Minowa is definitely a showman and a fighter. Those drop kicks really riled the crowd.
Butterbean is a total sportsman. Real class act.
Good ole Bean. 5'9 tall, 5'9 wide. Like a giant Rubix Cube
This made my day 👍😂
Or a giant bean
Mr 5 by 5
@@thefriendlyorcnextdoor93461:55
5"11 not 5"9 lol
The first drop kick was so good. Dude lands so gracefully and doesn’t leave himself open for long.
lands back on his feet.
Cant believe Minoa was able to not only survibe getting pancaked but then turned the tables and HELD BB DOWN. Insane stamina and will power. That entire time he had to keep the squeeze on him and he outlasted him.
That's because the fight was fixed like many other pride fights back in the day
Severely overweight people (a la butterbean) have a hard time rolling over. If you are large enough you can keep them down with good technique. Then it's just a matter of draining their stamina which happens faster the larger the body is.
Because all you need to do is to train and get good at your sport
If butter bean learned some bjj I think he would have beaten Minos
@@justaneditygangstar If memory serves, he was only given a couple months to train it max, I think a single month. All things considered, his wrestling is decent, but I think it would take a really long time to correctly use all that weight as an advantage, rather than just immediately becoming exhausted.
One thing I really want to emphasize is after the match was over, it looked like Minowa wanted to help Butterbean up. There was a true sense of sportsmanship here between these two and I really admire that. It seems to be lost in the modern trash-talking era of professional fighting.
Basically, Martial Arts got bastardized by the west. You don’t see trash behavior at One Championship matches.
Wouldn't have been me. Butterbean never should've been in fighting.
They have honor we don’t
It's not lost, it's still a stupid cliche that people care about like it means so much lol. You can help someone up for selfish reasons (like so people like you comment on it?). It's like every athlete thanking God, it's mostly window dressings now
Butterbean is like a beached whale once his down he's finished
Two drop kicks in a row. Butterbean reacted less than if a fly was on his face. Never ceases to amaze me watching these old Butterbean battles.
Butter bean was a tank
He bounced right off him lol
3:38 thank me later
The second kick didn't seem to connect at all though.
@@dreamman5588 He's using his gas defense
I’ve never seen as many mouth guards go flying in highlights as I’ve seen with butterbean… Dude is a tank
Years ago I met Butterbean and Irish Mickey Ward they were promoting a fight in our area. I'll tell you this when Butterbean shook my hand it disappeared in those giant mitts like I was a little kid. Man he's huge.
And there ain't a chin in the world that could withstand a clean over hand right or left from Bean. The guy could KO a train in his prime.
Great respect for Minowa! How many men have balls to face an opponent much big than you. It’s David vs Goliath and you know the rest of the story.
He played in open weight.
Butterbean only has KO power thou get him down and he's finished
@@donjohn2695 Well if he is on top of you, he still has a chance. Remember 400lbs on top of you is a lot.
Иудейские сказки зачем сюда приплетать, все больше людей прозревают от религиозного морока
That Dropkick was absolutely outstanding. Wow.
It didn't work though
@@Shitty796 I knew somebody would say that, he’s talking about the kick, not it’s effect
Beautiful worked pro wrestling dropkick 😁
@@Shitty796 It sure did work. The first one was very powerful. It was a mistake going for a second, but epic fight none the less.
Yeah
Jujitsu is absolutely insane, the fact its even physically possible to get out from under a guy 200 pounds above you, this guy could wrestle dirt 6 foot in the grave and wriggle his way on top like wtf
His base is wrestling
@@ghostttriddderwho's base?
@@chagas8822there are literally olny 2 people there and 1 of them is a boxer
@@chagas8822and to not be a prick the other guy who's not butterbean
@@ghostttriddder Ikuhisa Minowa's martial arts are judo and bjj. he never learned about combat wrestling. he only participates in Professional wrestling where it's all staged and not real.
Minowa was one of those dudes that just demonstrates the phrase, "It's a mindset."
I love how Butterbean cut ✂️ his trunks like a muay thai fighter incase he had to throw some kicks or sprawl lol, Butterbean was the man.
I’d watch modern UFC if they had more stuff like this
UFC has multiple all-time greats at the moment, but a circus fight would be the one to make you watch more often... But I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't watch these free weight freakshows lmao
Butter Bean looked like an Austin Powers villain falling on that little fella
I never knew Dana White fought in pride. He's way thinner these days!
