People think he looks like fat old man, but you have to touch him, his body is like a rock. -Khabib Nurmagomedov
Boys got big bones and that's a fact!
Sounds kinda gay
@@cardbored_ , every coctact sport is gay, if you think about it this way
@@strangerman4848 true it's only gay if you make it gay
@@1quality140 no it's only gay if you touch balls.
And people forget, he became double champ at age 39, yes 39 years old.
Dam right most ppl wouldn't able to beat younger fighters.
LMAOOOO Spoken like a true casual fan. Was he TECHNICALLY a double champ? Yeah, but he was also gifted the belt after he lost to Jones and Jones had to relinquish the belt. I'm not disrespecting his legacy because he's definitely one of the greats BUT the "champ champ" nonsense was definitely overplayed.
@@retiredtidepodeater3339 thats how it works man... if you cheat u get stripped off of the belt or medals in case of olympics competitions.
@@retiredtidepodeater3339 but Jones couldn't stay off roids so yeah, he was the legit champ
@@retiredtidepodeater3339 you're the casual, you cheat your win doesn't count and you lose the belt
I'd never expect a guy that big and strong to have such intense cardio. Olympic level wrestling cardio is no joke.
I believe he was named team captain for the Olympic wrestling team at one point which shows just how respected he was.
Yep both him and Cain Velasquez were great
Wrestlers have crazy cardio
@@Richard-Espanol yup. Sucks that the weight cut was so rough that it caused kidney failure.
And a head kick the speed of light
Unironically one of the best, kindest personalities in MMA, and at the same time a complete animal in the cage.
I know it's actually kind of a trip. Especially when you realize he was destroying guy's who were much taller with longer reaches and some just seemed overall bigger than DC. Even tho people see DC as this big teddy bear, he really was sort of a honey badger in the cage.
Cormier is the Charles Barkley of UFC. Undersized, strong as a bull, fearless and ruthless in the cage, funny and likable outside. Ended up being a Great commentator now too
That is actually a really good comparison as well charles barkley had to deal with a goat that stopped him from getting all the recognition he deserved in Michael jordan , i guess that would be like Jon jones for cormier
Great comparison. I've always looked at Cormier as the guy that has an incomparable ability to win. He's not like an Anderson Silva or McGregor or Roy Jones Jr with flash or style but he seems to have it all. I used to hate watching him win but later realized just how good he is at almost everything! (no crazy kicks mind you) He just can win and I have so much respect for him because he's humble but has achieved so much. I love the guy.
As I watch this video at around 17:30 he hits the tall guy with a head kick! I stand corrected. The guy can do it ALL!!!!!
Nah bruh DC got multiple chips
@@koberowland9798 but unlike Barkley got championships
Feels like people forget how good, and just naturally gifted DC is, he really is a super athlete, so dont let the belly fool you.
He’s 41 years old and is still competing at the highest level of the sport, an Olympian, and incredibly explosive for his height and weight. Freak athlete
I think everyone knows dc is the real deal
juan liebenberg just shows you how good dc & stipe are 41 & 37 the 2 best all time
Fedor any one!
Fedor was done at 33
@@michaeltabor9596 stipe no..dont considered him same level as DC
.stipe is good but he also has attributes going for him .
DC,GSP,Jon jones,khabib considered top of the top in my eyes even that anoying triple c can be considered also there
Talkin about belly, butterbean esch is another clear example of how a big belly guy can fight.
The thing I like about DC wrestling is it was never boring. He had the striking capabilities on the feet that made the set ups for takedowns fun to watch.
Plus he wasn't just grinding dudes down. It was always a powerful slam or a sweep. Dude just liked dealing damage and going for finishes
I love watching DC wrestle
He's actually 5'9'' not 5'11''. Can you believe he was heavy weight champion? Truly amazing.
Yeah many don't believe it but he is actually a hair shorter Than Khabib
@@solaire_of_the_east nah khabib is not 5'10 ...khabib is 5'9 ....5'10 was his billed height just like dc billed was 5'11
@Baljeet222 yes you are right Khabib is 5'9". One more thing I want to ask you is why there exists a discrepancy between billed and actual heights. Why don't Ufc and other combat sports state the actual height of their fighters as their billed heights?
