Great fight. Leben put on a show as usual, win or lose I pay to see that kind of heart and determination. Keep it up Leben! And hats off to my fellow Marine Brian Stann Oohrah!
He didn't make excuses. That's what I like to see out of a fighter. If you lose, you lost to the better guy and that's it. Don't try and take away his win by saying "I was sick with the flu" or "I had an injury that prevented me from implementing my gameplan." Leben has the intelligence to realize this. Thanks for showing some class.
of all the people you know around town, who of them are going over seas? complete fucking douche bags! what makes a person want to risk their life in order to travel to someplace we have no buisness being in order to kill others? "weapons of mass destruction" "war on terror" or how about massive amounts of goods you cant find over here. oil, natural gas, opium. you people are fighting a list of lies! why arn't the politians sons fighting the war their fathers created? we die for their glory!
I personally know Chris and he was super sick for that fight, But as you can expect from a warrior like Leben he chose to see it through. AFter Wanderlei, its "Chris leben vs Costa Rica". Google it!
OOOOOOOOOOK.........HE FOUGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY SO THAT MAKES HIM WHAT? HE IS STILL A DOUCHE BAG......GFY......................he is a no body and will never be CHAMPION
@fag1968 well you're obviously considerably more of a nobody than he is since he's famous. And he is still a professionnal fighter fighting for the biggest promotion in the world so... I don't know you but I think since you're on youtube, hating, it's a safe bet to guess that this is more than you've ever done.
@fag1968 why because he fought for our country in iraq and now because he's fighting for our entertainment? if anyone is a douche its you. and you wouldn't have the balls to say that to Stanns face because you know he's 100 times the man you'll ever be!
for those wondering chris had the flu his temp was 103 degrees for goodness sake chris isn't one to make excuses when he loses a fight his coaches said what happened if they didn't we would of never known chris was sick...
Man leben such a real fighter, none of that dancing around crap.. Hate to see him lose; Leben and maia sounds cool but i think leben and the loser of jorge and bisping sounds more reasonable
My favorite fighters are the ones who want to throwdown and will never attempt to lay and pray or stall... Chris Leben,Dan Hardy,Anderson Silva,Brandon Vera,Anthony Pettis,Junior Dos Santos,Rampage Jackson,Jose Aldo,Chuck Liddell,BJ Penn,etc.... granted sometimes they get beat by stallers who take them down and lay on top or hold them against the fence.
@MrRandycouturefan i was just kidding about the duped nonsense, scratch that. I did not know Pettis was down to fight Guida, thats exciting news. I like both those guys but will root for guida. I liked when Anthony ran upthe cage and kicked benson henderson in the noggin. I like to watch fighting. i CAN KICK gUIDAS ASS IF TRAINED FOR A YEAR. I SENT HIM A LETTER CHALLENGING HIM TO A PRO FIGHT BUT HE WONT DO IT!
@Duskk8 u do realize hes one of the toughest fighters in the ufc right? he had a gash in his head and was like what am i bleeding? they called his fight off in tuf because they were worried he could get blood in his eye and mess up his eye id love to see a faggot like u do what hes done
@roddy308 Leben will never be a top 10 fighter, will never fight for the title. he is a journey man at best. i know nothing about mma? says the guy who gets fake tans,gels the shit out of his hair and wears super tight affliction shirts. keep on that bandwagon bro.
lebens chin saves him about 90% of the time in my opinion ... his stand up is really really sloppy and i dont even think he has THAT good of power... i just think when he starts goin shot for shot with sum1 that its his chin that wins it for him,, not his punches.. his chin just lasts longer then the other dudes
@MrCotter22 Chris has a lot of power! He is unorthodox, because when you think you got him on the ropes, you wake up a minute later asking, "what happenned". Lebens chins is solid, but he should inprove his standup.
