Kane you should not lose I your biggest fan and undertakers so
Alex said on 6/Jun/11
Kane I heard would put up 405lbs on the flat bench for easy reps of 10 or so which would result in around a 500-510lb max but no way 650.

Does anyone really think the wrestling business is going to take a guy who was listed @ 6'8" in college sports and bill him less than that? I think the chance of that is just about zero. I've never seen Jacobs listed at 6'7" as a wrestler, he was billed 6'9" as Yankem.
I agree, I think the 6'7" billing is a myth. He was billed 6'7" for Pro Wrestling Magazine - a wrestling magazine for those not familiar. I used to read it and I loved the magazine but their billings were bizarre and all over the place. 'Taker 6'9", Kane 6'7", Viscera 6'10", Snitsky 6'10" (seriously), goes on and on :>)
I have seen Undertaker tower over Snitsky LOL

Prime kane could bench press 650, didn't dave mezter the one who said that kane benched 650. Kane now benched 535 550
And Andre weighed 685lbs... Kane could never bench 650lbs. That is insane. I agree with Danimal. He's not benching over 500lbs. BTW, I can bench way over 400lbs myself, so I'm guessing I have a deeper understanding of strength than most posters on this site. As for his height, he never had more than 3" on 6'5" Goldust. So he is 6'8" max and probably closer to 6'7.5". He wore 2" lifts back in the day.
hs2011 says on 31/May/11
Danimal says on 25/May/11
He's also been given a 6'7" listing. He's not over that.
Ok, I've never seen that but I'll take your word for it. Hogan was billed 6'5" once, so I guess he was never over that.
Post evidence of his 6'5" billing. I'm calling you out. A 6'5" billing for a prime Hogan is not happening.

Abysss is also carrying WAAAAAYYYY more fat than Matt Morgan as well. If fat-mass is what impresses you then hey more power to ya.
Yeah, but his bone structure is far bigger than Matt's. Trust me man, I'm a big man myself and so are most of my friends. Plus, I used to wrestle and play football in school. I can tell this kind of stuff. Plus, I've been really close to both. Just trust me, Abyss is a legit monster. He would destroy Morgan strength wise. I think Morgan is awesome, but Abyss is "awesomer".

You would be laughed off of any weightlifting/bobybuilding site. You have NO idea how heavy 650 pounds is.. Some of the strongest men in the world can't bench more than 2-3 reps on 500 pounds.

If anything can be taken from this is that wrestler billings are essentially arbitrary and that the "lowest" billing ever given for a wrestler may or may not be accurate. It is bizarre that the wrestling biz which loves to inflate stats would ever undercut a sports listings though.

No, but then throwing him 5+ rows deep into the crowd is. A WCW Big Show also military pressed Mysterio with one arm. He also military pressed larger wrestlers like Randy Savage and threw them over the top rope from outside the ring. A 1999 Big Show military pressed 320+ lb. Kane (with some help, which is almost always the case) and then threw him out of the ring. Tony Atlas legitimately pressed wrestlers in the 230+ lb. range and even larger (Hogan and a young King Kong Bundy, though these presses weren't clean).

chocolate_milk Thats full of crap. your the one spewing crap man..kane benching over 600.. his max is 550 back in the days.. current probably 535...I dont see anything proof that kane benched 600 or over..Kane is naturally strong...When Kane slammed big show. big show went on his shoulders so it was easier for kane to slam show.. it was like a running power slam only still on his feet..sure kane is stronger then most super stars back then..theres no way as you said kane can bench press 600 or over.. Kane's coach said he was there when Glenn jacobs broke over 500 pound barrier. as he gotten older he gotten stronger maxed out at 550. kane tore his bicep doing bicep curls doing curls is biceps. bench press has nothing to do with biceps. chest and shoulders..i feel it on my shoulders if its too heavy..not my bicep.. I would advise what you say... 550 still a big feat..600 and over i dont see kane doing

Kane might be a bit stronger than Sid in the weight room, but when it goes to throwing around other wrestlers like sacks of potatoes Sid is the man! I have never seen any other wrestler show the brute strength in the ring like Sid has. Sid is truly one of a kind, and the WWE is nuts for not bringing him back yet. Oh yeah and Kane is awesome too!

If you don't beleive me , then keep watching them vedios of SID in the
WCW days or even early WWF days ! And military press some one as tiny as
Ray isn't the same as the men SID throws into the ring who are all in the

Hi Mamun,
I am actually neutral, because I think both are awesome, I am not favoring anybody. But as far as my expieriences, guys with the look of Kane tend to be stronger; Sid was always pretty ripped.
I do think Sid is stronger than Triple H and also stronger than Batista though.
To bring back height back into discussion, I personally think that, taking morning height, Sid is 6ft7,5 and Kane is 6ft8,5.
I will look up a few strenght feats of Kane though.
nick, said on 3/Jul/09
i weighed 225 when i did the 315 for 12. A week before i did 405for a single. Im 6'2.5 have really long arms (80 inch wingspan) so i use a wide grip. Right now i weigh 207 and cut down for the summer, havent really touched heavy weight in 3 monthes. Im still good at repping weight like 225 etc but i know its gonna take a month to get use to heavy again.

Most I've ever weighed is 225 pounds around Christmas last year and I felt too heavy even at 6'2". You must feel heavy!!
sid said on 29/Jun/09
Doug Way I see it is, if you got the strength then do it..right..Winter I mass up using heavy weight such as 100 pound dumbell to curl for 3to4 reps..summer time i cut the weights down to do more reps for more defintions..so i'm sorta like body building. only thing I don't comepete..im just me to keep in shape train like a body builder..I also do martial arts..i do less training of that in the winter. to keep my size on..just 40 min bag workout.i dont wanna lose too much.. your right curling 100 pounds for 4 reps isnt nearly good at 50 pounds for 12 reps..i do train like a body builder. summers I increase my martial workouts to cut up and cardio, like i said everything i do is for keeping in shape..and be ready.
sid said on 29/Jun/09
Doug I'm 5'10 maybe 5'101/2 250 to 265 winter time, today I'm 247, cutting up for the summer, getting some stridations in, after all it's beach season right. I been working out since 82 since jr high non stop, my max weight was back then was 271.. yes I know thats pretty big for a shorter guy. look at jay cutler, ronnie coleman there 5'9 290 300..my weight is usually 250..20 pounds less then i was over 20 years ago..lee priest for his size is amazing.. what is he 5'6. I never tried 500 pounds, 490 is a heap of weight to even bench, even i have troubles man i do need a spot, i get a 1 maybe 2 reps with a spot on the second..I got bad joints from lifting heavy through out the years, ware and tare..I'm pretty much big bulk with defintion.. was I always strong as a kid growing up..I had the strength..hard adding rock solid muscles..i had a fare size before i worked out..adding rock solid was hard.. taken me years to get where I am..I still got a bum rotar cuff from 20 years ago..stil work through it..call me crazy lol

