- Ben Askren joins Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show to look back at his knockout loss to Jorge Masvidal at UFC 239 in Las Vegas. Askren says he doesn’t have memory of the knockout, but has watched it. Askren believes he would’ve earned a title shot with a win, but doesn’t think that Masvidal will get one vs. Kamaru Usman despite the flying knee knockout.

He made $210,000 in just 5 seconds. And he got to sleep on the job. Absolute legend.
Hahahhahaahha
haha
210k I thought it would be at least a mill
"And he got to sleep on the job" I lost it
D. Reh he must have a good fucking manager lmaoo
“Apparently I set a record of some sort” that’s the glass-half-full response of the year.
Lol
Lol lol
i thought i misheard...wow
Actually Jorge set the Record
Gotta respect him for joking about it lol
Speaking in Ben's defense, he took two shots from Masvidal and didn't even flinch. That's something.
☝️
😂😂😂😂
Nina He was out cold😂
two *VERY NECESSARY* shots
@@ayeconnerr4600 SUPER NECESSARY!
This dude gets knocked out faster than anyone in the history of the ufc and then comes on an interview eating food and says apparently I set a record 😂😂😂
New found respect ✊🏻
chase Bishope hey man, hats off to him.
Alfred Rodriguez oh no my respect for him sky rocketed after that 😂
@@chasebishope4079 5 seconds
chase Bishope it’s the fight game and he knows it. Masvidal got lucky, it happens sometimes.
Yup. Studd.
Ben (while chuckling): "I got knocked out in 5 sec, I don't deserve a rematch" - classiest loss EVER!! Respect!
What’s he supposed to say after that shit?
of course hes gonna say that cause he rejected lawler rematch! what else could he say? u think thats classy smfh
wow how u think thats classy, hes scared about the rematch, some ppl get fooled way too easy
Goat Stature Well, a lot of fighters hide in a dark room or drink themselves into oblivion after a loss like that.
@@goatstature8263 stupid little Bitch he was being classy Fuck off casual
“Apparently I set a record of some sort” 😂😂😂
My reaction also! He says it so causally LOL
Go Ben or go home! 🤷🏻♂️🙈😂😂
Good thing he has no recollection of the event of which he speaks.
Retrospective such a great dude I don’t get how people don’t like him
Record's a record, who cares if it's the quickest loss in the ufc
10:51 to 10:53 is the exact moment he fully confronts and faces up to the loss and takes it on the chin. It hurts but he doesn't feel sorry for himself one bit. Love this guy
Love your channel bro,and also your observations are as good as usual
Love your channel and your observations, keep it up!
You are King.
Love your channel.
Love your channel so funny to see you pop up here
This is what a stoic mindset and healthy ego get ya.
Getting kod quicker than I can microwave my food?
magx01 how do you obtain that
If you look close he sorta looks like Marcus Aurelius
@Frank Whitewater No we get it...We just don't AGREE with it.
A stiopic mindset
"I dont deserve a rematch, he knocked me out in 5 seconds" this man owned this loss better than I could have anticipated. gave respect where it was due and had a sense of humor through it all. GREAT interview Ben.
Joshua Rodriguez didn't expect less. Just imagine if Masvidal had lost...dude Jorge would go down the spiral
He’s scared of a rematch. You can only avoid death so many times.
@@MilkoOfficialChannel haha very possible. Jorge is scary good though
@@malchills2527 Lmfao
@@malchills2527 considering he lost and needs to fight a lower ranked contender to get the masdival rematch at all
