  • Stupid haters! I was diagnosed with congenital amputation also, I was born without a right hand or fore arm.

  • An absolutely amazing MAN - your an insipration to us Kyle - thank you for being you xx

  • hes a cool motherfucker!

  • this is great that guy with the chainsaw bull shit better watch out because you could definetly kick his ass

  • wow, i bet if he actually took some1 down, the he wud smash them with those bulbasaur legs :-/

  • awesome you are a great person men :)

  • Put him against Gray Maynard for the battle of the Maynards!

  • Mad respect!

  • hey kyle, losers in the internet world talk trash and say shit just to make them feel better about themselves. you are a great inspiration for anyone that no matter what obstacles one has in life, they should not get in your way. a lot of people make excuses in life when compared to you, their problems mean nothing. to those assholes making negative comments about you as an attention whore, they have nothing better to do. i feel sorry for people like that.

  • your amazing dude ...anyone that says anything negative on this MAN should stop being jealouse and get off your couch and make something of yourself ..im ashamed that im such a lazy person after watching his videos.

  • Thats the heart of a real fighter! unlike the wanna be fighter here who try'na discourage this man! shutout to all keyboard fighters ehehhe GET A FCKIN' LIFE!

  • This would be awsome if he had a jet pack while fighting!!!

  • FUCK WHAT THEY SAY MAYNARD!! I have friends in the NFL, NBA, I know elite CrossFitters, SEALs, Special Forces, etc. and NONE of them compare to you. You are a beast. You have gone against the grain and have done the things that society said people who are "disabled" can't do. You have proven that "disabilities" are not always the end of your dreams. You are the man. Keep it up!!

  • for all of you making jokes like, "he has sick leg kicks" and "he has a sick triangle" go fuck yourselves. this guy is amazing.

  • keep your pimp stub strong...

  • he is the coolest guy! i would love to meet him! people should really follow in his footsteps!

  • Maybe he would stand a better chance if the octagon wasn't so big because he is just not fast enough to catch up to somebody to grapple them.

  • This guy is an attention whore. Stop being fags talking about how brave this guy is.

  • @ak34809723 u need some attion dont u?

  • @mrslimshady81 You don;t think it's completely ridiculous that some one with no arms or legs is all over t.v and the internet trying to be a mixed martial arts fighter? And people are talking about how much courage he has and how it's so inspirational. I respect that he wrestled because he can somewhat do that but this is sad, Have you watch his "fight"? all he did was crawl around.

  • @ak34809723 u know wut i think ? i think if u didnt have arms or legs u wouldnt have the balls to step into a ring

  • @mrslimshady81 Yes i would. Probablyy wouldn't go out of my way to do that because I would be realistic. If you want to see something inspirational watch the jmac story. . . he actually did something.

  • @ak34809723 The fact that he has a disability doesn't mean that he is not going to be able to do a good job. He's not the first person with disabilities that has done the imaginable: Helen Keller was one and I can go on and on.

  • @kelyoph Helen keller wasn't in a ring fighter able bodied trained fighters. This is just ridiculous accept that stop trying to make everything into a inspirational disney movie.

  • Watch some of his wrestling videos, he actually houses people.

  • this guys fucking awsome, even if he can never translate over to MMA, what hes accomplishde with his wrestling and grappling is amazing huge respect!

  • he could never win a mma match, he only has one style. its mma u need to be able to do more the Wrestling

  • Id like to see him in WWE Hornswaggle would fuck him up. i would have punted that mutant into the hot dog stand, or giv e him a wedgie till he cries and taps out

  • @youngplayag WWE.  hahahaahahahahaahahhhaahahahah­ahaha

  • so Im guessing no head kicks when u fight him cause his knee is always on the ground? *giggity*

  • it would be more interesting if two amputees  mma fighters fought. i've seen his first first all he did was circle around the guy for the whole match and all i was thinking is if this was me i would ground pounding his or OK the dude

  • This guy would be awesome if he had some robot arms and legs.