I did shoulder presses with 2x 50 lbs dumbells for 12 reps, and good form.
But shoulder presses and bench presses are my strong point.
Doug said on 29/Jun/09
You're probably a lot bigger than I am Sid if you can bench nearly 500lbs. What is your height and weight?
Doug said on 29/Jun/09
No 50lbs is not heavy if you just lift it a couple of times. I'm talking about if you sets of 50 like I do with 30lb weights. Try lifting a 50lb dumbell 50 times and then repating it again and again. I've been working out for 10-11 years sid. I'm no where near the size of Kane but I'm around 6'2" and 215 pounds, not small and I lift in moderation but focus on endurance.
Doug said on 29/Jun/09
"Batista said he cut the weight, and do more reps". Wise choice. I just think its best to find balance between doing a considerable amount of reps and lifting a decent weight. If the weight is so high that you can only do a handful of reps and you might strain yourself that tells me you should lower the weight and focus on muscle endurance.
Doug said on 29/Jun/09
Can I just ask what is the point of using a 100 pound dumbell and only doing 3-4 reps sid? I find the heavier weights are likely to strain your weaker lower arms and work less on the bicep muscle. I use much less weights and no way for reps so I don't strain the muscle but exhaust it, building muscle tissue. It works very well for me and I know other bodybuilders who use less weighs but are more focused on muscle endurance. I bet any money that 100 reps of a 30lb dumbell will be many times more beneficial than lifting a 100lb dumbell 3 or 4 times just to prove how macho you are. I'm not at all impressed by how much people can lift. Rather I'm more impressed by endurance and how long athletes/bodybuilders can maintain and how many reps they can do.

Yaspaa said on 28/Jun/09
Sid,I'm not denying the fact that it was a huge lift but if you are going to do something do it right.
Doug said on 28/Jun/09
I regularly train with 30 pounds. I've just tried to put more on and my dumb bell bar is not long enough to fit more weights on. The 10lb weights I have for the barbell looks huge on the dumbell. I reckon I could lift about 70lbs MAX, 100lbs or more you'd have to be built like the worlds strongest man, no kidding. Granted Kane is but I seriously doubt he does anything more than 150. He could probably bench press 500lbs which any body builder here knows is very extreme but 600lbs is ridiculous. Personally I don't think power lifitng the heaviest weights is good for you. I tend to train with lesser weights and do more reps as I want to keep a balance. As a wrestler though, the heavier the better it seems.
Doug said on 28/Jun/09
Agree with nick, even 150lb dumbells are very extreme. Anything over 100lbs for bicep curls is crazy.
Doug said on 28/Jun/09
100lb dumbells? 250lb dumbell? Does anybody realise the strain that would put on your sockets? Trust me even 50lbs is a serious dumbell weight if repeated in sets of 20. 50lb dumbells if used in the right way will build serious muscle. Even 50lb is dang heavy. 250lb is absurd on one arm, I don't believe it. I can believe 100lbs bicep curls which as Alex said is a serious weight for dumbells.
sid said on 28/Jun/09

Cobra said on 27/Jun/09
Regarding Sid and 250 lbs dumbell presses, I think it was meant to say 125 lbs pro dumbell. This is an awesome performance though if this is his training weight.
Btw people are exaggerating all over the place... so when you come with real numbers, the real ones aren`t as impressing as they should be... Abott didn`t pressed 600 pounds, it were 400. Not all the plates were for real.
Like 400 lbs is a weight were you have to be ashamed, LOL.
Kane def. benched over 500 lbs, 550 lbs could very well be true.
As far as I know he has been witnessed to bench 405 lbs for 10 full reps, which is extremely powerful. Arnold did 8 with 400 lbs by the way.

I can military press 225 for 10 reps seated military going to my chin. and i have trouble handling 100 lbs dumbells for a set of 5.

chocolate_milk said on 26/Jun/09
Also, one more thing. Kane can bench 535 - 550 pounds as his current max. If he underwent major bicep surgery (remember that he ripped his bicep), that will for sure decrease his strength. Sid said that back in the day kane could bench 550 pounds and that now he can bench 535 pounds. Let me get this straight sid, kane is 15 pounds weaker on the bench press after receiving bicep surgery? You have to rethink your comments. He obviously could do more than 550 in the past if his max is 535 now after bicep surgery. This is just one more piece of evidence as to why kane probably was in the 600's when it came to maxing out on the bench press. You also have to consider that he has lifted so many heavy guys with ease in his career (slamming khali. This slam was also a special one, if you watched that match, you notice that khali doesn't assist kane with the slam, his legs were perfectly still, he didn't get on to kane's shoulders or lift one of his legs up so kane could lift khali easier, kane slammed khali all on his own in scoop slam position, which requires freakish strength. He has also slammed big show and lifted big show so many times.

Ok first of all, my comment at least has some validity and it doesn't just spew out crap without backing it up like yours did Sid. The only reasonable and true thing that you have said is that kane is in shape and can currently bench 535 pounds as his max. Second, go to this youtube page
Click HereGo through the first 12 pages and ONLY READ "SAIHLS" comments, NO ONE ELSES, JUST SAIHLS. He accordingly has some friends who did something like an interview with him, where kane expressed that he can currently do 535 for his mask and as well in the past has done 405 X 12 on the bench press (mick foley and some other pro wrestlers saw him do that). 650 pounds according to Saihls, has been confirmed by Meltzers track record (Meltzer kane's coach or trainer I think).
Electric said on 26/Jun/09
Kane's max bench is DEFINITELY between 500-585 or so. I can't see him benching any less than 500, but he's definitely not breaking 600.
nick, said on 26/Jun/09
sorry manum, 250 pound dumbells are impossible to press at a shoulder press position. No one has ever even shoulder pressed 500 lbs strict ever. Maybe 150lbs dumbells and thats even hard to believe
Clay said on 25/Jun/09
Lmeister, are they tall guys that do the curls with 100's? The longer the arms the easier it si to do bicep curls. And you gotta wonder what their form is like...Arnold only did his curls with 60's, yet he has larger biceps than anyone else in his gym and they were doing more than him...he couldn't help but laugh at their terrible form.

"Kane maxing out at 650 isnt too hard to believe. Tank Abbott maxed out at 600 (its on youtube) and if you look at their frame sizes Kane is a much larger man than Tank Abbot."
There's a big difference though, Kane is 6'8"-ish while Tank is stocky, short armed 5'11" guy. The squatty types just seem better suited to benching big weights. But yes, Kane is a much larger man and likely far stronger than Tank functionally.
Lmeister said on 25/Jun/09
100lbs is lot, but not impossible I know at least a few guys who can do curls with 100lbs dumbells and they are big guys, but not massive freaks. To be able to do curls with 60-80lbs you gotta have decent muscles, but not bulked up.

