Gegard Mousasi vs Renato Sobral

[FighterArmenian]

WE ARE ARMENIANS, WE ARE THE FIRST CHRISTIANS!

[iHye1]

DAMN THAT WAS QUICK!!! MOUSASI IS # 1

[whole27]

The most amazing thing about Gegard and Shogun and Fedor is how they will punch with such force and accuracy and the moment the opponent is knocked out, they will have the compassion to stop punching themselves before the ref can even get to them!

[crowley0312]

Whats awsome about watching Mousasi fight is that he usually punches the crap out of his opponent and puts the fight away in the first round. And it's hilarious how calm he always is, like he knows he's the best.

[realfreakaynaughtay]

Mousasi has the insane, Fedor mentality. Guy just fights on impulse like a madman.

[Rodrigosuprem]

Mousasi is a Killer, one of the best of all times

[GANclanMW3]

anyone else think that the face mousasi makes at the start is funny?

[MetaIhead89]

lol look at Mousasi's back at 0:36.. all muscles?

[rickyrizk71]

Mousasi looked ridiculously calm before the fight

[Dats1976]

Tá pra vir o dia que esse Babalu vai bater em alguém...o maluco só apanha...putz

[Astronaughty03]

Now if mousasi would have kept punching after mccarthys call that th fight was over "to teach him respect" he probably would have died.

Renato is a douchecunt.

[spacemanspiff9393]

The best part of this fight is the way that Mousasi looks at the screen in the very beginning.

[julianisdope]

@spacemanspiff9393 lol its the perfect "i got this' face

[storytimeguitar]

mcarthy is an awesome ref

[DieEierVonSatanus]

Mousasi is one of my favourite fighters and so under rated

[iHye1]

Mousasi = Best Fighter

[wolverine223]

this guy is iranian, born and raised

[ThaChosenChild]

@wolverine223 He's Iranian? He's Armenian buddy.

[zwerdsw]

@ThaChosenChild He was born in Iran to Armenian parents then moved to Holland at 4.

[ThaChosenChild]

@zwerdsw Yea, that makes him Armenian.

[imz47986]

are u ready are you ready? LETS GET IT AWN!!!!!!!!!!

[attilaclark]

I would love to see gegard fight Silva ...that would be one to watch.

[Yacuzainthemix]

@attilaclark silva would beat his ass ?

[baihbalm]

Mousasi's wins the staredown cause he made me laugh with his goofy relaxed face ;)

[ShorinRyuRonin]

Yes he is Armenian but born as raised in Iran as many Armenians are not from Armenia. WOW lets ignore where the guys nationality is from.

[ArmenianNetwork]

Armenians are talented people, too bad the Turks have massacred 1.5 of our civilians including defenseless women and children. We would have more talents in the world if it wasn't for Genocide

[baihbalm]

@ArmenianNetwork Turks have a reputation of ethnic cleansing, but no superpower cares unless those being murdered have oil in their lands or are of strategic importance to said power. Kuwait, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Egypt and Saudi Arabia come to mind... I'm depressed now

[ArmenianNetwork]

@baihbalm I agree

[AintDoneYet123]

mousasi looks like a 15 year old kid

[zikadopantanal1]

0:02 hahahahahahha

[Mate2229]

he is killer with good heart

[RUSSTRADAMUS]

I think BABALU is a cool looking man ...pause... no homo & hes tough & has fought way better competition than this MOUSASI dude. I am pretty sure MOUSASI will finally get his first TKO/KO loss soon

[mma850]

@RUSSTRADAMUS u must dont know Mousasi is a high level fighter he has even grappled against fedor and his submission are possibly better than Babalu

[RUSSTRADAMUS]

@mma850

yeah ur right I was hating on him before I researched him fully. he is a great fighter MY BAD

[SUBIESAMURAI07]

mousasi always looks sleepy and lazy man 0:02 but when the game beginsss.... warr

[William241280]

Mousasi every time show his incredible talent!!!

[alucardseperdalv]

Mousasi vs Jones should be the all mma lightheavyweight finale

[FifteenIsTheNumber]

Mousasi has got incredible balance!