  • im sick of asshole being dicks about this guy read his book it really good also stop think your badasses your a unch of fat nobody never gonna be anybody still living with mom and dad at 35 pussies

  • @bob2012isfake i agreee no ones perfecttttttttttt thats life for yaaaaaaaaaa  fuck the haterzzzzzzzzz there dad should have warn a rubber

  • What a guy truely amazing, definately keep it up if it makes you happy.

  • patrick star!?

  • FLYING ARMBAR

  • Was he just called a Attention Whore hahahahah

  • lucky he didn't sign up to the old UFC Pride comp

  • heres the thing, i saw his fight before i saw this vid, and didnt understand the point or motive behind it, i mean disadvantage is an understatement, but after hearing "if this helps one other person, than im happy" i think its coo what he doin.

  • he is a beast his book is amazing and i love the no excuses life style

  • This guy is a stud, doing what he was doing with the olympic rings is really hard, I bet he can probably bench about 300.

  • Tear it up man! Anybody that says crap about you is just jealous of you! You seem very intelligent and amazing- best of luck!

  • he must have a hard time wiping his ass , but what i wanna know is how does he pick his nose??

  • @EVERYTHINGVISIBLE

    Easy, he uses your mom's tongue (for both)

    When she dies, you will take over the "family business".

  • he should fight lesnar

  • he is 2 foot tall.  lol

  • putting his disability aside, he seems like a dick, really.

  • @K0K4NE How exactly is that?

    You seem like a moron, really.

  • The guy is hugely strong and in wrestling has some ery good advantages. But in MMA, unless he can get his opponent to the ground, he doesn't stand any chance of winning.

  • i bet hed completely cain anyone in his weight cat at wressleing so if he can get them down i say hes got a good chance.

  • youre a beast man, ignore these assholes

  • Oh another thing, I bet his amputated arms are sharp as hell, and could do some damage (almost like a knife)

  • how about you go and fuck your self?

  • Honestly, he has a HUGE weight advantage (he will be stronger than a guy with limbs of equal weight) But this really only helps him in the wrestling aspect. It seems like it would be easy to just keep on your feet and beat on him.

  • Anyone who wrote some of those hateful things earlier on this page, you have much bigger inner obstacles stoping you from ever being happy in life than this man has physical obstacles in the ring. You need a reality check.

  • I realize this is the internet, and people go overboard. But what has been said on this page is beyond morally wrong,This guy is tryin to do what makes him happy, and some of you are making fun of his condition! If he has the heart to go in the ring and do what almost all of us wouldn't dare do with all of our limbs, he deserves nothing but respect.

  • im not one to say a person cant do something....but this is fucked.

  • Did he seriously say his strength is his strong point. What the fuck? This is ridiculous. Why not have a video of a woman donating sperm, or a video of a grizzly bear doing taxes? All you'd have to do to beat this guy is pick him up and throw him, and he'd probably go 50 feet or more. How can anyone take him seriously. In his fight the other guy didn't even try to do anything. In reality the fight would have been over in seconds. And to all you idiots who say he could kick someones ass, really?

  • He went 3 rounds, he lost the fight but he still took it the distance. The guy is just all core strength and its so hard to wrestle him. I'd like to see you pick him up, he'd probably KO you with GnP in the process. He took a ton of punches to the face but he's made of iron. You should stick with the keyboard warrior thing you fuckin loser.

  • @IvanDrago187 he lasted 3 rounds because his opponent was generous.

  • @surenopimp Actually no, his opponent was a fucking douche who kept distance so he couldn't do anything. If his opponent got close he probably would have taken a huge beating.

  • @IvanDrago187 Guys like you are phatetic

  • @IvanDrago187 his opponent went easy on him. he is a tough guy but he doesn't belong in mma. it isn't safe.

  • @IvanDrago187 dude hahahahaa.... I realise this is from 9 months ago but you are a fkn MORON if you don't think the guy he was fighting was payed to not just hold him down and beat the snot out of him. a fat kid on a nerd rage could beat this guy up.. he has zero offense and zero defense.. you just lay on him and the fight is over. I'm not even trying to be mean, that's just FACT.. you're a fkn idiot if you think otherwise.

