[jefffinley11]

This video is a favorite on Tajikistan

[Kariakas]

Two greats going at it, this is what K1 is all about.

[IZG]

Banner is stronger but Hoost is a very smart fighter!

[guibarta]

i don't understand..how can the main comments of this video talk about lebanner and his greatness.c'mon guys here you can see what do you get from fighting shellshocked..willing to ko with every punch..you get tired..plus all that muscles are ane useless extraweight..the true champion here is ernesto who blocked all that heavy shots and kept waiting until jerome is too tired..brain vs muscle at its best....

[2431346]

Hoost was 50 LBS SMALLER!!!

[hiephoi058]

@ 2:09 ! hoost!!!

[hiephoi058]

hoost is a cyborg!

[zigovat]

he is too fucking fast

[Szederp]

A replay would have been welcome....

[nflizsoft6]

that was ridiculous he was knocked out twice in that competition but he still got to win it

[ruckusruckus666]

@nflizsoft6 your thinking of 2002 this was there fight from 1999

[nflizsoft6]

@ruckusruckus666 oh but still that event was ridiculous for him to win

[maffiadaan]

Nice men holland power mutherfucker ernesto hoost just wait until the fat gut get tired and almost knockt him out ;)

[RegistrationCop]

@maffiadaan Fat gut?!? What the fuck are you talking about man? LeBanner was in really good shape!

[MightyMitch1980]

hahahah 5 hoeken genoeg le banner???

[artaxerxe1]

le banner n'est pas le meilleur ici, en fait il est jamais le meilleur vis-a-vis de hoost , "mr. perfect"

[philchable]

Sorry man, you're damn right, it's almost a sin forgetting Marcel Cerdan, he deserves all my respect too

[19grand]

HOOST HOOST HOOST

[MegaVin100]

20 kg en moins et il le pete! damnn

[zephirossedu13]

Le meilleur ne gagne pas toujours? Ernesto hoost était un tres grand champion...c'est deja bien si le banner a tenu jusque la et a meme dominer ernesto au premier round mais Ernesto hoost était vraiment tres fort dans ces années la

[Pefounet76]

@zephirossedu13

Je les considère aussi bon l'un que l'autre chacun ayant ses qualités. Mais bon sur ce combat je trouve ca moche... Tout un round il tente rien et laisse lebanner s'épuiser. C'est moche parfois le sport.

[nusux]

what a real sportsman he could of faked a knockdown after the 1st punch cuz he knew he was hurt and just get a mandatory 8 but he stood on his feeet and fought against the odds, respectable !

[robertito836]

im not saying i can take those punch but he does not have a strong jaw.he was pounding away at ernesto and he was doing well afterwards.

[atons14]

Bouffe ça!!

[renanvcb]

Le Banner was one of the greatest K1 fighters! Power and technique together...

[vardalos1980]

Great performance by JLB, but at 3:23 made his mistake. A top fighter like Hoost didnt want anything more...............

[Blahb27]

@vardalos1980 Naah, if you look at the first round, Hoost was looking to place exactly that punch. He knew the opening was there, it was bound to end up like this sooner or later. Otherwise it would just have taken a little more leg destruction to take away mobility before it happened.

[MultiLegrand]

bien fait pour lebanner , ce pretentieux qui se croit invincible

[akaNadik]

man that last combination was savage, and bam he gets hit on snooze button

[2431346]

omg hoost was a fucking monster.

[sakisvra]

xaxaxaxa le banner !!! i like that he look....

[AttackTheGasStation1]

The Hoost's on-guard position is impressive.

[HaloedG]

Beautiful!

[HaloedG]

That's Bas Rutten commentating! Remember he's Dutch! I know the accent and his enunciation...

[2DollarPistols]

@HaloedG

It's not Bas Rutten. I think it's former karateka/kickboxer Fred Royers, who now commentates on (kick)boxing on Eurosport. He's dutch, so you got the language right.

[Sternmayer666]

Unbeliveble

[orthodoxdragon1]

cikatic fucked that black pice of shit two time stone cold .........

[NINJAMOUSE21]

that was not luck. that was strategy . hoost is a gr8 fighter also. But he couldnt exchange blows with Le Baner cause Le Baner is heavier, stronger and a verry smart opponent. So hoost stay closed and he was looking an opening in the guard.

[Warbeast31]

Je dirais plutôt que le plus fort physiquement ne gagne pas toujours. ici, il s'est pris 5 ou 6 shouts sans pouvoir les parer quand le black s'énerve...LeBanner ou pas, quand le cerveau tremble, tu tombe ;)

[ekajnin]

lucky cunt lol

[LegendaryDamon]

fcking ucky bastard hoost that other guy was winning by far, been watching hoost fights and they are almost all lucky damn him

[Swaqper]

@LegendaryDamon

You dont know shit , you wanna say he won k1 4 times by luck?