[str8bigr1]

Babalu really needs to retire

[MrChuggernaut]

He not top 3 lightheavy he has not fight big names yet

[323MELKONATOR]

@MrChuggernaut yah bro he is even search it up

[StrongArmStylez]

@MrChuggernaut fuck out of here on him not being a top 3 light heavy! titles held Dream Light Heavyweight champion, Dream Middleweight Champion, Cage Warriors Middleweight Champion Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion.. wins over damn good opponents Hector Lombard, Evangelista Santos, Dennis Kang, Sokoudjou, Melvin Manhoef, Ronaldo Souza, Mark Hunt,Gary Goodridge and Renato Sobral. tired of corny hicks who only watch UFC and not pay attention to the rest of the MMA world, past or present.

[realnarutoboy]

@StrongArmStylez

That's an impressive list minus Gary Goodridge.

[gosciu555]

Mousasi is a freaking hunchback. 

[unleashymma]

top 3 ligh heavyweight

[CombatSportsFan]

gayhard is a beast. get him in the UFC asap

[logicCplusplus]

Dana is an ass for not taking Mousasi seriously. He might know business, but he doesn't know a incredible fighter when he sees one.

Gegard is on par with Anderson Silva, and he is much younger.

[underdogs247]

Im shocked Dana hasn't had this taken down yet lol

[MannyMMA]

babalu sucks

[sdeevooo]

he was born in Iraq and grew up in Netherlands. why are they saying that he did boxing in Armenia.....

[IronlVIan]

@sdeevooo Probably because his parents were Armenian

[ljyarpe]

@sdeevooo It says he was born in Iran on wikiedia

[ivantnt26]

@ljyarpe bullshit he was born in Armenia then they moved in Iran, wikipedia is not 100% truthful source of information

[commonsen5e]

@ivantnt26 lol Born to Iranian parents in Armenia lol.

[ThaChosenChild]

@ljyarpe Learn to read kid. "Mousasi was born in Tehran,Iran to ethnic Armenian parents during the Iran-Iraq War." - Source, Wikipedia.

[ljyarpe]

@ThaChosenChild That's what i fucking said. And they say it while he is fighting all the time

[draculasama]

esse babalu só apanha

[Guaslan]

Babalu was a heavyweight fighter..!

[monttana23]

Musasi go to the UFC...!!!!

[ArmeniaKicksAss]

Gegard is great! He will fight in the UFC. Personally, I am not a big fan of the UFC, but they have great LHWs. Shogun, Machida, Rampage, Rashad and few others will all be great competition for Mousasi and I think after he gets his Strikeforce belt back, Dana White will be sure to offer him a contract. Personally, I reckon Gegard is a Top 5 Light Heavyweight when he's on his game and 90% of the time he is. He has world class striking and his ground game is as impressive as anyone else's! :)

[maxkrancher]

Dutch style trained MMA Monster.

[jrcova6160]

He is a good fighter but UFC has greater talent but he would do good in the UFC.

[jjohnson218]

lol the commentary t the end

gus johnson:"HE'S OUT!!! FOLKS!! WE GOTTA STARR!!!" (crazy yelling)

muaro:" he's arrived" (calm voice)

gus johnson:" THE ARMENIAN!!!!"

muaro renallo:"assassin"

gus:" ASSASSIN!!!!!"

[1Airsoftsniper]

METAL MULISHA!!!!

[mattyh5101]

You can really tell a sportsperson is talented when they make their sport look easy, as Mousasi usually does.

[Vgard]

you know how this fight is gonna end by looking at mousasi's face 0:01

[luchozx]

Gegard Mousasi! Yeah!

Luciano, Bs As, Argentina.

[feducardi00]

@luchozx Se aguante Mousasi jaja

[Nach09]

@feducardi00 es el mejor loco jajaja

[Svittidiu]

0:35 look at his back. His posture sucks big time :D

[thestoebz]

holy shit.

[maydaymanify]

The fucking ugly armenian bastard is dating the battlecat!!

[iHye1]

@maydaymanify That Armenian Prodigy WILL make YOU His Bitch in 30 seconds !!! Gurantee you... :)

[hungmanhtran]

set him up with Anderson silva?