  • @IvanDrago187 your so dumb

  • @IvanDrago187 i like it when keyboard warriors got owned im sick of them.. please more ppl like you ehheh

  • @IvanDrago187 you are trolling right? Becuase what fight did you see him do? the one where the other guy just walked back to avoid him

  • He could probably kick your ass punk! Why don't you get in there and take him on and see what happens instead of talking crap about him!

  • your an idol to alot of people

    well done man

    respect

  • guys got a ton of heart.. good for you!!!

  • Lemmie preface this by disclosing that I have a disability too. I'm paralyzed from the waist down. Having said that, this guy is out of his mind. He needs to come to terms with the limitations of his disability instead of trying to pretend that he is just as capable as any able-bodied fighter. I am the first one to say that no one should let a disability keep them from engaging in sports. I snowski, skydive (solo, NOT tandem) and play basketball. He needs to find a different sport.

  • As an alternatively abled person I would think you could understand this is about him doing what he wants to do. Nothing else.

    Would you take that from kyle?

    Anyways, keep talking shit because its always kept me going.

  • did your condition happen because of your own actions?

  • This guy is an incredible human being. I look up to this guy. I watch his video or read quotes from his book whenever I feel down. Don't let the look fool you. You look at Fedor and does he look cut like Kevin Randleman? No. But how does he fight? Don't ever let the look fool you. Kyle Maynard is legit!

  • Don't talk about Fedor in the same sentence with this guy. This guy is a joke. I have ZERO MMA training and I could punt this fuck through the uprights. Am I glad that he is perservering through his handicap, Yes. Would he stand a chance in hell against a normal fighter, NO. He would do well against Junior MMA kids! Get a real job, go type 50 wpm and make $8.00 an hour. Oh by the way, what weight class is he going to fight in? lol, get outta here.

  • hes fuckin nice ;D

  • he does have an advantage try arm barring him!

  • Who needs to do an arm bar when you could just pick him up and toss his ass right out of the octagon? Seriously, this guy is out of his mind.

  • honestly what he is doing is fucked up. how does someone feel having to fight someone that has no arms and legs? like thats fucked up. seriously give up. you cant even hit someone. ur lucky kids dont knock u out...

  • bet he could kick your ass...

  • how can he honestly believe that his strength and his disablities balance out?

    GIVE IT UP

  • You just don't get it!

  • even a 10 year old could beat him

  • Really? I doubt you can. Get in there and fight him then hot shot!

  • Kyle Maynard wins by GogoPlata...

  • monster ground and pound is this for real

  • Everyone should go out and buy his book "No Excuses". It's incredible

  • wheathe this man winns or looses he has some gutts and nobody can take that from him..

  • i am sorry but it would be SO awkward and uncomfortable wrestling him...

  • LAAAAME

  • shouldnt they just try and get enough amputees for a league

    its kind of wrong to put him with fully grow people and let him fight them

  • you should read his book. No excuses. He would never want to "level" the playing field like that. He refuses to see himself as inferior to anyone. He's unbelievable.

  • but he is inferior.

    hes got no legs

    just because he doesnt see himself as it

    doesnt mean the person he is fighting and most people dont

  • a real winner, no matter the results

  • You go guy!! You should totally pursue your dreams..

    Everybody that talks smack.. look at yourself and see what you've done with your life.. and you have a complete body..

    I bet you haven't gone as far as him..

    You're awesome dude!

  • isso e serio ou eh d algum programa de humor?

  • how is he going to deal with the whole kicking and punching part of MMA?

  • really incredible guy. if all you assholes on here had half the balls he has, you wouldn't be posting douche bag comments on here. fuck off to you all.

  • "My superior strength and my disabilities balance out in mma"

    haha ya sure

  • i do mma and i can say he have moves. he can even beat the crap out you "mr. loudmouth-tough guy behind the keyboard"...

  • attention whore..

  • This guy's a monster! I mean that in a good way.