That was back when a DNA specialist told him he had 3 months to live.
Those cycles of winstrol are really working well lol
jaja
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yes he did before he went to Jenny Craig
Oh geez... two bald guys... hah. Great observation man...
I miss butterbean, he is such a nice guy. He did MMA for the fans.
You miss someone you prob never met lol
@@Thai_nerd69 you dont miss any dead celebrities? you dont need to meet Muhammad ali to miss him.
His son is cool too
the fans $$$$$$$$$$$$$
Money in the old
Minowa man was the real pro wrestler as he mentioned and did please spectators not just win boringly. ミノワマンの試合は面白かったな。試合後のパフォーマンスも好きだった。
Did he please spectators fighting himself, or somebody else? Please remind me. 🙄
@@chilliecheesecake he did open the fight with 2 dropkicks, Butterbean had a little to say about the course of the rest of the fight...
Minowa's thought process:
"my dropkick just failed,
what to do next?
another one!"
😆
I can kinda understand the logic though, nobody expects 2 dropkicks in a row
Great match. Even though he lost, I still have great respect for Eric Esch.
Now he's a 'has bean'
@@erepsekahs and what are you
@@huntertrum3658 Cumon Hunti baby....you go first...What are you? Don't be shy now.
@@erepsekahs he did more than you ever will
@@bidenpoopants130 Kay....you didn't answer my question. So you're a nothing.
Loved Butterbean you knew when he got in the ring win or lose you would be entertained.....a legend no doubt thanks for the video
Minowa and Butterbean both have their strengths and weaknesses. This time, Minowa came out on top. My hat is off to both of these guys. They are great in their own way, and I enjoy watching either of them fight.
Thank you from Japanese fan of Minowa.
Do you guys haven't watched any of the old Pride fights, they were a long time ago, check them out. Some of the most legendary fights of all time happen in those championships.
Wow, didn't think it would go out like that. In the end, and no dishonor, it's best to tap than lose a elbow. Great and entertaining fight! Butterbean is always entertaining and didn't disappoint here. Minowa is someone i learned of from this, that 2nd drop kick aside, he was amazing.
Fact is Butterbean was a great sport. Instead of relying on his knockout boxing prowess, he relied more on his less-confident ground game.
Rrr
Tap it before you snap it
Bean probably tapped a bit early cuz he was aware that right arm was his meal ticket.
butterbean is so iconic. what a guy
Damn, that was awesome….one mistake and it’s butter bean destruction
One mistake = bean time
It's beanin time
Way to go Minowa, thank you,great fight.
Super, un engagement sans faille et un respect mutuel des 2 combattants du début à la fin.
Total respect pour eux.
この体重差でグラウンドで勝てるのは尊敬
It's amazing for a man this size, strength and with speed.
It's amazing how he constantly manages to lose.
True.
Butterbean didn't even wait for his arm to be fully straight. He knew as soon as he lost his hand grip that it was over.
Minowa is my fave fighter of all time. The man's a hero, he would take a fight with a steamroller and he'd try to cartwheel kick it just to give the people what they want. The dude just never gives up.
Thank you for uploading this
"He just bounced off" 😆 🤣 😂
Butterbean always been a favorite of mine great boxer to MMA...i don't think any other pro boxer went into MMA
Awesome sportsmanship at the end right after the submission!
Butterbean is a legend very impressive how athletic he was for being a big boy.
like the sumo
@@mark6302 yeah definitely
He was THE big boy
its all biology
lmao you called Butterbean athletic.
Yessss Straight up old Anicent Days No Rules and Noooooooooooooo Rounds,
Imagine Butterbean doing a dropkicj on Minowa !
Butterbean would drop to the floor with all that weight.🤣
Butterbean's defense against those kicks was
nothing short of amazing.
cute hug at the end
Minowa knew Butterbean was powerful, it's why he directly went for drop kicks, his most powerful strike.
That thumbnail is crazy
Anyone saying pro wrestling is fake deserves a dropkick to the face.
Butterbean is a legit fighter! I always enjoy when he's fighting!!
Unbelievable !!! Overcoming that huge weight advantage of Butterbean.