[FreeeeStyleee]

wow



[Aiko518518]

he should have kept punching even tho big john tried to stop the fight

is exactly what Renato Sobral did at ufc 74

[wade2bosh]

mentally/emotionally this guy is on fedors level

[anorexicdave]

fuck babalu

[jin37uk]

definitely one of the best LHW in the world

[asforemita]

Mousasi looked at the camera and smiled :) at 0:02...

To me he is a top 3 for sure LHW if not number one.

[rampagecarl]

@asforemita who has he fought???

[yazergs]

renato sobral has a sick tattoo

[Dongeda22]

ahahhaha he killed him hahah great job

[gprt22]

No doubt he is a proud Armenian but he had his amateur boxing career in the netherlands. He never even lived in Armenia because he lived in Iran and moved to the Netherlands when he was 4 years old, so commenter: Get your facts straight!

[Punk4Life408]

renato neck tattoo looks hella badass

[joefarries]

he will kill that NIG king lowall

[MherDza]

Mousasi is a Killer! He will destroy Any MMA Fighter!!!

[I4ce]

The smirk by Mousasi at the glove touch is classic.

[magmagmag715]

yeah man he almost seems bored to be in the cage lol

[bloodwish13]

mousasi=relax

[WarrockIcicle]

What i like about Mousasi is that he is simple, he doesnt look like a fucking freak, like Cyborg, or even like Renato. He's just himself.

[Yalashaska]

Mousasi is the best fighter in the world after Fedor

[rampagecarl]

machida,anderson silva,rampage,thiago silva,rashad evans,lil nog would all rape him brutally ;o)

[Yalashaska]

In your f#*king dreams

[ender2reynolds]

@rampagecarl and those are... piece of shit fighters in a piece of shit promotion right?

[rampagecarl]

carry on watching shiteforce,u r not even worthy of what i've written!!!

[XiaoPow]

@rampagecarl

You just called it shiteforce and you say you love MMA, but it's clear you just like the UFC brand.

[xFazalx]

@rampagecarl

dude, no one can tell you're a ufc fanboy

but a match between mousasi and silva or machida would be gold

[rampagecarl]

i'm an mma fan in general no matter what organization! but Mousasi can't be considered one of "the best" till he fights some of the best which do happen to be in the ufc

[SamuraixJack]

@rampagecarl zll the smell of trolls in the morning :D

[rampagecarl]

@SamuraixJack zll????? please learn some english!

[SamuraixJack]

@rampagecarl please learn some MMA! fail XD

[rampagecarl]

@SamuraixJack anything about mma you wanna talk about then talk.i'm an educated fan and practitioner so please bring on any topic and we'll discuss it like men instead of you being a child and throwing around infantile name calling!!

[SamuraixJack]

@rampagecarl alright fine. how can you say that mousasi would easily be defeated with the resume he has?

[rampagecarl]

@SamuraixJack if i said he was easily defeatable i apologise but here's the deal,when you're fighting in "inferior" organisations to the ufc then the old saying "you can't be the man if you don't beat the man" is true.i wouldn't class beating babalu as a major accomplishment,hendo smashed babalu too but got owned by shields.i as an amateur will never say a fighter is shit because they are where they are for a reason but mousasi is a top 10 fighter right now at best unless he beats a big name.

[SamuraixJack]

@rampagecarl But see thats the thing. your saying " Inferior" based on the ufc being the best, when most ufc guys who leave go and get their butts kicked in other organizations. i agree with you saying mousasi is top 10.

[rampagecarl]

@SamuraixJack for mousasi's weight division i'd say the ufc by far has the most talented pool of fighters...shogun,rampage,mach­ida,jon jones,and so on.the same was said of pride in it's day but when the "best" of pride came to the ufc they didn't fare to well either (wandy,hendo,kang,nog,lil nog etc) i'm not a ufc nuthugger i just accept they are the big dogs at the moment.

[tfrenn]

@rampagecarl I'd say they did pretty well considering the fact that they had to adjust to a whole a new style of fighting, a fight in Pride and a fight in the UFC r 2 totally different fights, ones in a cage and favors wrestlers and ones in a ring which favors strikers, if the UFC fighters had to come over to Pride they would've been dominated even worst, Shogun, Rampage, Henderson, and Anderson Silva all held there own in the UFC pretty well. Besides for Shogun none them have been Knocked out!