  • dont listen to anyone doubting u keep doin wat u are doing with that heart u can beat anyone u want ur a winner at heart and thatz all that matters

  • shut up

  • you shut ur fuckin mouth i feel bad for the guy and im supporting him so u shut the fuck up u fat piece of shit

  • keep on keepin on dude

  • based on effort and courage alone this guy has already won

  • hey 6hourstiffy i should fight you and kick your ass

  • wow what a tuff guy.

  • i have every limb but he will knock the shit out of my ass easily. what a guy.

  • Why don't you just fight a standup game dude?

  • Comment removed

  • I'm not saying I have more balls than him, I'm saying he basically NEEDS to take it to the ground, and I'm not sure he's capable of doing that.

  • 1/2 size body...Full size MAN!

  • you are the man.

  • This guy is beyond awesome.

  • you are a LEGEND

  • this guys work ethic and effort is incredible he is quite an inspiration. however I don't think he should be fighting in MMA. I saw the fight it does not seem like he should be fighting in MMA against abled bodies fighters. He is good for someone with a disability, when he should be good for a fighter to continue fighting in MMA. As someone posted earlier would love to see him stay in wrestling or BJJ where he would be able to utilize his best features and not be so disadvantaged.

  • OMG. What a fuckin hero

  • Damn. This guy, wow.

  • What an absolute man. Also, to hell with anyone who tries to tear him down, you're all just jealous because you'll never love anything the way he loves fighting and you could never push yourself as hard as he does.

  • idiot

  • you are a true hero whoever says anything bad about you is officialy a jerk and you could own him

  • you are amazing

  • This is touching. Brought a tear to my eye!

  • he should try luge i mean cmon!

  • How does he tap out of a submission?!?! Can he do submissions?!?!

  • he's cute

  • He has a true appreciation for the art of fighting.

  • This is very inspiring to any MMA fighter out there, thx kyle, you did a great job, goodluck in the future mate

  • hey Kyle..

    i hope you see the bigger picture man because you are the biggest insperation thats ever graced mankind..weak ass people always got some negetive nonsense to say((online)).but you are truely a reprsentation on STREGNTH...thank you

  • dude he will rock the shit out of you, have you seen him wrestle?

  • He can't grab! He can't punch! He can't kick! I would have to worry about wrestling. He has no guard! How could he mount? If he did mount, what could he do? He doesnt have elbows! I would literally kill him.

  • I'd guess he uses the sidemont a lot.

  • yes

  • this guy is an inspiration to the game

  • If there was a second guy like him out there it might work but he can't seriously fight anyone who has fists...

  • i sence a dropkicking in your future  lmao

  • Amazing!!

    I don't give a f**k if he should or shouldn't fight this guy is great and a true inspiration. So give the man some respect you c**ts.

  • a figther in all sense.

    a true figther.

  • And to add to that for all we know even if the guy had arms and legs he could still be a shitty fighter. The guy said it himself he uses forks and knives, types normally. ok, there you go, he does normal things on a daily basis and good for him. The guy doens't need or want any sympathy so when people say he shouldn't be fighting, they're right! No need to bash on people for saying that.

  • I can't believe some of the people leaving comments like "POOR GUY, GOOD FOR HIM THAT HE'S DOING THIS!". This guy is mocking MMA, imagine how he makes his oppenents feel when they find out they got matched up with a guy with no arms and legs. If you beat him nothing impressive the guy doesn't have arms and legs, if you lose then you lost to a guy with no arms and legs. MMA has come a long way turning into a legit sport. I have respect for the guy but it's a set back for MMA.

  • if you watched the fight he had, you saw that he is a joke. He may be good at life for a born amputee, for that congrats, but you cant fight worth shit.

  • Comment removed

  • whos ass did he kick? he flopped around like a fish out of water. my 4 year old had a better chance then him. i cant believe we are having this argument. HE HAS NO ARMS OR LEGS!!! HE CANT PUNCK OR KICK!!! these are essentials for mma!!! it has nothing to do with courage. did he actually think any fighter in their right mind was actually going to beat him up and really fight? its just reality. anybody who thinks this was a good idea must be mentally handicap.