@keijimuto I cant believe how many people were saying Big Nog was "past his prime" all the sudden after getting hit by a Mini Cooper, otherwise known as the punching power Cain has. On sport science it said that Cain hits with 2300 pounds of force! And b4 that fight, Nogueira basically outchinned Randy, by walking through his punches then dropping Couture a couple of times. I believe that 34 isnt past prime, and that past prime might not start till 36-37(Marcus Davis) :(
@jagdjohn96 because once someone has 'pushed the button', it's easier for the next guy to press... we've seen it time and time again. Doesn't mean a fighter won't still be excellent, it's just they're no longer 'indestructible'. Sad but true...
@theboyv Like Chuck Liddell and Andrei Arlovski. 2 of my favorite fighters, who can no longer take too many good punches before they need a pillow. Leben also went into this fight with the flu
@simmy0987 most of them spell it like this... UFC, "ya we UFCed last night." Its not just UFC its MMA, its like saying we NHLed as opposed to saying we played hockey
@jagdjohn96 and the fuckers chanting "UFC, UFC, UFC" at UFC 118. Or even worse, chanting "USA, USA" during BJ Penn Frank Edgar II, not realizing Hawaii is a state. I guess this is what you get when you have WWE-esque marketing.
@simmy0987 They chant USA, because they dont know who the fighters are, yet they come to the fight and they dont even know who they are watching. Most WWE fans are white trash, or 8 years old. You have to be that stupid to think WWE is real! IK because I had to watch it in the emergency room till me and my dad found the remote. Most ppl also think that WWE is wrestling, but its really just bad acting. stupid ppl ask if Im in WWE just because I wrestle(legit wrestling).
@jagdjohn96 excuses.... like liddell. if chuck would of been koing the guys who been koing him, then you bet dana would be all over his nuts again "chuck this chuck that"
@domandcaro There was something different about Liddell after he fought Rampage, Liddell at age 40 is past his prime, Leben at age30 is not, Big Nog at age 34 is not.
Leben needs to fucking grow up and take the fucking color out off his head. He is a pile of shit First he says Stann is not good Blah..blah..blah. Then at the conference when Stann shows he is respectful this shit head turns his thoughts around to try to sound nice and humble.
i dont know about you guys but this was soooooooo fucking hard to swallow...rumors say he was sick as shit the day of the fight, i tend to believe because he didn't look like himself at all...Leben always seems to lose to the guys i hate the most...Bisping was a rough one..hate that fucking douche
@Iwantudead its ok man, Hendo KTFOed him in such a way that he gets cracked in every fight now, kinda like Rashad after his loss to Machida. Every time you get Knocked out, it is easier to knock you out the next time.
UNFORTUNATELY LEBEN'S BEST DAYS AS A FIGHTER ARE BEHIND HIM. STANN SHOWED NOTHING OTHER THAN HE IS AN AVERAGE FIGHTER WHO BEAT A LEBEN WHO IS PAST HIS PRIME
@gmd1417 stann is undefeated and was lightweight champ for wec...leben just won his last 3 fights or something like that. Your logic is wrong man..stann will probaly blow through the middlewieght division and take on either belfort or silva...thats why he dropped to 185...easier fights than 205...By the way i fuckin hate this jock stann..so its hard for me to comment this.
i knew from the start of the fight that he was'nt the same when he fought!! yokishami i hope i spell that right lol!! i don't think he trained at all to hard for this fight with brian stann!!
He's grown up SO much from his early days in MMA. The dude just needs to stop relying on his chin and work on that technique. It's hard given his style but imagine Leben with great striking technique. He would be so much better than he is. Leben fan forever.
Leben is my nigga and always has been since TUF1. But like the guy below said he will never be an elite fighter and considered as one of the greats. But I still fuck with him no matter what cuz he's a tough fuckin guy
leban is a exciting fighter but isn't ever going to b a elite fighter simple as that,whos he ever beat whos a gr8 fighter,doubt he'l ever get a shot at the title,bisping is a dick but hes a better fighter who will probs get a title shot soon and get mauled by silva lol
No worries, he will be fine, i love watching his fights he always puts on a good show, i baught last nights fight but the damn thing was glitching the whole time , the picture wouldnt even come in so i pretty much wasted the money but that was beside the point i was getting it souly to watch leben fight, cant wait to see him in the ring again!!!