5ft 9 3/4 177cm at least. He normally hunched, he could be a full 5,10 if he stand tall.
@@solaire_of_the_east It’s to make them seem larger than life . Early UFC heavyweights we’re short so they wanted to make them appear bigger for example Shane Carwin was billied at 6’5 and randy couture at 6’2 even though both are way shorter than Brock who is 6’2 it’s part of their promotion big guys vs big guys after that it just became a trend for all weight classes
lets all take a minute to remember that DC once held TWO belts simultaneously and his only losses are to a guy who was popped for steroids 3 times.
And stipe twice lol
@brasi luca ya those stipe fights dc wasn't in his prime

Thanks for the time stamps
Daniel is such a motivation for me, as a short guy at 5”7 I’ve always struggled getting motivated for martial arts as I believed I wouldn’t be good enough. But seeing him dominate taller guys gives me hope.
cormier isnt short though, hes 6 foot
what really matters is weight, if youre heavier than someone, youre likely stronger than them.
@@NidokingOtsutsuki 5”10 but yeh Ik, just it does bother me sometimes is all.
your too short for heavyweight
@@cbennett11 not really but okay ✅
Imagine not knowing who Daniel Cormier is and picking a street fight with him.
The way he’d slam your ass on concrete 😳😱😮
Upside down against your will
Or even worse, five of you..
Trying to fight a random chubby suburban dad with ugly ears and you wake up on a breathing machine
Last thing you hear is :Jon Jones! Get your act together boy I’m coming for you after this pedestrian
Just imagine picking a street fight with anyone, on a bus, in an ally, on the beach or anywhere and they've got a weapon. Don't be stupid seen many get fucking wrecked like that. One of them got his head curb stomped after I just finished work to walk in front of that. Never worth it.
that sequence when dc lifts hendo in the air and drops him on his back then trips him again should be the definition of bullying
With all respect to Hendo but the look in his eyes at that moment are that of a gazelle about to be eaten.
Bro, Hendo was probably like tf ?!?!?
Vince Cruz Im 90kg and I was thrown like that once in my gym when I went against a dude who is +125kg... it is indeed “the fuck?” But it didn’t really hurt, you just lose your orientation, and thinking wth happened, where am I. 😁
@@V-95K it doesn't hurt that much unless you land on you're head ,but it can also knock the wind out of you depending how hard they drop you and that can leave you vulnerable for a sub or a tko
@@unkownboi67is_unavailable62 what happened when you wrote that?
23:23 That slam was incredible. I'm a big wrestling fan and seeing hard slams in a UFC fight to me is amazing. I knew D. C. Had the crazy slams and the hands but didn't know he had kicks like that. He was doing low to high kicks super fast in a lot of the highlights. D.C. is def one of my favs in UFC and he is such a cool guy on commentary 🙂
English is not my mother languaje... but DC is one of my favs on commentary too... and one of my top 5 all time fighters
11:23 even the judges were shocked by the way he dodged that knee after falling 😳
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣yo that was fucking slick!
It was so fast if your not looking close you might think it connected
everyone is talking about his skills his boxing etc. but the real monster is his insane CARDIO!
Imo, you probably needed to put *insane* in caps too if not instead of only CARDIO. 😄
@@hiphophrc lmaooooo, emphasis police
100 percent.
All those AKA guys have crazy cardio
He gassed out against jones, arguably twice, and gassed out against Stipe. Don’t count on his cardio anymore bud. He’s fat and 45 years old, with a broken hand and a broken back to boot.
Damn, Cormier was throwing question mark kicks, switch kicks and spinning back kicks against Nelson lol.
Must be that flow state you hear about. Crazy seeing DC do that stuff 😂. He was having total fun in there.
He weigh in at 225 lbs in that fight (if I’m not mistaken). Nowadays he fights at 250+ lbs, so he can’t do that fancy stuff.
That spinning back kick was ugly lol
He threw one only favourite sequences in UFC 3 outside leg kick to left switch kick to right question mark kick.
He ruined nelson with striking 😯
Look at those low - high kick combos. How fast he's pulling them off. In my opinion that's one of the best things in whole MMA.
