Ramon Dekkers vs Duane Ludwig round 3

[BD76427]

actually decker fhought this one with his right arm hurted...he was only punching with his left hand all 3 rounds if you watch...he had some sort of injure (cant remember what) a few days before this fight.

decker ,an undisputed legend..respect.

[SoWhat676]

If Ramon wounldn`t have his arm injured, he could find a waaay better opponent for himself.. I`d really like to see him against John Wayne Parr, Andy Souwer, Buakaw of course :)

Besides Dekker is a great trainer also: Sammy Schilt, Alistair Overeem, they train in Golden Glory gym trained by Dekker :)

"The Diamond" will forever be the best "foreigner"

[stepmanias]

anyone else hear mike tyson at 1:59? haha

[HistoryHmoobGuy]

LUDWIG, that dirty kraut suck at K-1 and at MMA.

[bratskurzin1]

this was k1 world max 2005. why didnt he went to final 16 ? imagine him against zambidis or buakaw...

[richiemo2000]

Dekkers is up there with Dielselnoi and Hoost, as all time greats.

[richiemo2000]

@richiemo2000 Dieselnoi, i meant.

[DexterHaven49]

What an honor for Dekkers to get the opportunity to fight Ludwig. Maybe that's why he came out of retirement...

[kaonieoh]

Ramon Dekker, my favorite muay thai fighter outside of Thailand. Nobody would fuck with this guy. He would even beat half of the thai fighters in Thailand during his reign.

This guy Ludwig is happy he 's fighting Ramon in his later years, back then, KO!!

[mitsupitsu44]

@kaonieoh right on,he is not for nothing 8 times worldchampion...

[dan122222]

Lamon Dekka :D

[IrishKyokushin]

Its a shame Ramon was so broken down from fighting in Thailand [200+ fights IIRC] when K-1 MAX started. he could have been a force and possibly won the title.

[Skalarius]

ramon dekker, could only use his left arm and he was old. but he fought awesome!

[shuriken86]

didnt ludwig do amateur boxing too, and ludwig tried to trade hands??

[langhard1]

in kickboxing years the dekkers you see here is a old age pensioner ,a young dekkers would have punched that silly smile strait down his windpipe

[kanivalete]

King xD

[thepapasmurf2]

Wow, Ludwig was so lucky Ramon was only able to use his left arm.

[verborrer]

who won?

[bronzorage]

very good fight ramon decker is a one of best fighter on muay thai in history but i dont understand why he doesn t utilise a knee.

[samukumsan]

just the best warrior,do not tell stories

[maximt1000]

Оба отличные парни.

[artofpoetry]

dekkers is a monster. his strategy here kind of reminds me of rocky's strategy in the last rocky movie: you're older and you've slowed down, so you need to go for pure, precise power shots. dekkers owned.

[SatanicSilencieux]

He hesitated. If he continues that bang guy might have a brain cancer

[GhostX1200]

I take it K1 rules means no elbows?

[69gnice]

duane dude you are the shit i tell every body you use to teach me and i get laughed at hit me up bro 7574723201 its me GREG!!! Parker

[Bjoelin]

@69gnice: ?

[antjmi]

Could you imagine if Dekkers had both arms in tact, he was famous for throwing amazing combinations...he would have torn Ludwig apart in the first round I think for sure.....

[herhadz16]

he is a litle old but when he was young he went to tailand and bit everyone he is a very good fighter

[usjaksri]

good

[taipad]

i dont think hes old, he was better than the other young man , is a great fighter, no matter his years!!

[Efizzle707]

one word DIAMOND

[2ossy]

he looks so old

[Netsah31]

he is.

[TheSebaman]

he's 40 years old

[DrMabuse2006]

Strangely, years of fighting with elbows doesn't do much for your good, boyish looks.

[DrMabuse2006]

Love the replay. Ludwig comes at him with a series of punches not able to hit him even once. And then BAM!!! Knock down!!!

[DrunkDragon23]

Dekkers faught this fight with one arm, he tore ligaments in his right shoulder. And he still lmanaged to dropludwig in every rd. If he was healthy this fight would have ended in the 1rst

[MuayThaiViking]

this fight was in 2005. that makes dekkers 35-36 year old in this fight? he got the fighter of the year award in thailand back in 1993. ludwig would be a dead man against the young dekker

[DrMabuse2006]

He probably wouldn't have seen the end of round one had Ramon been able to use both his hands instead of just his left.

[Netsah31]

yeah, when he was younger he was faster and stronger. Here he's good, but....

But he won! ^^

[CCDevlin]

@MuayThaiViking true, and notice that Dekker is not using his right arm in this fight. He had a bad injury in his right arm so he only fought this guy with one arm. And he still gives him 8 counts 3 times being almost in his mid 30s. Amazing.

