wasn't comparing them.
Ligierthegreensun 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun I know it's been hard for you to stay with this conversation but I never said I wasn't comparing the two fighter's records and stats, I said, specifically, that I wasn't comparing which fighter was better in anyway. You still haven't my question: Why is it "retarded" to compare stats from two fighters to make a point about why someone is incorrect about a false statement they made regarding those stats? Either way, it's been hilarious making you look like a fool.
greatestxgift 10 months ago
@Ligierthegreensun So, basically I'm "retarded" for correcting an idiot from perpetuating misinformation on public forums...? I didn't bring up any discussion about comparing the two and made it clear that I wasn't making any judgement about who is better..the other kid did and I, one more time, simply corrected him. You make absolutely no sense and you look like a complete fool who lacks elementary reading comprehension.

punkmusicmetal 1 year ago
@punkmusicmetal my point is that hes not even a heavyweight, i would like to see if cro cop or somebody else kicks harder..but i guess 6'1 205 isnt big to me either because its smaller than i am..i think thats why its amazing to me, because he kicks that hard but is smaller than i am by 3 inches and 25 pounds
TWBouska 1 year ago
@TWBouska Size doesn't matter as much as technique. I weigh 145 pounds and kick harder than some of the heavyweights I train with. Not saying I wouldn't kick even harder if I weighed as much as a heavyweight fighter, but Bas Rutten has some of the hardest kicks in MMA because he has the best technique and he's also a bigger guy.
Kevzilla123 1 year ago
@Kevzilla123 i definitely won't debate that with you, my whole point in my comment was basically trying to say the same thing that you just said, that basically he's not the biggest fighter out there, so there's more to power than sheer mass, i mentioned cro cop because he is also a monster when it comes to kicking power.
TWBouska 1 year ago
@TWBouska Ya, definitely true. It's a shame that when a lot of people train, they're misled into building more bulk muscle to strike harder instead of focusing on technique. Cro Cop or Liddell would be monsters at this test too, because their technique is just so good.
Kevzilla123 1 year ago
@Kevzilla123 yeah i would like to see a test similar to this with striking...i have a feeling liddell would do well at this test, although not sure how much, i think he catches a lot of guys off guard because of his kenpo style being a little unorthodox
TWBouska 1 year ago
@TWBouska That's true. I'm not sure exactly how much power he puts behind a lot of his strikes because of that. It might just be that he knows exactly where and when to strike better than most pros. Cro Cop's definitely a powerful kicker though. For punching power, I'd like to see Cain Velasquez on that test. His boxing is lethal.
Kevzilla123 1 year ago
@Kevzilla123 cro cops kicks sound like gun shots when they hit...ive never seen anything like that before...cain hits like a truck..rampage hits pretty hard too.

Bas Rutten is a monster. He should have a class of his own. That kick is almost twice as devastating as the average MMA fighters kick. His punches are equally as brutal.
fyrmike 1 year ago
I love the science behind this but there is a fatal flaw from jump. You do not have an accurate base line. The trouble is..no two fighters are alike. Taking a master of it like Bas Rutten or Randy Coutoure is not the same as say an average mma fighter. So if every man is different you only have what that specific person can generate not what a group as a whole can. So saying...how does mma measure up against muay thai? is a broad generalization.

Actually this IS an mma kick, Thai fighters step then pivot on the ball of the foot.
Bas designed this kick especially for MMA (pride mostly) where you just explode into the kick with your hips eliminating the pivot. Cro Cop and Bas both use this technique and look how much more effective it is.

Bas is very well known for his kick strength. He takes down very large men with a couple of leg kicks. It has less to do with his size and more with his incredibly explosive technique. His non kicking foot turns, loading the waist. All that potential energy is released like a cannon firing and Bas concentrates it into his shin.