Like him, love him, hate him... whatever it is you gotta respect this dude for showing up and doing an interview after that loss.. That's a professional right there!
Nate Daugherty honestly yea I don’t like the dude but I don’t hate em . Be ups for Ben for doing this I honestly hope he comes back and makes it to a title fight 🤷♂️
Michael Corleone he only lost one fight
@Michael Corleone You're a bum
@Michael Corleone nobody. Respect for this guy
If that’s respect in your eyes especially after all the mcgregor wanna be trash talking your fucking diluted bud. Good luck in life bud now that’s respects hahaha fucking moron
I wasn't prepared to like this interview. I was expecting a lot of back tracking and excuses. But he owned up to it, and I really liked it.
Complete Pro! He made me genuinely feel like the fastest knockout in MMA history was no big thing.
😂😂😂
Not possible... That knockout was fire!
But it really honestly isn't for Ben, being on the receiving end of that is no fun but that's about it. It's a huge deal for Masvidal tho haha that was sick fr
it more like a knee to the head throughout time , cte
Lmfao
Ben: How to accept a loss with class and humility.
Ariel: How to ask the right questions and then let the guest answer fully without interruptions.
Good interview, two thumbs up gentlemen, respect.
Decent questions. He did ask him "How bad does this suck?" In about 6 different ways. Other than that awesome interview.
Mike A: how to comment.
Mandela's Cellmate I was thinking the same thing!
Ariel's the best.
@Borntwice RSD pt 2 what's up your ass your tampon?
He’s taking the loss better than anyone I’ve ever seen. That’s respectable.
🖕🏼
Tyler Gregory his tweet said it all. “Well that sucked” I think that was hilarious because I always laugh when people say that after misfortune. It’s just a funny way to handle/react to bad things.
True
Tyler Gregory you should check out Thompson interview at the hospital after getting knocked out by Pettis. Class act there too
Stephen Thompson handled it pretty well
This guy sounds down to earth and he’s super humble.
Hmm psychiatrists might start prescribing knees to the head.
Did you see him pre-fight?
bahahaha
good one😂🤣
Hahahahahahaha
To the neck
That knee to the head will humble you.
Thanks to Masvidal this guy got his brain fixed. Well come back to earth bro!
He is not fixed. Fighters are just putting up some shows that draws attention. The guy you see in this video is the real version in life.
Carlos Sierra 💯💯💯
@ Carlos Sierra, I’m not trying to be rude, but you probably shouldn’t post a negative comment of which is directed at someone if you didn’t/don’t that Welcome is ONE word. The whole “well come back to earth bro!” Killed your comment, did Masvidal Fix his brain on another planet? And if so are you asking Askren to come back to earth? 😂
@@gavinshay4568 Dude, you're overthinking the comment. Calm down Neil DeGrasse
@@gavinshay4568 lol get some subscribers u jelous lowlife
Damn... Respect for Askren went through the roof for coming out and taking the loss like its just part of the SPORT.
Respect ? Dude has no choice but the take the loss BIG LOL
He had no other choice but to be humble . 5 seconds
@M B u taking up for him 😂 soft ass boy 😂
Whats the other option?he got smashed-he cant really retaliate or make excuses.For me he is just doing the default thing in this scenario
takin the L like a boss... admirable. excited to see his next matchup and see him bounce back!
Wow. The way this guy handled this is amazing. Props Mr Askren