[SwamiBastard]

@LegendaryDamon lucky? lol u know nuthin about K1 ...

[sheemsheem]

4 time world champion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[SOUTHSIDESLIDERZZ]

WOAHHHHHHHHHHA MEAN FIGHT 

[Platinummxi]

Le Banner started well, but then got caught out and SMASHED!!!! Reminds me somewhat of the Mike Weaver vs Gerrie Coetzee WBA Heavyweight fight 1980, in South Africa. prime Hoost vs prime Weaver?? Lol.

[alexaadap]

i like watching hoost. He's overmatched physically with these juiced up fighters, but he wins through shear skill

[1BFW]

To say he is over rated by any means is rediculous. Ernesto Hoost was one of the best and watch his highlights in my opinion definetly not boring. If you have real love for the sport @AttackTheGasStation1 watching his technique on display is incredibly entertaining.

[3cocodrilo]

this stupid lebanner still down in hoost 's game what a lol

or he was paid

[frankfritter35]

hehehe another Hoost victim. "Bring him in the game, let him hope for a while, then blow him away" --MCP

[butchsteine]

Хуст, вполне заслуженно. ле Баннеру нужно было больше работать по корпусу.

[AttackTheGasStation1]

gizmofsu --> LeBanner was better against Hoost. That's a fact.

[Swaqper]

@AttackTheGasStation1

He was just more aggresive , not better as you can see on the vid.

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Hoost is completely overrated. He has huge technik, but he's completely boring to watch fighting. K1 is a show....

Le Banner was the best, no doubt.

[gizmofsu]

@AttackTheGasStation1 Another exceedingly ignorant comment on Youtube. God Bless downward progress!

[Timurchin1]

@AttackTheGasStation1 100 %

[moluksefreefighter01]

@AttackTheGasStation1 hahahahahahahahaha what a bunch of crap!

[CTUKeyes]

@AttackTheGasStation1 I think he is a bit overrated too but def one of the best and not boring to watch by any means. and Le Banner was definitely elite but not even near the best.

[HaloedG]

@AttackTheGasStation1

Too bad he got KO'd by an overrated fighter...u mad?

[AttackTheGasStation1]

@HaloedG Completely. Well played Ernesto.

I don't forget that Le Banner has destroyed Hoost so many times before this one...Just have a look on Le Banner's Highlights and you'll see often Hoost lying down.

[HaloedG]

@AttackTheGasStation1

Okay, so LeBanner beat him twice...but in their last fight against one another, Hoost won...that's what counts.

[AttackTheGasStation1]

@HaloedG Sure. As you can see, I'm not a big fan of Hoost. But he's a skilled and intelligent fighter.

Geronimo !!

[Swaqper]

@AttackTheGasStation1

Before this fight le banner only won 1 time and hoost too.

[eltulkas]

@AttackTheGasStation1 i think they are 2-2

[Swaqper]

@AttackTheGasStation1

Dude you dont know hoost , watch his highlight vids.

[jego38]

my two all time favs....great champions...

[manolako]

jajaj hoost dancing ti ti ti ti riririririri yeeeeei i ve won le banner

[6u6a6u]

Nice

[nqkoisii]

holy shit !

[smeigelsmidt]

Holland is the best!!!! We rule the K1!!!!

[pouchichi]

Hoost is so vicious and overrated.

[nastajaja]

pouz zakarya! le meilleur cetait  Hoost, il suffit de voir son palmares

[eroldu62]

Cette période était vraiment celle ou le banner était en forme ^^

[rupselkopke]

wow

[zakaryapaname]

Le meilleur ne gagne pas toujours !

Le Banner en force !

[louibmx11]

at 3:24, low kick without guardin was enough for hoost

[aerox12345678910]

Left right left right, down :)

Respect to both!

[31100evidament]

aficiomp2000et 13015 vous vous prenez pour qui a parler comme sa, en face de vous y vous mange !

Respect Lebanner

[philchable]

Lebanner is (or was) a great fighter, probably the best France ever had, I've a huge respect for that tough fighter

[jego38]

@philchable indeed im pretty sure he is one of the most respected...he just lost here against the best..the almost unbeatable ernesto.but lebanner is one of my all time favs,,,,,,no doubt,....

[CyrrusNL]

@jego38 Lebanner missed that last little bit. His capacity to take punches is probably his only weakness, but he was a great guy to see in the ring, and perhaps the greatest champion that never was in K1.

Hoost was just unstoppable as soon as he was allowed to make his combinations. One good hit on Lebanner and the combination work takes over and the fight is over.

[dfdgfdgf0000]

@philchable marcel cerdan

[Rimpelhond]

The King from Hoorn,he is the best!!!!!

