This was actually ufc 3. Royce Gracie, the defending champion,won his match against kimo but was not able to continue,due to fatigue.So an alternate took his place,named Steve Jennum, who was a cop if I remember,so was atleast familiar with joint locks.
He was automatically put into the championship match, which he won with an armbar, and won ufc 3, with Royce Gracie winning ufc 1,2 and 4. A little history lesson.
@Legend33Larry yes, and the introduction of gloves actually made MMA even more dangerous - the introduction of gloves actually promoted more striking, the number of knockouts went up subsequently.
@Ayandolos against someone like me who knows what they are doing, grabbing your arm is not a defense it just slows me down a sec. there are several ways to break someones grip on their own arm and then lock it. That or you can shift to a triangle choke seamlessly.
@tusccountyjiujitsu Well, i´m sure it wouldn´t work on someone who is a proffesional but a guy in my school took me to the ground and tried to use the arm-bar, i knew he was going for it so i grabbed my arm, there was nothing either could do and if he lets go of my arm then i will get up quickly.
We were there for a while untill others separated us.
who the hell cares if noone knew wtf mma or the ufc was. its still their fucking career and theres no excuse for giving up your arm for a loss like that. even if no one knew wtf ufc was back then and ''its really no big deal then'' ofcourse its a big deal they are getting payed to win -_____________-
@socom351 how are these pure strikers supposed to be able to defend against something they didnt even know about you could setup a submission and they most likely wouldnt know what was going on until the choke or lock is already finished
@socom351 The fight game was really different back then in ways you can't understand unless you actually watch these old shows and learn the history. Comparing the mentality of fighters back then to today's fighters would be almost impossible.
For example, even if he wanted to learn how to defend an armbar, it wouldn't be an easy thing to achieve. Training resources were limited back then. Odds are, his only apparent option would be to order some Gracie instructional tapes.
@socom351 "who the hell cares if he can't predict the future. no excuse. he's supposed to know how a new sport will evolve 5-10 years down the road and train for it you idiots. he's getting paid to win."
This is a boxer, a novice at grappling with no idea what he was doing. The early UFC fighters would mostly be destroyed today because of the skill sets required. 16 years ago not that many people really understood ground fighting in the main stream.
I find it hilarious that all these people who think they are "real" UFC fans are denying that this is the UFC. This is from the glory days of MMA, in an environment where no holds barred meant no holds barred, and here is a fine example of fight styles clashing. The boxer on the ground simply cannot fathom that his arm will be put in a lock, even though today the armbar is a common method of submission.
@theatlantisrise I agree! Early UFCs were better than the recent ones! The fights were much closer to the real street-fighting - no rounds, no time-limits, no stand-ups, no clinch-breaks, etc.!
@DeKonjoo ummm.... have you ever grappled? yeah that's how a novice who doesn't know how to defend an arm bar gives up... I assume you think it's like pro wrestling? I don't want to start a stupid argument because that wastes time and energy, I've had 4 ammy MMA fights and I promise you it's not fake.
@tsferg look for Cory "the wolfman" walter, there's two of my wins, and my dumbass loss where I refused to tap and got put to sleep. had a 5th fight, not online yet.
UFC label in the corner. Not many knew what jiu jitsu was. MMA is popular considerably these days. Everyone needs to know jiu jitsu or else your going to get killed.
I'm a 45er so sometimes when i'm rolling with a skilled heavyweight and they've mounted me, I'll hand them my arm just to get out that weight off my chest! but i always try to rotate out of it...
@muffemod dude.. it says UFC on the bottom right corner... it is UFC dude... and nothing is staged in mma fights, look at dantefromsomm comment, he is right
@muffemod YES IT FUCKIN IS YOU GUYS ARE DUMB FUCKS BACK IN THE DAYS NO ONE KNEW THE GROUND GAME AND ..AND IT WAS MORE BOXING VS JUDO OR SUMO VS KICK BOXING
I know that this was back when MMA was just getting off the ground in the states, and most strikers knew very little about the ground game, but I really don't get how it is that they would hear they are fighting a judo or juijitsu fighter and not at least take a cursory glance at at least a book on the art or something. It would be like a judo or juijitsu guy being completely overwhelmed by punches and saying "wow, never seen those before"!
@StealthDonkey007 You know, I have visited so many martial arts, and the majority of them , at least in the beginning, treated their art like it was the one and only true art, and they had no need of studying another. They reminded me of religious cults that teach their students that it is sinful to examine whether or not other arts can actually work. I still bump into people who will not try BJJ and they state that they would/will never go to the ground in a fight. Little do they know....:P
@G0dspelronin I thought the debate regarding needing grappling skill was settled 15 years ago. I never would have dreamed that today people would still be arguing they would simply punch the guy in the balls or never go to the ground. The most laughable are the ones that argue finger breaks are game stoppers. And they say UFC is just a sport not realizing the few rules were only added 7 years later to get state licensing.
@nexusutube I completely agree with you. I still hear this argument today. It never ceases to amuse me. Nothing surprises me more than listening to a guy tell me that he will beat up multiple opponents, yet cannot beat one BJJ guy. But he'll swear the BJJ guy will get pulverized by multiple attackers in the same sentence. It makes for an amusing tail chase conversation.
@G0dspelronin However, throw a punch combo at someone who does majority of bjj and he'll flinch and crumble and flail. That's the only problem with bjj is that its a pure sport not a combat martial art so however good you are you can be in trouble if you take it to the ground and suddenly your oppenent is punching you in the face.
@TerminusAt I represent that statement! Lol I have seen it go both ways. Some guys are psycho, eat the punch, lose a tooth, but break the arm. Other , the majority, flinch and cover...Sooooooo,you are pretty accurate in saying so.
@nexusutube I broke two fingers and two toes in training the other day! :) I thought they were just banged up a bit.. Finished training, in no particular pain, went to see the doctor couple of days later. One of them grew together wrong, but other than that they are fine now. People also tend to try to break your fingers when you work as a bouncer, everything from girls having a temper tantrum, to drunk students that you have to carry outside. Never works though.
Perfect example of how effective something as simple as an armbar can be, when against someone with no bjj knowledge. most douchebags who try to pick a fight with you will probably have no idea that sticking your arms out like that is a sin in bjj.
All your comments are ignorant, this is from beginning years of the UFC. These guys did not train to defend such techniques like an armbar. It was completely NEW TO THEM.
@CodyBear6 Somebody who doesn't know what an armbar is. Which is the case with the boxer in this video.
They didn't exactly have BJJ schools on every street corner back in 1994, and I don't even think the three UFC events that occured prior to this were released on VHS yet. It's doubtful he was exposed to the technique beforehand, so he was probably just confused when Jennum stood up with his arm.
@Mr95candyman yeah the guy just wants to push him off, but what i love about this is that in a streetfight the other guy most likely doesn't know any of ur techniques either..
by the way this is not really bjj submission though, same one is in several styles. in wrestling and some old kung fu styles and japanese have it too which i believe it got selected for use of bjj fighter also.
@Mr95candyman yeah the guy just wants to push him off, but what i love about this is that in a streetfight the other guy most likely doesn't know any of ur techniques either.