Absolutely, not too many ppl have that character/ trait, 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸
Yes he lost like a winner. Staying positive and not allowing a failure to keep him down. Hats off to the mouthy fucker lol
Glad he showed respect and admitted that was damn fine flying knee!
What is he supposed to say? Lol
@@agtrherhger484 He could of said a lot of things and decided to show mad respect and give credit where credit is due.
Never seen another fighter handle a loss with such class.
“I couldn’t have done it..” (The flying knee), that is some sportsmanship right there.
Timothy M if he won he would be gloating what else is he supposed to do be a sore loser and lose fans
@Pretentious Bear he was tough but fair
i disliked Masvidal celebration for sure... awful winner
As you said , he COULD be a sore loser and say that that was lucky and it would never happen in a different fight. But he didnt , not a single excuse , no weight cut , no back pain , nothing. So yeah its nice to see that kind of behaviour and i respect that. @@OhChroniqz
Askren talked shit and got what he deserved. Just like bisping vs hendo. These guys are professionals, and if Askren or Bisping wouldn't have talked so much shit they might have just been walk off KOd instead of the extra punches/flying hendo elbow.
I never liked Askren but damn I’ve got tremendous respect for how he is handling this loss.
Well a loss like that is pretty humbling, when before he would criticize other fighters and talk about how he should be in line for a title shot after one fight.
he's a humble dude. he only runs his mouth to guys to build hype for fights and get people to care. it works because there was more hype for his fight it seemed than the main event.
There are a lot of videos about how Ben got what he deserved because he was talking shit but all he ever said is that he thought he was better than him. Big win for Jeorge just wish the fight would have went longer.
@@elitemcstudios exactly
@@hexkwondo what's he supposed to do? Say, give that other guy the title shot, he deserves it more? What kind of stupid ass logic is that?
Next time you want a raise, go tell your manager that your co worker deserves the raise more than you, basically the same idea
It’s a post fight loss that really tells you who the fighter is. Ben has my utmost respect now.
I don't even like Ben, but he earned my respect, just for this honest interview if nothing else.
Same
Honestly the fact that he comes on the show right after the hardest knock out is something to be respected. He could've rejected the interview which 99% of fighters would do. He deserves respect! It's a fighting game anyone can lose its ok.
Ronda should learn a thing or two from this guy
Nah
@Brandon S take McGregor out of your list.. he is still making stories up about the Khabib fight.. look at this: czcams.com/video/hnnSW__ubzQ/video.html
Brandon S he deserves to get knocked out again
it was a hard and fastest KO, but it's not the hardest KO. It just happen too quick for anyone to really measure anything.
"I Don't deserve Rematch I was knock down in 5 second!" Most humble thing i ever heard from MMA Fighter!
Because hes afraid its gona happen again
@Frank Whitewater 😂 what dumb fuck?
@Frank Whitewater all i have to say is five seconds..
@@yesmcyes5604 in actual knockout time it was 2.5 seconds
@@yesmcyes5604 that's from the bell to the knee. He was knocked out instantly. The seconds it took for him to land 2 punches and herb to pull him off are bs. 2 seconds!!!
This man was undefeated for 10 years. Took his loss like a champion. Whether he gets the UFC belt or not he has the mind, heart & humility of a champion. Kudos Ben!
someone should learn handling and accepting failure from Ben Askren. respect
DARREN TILL. Fooking wanker should take some notes
Mad respect to Askren. Takes balls to come on this show after all that was said and especially what happened
Justin your mom takes balls too.
Justin Howard
Balls? the guy is full of himself
FOH
Didn't like him before this but my opinion has 100% changed
yeah
*ALL THAT WAS SAID(WTF)😤*
HE WAS THE ONE TALKING SMACK, BET HE DON'T TALK THE BIG GAME NO MORE🤔 GOT HIS TRAP SHUT. HE NEVER FACED TRUE COMPETITION
"What do i do about it? Cry? Ask for a rematch? I don't deserve a rematch i got KO'd in 5 seconds."
I was rooting for Masvidal because i grew up with him. But i got respect for Ben!
SteadyChasin MoneyBags keep away from Florida then cuz he embodies our mindset
SteadyChasin MoneyBags your name is "money bags" safe to say you're the douche. why's he a douche becuase he dont play all that shit talking?
@Bill Kill 💯💯💯
@@stupidvideosgalore4211 hes very disrespectful
Same.
On how Ben Askren handled this super tough and heart breaking loss, you gotta love him. Much respect from this dude.
You got to love someone who makes a mockery of MMA.
His first fight was more embarrassing than this fight.
there's a reason why he handles it so well he's the only person to know good and well that he NEVER belonged in the UFC