100lb dumbells is a lot, trust me. Majority of guys aint doing close to that much. I can do 60s for 6 reps and I find that to be good. I could probably max out with 70s but no more than that.
Coleman was doing 160lb dumbells on shoulder press which is harder than any chest dumbell press whether its flat, incline or decline.
CaptainSpaulding said on 24/Jun/09
100 lb dumbells are very heavy. My dad could bench 400 lbs when he was younger and a 100 lb dumbell was the heaviest he could curl with 1 arm.
Btw the Bighow can bench 675 lbs, and hes alot stronger then Kane so Kane coudnt do 650.

You obviously lying. 200lb dumbbell curl?? The top strongmen can MAYBE cheat-swing curl 160lb. Bill Kazmaier... one of earth strongest ever had a cheat 440lb barbell curl, so Kane is not easily doing reps with 200lb dumbbells like you say, and you aren't doing reps with 100lb either, for that matter. The fact you think he can shows you're just lying here and trying to make yourself sound like a big man on the internetz.

The raw bench press is the only one that interests me,Bruce lee was 140lbs and was curling 75lbs!! I have been skimming through older Royal Rumble events and Kane was easily larger then,I dont think his bench is anywhere near his best now. The guy who played Kurrgan is 6'10 and I was hoping to see him next to Kane in the Rumble,denied however.

at 1095 lbs a few moments latter ! The photo is already with the ROB !

It's common knowledge that Khali is so enormous and strong that Vince and the WWE staff have limited his move list. He isnt allowed to do powerbombs, suplexes etc. because well, that would probably mean half of the roster would frequently be on the injured reserve. That sucks because it was fun when he debuted and threw the cruiserweights around like they were pillows.

Shock of Electric said on 5/Jun/09
1.5" heeled wrestling boots give the same percentage of lift as .75" wrestling boots. +2 and +2 layers.
It should be noted, my Tims also give me 1 7/16" increase, no inserts, which is the same as the thickest heel measurement, this is including the part between the sole and the boot itself, which all counts towards what you're standing on.
Taker is not standing in any advantageous position in that pic, and also, in the other pic you post where you claim Kane's legs don't close up, you clearly see him stand up straighter in the close up part of the video and they start walking. As soon as they start walking you can still see Kane is .5" shorter.
Electric Shock said on 5/Jun/09
Da Man, even if they didn't boost the total...wouldn't everyone's boots go down proportionate to their weight? Given Taker and Kane are within 20 lbs of each other, wouldn't their boots lose almost the exact same amount of height?
Da Man said on 5/Jun/09
Taker is on a lower plan, but New Diesel is taller, and stepping back. Taker is standing pretty well, even shifting his weight to the balls of his feet. If Sid was the one doing that, some here would be accusing him of "tip-toeing".
Da Man said on 5/Jun/09
Shock of Electric says, "Most of the pics on this site when measuring high heel shoes, do not have the nearly 1" of platoform like large wrestling boots do, and on top of that, nearly double the claimed heel height. If you lose .75" on a 2.75" heel that has less than .5" in the font, you're going to lose significantly less than that in a wrestling boot with .875" in the front and 1.4375" in the back. This should not be such a shocking revelation."
Nike Shox do, what determines the height increase footwear gives is determined by the height of the pivot point of the foot, and that's all it boils down to. The steeper the incline, the lower the pivot point is in relation to the heel. A perfectly flat shoe (sole thickness the same under both the ball and heel of the foot) would boost height by the same amount as the heel thickness. Wresling boots do not do this,
Nike Shox do not do this, almost no shoe does this, therefore a 1.5" heeled wrestling will NOT boost height by 1.5". Defying physics still.

Shock of Electric said on 5/Jun/09
First off, I am not the same person as Electric Shock, I would like to clarify that.
Taker and Kane during the time where their footwear was even:
Click HereNo angle or proximity advantages, no seperate pics taken with the same person at different postures, they are lined up, I corrected the camera tilt in the full body shot in the second pic, but provided both.
While Kane's traps, and even eyes may be slightly higher, at the end of the tape, it doesn't matter.
And again, another way to determine this is to simply go back to 1997-99, see that Kane is at the very absolute most 1" taller, and has more than a 1" boot advantage.
Click HereFor a 1.5" wrestling boot, generally this is how it's layered:
3 layers in front = .875"
5 Layers in the back = 1.4375"
There's a tiny bit of boot above the part where the boot material meets to the sole, which comes out to 1.5"
Other common layerings:
1 layer = approximately .3" Sometimes a bottom layer is slightly thicker in some parts than others, ranging between .25" and .3"
3 layers in front, 3 in back, still a difference of 2 layers.
Most of the pics on this site when measuring high heel shoes, do not have the nearly 1" of platoform like large wrestling boots do, and on top of that, nearly double the claimed heel height. If you lose .75" on a 2.75" heel that has less than .5" in the font, you're going to lose significantly less than that in a wrestling boot with .875" in the front and 1.4375" in the back. This should not be such a shocking revelation.
The actual difference between the front and back is 0.5625", so at most you would lose, what? *maybe* 1/8" on a 1.5" boot, it's really not even that much. The back of your foot is virtually straight across in a wrestling boot, it doesn't continue to go up at the same incline until the very back usually. There are some exceptions like Steve Austin and Big Show's boots, they seem to have a gradual incline all the way to the back but that wouldn't matter as much.
Kane's old boots at 2", may lose .25" if there's a 1" total difference in the front and back, but that's being generous to Dam Man. This means 1.75" extra for Kane and .5" max for Taker, a difference of 1.25". If they switched boots, Taker would be more than 1" taller than Kane. Kane's current boots range from 1.25" - 1.75", he usually wears 1.5"

Ray said on 3/Jun/09
I don't know how anyone can say Kane is clearly taller when the only evidence we have where Kane is slightly taller (.5") is when he is next to Taker in his larger boots so how is that concrete? Even when Kane had his enormous boots with internal lifts on back when he first debut he was only 1-1.5" at most taller. They're rouhgly the same height and I do think Undertaker has always been slightly taller than Kane but Kane needed the bigger boots to appear the bigger younger brother.

I'm still waiting for Electric to explain how his 1.5" wrestling boots, which only provide 1.25" at the pivot point of the foot, provide an actual 1.5" height increase over barefoot. Apparently these wrestling boots are rather unique in that they somehow manage to defy the laws of physics. That might be a decent tag line for a line of "Electric Shock" lifts. Electric Shock lifts, defying the laws of physics. You'd get a call from Sly Stallone in no time.

Brock's been observed benching maxing 485 lbs Sid, and no way does Khali have more functional strength than Show. Not even close. Now can he bench press more than Show? Maybe.
I make no sense? Haha, that's real rich considering the source, how do you know Show was putting up more weight in '99, Sid? Where's the source? And once again, you are confusing who bench presses the most with functional strength. I say no WWE superstar has more real world, functional strength than Big Show, I quantify what I mean by that statement, then you say "no" because you heard some guys bench press more. Talk about missing the point. lol

Your saying kane back then when he was putting up the most weight..he out benched big show no..I have read chris benoit saying kane was the strongest guy he ever seen..so maybe it's possible for him to bench 560..I have my opinions to man 560 is too much for kane..khali benches 600 50 pounds over kane's 560 suppposly nah I don't see 560, 535 yep..