[aficiomp2000]

Come godo francesi di merda siete mosci come la vostra "R"Le banner Go Home

[savonbra]

mister perfect

[13015bastos]

AttackTheGasStation1

oué i puuuuuuuuuuue la chatte le banner et sa cariere trafiqué patrice quarteron c le bon est ofaite marseille t emmerde toi et le banner

[jajaOwns]

Fuck le banner

[AttackTheGasStation1]

jajaOwns --> fucking brasilian transexual, instead of writting that in youtube, why don't you go say that in the front of Le Banner ??? Poor cunt.

[jajaOwns]

fuck u too asshole! Le banner cock sucker

[dominicwalli]

nice fight between them,those 2 were the bomb before overated badri and the "new generation" came.ernesto hanged his gloves on the wall,but jerome keeps fightingXD GERONIMOOOOO

[13015bastos]

le banner i puuue la chatte

[AttackTheGasStation1]

13015bastos --> j'adore les commentaires des mômes de 15 ans.

"le banner i puuue la chatte" --> et toi, tu pues quoi, derrière ton petit écran et ton anonymat pathétique ? Pauvre merde.

13015 --> c'est pas marseille, ça, la poubelle de la France, la ville au QIle plus faible de l'Hexagone ? Allez, va faire tes coloriages...

[azuth20]

thats exactly how you beat a big beefy guy, if you got defense like that, let him gas out . . .

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Hoost is completely overrated and lucky.

[jan1035]

@AttackTheGasStation1 ; that's why he won the K1 3 times. Moron

[AttackTheGasStation1]

jan1035 --> it was my feeling about the fight against Le Banner, not for his entire career. Moron

[2pacowtlos]

Man that was the luckiest punch ever hahah, big comeback..

[azuth20]

@2pacowtlos its called a counter

[aquaphone]

Luck had nothing to do with it. He was waiting for LeBanner to throw a low kick and then countered with a right cross. If you had aver trained, you would know that.

[2pacowtlos]

@aquaphone

OK trained boy!!!

[Pawol1906]

kurwa jak Banner mógł się dać takiej czarner cipie

[creationofsociety]

what a genius , what a great strategy , that was the last le banner expected from hoost , it shows how great of a fighter hoost is !

[scholz66]

lebanner is a machine simply just forward but ernesto just got pefect timing.

I love the knockouts of him just left right....perfect muay thai fighter!

[dafunker00]

NOoooooooOOOOOOOOooooooo

[nadhim69]

a un moment le commentateur il a sortit geronimo lebanner lol

[Kedbuka]

I've always thought LeBanner was one of the scariest K1 fighters--actually any sort of fighter--ever. The dude was strong, mean, fearless, and could punch like a mofo. He was a bad dude, no question. Hoost had to be really good to beat him...crushed him, really, with a vicious series of punches.

[G0N0RRE0]

twice

[balamanti2]

Earnesto Rule, that was so pleasing le banner deserve to be knocked out in such a killing way

[pouchichi]

@balamanti2

You are a shitty racist

[balamanti2]

@pouchichi

yes that is natural because I m white,

[IamAlwaysRight]

Lebanner was one of the best in his prime, he coulda easilly one at least one K-1 GP with a little luck.

[Bizzclub]

Jerome Le Banner is a punching bag. He's is a joke.

[dafunker00]

Dude. are you f*cking serious????? lebanner is a joke?

naww YOU are the joke. one stupid motherfucker

[Bizzclub]

Special for 4 you again. LeBanner is a joke. LeBanner wil never win from

fighters like Bonjasky, Schilt, Hari, Aarts, Zimmerman and Overeem. So mother-fucker, if you wanna talk about K1 you got to know the sport.

[dafunker00]

Just because he isnt THE greatest doesnt mean he isnt one of the greatest. which as everbody knows, he is.

losing to 3 time world champ does not equal -joke-

[TapoutORPassout12345]

oh... and this was a rad fight. i didnt expect it to end like that, though hoost is definitely a very dangerous man.

[TapoutORPassout12345]

it's EL GUAPO!

[EHNZROCKSLUTS]

jerome is a fuking boxer. dude should of made a career out of that.

[afsarturk]

Boxing is always %90 of the fight, what ever the rules are...

and jerome le banner and no k1 fither ware never good enough to make carrer on WBC like tournemets.....

[EHNZROCKSLUTS]

how are you sure of this? i think le banner would of done some damage as a youngster if he was in boxing.. .

[afsarturk]

who is he going to fight with when he was young? mike tyson? hahahaha he would die in round1, all k1 fighters would die in round1 against mike's prime.

[YourFuture2012]

french and german i can imagine. but japanese lol.

[bambamlycz]

Do you ever watch K1?! Dutch rule this show boy, they always did and will do! Neukende vrede uit Nederland!