[tfrenn]

@rampagecarl Dan Henderson was not owned by Sheilds, he was taken down and dry humped for the whole fight. That fight sucked dick, in my eyes if you hold someone down for 5 rds and do no damage u didn't win the fight.

[rampagecarl]

@tfrenn it may of sucked dick but your opinion has no bearing on the actual result and it was unanimous for shields, i personally cannot stand shields he's sa boring if not more so than gsp!

[imstilly]

Strikeforce broadcaster: "Folks, we got a star" lol dickhead.

[CanadianNinja613]

funny how Big John looks at Sobral when he says "When I want you to stop, I want you to stop"

[slim22rj]

mousasi must go to ufc, quickly.

[papichulobumber1]

Mousasi always shows class, never gives a punch to many, deals out just enough to win.

I like that, it shows that he's in control of his emotions.

[TGUNZ562]

@papichulobumber1 Naw, not me. I like the fighters who beat there opponents as viciously as possible before the ref can move in. It shows that they are there to fight, a attribute that, in my opinion, is far more important for a professional mixed martial artist to have than emotion control.

[bf2pownzorz]

@TGUNZ562 They're there to fight, not to injure their opponent in the most brutal way possible. There is no benefit in viciously beating an opponent who is beyond the ability to fight back. As this is a sport, emotional and physical control are far more valuable and respectable attributes than blunt aggression. Unless you're an angry asshole who glorifies violence.

[asdfghjkl1989god]

@papichulobumber1 thats what separates real fighter from some psyho from the street :)

[papichulobumber1]

@asdfghjkl1989god

psychos with skills could do quite well in the fightgame .But i just like that lay back attitude towards a fight Mousasi has. It has something superior to stand in front of a dude with fire in his eyes, who wants to kill you. While you stay totally relax with a friendly smile on your face.

[SickVicious996]

@papichulobumber1 i don't think he has any emotions to control. Dude looks expressionless. lol!

[Armeniashots]

@papichulobumber1 like all armenians, never hurting you, but when you hurt him, he will punish you

[Ivanmasters]

Excelente qualidade do vídeo. Podendo, posta mais. Vlw

[cypsation]

hahah i love the "yeah i got this" look on his face before the fight.

[artemka0201]

Red Devil FT как не крути КРУЧЕ ВСЕХ....

[fuckabledude]

he's oooout!!

[psypholicious]

Dana heres a legit title contender!!

[SmokenxKush]

anybody with good takedown defence and good hands could beat sobral

[omglollmao123]

I don't see why people are raving about this knock out so much.

Mousasi got a very sloppy take down, Babalu almost pulled out of his side control and then he managed to land some fairly insignificant punches. (Considering the amount and the accuracy, the damage was fairly minimal).

I'm not doubting Mousasi as a fighter, he's very capable, but this is not his best performance.

[Presup1973]

Babalu almost pulled out but he didn.`t .Sloppy take down,but a takedown nevertheless.Fairly significant punches?.I would say very significant,was he not out?.And faily minimal? damage?.Was not the fight stopped?. Not his best performance?. Mousasi was done with Babalu in the first round.Nuf said.

[cypsation]

he beat a fighter of sobrals caliber in 1 minute without taking any damge. Are you stupid. That take down looks easy but you have to be really good to pull it off because it takes precise timing and quick thinking to pull it off. You can't just pull off a knee pick its not that easy.

[BloodyLovin]

Armenia sure has copious amounts of hardasses considering its a race of only like 3 or 4 million

[cypsation]

hahah im not armenian but it sure seems that way.

[Despair805]

that combo mousasi put him out with was a lightning fast barrage of punches....so accurate that every single one landed too and he knew exactly when he was out. this guy is the REAL DEAL. watch out light heavy weight divisino.