Weights in the gym is different than picking up people or moving furniture. If you are strong you're going to be strong at both but some guys who dont go to the gym can be just as strong as you when coming to lifting things besides weights.

Yeah,when Kane Chokeslams somebody and the timing is off it looks ropey but Show gets away with it,he is a beast I have to say,much greater core strength due to his gift/curse I guess. Show doesn't seem to go through the motions of picking someone up..like 1,2,3 and away,he just picks people up! Show probably does 540lbs at all the exercises.
Da Man said on 2/Jun/09
Who knows what Kane meant by 535 though, that may have been his all time max, or his then current max.
Sid, why is 535 believable yet 565 so unbelievable? It's 30 lbs. Meltzer at one time said Kane was the guy putting up the most weight in the gym (back around '99, IIRC), and that was back around the time Big Show Show was in his prime as well. And while I agree that Kane's "functional strength" isn't as great as Show's (a lot to do with leverage, body type, weight, bone size; no WWE superstar matches Show here, including M. Henry), that doesn't mean it is impossible that he could outperform Show in certain lifts in the gym.

Electric Shock said on 1/Jun/09
It's been said Kane benched 565. Kane only claimed 535 though.

Rantsrob You don't fight..do you..The power i poessed from benching 490 gives me the power to punch stronger while training...on the baq.. and sparring with friends..In training you don't only train with bag, focus mitts there weight training as well to make yourself stronger..I stop training for ring fights I keep in shape by working out.. and training on the bag, and spar my friends...Anyone can punch.. some punches ain't proper..you make fist you hit someone with full force..sure you can hurt them....there lots of people who never had any experience in fighting.. they do punch..when it comes to it.. ya they hurt them...anyone can punch..weighting training does help your power.. Kane is still in shape.. I still believe he reps 500 pounds..he wrestled 2nd most next to cm punk last year. for that ya you need to keep in shape..batista in his new book said kane worksout more then any other superstar besides himself..kane is a walking dictonary.. of working out..he has over 40 memebers ships all over.. im just going what the book saids

The Ben Actually benching lots can give you power..anyone can punch if they make a fist...whether or not if it's a proper punch...thats a differnt story...I bench near 500, that power I use when I train gives the power to punch more harder...I'm training for a ring fight. I train to keep in shape and always be ready...
Mamun..Kane isn't out of shape.. I know for a fact kane works out everyday more then any other wwe superstar next to dave.. dave said that in his book..kane worksout everday more then any other wrestler..Kane is in shape..kane is in better shape then most wwe superstar.. and for his size to.. he is in better shape then big show..Kane still probably benches 500 even today. I thought you asked him how much kane benches didn't he say 535..maybe he reps 500 drops the 35 pound off...500 pounds is good enough for his size to rep to workout more.. if he can rep 405 12 times..he can rep atleast good 8 with 500. Kane is in shape..more then others..he wrestled more then anyone on the roster.. last year that you have to keep in shape..2nd next to cm punk..I doubt kane is out of shape..
The only thing that made sense in that paragraph is "Kane is not out of shape."
sid said on 31/May/09
Kane is 6'8 where did you see a picture of max starks and kane??
Electric Shock said on 31/May/09
Kane is 6'7.75". Not that I'm complaining too much about what you guys have, but compared to 6'7.1" Max Starks he comes out between a half an inch and .75 taller, making 6'7.75" very likely.

Machida was amazing,did you see Rashad's mouth was wide open when he got clocked,fantastic. Krav utilises low kicks so they cant be that useless. Sid if you are are 5'10 and 240 your kicks are going to be sloooow so no I wouldn't use them either if I was you.
sid said on 25/May/09
Da Man that kick would work in a controlled manner in a tournment ring sanction street fight.. I agree it will do some damage..cause in the ring some tournments for standing up fight don't allow them to catch the foot while getting kicked..street kick can easily be easily evaded..like i said before...look at my convo below.
Da Man said on 25/May/09
Machida has a kick I would want no part of, even with a police shield.

Da Man Maybe someone hijacked your name. or I read it wrong. You said Sid you dont know what your talking, yes I do know what I'm talking about.
Yaspaa those kicks high low works in tournments ring fights, can't you read man cmon man.. street is differnt....yes it can do damange in the ring...I never thrown kicks in a street fights understand meaning in public park, anywhere put the ring..not wise to throw any sort of kicks in a street fight. I got a friend who is 60 he been doing karate goju ryu since 1967.. he said anyone kicks in a fight is a glunten for punishment.. it isn't a smart fighter..easy caught,
blocked sweeped, snaped taken down on the ground like what I said Yaspaa stop aruging something you don't have expereince in.
Yaspaa said on 24/May/09
Waahaaah,apparently even sid doesn't have any idea what he's talking about DM (like we didn't already know),he could be delusional,stuck in an imaginary military world where he is the Sargeant Major and wants to kick Richard Gere's gigilo tooting ass and as you like turning debates to suit your own way of thinking siddles(dont we all....in a normal way!) try this ....What does 'Mrs.sid' think of all this? Is she the brains of the family? How large does a piece of fluff have to become to be considered a tuft or is fluff just a tuft without the DNA,personally I think sid is the higher end of the calorie chain,he's a fruit cake,he's nuts and bananas and all this whilst being a nugget,no wonder you bench 490oz.