That almost made me sad for the other guy, he was like training 🤣, instead of fighting, pulling combinations and just advancing to their future.
I've always known DC was good, I guess I never really paid attention to just how good he was. Now that he no longer fights it's opened my eyes to just how good of a fighter he was. He dominated some legends in the ring and destroyed others. I can't imagine just how good he was if he started doing MMA even ten years earlier than he started. Not to mention he's got a great personality and seems pretty humble.
i really didnt expect cormier to throw those kicks so well for a man his size and his speed crazy for a heavyweight
Fr man, he’s got some really nice kicks
His striking is so underrated
I expected the eyepokes tho
Sid Sidney you make 0 sense
@Sid Sidney You okay?
He should be in jail for what he did to Hendo. That was a full assault
Hendo deserved worse, for the H-bomb.
@frip lip DC is at least 10kgs heavier than Hendo here
Gave him the rock bottom!
@@MrWackozacko I know he looks big but there is no way DC is 22 pounds heavier than hendo in the fight.
I know Henderson was a LHW belt holder but he's essentially a middleweight and Cormier a heavyweight. Dan was also 43 at the time and had tons of mileage. Respect to Henderson.
lol how many people can say theyve lifted Jon jones, josh barnett, gus, rumble, stipe over their head in a fight and slammed em lmao
Let's not forget threw Dan Freaking Henderson around like a man vs a kid just starting wrestling practice trying to prove a point.
@@chadme714 that was one of the best ones!! lol
werdum got it too lol
His kicks for a heavy weight are out of this world. Not only accurate but seriously powerful.
They looked fast and fluid too, extremely impressive for fighters in his weight classes.
Man, DC was fast and agile in his early career. I really notice how much more stiffer he was in the final 2-3 years. Back injuries are no joke
Years of dominating larger foes will do that to anyone
also he had back surgery after lewis fight and didn't use wrestling in final fight vs stipe
Prime vs past-prime right there.
Truth
Yeah, back injuries are life altering. I feel like the DC that beat the brakes off of Barnett would have beat Stipe into a coma in those last two fights.
I love hearing the other coaches yelling “dont wrestle him dont wrestle him!!” As a wrestler i LOVE that
Right?
Like, whenever I competed in No Gi competitions, I lean heavily on my wrestling experience.
It's always fun to hear the other guys coach yell "He's a wrestler! Watch for those takedowns!"
They always expect us to shoot and never expect upperbody takedowns lol.
I don't wrestle, but I can only imagine clinching with a really good wrestler, or getting thrown by Olympic wrestlers 😁, though I seen somewhere that even tribal Africans have really good wrestlers. American style is like a single/double leg takedowns with clinching and shoots. Africa style is more of clinching and ankle control. The only wrestling I did was when I was around 12 or 13 fighting my uncles for the WWE belt (which was just a normal belt 😁)
@@justanotherlaid-backdude5297 i think wrestling is just something that everywhere did at some point. The greeks did it but they did throws, america gave it shots and other leg things. It's like sumo wrestling for japan, kinda. It was a test of strength between two dudes but now its more technical
That last comment “with all due respect it’s like a man and a boy” 😂🤣
@@justanotherlaid-backdude5297 look at Senegalese wrestling, try to find a documentary about a French kick-boxer going there to train in wrestling. Very fascinating
DC is easily one of the greatest MMA fighters ever just off the fact that this man was damn near 40 and was out there mauling dudes and making them look like old men. And arguably the only wrestler I've seen better than Khabib in pure skill.
khabib got outwrestled by Gleison Tibau
@@NidokingOtsutsuki Lmao OK casual.
Wresteling is so amazing when perfected. Easily one of the most dominant fighters the UFC has ever seen, the man literally doesn't lose rounds. Great video, appreciate you highlighting all his wresteling like this!