@@juanitastew2495 Aren't you a bit too hard on him? He's a good fighter and that's a fact. He's just probably not a top 10 UFC fighter but I'm sure he would have done well a bit lower , fighting top 20 UFC fighters or something. However he did not want that. He's on the end of his career and doesn't have the time to start climbing up the stairs starting too low... so he smart talked his way higher where he ended up getting his wings burned.
@@faliakuna8162 after reading your comment I may have been a little too harsh on him. I stand corrected.
Joshua Beldad well what else is he gonna do? Get a rematch with Masvidal? Ben doesn’t want that lol
if only he'd handled himself with integrity before he got starched in such a humiliating way
Love his message to the parents about letting kids experience struggle and heartache, it definitely builds your character. Respect to you Ben!
I respect Askren... I thought he would have been making excuses & bitching, he took the L like a man & isnt trying to hide his face, mad respect to Ben Askren
Let's not glorify him. He spoke a lot of shit and got banged. The man has nothing to say because he got humbled!
Lol, kinda hard to make any excuses for that loss.
Architeuthis Dux Honestly don’t think he cares about what random faceless losers on the internet think about him lol
He thinks he deserves what he got 😂 yall are missing the point hes trying to build himself and his fights up. Not his fault when someone gets so butthurt about it, he was also praising him after as do I. Was a great knockout
Architeuthis Dux glorification? No, not at all, he just earned some respect in my book, that’s all.
He acted the same way when he lost wrestling matches. People need to take notes on how to handle a loss like this guy.
Never understood why people disliked him
@@blist8329 because he talked shit
@@jakoomd8640 ok sure that's understandable, but if people say ben askren ain't truthful, that's a crock of shit.
This is good, but the way Wonderboy held himself after his KO loss is something else 😂
Clip That Shit Conor McGregor cough
Ben - you have truly inspired me, much more than you ever could have by remaining undefeated. I can't believe how well you've handled this situation. Makes me want to be a better person. Thank you!!!
This man knows that there’s more to life than the outcome of a fight. Glad that knockout happened to a vet who could deal with the embarrassment and move on.
Yeah he has a business, wrestling academies,, a wife. Lots going on. Rousey had nothing but mma.
@fabrizzio monsalve Apparently, she wasn't ready for WWE either, where fans are probably even worse than MMA fans. She barely could stand fans booing her, and she literally walked away in tears the first time the fans turned on her (Survivor Series 2018), retired after Becky Lynch proved to be too popular even for her and was the only woman to pin her. And, just as an added bonus insult, she retired and tried to get pregnant to start a family only for Becky to beat her to the punch in a pregnancy too. So yes. She really only had MMA and her perfect record as something in her life (she hasn't really done that much that we know, and moved to a farm with her husband). Askren had his family, his wrestling academy, other businesses, still had one more fight after Masvidal served him some humble pie, and the mental strength to take a humiliating loss in stride.
I would still be crying curled into a ball, in my room with my lights out not wanting to talk or see anyone if I'd had gotten knocked out like he did. This Dude is something else, laughing it off through the entire interview... RESPECT!
Mad Respect
member Ronda rousey aha how long did she hide out for?? I really can't remember
someone wins and someone loses...thats how it is in any sport.
@TheMrEpicsounds everyone has a breaking point.
This is called the Ronda Rousey.
"Apparently I set a record of some sort " 😂😂😂😂 I might actually like this guy
He didn't tho.. Jorge set the record...Ben was the victim of that record...I still think this dude is an asshole
@@LONDON80 he's just a big troll
@@LONDON80 Its called a joke you fucking idiot lmao.
lol so funny XD
Yea a record for the fastest big mouth knock down.
Massive respect for Ben after watching this interview. Can't help but like a guy who takes a loss like this so well.
This completely turned my feelings about this guy around. Class act and not many would do an interview like this right after. He's so level headed, humble and down to earth about it.
I've gained a lot of respect for Ben after this interview, owning up with no excuses. Excellent example for anyone watching thank you sir
A World Under A Spell bens better than Ronda then
How only after this interview? Ben always was and is a class acts gentlemen, apart from very mild trash talk, which is not new in MMA at all.
Greg Martinot
Classy
Rematch and kill him
What excuse can he give. That he should've thrown an overhand? LMAO Jorge said "this man is a specialist at putting his face in a mans crotch" read him like an open book
there is no way in hell he can make an excuse.
Askren was knocked out cold for 10 minutes. Helwani: "Did you suffer a concussion??"
Yeah, he did. He was out cold, and even claims he doesn't remember being knocked out. Together that's a definition concussion.