[adiloveall]

@MuayThaiViking absolutely

[k4n31985]

@MuayThaiViking actually the fighter of the year thing is a myth, it's not true. But he's still a legend.

[MuayThaiViking]

@k4n31985 who are you talking about? im talking about dekkers, and he won the award in 1992

if u dont believe that, then find a name who DID win it that year. and some reliable sources

according to muaythaionline(.)org, and ANY other major muaythai website/origination/portal/you name it, he did win the award. for some strange reason i believe they know more about it than you :P

[criminalmindgames]

@MuayThaiViking Agreed. 

[MrChrisgabber]

@MuayThaiViking EXACTLY!!!!!

[yobro250]

@MuayThaiViking Dekkers never won fighter of the year in Thailand...That's a myth...He did win farang of the year through.

[MuayThaiViking]

@yobro250 do you have a source or are u just talking shit. according to muaythaionline (the big website) he won that award in 1992

looking forward to your evidence, i may be wrong! (in that case, so is the biggets muaythai portal)

[SuperGuigui17]

@MuayThaiViking In 92 :p.

[rector]

Bas may have had something to do with tsetting up this match.

[vadstradamus]

rape.

[ilikeaeroplanejelly]

they both look like they're having so much fun

[Mcgreen16]

Even with only a "half Dekker" fighting (he couldn't use his right hand), he still dropped Ludwig numerous times. Amazing.

[ries5]

blijft wereldklasse die gast, DEKKERS RULES.

[enchantedpancake]

the best thing about this fihgt is raymon can't use his right hand he broke a cartlidge in it.So he beat this guy with one hand tied behind his back

[chowbelly]

Ludwig is a badass fighter, man. I've seen him lay down some serious beatings. This Dekkers must be really tough.

[bnwsting97]

Dekkers is world class 185W 20L 98KO's

[dedezeras]

u kra eh fera mesmo...

sangue nu olho

[lionheart0smcv]

Grande Ramon dekkers è fortissimo...

[taekkyeon]

Ramon Dekker  9 champion of world

the

best

[whoodkid]

dekkers one the greatest fighters in history in my book. and with all due respect to most fighters we fight dekkers when he was old would not have lasted when he was younger

[EliPTiK101]

its a shame he doesnt star in a movie

[pannenkoek28]

Very impressive fight by Dekkers, he only could use his left arm because of an injury!

[kowazoe]

j'avoue que ca change de sa jeunesse , ont dirait un mec de 50 ans avec pas mal de cholestérol qui ose encore aller sur le ring lol (manque d'argent ?)

[vietcong90]

normal, il se fait vieux, ptet un mange d'argent lol. ceci dit moi je veux bien voir desmecs de son age faire aussi mieux que lui sur le ring... Il est était le meilleur avant, il reste encore tres bon aujourdui.

[fedecama]

dekkers is so old and fat, lol

[artwarrior1983]

Maybe so... But I bet you don't have the balls to tell him that in person. :)

[fedecama]

Of course man, Ramon Rules, but I enjoy more his younger fights. That's All.

[artwarrior1983]

Well , that's only natural(the dude was ferocious back then, still is) but for someone his age to fight like that is pretty amazing in my book.

[devourerofbabies]

It's not his age per se that's the problem, it's that 200+ fights takes its toll on your body.

[DrMabuse2006]

I think it has more to do with getting back into the ring before your properly healed. Which he did. Alot.

[devourerofbabies]

Well, same thing really. In order to have 200 + fights you need to fight like twice a month for 9 or 10 years.

[devourerofbabies]

Also let's not forget he was fighting one-handed in this match.

[CTuxford]

I think Duane was proud to have fought so well against one of the greatest fighters in the history of Muay Thai. After one of the knockdowns I noticed him smile at Ramon for a job well done. Two of my favourite warriors next to Bas Rutten. I wish I had half the stamina and skills of these two great men.

[osheen18]

Raymond is a legend

[buzzurro]

who's raymond??

[ULTRATHUNDERGOD]

Nobody. Ramon though is an awesome fighter

[burningknuckle26]

Ramon is wash up. Duane sucks too.  weak ass niggaz

[osheen18]

Wow! You sound like your really good. could u show me where i can find your fights so that i may learn from you

[tuncaserkan]

ludwig is not enough strong to fight in k-1.

[xejanfan]

does anybody have the first two rounds on youtube? it seems a pretty decisive third round for dekkers. i know bang is a really good fighter, i've seen in other fight organizations, but he pretty much got schooled by a muai thai master! much respect to both fighters, i like to see good sportsmanship, it brings honor to fighters and fans alike!

[vdubwhore]

Dekkers has nothing to prove for he is a legend in muay thai and god like to others in the sport.Ludwig is good for his age ,but Dekkers was a monster and his fights were epic when he was Ludwig's age , a true diamond!