It’s honestly terrifying knowing a guy as non threatening as DC physically appears can utterly manhandle guys he is the definition of just pure functional strength
Non threatening? Dudes traps and shoulders are toned and he's got s chest too
@@evanguzman8740 that's true, but someone like myself who doesn't know what to look for would think DC looks like a friendly teddy bear 😅
Yes.....he does not look like someone who is very intimidating. He's Scary
@@tacefairy fortunately if you ever came across DC on the streets he would probably be extremely humble and polite. its guys like mcgregor you gotta watch out for. hot heads
@@Perceus996 the difference is, Mcgregor can beat as many people as he wants, but he”ll not necessarily succeed at doing so all the time, whilst DC would possibly fuck up around %85-90 of the world’s population, the dudes a heavyweight, and he’s one of the best heavyweights in all combat sports history. Now that’s a guy you should definitely be scared of.
Easy to forget just how good DC was . Excellent boxer and unmatched wrestler. He will be missed in the octagon.
I consider myself lucky to have watched him on his journey up through Strike Force and into the UFC. One of my all-time favorites
And just enough kicks to keep it all mixed up
I used to say DC was the perfect fighter in his early days.
@@luisadrianlara5561 He was very unlucky to be in the same generation as J.Jones.
@@nomadicsoul34 I actually think DC was better overall fast early in his career. He could wrestle, box well, had more stamina early in his career. Just Jones had more physical advantages height and length. But i thought dc was actually winning the rematch. But he kept making that defensive mistake. Jones camp studied and trained to capitalize on that. when dc moves his head he leans laterally to the same side too often and gets predictable. That's why the body kick feint got him to lean into the head kick.
I love watching his leg trips. My coach in Japan when I was in the Navy was an old man with HUGE strength and he always said "use your legs like your hands". What an animal DC is wow.
Just watched this, what an excellent video and really well put together, thanks!
DC should be in jail for child abuse with the way he handled Henderson.
3:56 that rat tail sweat lol
Sorry...hijacking your thread
BRUHHH Imagine getting slammed like that? That shit was wild
You
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
His Endurance was insane to be able to execute so many take downs in a fight and Still have the strength to throw relentless punches.
awkward ass punches at that but the impact when them shits land 😂🤦🏿♂️. He’d put a typical civilian to sleep. Hard to even see where his punches come from
Yes , exactly. That's what he lost when he got older. When he mostly became a kickboxer. Couldn't do all that wrestling chaining things together.
bro heavyweights arent supposed to move like that. its just not fair.
That’s why I don’t rate Stipes wins over him
Vicious punches
A really great guy and one of the greatest fighters. Outstanding grappling and striking abilities. But above all, a super decent human being
Excellent work you put here. No stupid music, great editing, especially replaying those great techniques. Keep it up🍺
I honestly say Daniel Cormier Is one of the most balanced fighters ever ..for a wrestler he can bang .. and I love the way he's not afraid of anyone.
really strong and amazing amazing cardio.
And very goods kicks for a big guy.
You say stupid shit then
There's a reason for a time, he was called "black Fedor"... Lots of similarities
11:43 OMG, so that's how they make that sound 10 seconds prior to the end of the round. My knowledge is now complete.
omg, I had no clue! Now I need to find out if the light stays on in the fridge when you shut it.
@@gunswordfist Of course they don't. A little penguin turns them off when you close the door.
In the UFC, they use plastic clappers with handles.
What's next? Was this all we've lived for? All that's left is to suffer; for nothing....
@@michaelstout7955 just waiting for the comforting embrace of death I guess
For his height and reach what DC accomplished at LHW and HW is incredible. Such a special athelete.
This video is pure gold, keep it up Liam
When Dan Henderson was running away after the body slam then he gets tripped, I died laughing
Hendo was literally running away scared.
At that time, they had just banned Drs prescription Testosterone therapy and Hendo had been on T for 2-3 years and he quit cold turkey a few weeks before the fight. Hendo showed up like 7 pounds below the weight limit with the testosterone levels of a 12 year old girl and it showed.
@@jambo_jackbelly really? damn.
Hendo made a habit of backing away scared of people, or being ready to be out grappled and tapped out once he realized he might soon go to sleep.
Similar to the way jones did Cormier. Tripped his legs while he was rocked ended up on top for some gnp
Cormier picked up Rumble Johnson, carried him around like a child and slammed him. A 200+ pound man that only minutes earlier launched him of the canvas with a punch. Cormier was something else man.