What is he supposed to do? Continue being an annoying douche after getting KOed like that? He got served an XXL humble pie and lost his hubris and fell down to earth, I'd bet you 1000 euros that if he had won he would have been talking MAD shit about Jorge, he wasn't like this after the Robbie fight was he? But now he has to act all nice and giving no excuses to why he lost because there is no excuse his only option right now is to be humble and you fell for this act, he's a douche and a shittalker and karma finally sent his braincells to the moon. Thank you Cuban Jesus!

No he lost the fight in 5 sec. So actually he didnt even fight...
The guy is mentally tough as fucking nails. I think everybody else would've gone hiding after that loss, but this guys doesn't even take it that hard after all.
weres the boom roasted

Handled it better than Ronda Rousey
Naw, he's still calling him "george", its Jorge, Ben you corn bread fuck!
hahaha
@@kriswatson5381 Mike brown calls him George too. So really isn't a big deal.
so he deserves praise just because he didnt handle the loss like ronda? lmao

New respect after this interview. Pretty classy after an embarrassing KO loss
“Sometimes life doesn’t go your way...you don’t have to like it but you have to accept it.”
Amazing attitude.
S M Or maybe sometimes some ppl r just overrated af & dont wanna admit they're actually just avg compared to the elites
S M It’s a lot easier than eating crow.
S M getting embarrassed tends to humble a man.
Isaac Monson Yup. Exactly. The fact Jorge could throw a counter strike and know how to win in 5 seconds shows how predictable Askren’s skill set is.
@Joe Mendez salty ass dude
He is doing better than expected.
Bisping said he was messed up for weeks after Hendo sent him to Valhalla.
Dustin Farnum 😂
😂😂
you dont know how he feels on the inside. some people are just good at hiding emotions.
Johnny Cash nice? All he does it talk shit. As for bisping, steroids make a big difference.
I wanna be like Jorge when I grow up 👊
I think Ben's trash talk is very light-hearted stuff, don't get why some people relish so much in his loss. He obviously has a great personality.
I wasn’t a fan of Ben, but after this fight, I think Ben is all heart!! His attitude towards life is inspiring. Dude is a real champion. He will be back.
I really hoped Askren got knocked out. But he has my respect for talking about it and not bitching it away.
Don Papito didn’t make excuses and says he deserves all the hate he’s getting because he talked up his fight and lost
Most people would make excuses or disappear
Unlike crybaby DC
Yea He’s a cool guy and 1 loss ain’t nothing , he will bounce back.
Rounda rousey can learn something from this guy instead of hiding after she lost and never had to face the media
He got cracked 2 days ago and he’s doing this interview! Like him or not, that’s cool as hell.

This guy got humbled and took that loss like a champ, and even said was not luck , gave madsvidal credit where it was totally due, much respect
Dude reminds me of Alex Honnold. Great respect for people who truly appreciate their craft and look at everything logically rather than with emotion.
Much respect for the humbleness and honesty. Still glad he got knocked out lol but definitely have respect I didnt have earlier for Askren.
"Did you suffer a concussion?" 😒
No Ariel he just took a power nap😑

When someone is comfortable with who they are, they act like this! Pure class!
Come on man, dont get fooled by this facade. The man is defeated inside. No matter how much he tries to hide it.
Correct. Not like that insecure Masvidal
First time to see his side of things, and I gotta say, this loss made us see this nice guy behind those ignorant/trash talking fighter that he was.
Respect!
Respect for u Ben askren.. U are a legend and u will come back hard on this division
Wasnt a Ben fan before. But I am now. The way this man handles defeat is inspiring.