My fave part was when the ref patted the guys Weiner in the beginning! So gingerly!
I honestly was doubting he had any defense on the ground but that was the correct defense for an arm bar….butterbean 👍🏻
これ中学か高校の時に見ててこの時はMMAとかよく分からないし体重差ない試合しょっちゅうで見慣れてたけど、今見たらえげつないしすごい映像だね。。
VTは本来無差別
ドロップキック、なぜかこれだけは結構きれいにできるのですが、
大きな相手にはほとんど効かないのですね😅😅😅
浴びせ蹴り も得意ですが、簡単に叩き落とされるかもしれませんね。。。
大相撲みたいな体重差だよね
A GREAT FIGHT OF STRENGTH 💪, BIG RESPECT FOR BOTH MEN.
🧐💯🤩🤔🇬🇧🗣️👍
The Butter man is from my home state of ALABAMA very proud of The Butter Bean he was a awesome boxer but not a UFC fighter he was a heavyweight champion boxer
Butterbean parrying that dropkick like he was playing Street Fighter 3: Third Strike
I don't believe.... 😮😮
Minowa is the best👍💯
Minowa is a brave man, I love the Japanese they are a proud people. From Canada!
Minowa Ground Game are God tier that's why he do crazy things he doesn't care if gets Takedown.
Godzilla rushing in then being instantly knocked out by Butterbean had me in tears.
0:16 you guys see that, the ref was moving abit mad 😂
I was already saying “WTF?” to myself when the ref started tapping their heads, it got even stranger when he started cupping their balls.
Meu Tempos da minha adolescência
It proves their is a difference between just boxing and wrestling.
Ground fighting is a whole different ballgame for even the toughest of fighters
Butterbean =GOAT
Minowa=impeccable ground game.
Upmost respect to both warriors
and the fans always win when Butterbean fights. 👍
Those drop kicks were crazy 😂
Butterbean may have lost here, but he is one tough dude. He was a great fighter.
Waw ! Minowa is amazing person.
This is what I call good television
KING OF THE THREE ROUNDER! That was his strength.
4:27
ah yes,the small guy can beat the little guy
Gotta say I’m glad the bean tried mma win or lose it was intertaining
"The more you hit him the more you keep him in the fight"
Crazy...
After all that, a hug of respect from the Bean.🎉
Superb ! What a good fight !
Butterbean has the greatest name in the history of sports
That thumbnail is wild.
Fantastic!
Commentator: “I don’t want a guy like Butter Bean on top of me”. No sh*t Sherlock 😂.
Pride never die
Minowaman was always a entertaining fight!
Butterbean is a living legend. Minowa accomplished one hell of a feat.
記憶の600倍バタービーンが寝技うまくてビックリして泣いちゃった
Nice Flying Kick. Very Impressive.
Few men in the world can claim they were crushed by the moon.
Those flying kicks are insane 😅
I loved BB he's a legend
Impressive win over the big guy. Butter bean's a beast.
Butterbean would have been a classic casting for Kingpin😀
it's like a fight between seal vs. walrus
In Dying Light 2 those well executed drop kicks would have sent Butterbean into next week but he swatted both of them off damn
the balls on him to pass guard, literally
Молодчик японяга
Butterbean was like: This aint streetfighter. Lol
Only thing inthink of seeing old fights from Pride Fc is that its Sadly UFC can bring the magic Pride FC once had.
Love the big man
Incredible. And I’m a Butterbean fan… but an absolutely incredible win.
Butterbean is built to survive a car accident
For the lack of damage inflicted to either fighter, this might as well have been a strict grappling match.
Butter bean got full force dropkicked in the face, he just has an insane chin. Second one clearly missed but first one hit clean
Thats the dumbest comment i have ever read about mma
@@anonymoose2474🤓☝️ he technically blocked it didn't hit his chin but I guess his hand hit his chin
Freeze frame it. One hand "blocked" one foot, the other is directly on his eye socket/forehead. And that kind of "block" isn't how you block a kick, so it wouldn't even matter, but regardless, it is literally center mass of his face unblocked@@vegetablackpotato4700
When BB faced a professional, the outcome wasn’t in doubt.
Good commentary. At 4:08 Butterbean looks like he's getting gassed.
Congratulations Minowa.
He knows he cannot strangle the man with no neck so he tries to surprise him.