[james598]

i think youtube should disable the comments&respones section, because you guys are all gay

[cristianoserati]

Hey why you don't come here to see by youreself how much i'm gay!!!! Fuck off you shit of the beast!!

[SicSeb]

At lawyer73: Get lasersurgery and watch the fight again.

At Duane Luwdig: Go back to the kindergarden and learn how to fight

At Ramon Dekkers: You are still the man!

Damn, he looked so buff, solid block of muscle and expertise \m/

[DrMabuse2006]

Either you have a very warped idea of controlling someone or your mixing the two up. Just to be clear, Ludwig wears the blue gloves and red trunks. Ramon the red gloves and black trunks. Cause for the live of you, I don't see any controlling by Ludwig. Unless his constant walking back and getting knocked down were part of a cunning plan of his.

[Jahofnietdan]

Lmao, masterpiece of a comment.

[AlboAryanProud]

ramon is a beast,if ramon was younger when he fought COBAN than ramon would pound ludwig's ass in air.

[DrMabuse2006]

Nope. Don't see it. I see Ramon not having to realy exceed himself to defeat an inferior Ludwig. Only using his left hand. Unless you think running away and getting knocked down 3 times is control.

[DrMabuse2006]

No. I didn't notice the part where Ludwig controled Ramon. Please show it to me.

[gregleb0ss]

a true legend

[snydervaletudo]

Dekkers face is always ugly...haha. Years of fighting with elbows will do that to ya.

[gatoreneatyahoo]

dekker clearly won! he knocked ludwig down 3 times!the first knocke down he hit him with only a jab and put him on his ass!

[SwitchBladeBoozer]

I think its funny no one commented on how Ramon didnt throw one right hand thru the whole fight. He said in an interview after the fight he injured his right arm and thats why he never unloaded on Ludwig. Ludwig isnt the same anymore he drew against a guy that beat a guy he knocked out in K-1.

[HanzoGEAR]

So getting knocked on his ass twice constitutes him winning? Moron. Also, during the third round Ludwig was constantly being chased down by Ramon. That is not control. Duane is a good fighter, very good in fact, but he is no Ramon Dekkers. Thats why an over the hill out of shape Ramon beat him.

[richdelion]

shit ludwig didnt do too well in this fight, he fought an old guy and didnt even dominate dekkers. Dekkers still got it but very slow compare to his younger days.

[gatoreneatyahoo]

dekkers gon up in weight class too hes built solid though i dont see any fat on him hes fighting in higher weight class hence he seems slower but clearly hes still a world class fighter one of the best still...

[blurfist]

lokik!!

[tommylasatira]

Show respect for both fighters, just like duane did in the this fight! I think duane fought a good fight against someone who was fighting on experience. Guys like ramon, peter and ernesto fight in the ring like they are on automatic pilot.

[melchiordani]

Ramon old and retired beated Duane so easely... If Ramon was a few years younger, Duane would have ended in a wheel chair. Duane will never get to the top he is to weak.. simple as that! Greetz all

[702decatur]

You guys can't be that stupid to think Duane was in this fight. First off lets keep it simple for you non-fighters who would you rather be in the fight the guy coming forward knocking your opponent down, or the guy backing up cause you got nothing to keep him off you.

[blaatdaap]

you have absolutely no clue about kickboxing and/or K-1 in this specific situation. The only gayass person here is you. Do your research or never talk this smack about things you don't know about.

[mowglieboy1]

Do knockdowns in K-1 count as two points off or something? How the hell did Ludwig lose 30-24? Fucking ridiculous garbage. Fuck those gayass judges. He was losing t5he fight other than the knockdowns. That wasn't close to a 30-24 fight. Absolute trash.

[mowglieboy1]

Dekkers won because of the knockdowns, toherwise Ludwig was getting the better of him.

[hondaonly]

this is the first time I saw it since it happened. Ramon still looking great, but slowed down a bit. Bang looked like he was reluctant to throw anything most of the time except after his first knockdown. He never really put combos together to get Ramons respect.

[Basjija]

Great Fight .

[blaatdaap]

-75 KG. He could not make the -70KG weight anymore. No sense in fantasizing about matching him up with Buakaw though, since he retired last may after fighting Joerie Mes.

[Sexums]

He actually retired in 2001, but he keeps coming back LOL

[phantomboi]

When you've been fighting as long as he has its hard to stray away from that kind of life. I know how he feels...

[martialartsjamaica]

dekker is a legend. what weight class is this? wanna know if he could face buakaw?

[misterzeerow]

if he was a couple years younger this would have ended in the first round ^^

[Sexums]

Agreed.

[Sexums]

Great fight. Ramon owned : )