  • He is a MMA fighter and ur not. Ur just some bum that flips burgers or bag groceries for a living

  • Fuck people that lay nasty comments, you could beat their ass. I think it is something different but NOT weired. I think he should keep going to show the world that people with not arms or legs can still woop some asss..... Good luck! Hope for the best!

  • He's lucky they don't allow foot stomps anymore....that'd be brutal!!!

  • You gotta do whatever that makes your cookie crumble but this is just plain ridiculous, what's next?

    A 95 years old grandma in a wheelchair?

  • maybe if she had an electric wheelchair and a chain saw.

  • Brave, but just nuts. He shouldn't be an MMA fighter but if he wants to do something physical do something that is not combative - like bowling. Poor saps that have to fight him - they can't win.

  • SWEET KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

  • look this is for the assholes who talk trash first of all he cant help what he has he rather go and engoy life instead of sitting at home crying because of who he is like most of you would of done if you were in his position he is very brave, you all should be respecting him and giving him support instead of bashing him, at least he's doing something with his life instead of sitting in front of a keyboard on youtube looking up other people's live's and talking shit cuz you dont got a life.

  • this isnt about the fact that hes trying to accomplish something instead of sitting home and crying or about being brave. this is about a guy who has made a bad decision and making a fool out of himself. everybody not just him has to set goals for themselves that will achieve success. when a 2ft tall man with no arms and no legs decides to partake in a sport that requires you to kick and punch and are unable to do so, well thats just stupid. the blind cant see,deaf cant hear,and he cant mma.

  • last Time I check This is a country of freedom of rights, If He loves MMA shit who cares doit fuck what people think.

    like I said before he cant help what he has he's been doing this wrestling and training for MMA for a while now why should he quit because of assholes like you say other wise. Yea I know you'll be one of those in the audience insulting him from a distance and boing him, if he wants MMA No Harm Done.

  • great guy give him a hand

  • loool.... I get it. Huge pun intended huh? Lmao, your an asshole for that one... lol

  • wow alot of u guys put fuked comments.....he likes wat he does, that is wat matters. dont u guys get it??

  • how does he type 50wpm

  • Where there's a Will, there's a way..

    He got passion...Keep moVing Man.

  • He cannot throw a punch, he cannot pin a single able-bodied fighter without said fighter laying down on the mat and LETTING himself get pinned.

    I find this little more than a publicity stunt, as it is doomed to fail any other way.

  • Good on yer pal.

  • if he had all of his limbs he would be an amazing fighter

  • He's looking to get his ass kicked.

    More power to him, he chose the right sport.

  • This is stupid! whats his next goal? the NBA? i applaud him for his work ethic but hes setting unrealistic goals and accomplishments and setting himself up for definate failure. he is making a fool of himself. his actions are a setback for the handicap community and for the people that have worked to help lift the sterotype that handicap people cant make a difference. he has once again made handicap people into a freak show and comedy act. he should be ashamed not proud.

  • Agreed.

  • You're just an asshole.

  • Kyle should be competing in BJJ and Wrestling matches, not MMA. I give him all the respect in the world for wanting to compete, but he should also take his opponents into consideration. What kind of situation is he putting them in and how can they really "win" without also losing? MMA is at least 50% striking. Without any limbs, it's not possible to win against a game opponent. Competing in grappling contests would even the playing field and be more realistic.

  • Most of these people are mad they have fully able to do whatever it is they really want to do, but are just too lazy to give it a shot. With all his troubles he still fights to do what he wants, and it pisses these guys off. Maybe he is just wanting attention, I dont know but so what, are you jealous or something? Let him go for it, and really do any of you know shit about martial arts, or "MMA" as you like to call it, btw *its mixed martial arts* not an art..so stop with the "he does MMA".

  • You know, I dont think he should compete against able bodied people just because it's not completely fair, but life isn't fair. If thats what he wants to do and its his dream, why try and down him for it? If he gets beat so what, hes doing what he loves. Most of the people on here don't know shit about Martial Arts besides what they watch " On Bullshit MMA". Mostly their pissed because deep inside they know that some guy out there with no arms or legs is doing what he loves and they aren't.