Gotta love this guy. He sees the bright side of things.
Great comeback to show your face and talk in a humble manner.
Most fighters are psychologically broken after a HUGE embarrassing loss like this. Just shows Ben's attitude and perseverance. Good on him, get better Ben!
Olympic level skills and mindset, no way you could make it that far without it.
He really doesn't seem bothered by it at all, just seems like he knows what happened and accepted it and is looking to move forward. He acknowledges how he's been "antagonizing people for a decade" lmao
he lost a lot during his wrestling career
He needs to get better stand up. He literally can't fight for shit. He got carried by tomato cans and as soon as he fought someone good he gets exposed badly. Robbie lit him up and that stoppage was a bad call, Masvidal turned him stiff in 5 seconds. He has literally the worst stand up in UFC including the Women's division
everyones going to lose a fight alot of people get knocked out happens to EVERYONE. bens got nothing to be ashamed about he got caught thats it that all. masvidal got pretty lucky with that shot if they fight again i guarentee it will be a dog figh gets dragged on. people are retarded and act like they never lose at life hahaha these idiots are trying to laugh at ben because they think masvidal is the shit because hes "street" and his fans all wear wife beaters and think they are tough shit because they once sold a dimebag and they smoke weed everyday LOOOOL dumb shits!
6 figures for 5 seconds. Sounds like a typical night in Vegas.
Haha i like how accurate this is, not just in MMA
Jorge humbled this bum
He made 3,500 for that KO lmao
he made $3500
Bruh 😂
That was a awesome interview
This dude has an awesome outlook on the sport, the competition aspect, great attitude about what he sees as an embarrassing loss and not whining about it or questioning it. He takes on whoever is put before him, he talks smack before a fight to entertain, he goes in and gives it his best shot and accepts the outcome regardless of a win or a loss. Reminds me a lot of the champ Chael Sonnen.

What about dillashaw
You're still clit riding Ronda and she's not even in the UFC anymore.

Compare his attitude after losing vs Ronda Rouseys.
Polar opposites, shows you what they’re made of
Ronda is a joke.. She doesn't only do FAKE wrestling for money but also can guarantee she'll win..

Kick ass show Ariel!! I loved watching Ben eat his words(and a knee) but after seeing this i definitely respect him a lot more. Salute
This guy managed to pull out a win from a huge loss. What a champ
I actually like this guys attitude my respect for him just went up after this
He got to after talkin shit 😂
Hes still pretty articulate and well spoken after the ko so it looks like having intelligence lessens the impact of a ko.
enrique palomarez he didn’t even talk that much shit, yall acting like he talks shit like mcgregor or something. He talks pretty nice for an MMA fighter
@@enriquepalomarez5921 dnt matter ......
if you were knocked out like that yo ass would disappear n tryda kill yo self so move around with that bullshit much respect to this man whole new respect for ben huge fan now
How can ppl hate the guy after this interview? To be this honest and humble after a loss like that? He seems like a pretty good guy.
lets not praise him for acting how everybody should. just because he didnt handle it as poorly as ronda doesnt make him special
Irishman checkin in I feel like he puts on a show to promote his fights, deep down he seems like a good guy.
Of course he got humbled from the way he got ko'ed
If not he wont get any credentials going forward
Agreed I respect how he is handling it, I do feel he needs to work on his striking if he wants to have more success, Jorge read him and knew once he sprinted Ben would shoot for a double
Most hype MMA fighters are. Conor, Askren, Adesanya; all quite real when things go wrong. It's that positivity thing, even in defeat, that Chael talks about. People like upbeat people.
"He got some serious air time on it" haha respect
Ariel Hawani"Did you suffer a Concussion?" 🤦♂️🤣🤣
"i dont deserve a rematch, i got knocked out in 5 seconds" what a guy \o/
Exactly what Masvidal was talking about....
Don't get it twisted. He doesn't want the rematch. I wouldn't either 😂
VSVP J Exactly lmaooo
VSVP J your comment is 🗑
@@zachspicer9929 get over it. He's scared, been scared. Thats why he ducked his head to escape "the 3 piece" instead got... you know what he got.