Feint low kick into high kick. The UFC fighters are are world class thats why they need to be separated and a world class welter weight like Pierre would nail a mediocre heavyweight.
sid said on 24/May/09
Da Man I do know what I'm talking about...I been doing this longe then you..Your in a navy good for you I was in the army..I seen enough street fights to know kicks aren't useful...low or high..anyone kicks a person they catch it, sweep there leg, block or a take down..Kicks are good in a controlled manner such as a ring fight tournments.. not street fights totally differnt..You give me a low cut kick I will catch it snap your ankle. or take you down..and do whatever I can to finish you man..I do admit a low cut kick will do some damage not if the other guy is quick...enough to see it coming...I fought a amatuer note might I add not all MMA fighters are that great. I out weighed him..thats why they have weight classes suit you...If your weigh 50 pounds more then the other guy no contest.. look at UFC.. they have weight clases to fight.super heavy weight, light weight etc..you put a heavy weight agaist a light.. heavy weight gonna win..thats called a mis match..I didn't fight just sparred him..I out powered him.out sparred him.. got out of his moves..he got me down.I roled him over pumbled him with punches.. he tried a arm bar..i out powered him.. note this is just a sparring session...differnt weight classes..I do have some grappling experience.. combat hapkido..little more simplier, just like brazlian ju jitsu is simpiler then japan style of ju jitsu ....
sid said on 23/May/09
Yaspaa You can't say nothing when you have no experience.. I seen it only two times it was full blown contacted kick high one was going his temple, other was a low cut kick was to the thigh...Street fights is differnt from a ring fight.. kicks high low will work in a controlled manner ring fight tournments etc not in a street fight..Yes I maybe a rebell...I do teach people a lesson..I did Taekwondo itf style 75 to 85 black belt in that,85 till 99 I did mauy thai kick boxing, during that stint, I was in the army I had trained in combat hapkido at the same token I was doing mauy thai and combat hapkido at the sametime..Got a black belt in that..I know I shouldn't fight it's in my nature, I started to street fight in 79...Lots of people take martial arts to prove there skills to fight in the streets..not all are gonna be good man...It should be for self defense purposes, I got a bad temper..I'm still feeling young for a man who is turning 40. Working out, and doing martial arts has kept me in great shape..i normally train to keep in shape and always be ready..I'm not training for a ring fight anymore.. that went belly up..10 years ago...I am a rebell not a thug thats this generation..Yaspaa it isn't right, nothing is these days nothings is these days man...Me I never kicked in street fight I was smart about it.. don't need to. I got a knock out shot..Kicking in street fights isn't a smart, catch it, could snap your ankle, or block it, or sweep you down, hit you in the groin, yaspaa you can't say anything when you don't have experience..ring fights kicks are great...i have both experience..more street fights..to know kicks high low is stupid to use in a street key word street fight.
sid said on 22/May/09
Yaspaa all your showing me ring fights.. show me kick in a street fight.. on video. thats right theres isnt none cause you cant do it in one..stop talking when you have no real street fight experience..I been fighting on the streets since 79 till now.. well couple of years, I only seen 2 kicks which didn't prevail, caught or
blocked..You can catch a low kick in mauy thai boxing for a few seconds and trip them down before getting penalized..stop talking yaspaa...you have no proof..on video..never will be..You know why I know you have no street fight experience cause think you low kicks or kicks wil work in a street fight..give it up man..
sid said on 22/May/09
Yaspaa No point in going in circles when you don't have street fight experience. your circumnavigating, your saying things that won't be feesible in a street fight..high kicks low kicks will work in a controlled manner such as in a tourment and in the ring. Da man you don't have street fight experience as well I do. I kicked friend a high side kick out of no where while he was drinking beer at the last second this while he was standing up at the last second he caught the kick in his prefieo vision and moved. I just prooved my point..you can't get unexpected moves on camera it has to me unexpected..You people are pathethic to think it will work..on camera it wil be controlled not in realife

Yaspaa said on 22/May/09
Low kicks do work if you can kick properly and I'm sure any nugget would see your tree trunk leg coming towards them. A good kicker doesn't even have to kick it just happens,no telegraphing at all and it's the punch or the kick you dont see that knocks you down or out (or should I say oot). This guy isn't even a top guy (220lbs)

sid said on 21/May/09
Yaspaa one more thing, I kicked my friend whom I havn't seen in 25 years. he was drinking beer... out of no where i low cut kicked him unexpected.. at the last moment he moved out of the way.. cause he caught in his prefieo vision...He said woah man I wasn't ready good thing I caught it, if it didn't i would of been toasted..I always come up unexpected to my friends woah man i didnt see it..GEES LAY OFF MAN..I usually say I'm joking besides I'm not gonna go full power. I was trying to test your theory Yaspaa it didn't work..It can do some damange...it will be easily caught
blocked, or a broken ankle..you don't have experience in a street fight I do, I know what I am saying.
sid said on 21/May/09
Yaspaa Your not a street fight yaspaa I am.. kicks dont work in a street fight low or high.I seen only 2 people use kicks how and low.. they never prevailed.. cause it was caught or
blocked which ever one. I agree it will do some damange in a controlled fight like in a ring fight it will work.. not on a street.. I seen 2 people do it..Yaspaa Jacobs isnt a actor he is a wrestler..kane used those moves in realife he can do some damange. It will work if it is applied right, in a street fight..it won't. your not a street fighter. my friend who was laughing at what your saying..thinks you need to get brain in tacked...kicking low or high won't prevail.knees, elbows, punches all those will prevail
Yaspaa said on 20/May/09
First of all sid,Jacobs didn't fight in Japan,he acted out rehersed routines in Japan.You have never seen leg kicks used in the street? I wouldn't have expected you to. A top knotch kicker can do serious damage,it's like a baseball bat hitting you at 60+ mph and you dont even see it because his eyes havn't left yours,try and power out of something when your knee is hanging off.
Yaspaa said on 20/May/09
Wrong again sid, its 265lbs. Sid your a bodybuilder a fighter a trainer you watch TV shows and comment on here constantly and you work,how many does a Canadian day have,NOTHING you say makes any sense,Gary Goodridge is a relative bum. Yopu are truely a joke and the examples you give are completely bogus or pointless.
Yaspaa said on 20/May/09
UFC is the top organisation with the best fighters,265lbs is more than enough it keeps the lumbering ogres out. Do you really think Kane is going to go in and start choke slamming people,he's an actor a showman.
sid said on 20/May/09
corba, Brock had to make weight to fight, duh you ever watch Ufc reality Tv show.. you have to make a certain weight.. Brock had to lose weight to fight in the ufc..he went from 300 to 260..you should watch the show.. theres weight limit now.
sid said on 20/May/09
Yaspaa Yaspaa I'm 40 you stereo.. you don't need good grammer to be a adult man..Kane would pan out well..Kane uses those moves in realife he would hurt people.. yes wrestling is fake.. applying those moves in realife isn't fake..Kane had a proper training..would pan out well in the MMA world..I'm 40 I'm still dancing with these kids np all the time, I know what your gonna say, you mean dancing with them all night long, well thats no my cup of tea, probably yours, even your married, you can still Bi My point is I'm 40 same as kane who only 2 years older then me well 39 turning 40 in a couple of month, point is Those moves used in japan, the techincal aspect which you can use in realife, such in the MMA world can do some damange. I have seen MMA fights where someone out powered another fighter in a armbar. I think it was UFC 6 with gary goodridge just out powered his opponent with shere power..Besides when Jacobs fought in Japan..the guy was on the ground giving Jacobs a srm bar, Jacobs lifted him up and slammed him.. how can a guy help you jump up if he is on his back..still shere power..trying do that move in a mma matt, you would get your sense knocked into you..MMA rings don't bounce like wrestling does. I taken reverse back suplexs, on the a mma ring, it rung my bell, i still got up and fought.. point is kane trained right, he can prevail. Theres tons of guys in there 40's stil fighting in MMA chuck liddell made a come back..Theres lots men here in my city in there mid 40's training hard core.still kick ass...If I learned a armbar, whole techicnal aspect. Who wants to feel old, when you feel young Yaspaa thats what I'm doing feeling young.. A man can dream right..Using arm in realife you still kick ass, if you know how to apply it properly.. sure you can kick ass..see your not a real fighter, No one rule don't lick in a street fight, doesnt matter if it's a leg kick. people can catch your leg, your wide open..you took karate for self defense. you don't fight on the streets.. I never seen people use kicks or low leg kicks in a street fights its very dangerous, your wide open..Some used it, I just sweeped him down, got on top pumpled him away..Leg kick cmon...easy to block do a thai shin block,
Yaspaa said on 19/May/09
Sid,you are one of two things - A youth in your bedroom passionately in love with Kane,dreaming of long walks on the beach whispering sweet nothings in each others ears....or a complete butt nugget who cant tell the difference between real and a fake fight,your whole arguement was based on Kane owning these Japenese guys and powering out of an armbar (locking your fingers to prefent an armbar is not powering out of an armbar and even if he did...faaaake) in fact the Japanian was far more impressive with good leg kicks and you could imagine a 200lb guy doing some real damage.
Sid says - "Yaspaa Doesn't matter if it's fake.. he has experience once he aplies those moves foreal he can kick ass". You cant make this stuff up,it's hilarious.
DM,my last gasp of breath has gone on this debate,it's been an absolute hoot though,easily the best I've had on this site,I cant stop smiling about it actually,my wife thinks I'm sad... and a twat, which is always nice to hear,anyway Sid WTF.
Cobra said on 19/May/09
Why everyone is talking UFC, there are organizations who have no weigt limit.
265 lbs limit in the UFC is kinda low, cause if you are as tall as Kane and build, it`s very hard to make it. Unfair.
Jumping from boxing to MMA is more likely to have succes than the other way round, though, but it would take a ton of adjustment training.
sid said on 19/May/09
Yaspaa kane 6'8 would have to lose 80 pounds to fight in the ufc. kane learns MMA style anytime.. if he wishes,,,may take a year. sometimes less..I got a buddy who was in boxing now doing well in kickboxing...he never liked to kick. but he is now awesome.. he said he had more fun training in kickboxing rather then boxing.. that goes for you da man. Kane would fair out good in MMA,,Kane would be still strong..out power his opponents..do whatever it takes to win.. armbar punch..whole 9 yards...
Da Man said on 19/May/09
Sorry, don't know how "guess what Sid" slipped in there.
Yaspaa, how many MMA fighters do you think could jump right into professional boxing and be successful? How many boxers could jump straight into the UFC and be successful? I don't believe very many in either case. The same thing applies to an uncontrolled/unknown environment where anything goes, the guys that TRAIN FOR THOSE CONDITIONS will have the advantage over the boxer OR the MMA fighter. It's just how it is.
Da Man said on 19/May/09
LOL, ok Yaspaa. The rules are for the safety of the fighters, but guess what Sid, those RULES dictate how many of these up and comers LEARN THE MMA game. No brainwashing here...