Thanks for making such a good video. Keep it up👍🏼
His pre ufc days at HW were his best. Super athletic able to change levels, kick and his variation of take downs magnificent. A super complete pitbull against much bigger men. Similar weight but his lack of height/reach was made up for with strength stamina, fast twitch movement, wrestling foundation. Close distance quick with ducks leading to takedown. Not quite sure why he slowed down so much, could be back injury could be overeating? But super impressive style
It was the back injuries and age fam.
They used to call him black Fedor 😂😂😂
@@jms7265that's... not the term they used, but it's close enough
Good complement, both DC and Fedor were tough as nails with a ton of skill and heart to back it up, they are both Legends
23:21 Disrespect Level: 1000%
Bruh that legit felt like abuse
@@downfromthereeefters that sequence was offensive. For someone to do that to an OLYMPIAN and one of the toughest human beings in history in dan Henderson is just offensive.
70% of Henderson fans never forgave DC.. TILL THIS DAY
He made Hendo look like it was his first time fighting lol. No disrespect to him but that just goes to show how much of an advantage high level grappling gives you in a fight.
@@shaheena.3803 thats the crazy thing is that Hendo was a phenomenal wrestler himself. And an Olympian himself if I'm not mistaken. Just goes to show how much of a beast Cormier is. And also Hendo kind of strayed away from his wrestling roots when he was fighting

That’s badass
Very nice catch. From that angle, the flash made it look like one of those flashes from Tekken when a hit lands.
if that guy had a zoom lens he probably got the sickest shot
holy shit the last one is insane. he didn't give him an inch of breathing room, it's like watching an anaconda slowly strangle its prey.
As good as Dan Henderson was, he was too old here and much lighter as well. Not that fair of a matchup. But it's still insane to see.
I remember watching all of these fights live. This is awesome :)
My favorite highlights to watch of any fighter. Can't scroll by without watchinh
Cormier found himself in that difficult territory where he was too big to make 205 without struggling and smaller than most top heavyweights. In one division he was always depleted and in the other he was almost always fighting guys bigger than himself. He could do it because he's exceptional, but if he'd been made a little smaller or a little bigger he'd likely have crushed that division even more than he did. He's the modern day Randy Couture though Couture made 205 much more comfortably through a strict diet. Those really high level wrestlers and their ability to beat fighters who're bigger than themselves really is something.
the max weight difference between LHW and HW being 60 pounds is ridiculous, imo HW should be capped at 235
@@EmirAssassin And the really big guys can be almost 300 going into camp.
Lesnar always has to shed about 20-40lbs to get down to 265 and he's not even huge for the division.
It's such a giant span from 205 to Lesnar and I think his fight with Couture gave people a good look at how silly it looks.
@@EmoEmu in an ideal world there should be a Super HW division for 235-265 but I highly doubt that will ever happen in the UFC
@@EmirAssassin I don't think so either. The talents would get spread out too much. There's not a lot of 265 guys who can move.
Modern Day Randy Couture? DC was a double champ while simultaneously competing at 2 different weight classes. His only losses are against Jones, and Stipe who are both fighters that can make a legitimate top 5 goat conversation. Even if you were to only take account for his heavyweight success his resume is still way better than Couture’s.
Wrestlers lead the game.
Him and khabib are on the next level
Agree. Most fights and on the mat so solid wrestling is key.
@Devin Burkett Good point, but as a former black belt in Judo I guess any discipline with focus on ground game is just as good. I mean look at Khabib, Makhacev, Covington, DC and now Chimaev are grapplers.
@Devin Burkett Yes! Take care.
Wrestlers boring the game
For me its the trips / leg sweeps that just blows my mind. Everything he did was great in this highlight but seeing the what his OTHER foot is doing during a take down is very illuminating. Like the knee-bump he did on Henderson. Fking crazy high level.
My favourite heavyweight of all times, these types of videos are heavnsent
11:20 that was probably the most openly illegal knee I've ever seen. it's absolutely insane Cormier caught that, ducked & flew on top in under a second. That knee could have done some serious damage.