Good to see Ben’s doing okay. Pretty amazing actually, I’d probably be concussed for a month.
I'd probably be dead after that flying knee.
I’d most definitely have brain damage after that knee.
Ben may be awake but his soul is lost forever czcams.com/video/ctT-OZqsB4A/video.html
@@motorcityoctane6713 I just subbed to that channel, his his ghosted self is floating around space somewhere 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
KY AM well yeah you’re a bum compare to the Greek god Askren
Wasn’t a fan, but the way he has handled the ko has earned my respect! Class act
Much respect to this man for having the balls to speak out after such a horrible event that happened to him! Even though he feels he doesn’t deserve a second chance, it takes even bigger balls to work harder and train harder for the future and correct his mistakes! I’m sure Jorge wouldn’t oppose to giving him another shot at all! I can definitely see a Masvidal vs Askren 2 making a lot of money in the future! Which would push Jorge to accept the fight! Anywho, Good luck to you (Askren) in the future my friend! Much respect to you for speaking out and showing some humbleness.
‘Apparantly I set a record of some sort’ LEGEND he’s hilarious
and his pay/hour went up due to short fight..lol
good sense of humore
He is not
this guy is indomitable
Compare Ronda "wanting to kill herself" after shit talking and loss to Holly and this man and then you see that dude is actually real 🤛
I don't think he did alot of shit talking really !!
They was a lot more media publicity globally with Ronda Rousey compared to this fight but yh still fully agree Ben took it so well
Paul Fahy Yeah man it’s been grossly over exaggerated what was said. He did well to promote it really it was the most anticipated fight on the card.
He still on suicide watch bruh. Don’t be fooled
askren would have kill him
I have to admit I couldn’t stand this guy before this interview but now I am a fan. Much respect I hope he comes back stronger.
Respect for showing up.
Before this video, I didn't care for Ben Askren at all. After watching this interview, he seems like a really good guy who likes to play the villain. Class act. I wish him the best.
LMAO I used to hate him before this video.now I like him
Cus he jus got humbled as much as anyone can be... If u talked a bunch of shit to everyoneee then get knocked out in record fashion u would probably kiss as much ass as possible too lmao
He's not kissing ass. He hasn't changed at all. Same Ben askren I've always watched.
By "villain" you mean annoying bitch boy
Coincidence it happened after eating three servings of humble pie? Thats what happens when you fuck up a talker, they learn some manners.
It takes a lot of balls to go to an interview so soon after a loss. Especially the way he lost. He talks shit but he’s a classy dude. Stay funky Ben
Apparantly this guy had sex with ben askren: czcams.com/video/vImYSXFJkmY/video.html
He's not a classy dude, he's a fucking shithead that got put in his place. Maybe he will become a classy dude but only time will tell. This whole "he talks shit but" mindset has got to go. It's gone way beyond just hyping a fight to just being a fucking douchbag. He's a douche before fights and he's been a douche in post fights. As far as I'm concerned I wish every one of the over the top wwe style jackasses would get beaten to within an inch of their life as many times as it takes for them to grow the fuck up.
dont think he even said anything too bad, like you could tell he didnt mean it and he was saying it so he could get the big fights. Like he didnt cross a line where he talked about family or religion etc.
Andrew Yoder I understand your point. But as he said whether he talks shit or not your opponent goes in there to beat you to a pulp no matter what. All I’m saying is, for him to come in an interview so soon after being embarrassed shows a lot.
I don’t know him very much but he impressed me the way he’s handling everything afterwards. Thumbs up !
Respect Askren for your attitude. Hope you do well in the future.
