This movie rocked. Remeber the Monkey dude that fought? RobotCrypt has an article about where he'd be in the current mma environment. Pretty funny stuff. Just google RobotCrypt and it's their latest article.
Reminds me of Jones (Bones) from UFC when he fought Rampage, lol.. He did the exact same thing in round 1.... Try to find it on youtube if you can....
I used to watch bloodsport all the time when i was little, but back then i didn't know much about racism. This is just embarrassing I wonder how much they paid the guy, and is this fighting style even real.
Is this monkey style real? I suspect it is otherwise thy wouldn't have added it to all the other real styles in the movie:- sumo, karate, kickboxing, capoiera etc
@sowetoboi I never understand why it's "racist" to call someone how they actually are. Calling Lebron James a monkey is racist of course... but THIS guy is like a monkey. And... is it racist to say Patrick Ewing looks ape-like?
@JohnLeeMD I tottaly think it's just culturally insensitive.Considering the history of black people it's no different than calling him the N word.It's very degrading
@sowetoboi What I'm saying is, it's so stupid to refrain from saying a guy is a ape or a monkey, when they in fact look like a monkey. It's actually more racist, to patronize an individual by ignoring an obvious characteristic.
Monkey Man's coconut chops were the prequel to ground and pound fighting. He basically revolutionized mixed martial arts. Monkey Man will always be a Silverback in my book.
some people think the monkey fighter died, but I don't think so because when Chon Li killed that fighter and everyone had a moment of silence for him,I believe they would have showed that form of respect for him as well. I like to think he just got badly hurt, for his sake.
I like in the first fight how the opponent squares him up then throws a punch that misses by about 2 feet. In the second fight I don't understand why the monkey fighter keeps trying to go high on the sumo. In the first fight he wins easily by attacking the legs. He should have done that against the sumo. He was way too far in the tourney to all of a sudden change strategies. If he would have stuck to what got him there he would have possibly beat the sumo and been in the final four.
Actually he wouldn't have been in the final four winning that bout, he would have been in the quarter final bout where he would have faced Dux. The winner of that bout would have then faced Paco in the Semi-finals and the winner of that would have faced Chong Li in the finals.
Monkey Man would have confused Dux with his unconventional monkey fighting style. If you notice, all of Dux opponents have structured fighting patterns. Not Monkey Man. Monkey Man bounces and twirls. Dux wouldn't know what hit him. One coconut chop to Dux head would have knocked him out. Same tactics would totally confuse and defeat Paco and Chong Li. Monkey Man should have won the tournament.
You don't know martial arts at all, do you? Most fights in movies are mostly flashy moves and shit, and have little to do with flow and rhythm games that exist in pro competitions. Monkey Man was just a funny movie gimmick, and that's as far as it goes. Getting theoretical about fight scenes in a movie is actually quite pointless.
agreed. In many ways the Monkey Fighter was way ahead of his time - he had a legitimate ground game, which is now a staple of any legitimate MMA fighter. In his first fight, he throws a leg kick, and shoots for a double leg takedown and immediately takes his opponent's back.
I think we can both agree the Frank Dux got extremely lucky with the Sumo matchup. I doubt he'd match up nearly as well with the Monkey Fighter; his propensity for high kicks would be ineffective and leave him wide open.
This is a phenomenal video, and the comments posted below are cracking me up. I just wish you'd have posted the training scene with the coconuts from the start of the movie. No matter. Bravo.