@DonMega187i dident know that but i bet u dident know that our westen boxing stance which is used by boxers today is only that way cus of the Filipino martial arts. it started when the sailers used to stand with there lead hand fully extended punching with the back of there hands so they could work and the Filipino people fort with there arms tucked in cus they learnt to fight with knives and if your wrist gets cut u die. so the natives beat up the big sailers and then westen stance was made
Yes the humble world of 1994 was hardly ready LOL. What was that guy to do? Get on his horse pc and wait for his dial up to produce a primitive search engine to pull up the two active websites pretaining to armbars? You had to know the shit.
@PompousFlea was after the match had been going a while. that guy was so tired from hitting Jenum (spelling) that it was muuuuch easier to just put the armbar on him. just sayin.
Ahhhhh Steve Jenum vs Milton Bowen. UFC #5 I believe! And, after the fight, Jenum walks over and picks up the tooth he got knocked out by Milton. Milton knocked it out from the BOTTOM of the mount! OUCH! Guess you still CAN hit people pretty hard from the bottom, eh? hehehehe
@MrMZaccone No it wasn't. It was actually UFC #4, one of the quater-final bouts. I meant to hit 4 and accidentally pressed 3. It was after Steve Jennum won UFC 3 as an alternate. THis was supposed to be the qualifier in the tournament where he would defend his UFC 3 title. He never came back after this fight.
@GJJFan You're absolutely right! It's been so long I had gotten it all twisted up in my head. Jennum was the alternate in UFC3 and only fought once to win (stupid rules) then this was UFC4. He did come back at the ultimate ultimate '95 though where Tank Abbott made a hat for him out of one side of the cage. Thanks for the correction.
This is early ufc I remember this from when I was a kid n a lot fighters still knew nothing of submissions judging by the shoes n gloves being worn by the dude in yellow he's just a boxer n knows little about grappling
I remember that fight. I think it was on UFC 3.

@DonMega187i dident know that but i bet u dident know that our westen boxing stance which is used by boxers today is only that way cus of the Filipino martial arts. it started when the sailers used to stand with there lead hand fully extended punching with the back of there hands so they could work and the Filipino people fort with there arms tucked in cus they learnt to fight with knives and if your wrist gets cut u die. so the natives beat up the big sailers and then westen stance was made

Yes the humble world of 1994 was hardly ready LOL. What was that guy to do? Get on his horse pc and wait for his dial up to produce a primitive search engine to pull up the two active websites pretaining to armbars? You had to know the shit.

@PompousFlea was after the match had been going a while. that guy was so tired from hitting Jenum (spelling) that it was muuuuch easier to just put the armbar on him. just sayin.

Ahhhhh Steve Jenum vs Milton Bowen. UFC #5 I believe! And, after the fight, Jenum walks over and picks up the tooth he got knocked out by Milton. Milton knocked it out from the BOTTOM of the mount! OUCH! Guess you still CAN hit people pretty hard from the bottom, eh? hehehehe

@MrMZaccone No it wasn't. It was actually UFC #4, one of the quater-final bouts. I meant to hit 4 and accidentally pressed 3. It was after Steve Jennum won UFC 3 as an alternate. THis was supposed to be the qualifier in the tournament where he would defend his UFC 3 title. He never came back after this fight.
GJJFan 1 year ago
@GJJFan You're absolutely right! It's been so long I had gotten it all twisted up in my head. Jennum was the alternate in UFC3 and only fought once to win (stupid rules) then this was UFC4. He did come back at the ultimate ultimate '95 though where Tank Abbott made a hat for him out of one side of the cage. Thanks for the correction.

This is early ufc I remember this from when I was a kid n a lot fighters still knew nothing of submissions judging by the shoes n gloves being worn by the dude in yellow he's just a boxer n knows little about grappling

He probably did it on purpose. You do not go into a fight like that and not know what arm bar is.