OK, comment has not come up,maybe I forgot to add. The conceitedly named military runt of the litter.. Da Man has been brain washed by the non runts of the litter into believing that MMA fighters are complete geeks and follow octagon rules 24/7,these PROFESSIONAL FIGHTERS who's job it is to live and breathe fighting dont have the mental capacity to forget those rules when their life is in danger and pummel someone,I know you like your quotes,so I'll give you one,THE RULES ARE FOR THE SAFETY OF THE FIGHTERS,it is not a hindrance. Soldiers need to know and perform a multitude of things,self defence is ONE of those things. I like the way you brought in "life and death situation",completely irrelevant from the discussion but makes you seem less wrong.
sid said on 18/May/09
Yaspaa Doesn't matter if it's fake.. he has experience once he aplies those moves foreal he can kick ass..Glenn jacobs will pan out well out smarting his fighters in MMA unlike bob sapp all clumsy

The discussion isn't a life and death situation it is who would win a fight no rules in the street. You have military family,that explains it,who's biased now?
Yaspaa said on 18/May/09
Haha I have just watched that Kane fight in Japan and I have to say it's completly fake just like Kane.
Yaspaa said on 18/May/09
Cobra we aren't talking about the population we are talking about trained fighters,Hoost was past his prime and has lost plenty and Nog beat Sapp with a triangle or something,Cro Cop beat him and he was down 130lbs. I'll say this Kane can beat 99% of the population.
More contradiction DM,is it quick or methodical? It's stick and run,neutralise and escape, survive. An MMA fighter is way fitter as well. The FBI utilises Krav so watch out George St Pierre,Mulder is coming for you.
sid said on 18/May/09
Cobra I would say he is 6'8 317 to 320...I think he would have to lose weight to make weight to fight in the ufe, brock had to lose weight to fight someone his weight class.. that was 260...I seen Glenn jacobs on video shoot fight in Japan, which he was pretty good, he out powered a 150 pound jap..shere strengths that out powered him..That guy couldnt knock out kane..People who say Kane would be clumsy is wrong. he doesnt look clumsy now...he never did.
Cobra said on 18/May/09
sid says on 17/May/09: Kane would fair out well in MMA
Yeah, that`s what I said. Regarding this I think you are right, cause the dude is just too huge- 6ft8,5, by the way.
The listing above is an inch to low.
sid said on 17/May/09
Cobra Kane Glenn jacobs is a really smart guy... he was use his smart to out fight them..he wouldnt be all clumsy like sapp..Kane would fair out well in MMA I seen do some techincal moves in japan..and in the WWE every wrestler doesn't matter if it's power guys or not, there trained in basic techincal style to.. Kane did in Japan.. for few years Which I have seen...150 pound man could not knock kane..if a 150 pound try a arm bar..which that jap guy did fighting glenn jacobs in japan..in the early 90's kane got up lifted him up and slammed him., to kane and me 150 pounds is nothing..I might be a internet warrior..i speak my mind out if I have to...I'm a all around warrior in and out of the internet lol..Kane would stand his ground..in a mma fight..If I trained kane..I'm sure his punches would knock me back.. perhaps knock me out..he's 10 inches taller..stonger then I am...I'd still say Kane still benches 500 alteast.Kane is cornfed farm boy natural strength from st louis..where he grew up..
Da Man said on 17/May/09
Krav has "nothing" to do with wearing the opponent down when methodically? Actually, it emphasizes neutralization without injury (quickness), but beyond that is an emphasis on vulnerability exploitation. I.E. wearing the opponent down methodically. Krav is MEANT to be flexible, it is a survival skill as much as fighting style! One of the training methods of Krav is learn to handle yourself in exhausted and compromised states. There are no rounds in the real world!
Cobra said on 17/May/09
Wow, strong Internet warriors out here.
I won`t argue with Sid cause it doesn`t have sense, to Yaspaa:
Yes, I am saying Kane isn`t clumsy, and Sapp... his fight against Nortje was bad, but ask Ernesto Hoost? Or Nog?
Yeah, Sapp is useless... so useless, he beats 99,999% of the worlds population to pulp... same goes for Kane... including the Internet warriors on celebheights.
End of story.