[arcosnake]

it's Dutch....

[ghostphantom563]

What language is the sportscaster speaking? It sounds a little like Japanese, French, and German in one. Since there's no clear accent, at least not to me.

[tiesthijsthejs]

same as Hoost

[R0bert2169]

I can understand that to someone that doesn't speak the language Dutch might sound like German. But comparing it to French and even Japanese is beyond me.

[bambamlycz]

Fucking Dutch! Like we rule this tournament for decades;)

[Iknowbetterthanthat]

hahaha dutch offcourse

[Moisejo90]

BELLO!

[A6Wagonrippin]

not many kick boxers has power like le banner guys a beast

[fabiolhpoi]

hoost the best!

[RICHARD3161]

hey 72thanasis, it's your fat mom who suck every frenck dick...

[fingerscarr]

@RICHARD3161 . another guttersnipe !

[72thanasis]

fuck lebaner , he take was deserve the mother fucker asshole!!

[fingerscarr]

@72thanasis .. you sound like a well educated fool . where did you graduate from ? the gutter ! ! !

[FilipeCzech1986]

in this fight le banner showed very nice skills and power! wow! NICE FIGHT!!!

[SebVill23]

suck my dick le banner jaja

[RICHARD3161]

shut up bitch, its your fat mom who suck his dick

[manolako]

ernesto hoost at the final hahahaha titiriririritititititi

[steve0281]

It was his fight to lose and he lost it. Pity.

[indieKook]

- still can not believe that hoost knocked that le banner beast out ! =D

[schubaka01]

Le Banner needed about 16/17 punches to fall, what a beast !

[wenzealand]

or 1 from sefo

[headbusta25]

lol everytime i see banner get KNFO, he reallys falls hard. o.O

[Miousic2000]

2 great fighter !!!!!

le banner win for 2009 K1 GP !!!!!

[Pefounet76]

I dont think with this fukin shilt....

[Kovy192036]

Jerome is the best fighter ever!!!

[DARKBIBIN1]

JLB na pa gagné se cb mé ken on voi se kil a mi a ernesto pr k-1 2008 on se dit kil rest le best... ;)

[projetsmith]

Le best ? Lol

[bigshaunj]

im a huge fan of jerome but hoost rightfully won but i wouldnt say hes a better fighter if you get beating by some 1 you learn why you got beating if your a clever enough fighter and usually the style they used the first time doesnt work a second time jerome is the best stand up fighter that has ever stepped into a ring if youv never been beat your opponents cant have been that good

[TheMre1983]

Please do not look at the outcome, but look at the way the fighting .. and the progress of the French survivor fighter ......... I considered the number one fighter, despite loss

[morgan60210]

hey ué lolote mai bon dominé n'est pas gagné comme on dit ... c un dieu JLB t'façon

[usgalsen]

I never thought Hoost would come out of this fight. He was overpowered yet he's found the resources to lock the deal! INCREDIBLE!!

[RegistrationCop]

if you watch carefully, Hoost timed that straight right perfectly; and not to mention it hit Le Banner square on the chin right where it counts. after he saw Le Banner stumble he went for the kill.

[mrZoranZ]

had that myself once.. couldnt hit this 112kg guy a single time. second round was over in a few seconds with 3 punches.

[Pefounet76]

122 KG :)

[LoverToxic]

me too, i didnt think that he come out of this fight too. woww nice job

[lolotte6211]

dommage pour le banner , il avait fait un bien meilleur round que hoost mais sa c est joué sur un coup . il aurait mieux fait de se laissé tombé pour récupéré .

[karlos81]

Hoost was the greatest K-1 fighter ever, fought on a little too long but his resume will never be doubted. His demolition of Cro-Cop is a personal fav.

[malevcc]

WOW - The Battle of the Titans!!

[alban160593]

lol the presentator says jeronimo le banner LOL

[800dozer]

Jerome got gassed and slowed down , Ernesto was still fresh and closed the deal .

[gurache]

so sad for us, the french people...

he has never won....incredible...

congratulation Ernesto Hoost.

[F6CSW58]

Yeah.He don't get a K-1'top.

But,Jerome is KING for me.

[proUterForum]

WTF, Gerome?That was a shameful KO

[darcangelo89]

Poor Jerome he never wins in the final he always the runner up

[asuna1]

Very technical fight, really impressiv skills! They are both equivalent level, but Hoost become a tiger in second round!

I don't want to meet on of them late in a dark street!

[RepentKingdom]

God dammit dutch is such an awful language to hear T_T ( I don't mean to insult anyone/ dutch guys ),but its so full of dissonant sonds its like "KrRR BrRr rRR" all the time :XX

Good fight ./

[cornuit]

Ik zou je bakkes moeten dicht lijmen met het sperma van Banner RapedKingdom