[dumorius]

Only 2 of his last 13 opponents have even made it to the second round, haters say what you want, this dude is for real

[dvsxavier]

mousasi got $2,000 for this fight...no bonus for the win or the ko...this is fucked up...

how can strikeforce be so CHEAP???

how do u expect a pedigree mma fighter like mousasi to make a living at $2,000? it's not even going to cover his plane ticket to japan for the october 6th, dream 11 tournament.

strikeforce is going to lose this guy, when the ufc starts showing mousasi the money...

[KillRalph]

It's well documented that since he's managed by M-1, he gets an undisclosed amount of 'bonus' outside of US to avoid paying tax.

[GracieKiller]

Mousasi actually received close to $100k for this fight, but they paid it through M-1, so it's not on the disclosed payroll. Obviously, he would never accept $2k considering he has been earning $50k+ per fightt in Japan, and decided to compete in Strikeforce instead.

[rsuryase]

Mousasi get paid from M-1, aka Fedor's pocket. Darn, Fedor not only a fighter but also a businessman, what a sellout.

[RiseOfArmenia]

The Armenians Assasin haha I love that shit =))))

[jehushaphat]

now strikeforce has 2 of the best fighters in mma!!!

[jehushaphat]

holy $hit!!! this guy can beat anyone in ufc, including silva!

[ncampbell01]

Dude, Mousasi is the next big thing. Watch out Anderson and Machida/Rua; when the UFC signs this guy, he's going to win the Middle and Light Heavyweight titles; mark my words!

[RiseOfArmenia]

Damn man look at Gegard hes soo freaking calm but hes like a freaking machine when he gets down.

[gunswordfist]

Yeah, him being calm and then unleashing the beast on Babalu was crazy!!

[kagolko]

Guys! I just found out, that Fedor has another special power. Besides being a Russian secret project he also turn fighters to the Cyborgs.. honestly. It's like X-man stuff lol just look how calm and perfect Gegard is. it's just unreal.

[SaimonAdebisi]

good point :)))

[conveck]

what the fuck was so impressive i mean yeah he beat sobral but holy shit people think he could fight machida or anderson silva? give me a fucking break people...

[SaimonAdebisi]

Ofcourse he can... look at the record man!

[metaldudebuff92]

Anyone think Babalu could make middleweight?

that might be interesting

[jdymes101101]

he could easily make middleweight

[metaldudebuff92]

I think he should do it

[omglollmao123]

He's fought as a fairly average sized LHW so it wouldn't that much of a far cry to step down to MW.

[metaldudebuff92]

At :2

mousasi's like "yeah I just woke up from a nap...time to whoop some ass"

[metaldudebuff92]

2 seconds in, lol

[st762410]

i think he's one of the top p4p guys out there. i think he'll give silva and machida a good fight. he has complete game.

[CarlosMarioMedellin]

Disgrace for Brazil. He was knocked out easily. How about Mousasi for UFC Dana?

[randy19811]

Babalu sucks! Jon jones would fucking kill him!

[conveck]

i hope your joking

[batman621]

I would pick Babalu to win against Jon Jones.

[fartbender09]

u guys better watch jon jones

[uniqueceez]

i think babalu will go back and train hard, and go back to a couple of wins and face mousasi again....if he remains champ. mousasi was the better fighter that night.

[Grieverus]

Thanks for upload it in HD! :)

[susuleleco]

esse babalu so faz vergonha pra nois

[FuckingBoozer]

LHW division are gonna have a serious problem when Moussasi come's to the UFC. Ive been saying for years he's so underrated , this proves it.

[sjl36]

yup, hes gonna explode in the US. hes amazing and will not be underrated after a couple more wins

[UallMine]

Oh fucking shit. Fucking killer quality video.

[ThePantanalBluesMan]

Renato Babalú não cheire mais cocaína. abraço de quem quer seu bem.

[RayLewis1982]

barikala agha mousasi

[matkone]

WAR GEEGARD MOUSASI !! the Dreamcatcher of the lhw division

[isafany]

That's how you get it done!!! MOUSASI WHAT A BEAST!!! My fav fighter at 205 after Shogun :P

[mahangodownurpants]

I agree with you but i'd have to say Lyoto is my favorite after Anderson since you can count him, but them two are next then Wandi from what he did in pride

[nick122122123]

beating babalu isn't much of an accomplishment