I was doing stunt work for that year..no time to train..only trained at the gym and on set..See for me I like a good fight in the streets...Last one was 3 years ago..Weight classes they have, my point is makes more sense then UFC had weight classes not, before they didn't it was a mis match, some prevailed most didn't...weight clases even power or a tad better..why don't u get about that..150 pound guy would stand a chance agaist kane in a mma fight..Kane can out power jokes and arm bars, picks him up with strength. 150 pounds is nothing... he did that in japan. picked up a guy while the jap gave him a arm bar on the ground, kane picked him up and slammed him.. thats called power man..he can still do that.

The Ben Your getting out of hand, all I said was kane would have a hard punch...Kane would out power the other fighter...kane would have used his strength if he where in the mma..I'm pretty sure he would be smart about fighting to, nothing like bob sapp, using just his no brainer...no game plan..just be big and dumb..and no cardio...
sid said on 17/May/09
Cobra Actually you it's makes sense, Less weights more reps to cut up..you can't rep out 490 you dullard..I been working out before born probably... you cant rep out 490.. I would cut down 250 to 300 keep it semi heavy I can't rep 12 probably a good 7, then 250 less weight more reps will give you defintion, you had the size from bulking up..cut the fat out, do cardio eat more protien then carbs....I would actually go down to 250 to 300 for more reps...It's true cobra your not gonna use 490 to 500 pounds which you can't lift..I can.. I'm not gonna rep it out, like kane would or big show, mark henry... You know nothing about bodybuilding....You can't expect to bench 490 and look cut..when your lifting dead wood.. that gives you strength and mass, which has no cutness in...mass up in the winters. cut down starting in may..Since I'm not competing, I wouldn't be cutting 2 or 3 months prior to the show, I don't compete, I'm just me following my own plan..it is working great..I stripped already 5 pounds off...I cut down weights mass, to define up...everyone differnt..some people like yourself will never bench much..Theres people on here workout there not benching not nearly as I am...I know what I'm doing before your born probably. Basically your just wishful thinking pensive.. you wish you wanna bench that much you can't....Kane would destroy sapp, sapp is just big and dumb, Kane has skills from japan..he is still quite strong kane.

Sid says: hey summers coming up, I would even use 250 in june for proper form..to build defintion...
You, Sir, just got busted. Because nobody, who knows the basics of Bodybuilding (and if you can bench close to 500, you will LOL) will say something like that. Use lightweight to build definition. LOL. Failed.
Kane is pretty fast, actually. Look at Bob Sapp, for example. He did a lot of damage, and he is pretty clumsy, and he can`t take much, also he gasses fast. IMO Kane would do better than Sapp.
Congrats to Bobby for his first win, we will see how he does against Sapp.
Bobby got angry because his opponent wore a Rey Mysterio mask while walking to the ring LOL.
Kane would have owned Lashley`s opponent too, though.

Krav is designed to give you an advantage over another TRAINED solider that is trying to KILL you, not one that is trying to submit you or score a decision over you. I don't know where you get the idea that Krav was designed and evolved to give you an advantage over an average joe. It's just not true.
Krav borrows elements from numerous martial arts, includng Mua Thai, BJJ, Judo, Akido, and Boxing. Krav teaches you how to wear an opponent down methodically, it teaches you survival skills, it teaches you to recognize and exploit any and all vulnerabilites, and most importantly it teaches you how to use the environment to your advantage. MMA figthers DO NOT train to maim, they DO NOT train to use the environment (except in usage of octagon cage vs. roped ring).
Krav isn't part of a pro MMA fighter's in-ring repertoire because it doesn't LEND itself to scoring the decision in a regulated environment. NOT because it isn't effective! Facts are facts Yaspaa, if modern MMA was the end-all be-all Isreali and British Special Forces, the FBI, the military, Mossad, etc. would all just send their recruits to the Lion's Den. Fact is they don't. Professional MMA has become tailored TO THE RING. Everything these guys do and train for revolves around venue rules, and scoring the victory within the context of the venue. These guys don't train to be as deadly as possible, because that doesn't lend itself to professional MMA. It's not about being an MMA fan, I'm a BIG MMA FAN, but you just need to realize this stuff has become so refined that it just isn't the most practical fighting style in all scenarios.

Hi Mamun,Brock and Lashley are both phenomenal athletes,powerful and explosive. Kane just doesn't have the mobility to survive,his legs would be a prime target injured or not plus Brock was a very successful world class amateur and thats a great base for MMA,both Brock and Lashley are far more formidable because of the MMA. Shelton Benjamin,he could do well
DM,we are talking about a fair fight on the street one on one,using the swimming comparison is similar to giving the Krav guy a knife, it's a fact that Krav is to give an edge over the average guy,this is what it is for. Anderson Silva has a Gym apparently that amongst other things teaches Krav but it isn't part of his usable repertoire because he's a trained fighter and doesn't need those techniques in the ring or out,same thing with some of the other guys you mentioned,Bonner hurt his leg doing Krav for a movie,he wasn't training for himself.

IMO, MMA is popular and being given credibility for a simple reason - boxing (especially the heavyweight division) is pathetic. Most of these MMA guys would crap in their pants and turn tail if they ever saw a bare-knuckled Mike Tyson or Lennox Lewis across the ring. I do believe an MMA heavyweight with a top amateur wrestling background would be tough to beat if he could avoid the punches.

I dont think the MMA WWE Military argument can really be proved any way...
Im bowing out, it was fun though!!!

Mamun
Lashley was a college wrestler, Kane wasn't...and lashley is 32 (i think) lashley was also a major steroid guy..he wrestled amature at 180 lbs..
Lashley is also a great natural athlete... there are plenty of guys in wwe who i think could do well in MMA... i just dont think kane is one of them.... Its only my opinion and i know i could be wrong... our question will never be answered..
Lashley spent 2 or 3yrs as a pro wrestler and he wrestled amature for20yrs... so is far more amature wrestler then wwe... same goes for lesnar.
I'll be looking for lashleys fight on youtube, i honestly love pro wrestling for what it is and i think its great when pro wrestlers do well in mma..
I cant wait for ufc 100 and im really hoping lesnar (6'2.5 in my opinion) walks right through mir..
Mamun.. if you'd said the ultimate warrior would have destroyed everyone in MMA and UFC i would agree fully on that one!!!

The Ben says,
"saying a military guy would beat an mma guy is exactly the same as saying that a navy seal could beat michael phelps in a swimming race."
It's really more like saying a Navy Seal could beat Micheal Phelps in a swimming race that included 50 pounds of gear, during the night, in an unknown environment with waves, wind, rain and currents. And they would. Within a closed swimming pool, in perfect conditions with roped off lanes, with a cute little skull cap and speedo Phelps would win every time. Same thing with battle field survival between a someone like a Green Beret/Delta Force and a pro-MMA fighter. The pro MMA fighter trains for perfect conditions, it's what their training regimen primarily revolves around.
MAMUN said on 16/May/09
My friend " The Ben " ! Can you explain to me why WWF superstars Kick MMA
fighters ASS every time they stwitch over to the other side ? Boby Lashly
just won his third fight in just 24 seconds and his record is 3-0 ? His
opponents were making fun of pro wrestling and found out the hard way it
wasn't in their best interest to do so ? If Kane went to the other side
it will only take him 12 seconds to knock-out some body he didn't like !

Sid,I studied Shotokan Karate for 5 years,granted I dont train now but I competed in 17 tournaments through my late teens and early 20's of semi and full contact. I've trained and been graded by Andy Sherry,Frank Brennan (World Full Contact Champion,who was and probably still is a complete tosser) and the late great Enoeda,I've dabbled in other styles too. Yet again you assume and are wrong,why do you feel the need to keep reminding people of what you can do? You obviously lack confidence in the real world. Big muscles equals lots of toxin build up equals you dont last long. I'm sure Kane can hit hard but he will be slow and he will telegraph horribly.
4-way debate,loving it.
The Ben said on 16/May/09
saying a military guy would beat an mma guy is exactly the same as saying that a navy seal could beat michael phelps in a swimming race.
Or win an olympic marathon race..
Its like saying they could shoot better then an olympic standard shooter..
Im sure there are some amazing specially trained drivers in the forces but they wouldn't beat a pro racing driver..
Proffesional athletes train for one purpose all day every day..
Military people have to train for so many aspects that its not possible for them to give the time to be as good as a pro athlets....
when they leave the forces then with the right training maybe they could be competitive against a ufc fighter....
And i believe kane is 6'8 tops..
Yaspaa said on 16/May/09
Sid I didn't mention anything about a lightweight fighting a super heavyweight,as usual you make things up to suit your own argument,at least DM's theory is intelligent enough to be taken seriously.
I'm Sid,"Errr,I've got massive arms,err,I hit some dude,err I'm a fighter,err Your pretty."
Yaspaa said on 16/May/09
You cant use that as an example,cro cop is a kicker who got beat by a larger kicker. Randy Couture has been fighting in the UFC for a long time and he has won plenty and lost plenty where the rules have stayed the same. A navy seal wouldn't go toe to toe,he'd hide and slice his throught.
Sid, power is generated by speed not a bench press,heavy bench pressing makes you slow and many times can you spell throat incorrectly. Speaking of cro cop,a couple of kicks to the legs and kane would again go down.

Yasspa You have no experience in hand to hand combat, I do.. I seen lots of it in my days and now..74 thats 35 years of doing it, I train on the bag, workout..I'm still training..workout next day, other day punch the bag...Point is I been fighting for years..you have no fighting experience...Thats why Martial arts and boxing has weight classes, so they almost can be equal or a tad better in there own divison.duh..150 pound guy fighting a 300 pound guy, 300 pound guy will out box him, and power...duh..weight clases man...you need to put thinking cap on..you have no experiences..Any fighter knows there weight classes, or else it would be a mis match...You have no experienc yet you talk abou fighting.. person who works out, wouldn't have a strong punch, person who has lots strength would have a strong punch such as myself..I emblesh my 500 like 490 not exact 500 bench press for my power to work on the streets and the bag, 490 is my max, I don't know if I'll ever do 500, I don't always do my max, I usually workout with 300 to 350 more reps, to build..I would use 490 on building mass, which I did my last mass faze last week. Now it's cutting up faze more reps... hey summers coming up, I would even use 250 in june for proper form..to build defintion...then hit the bag for a hour, then do my kata, then weapons..then skip rope, then bike...punch my speed bag, double end bag..I'm still training, but by myself, thats all I need, you got the stuff, why not use it...Workout gives you the strength you need to punch or kick.. Kane makes a fist..he hits you with full force using his hips, which im sure he knows how to, cause he trained in japan, your a goner.
Da Man said on 15/May/09
Yaspaa, it's not crazy at all. Look at how Cro Cop did in the UFC, look at how Liddell did in Pride, there's only MINOR differences from Pride to UFC. Don't kid yourself into thinking these guys don't hardcore within the context of venue rules. Now eliminate ALL rules, like some other fighting styles do, and the pro-MMA fighter is at a disadvantage. I am a HUGE MMA fan, but I can see past bias.
Da Man said on 15/May/09
The Ben, the 1st UFC event participants would get destroyed by today's fighters *in the octagon*! That's been proven time and time again. Professional MMA has morphed into something quite a bit more specialized since those days. Specialized for the rules and environment of the octagon!
You aren't getting what I am saying, dude. No single style is going to beat a modern, professional MMA fighter consistently within the context *of the octagon*. The thing is, the real world doesn't always include an octagon, 4 oz gloves, a mouthpiece, a cut guy, a clock, rounds, a referee, judges, rules, etc. and that's why other fighting styles retain relevance in the *real world*. Put an pro MMA fighter out in the woods with a Navy Seal, Israeli special Forces, tell them to kill the other using whatever means necessary, and my money would be on the military guy. If you're smart, yours would be too. :)

Da Man I hit a person in a street fight, it's easy all people do is punch in street fights, or it goes to the ground, you hit a knife hand to the troat, or your thumb to his troat is possible, i did it, theres plethora of things that isn't possible to do, you make it sound like it's impossible, well thats just negative thinking...I am fighter, I fight on the streets, All though I'm not fighting in the ring no more, my knees are shot, i still got my fists, no 1 rule never kick in street fights. You need have postive thinking, if I can hit the troat, anyone can..I throw a elbow, or knife hand, or thumb to the troat, they would suspect anything.
sid said on 15/May/09
Yaspaa You don't know nothing about fighting I do, I been training since 75 longer then you have man, person who is strong, would have a strong punch, I hit my little brother lol don't have a little sister. When I got into a scrap, I use that power I had, from working out and training for years in the martial arts, to knock this guy out. I trained people who are strong, they never had any experience.. they had strong punches...Kane would pan out well..he makes a fist..he hits you.. your a goner..that doesn't mean he is a good fighter. Kane would use his strenth to out power his opponents....as much as possible..I been training for 35 years... since I was a kid. I know what I'm saying. No your full of it, I seen fights miss matched, 150 pound guy doesn't have enough power to knock out Kane in square in the jaw, thats why they have weight classes yaspaa any real fighter would know that..they fight in there own weight classes.. You don't know diddly about fighting yaspaa I do.. remember weight classes...why would a light weight fight a super heavy weight, its missed matched, power is differnt, I fought a guy who is around 150 or more, he was out boxed and out powered I seen that too many times to know it..power does matter...you can't assume diddly if u dont have any experience. your the load of crap. boy.
Yaspaa said on 15/May/09
But there are no rules on the street so they wouldn't have to adapt to a new set of rules, they would just go for it,it's not called ultimate fighting for nothing. They have to deprogram to be able to fight on the street,thats just crazy,what you are saying is that an MMA fighter is no good outside the octagon,do you really think that an MMA guy is going to be worried about kicking a downed opponent in the head if he feels his safety is in danger,in the octagon they keep punching and kicking until the ref pulls them off,on the streets there are no refs. Anyway as usual this is going nowhere,catch you on more pleasant terms on the Welling page.