Roy is so hard to finish, but couldn't fight back. Fuck it let's try some shit i saw in a movie lol
Bro everyone talks about tony and Holloway’s chin , but Roy Nelson’s chin was on another level getting hit with bombs , I truly believe he is the only man in his prime who could eat a full ngannou punch
Remember when he ate a full derrick lewis bomb? My jaw literally dropped to the floor. I couldn't even believe it. Derrick lewis hit Roy with a full blown Haymakerlol
Prime mark hunt???
A prime Mark Hunt
Roy Nelson is a different breed, he'd be that 60yo viking still leading the charge on raids!
If Ngannou landed a hit like the one Mark Hunt walked off against Roy Nelson on, Ngannou would sleep him.
As a big dude in training Cormier is like my hero. His wrestling is amazing but the fact he's a well rounded heavyweight is what makes him great.
great editing mate ✌️
Jesus Christ, he is bigger, heavier, scarier and even more dominant than Khabib. If Khabib is the Eagle then DC is surely the grizzly bear.
He's a monster. Just like Khabib, with 50 pounds more muscle.
Not more dominant. Everything else is true.
Bigger and heavier? Yes. Scarier and more dominant? Nope. DC has been great and is definitely the best HW/LHW wrestler of his time but he lost to Jones and Stipe multiple times so he's been shown to be beatable. Whereas Khabib has never lost and barely been challenged in the octagon despite everyone knowing his gameplan every fight. That's next level scary/dominant.
@@aggressivelyamicable5987 khabib retired at barely 32years. DC was a double champ at 39 despite having back injuries and his best years behind him
@@energygod2410 Khabib is great, but he didnt obtain most of those wins in ufc. If he went up in weight I doubt he will remain undefeated!
Look at the energy Cormier had in his late 30's he was a monster still. By the time he fought Jones he was already too old and slowing down.
And he still gave jones a run for his money
It's true. That was sad.
Don't forget Jones never gave Cormier a fair fight since he was always on PEDs when they fought
The DC that fought Barnett is the GOAT heavyweight. Idc what anyone says. The boxing. The meanness. The stamina. And obv the wrestling. Unmatched.
Yeah I agree but even though if Jones wasn’t on PED he would still beat Cormier Jones is too tactical and intelligent on how he fights
Was a bloody honor to watch the man fight and become great.
Hands down the most underrated MMA channel 👏👏
I will always root for Cormier. He looks just like my father lmao. Copies of each other xd
I’ve never understood why people dislike Cormier. He’s a genuine athlete, clean and hard working and never hidden from any challenge
W Baldwin People just want a reason to dislike him. there have been far more significant eye poke examples
@W Baldwin i 100% agree with you there.
Also him dont recognize stipe wins, it was my fault, stipe did nothing good
Maybe because DC looks like an out of shape uncle so the fatties can't really distance themselves with the old "genetically gifted" claims.. And the in shape one's are left feeling like total losers either way.. That's the explanation that's all I've got!
@@anupam6192 is a bad loser and he do the jon jones tecquine eye pokes
Maybe khabib is the same?
Until him lose or use some illegal blows like dc we cant know
Daniel is a God fearing good man ! And a true warrior ! Thank you for the entertainment my friend!
thank You ...subscribed
and thanks to D
Dc vs. Fedor in their primes would've been one of the most fun fights in history
Fedor vs Ngannou
@Jesse Fromal probably not
@Jesse Fromal u couldn't knock out Fedor with a sledgehammer in his prime
Heck ya
@@shopenrapu1872 lol
just imagine if DC had won his last fight with jones and stipe, he'd become the GOAT of MMA, period.
Thats a fair statement that I can agree to.
It's like saying "imagine if Mcgregor won all his fights, he would become the goat." I think that your statement pointless and dumb
Facts!💯
@@daddyleno9216 the difference is that jones was on peds both times
@@daddyleno9216 nah mcgregor is not as great as dc
Excellent takedowns from DC👌👌
Freaking great video people !!!
Gotta give Roy a lot of respect for lasting the whole fight getting his ass kicked the whole time.
Absolute beast of a man. He didnt even looked that damaged after that hell of a beating.
@@stephenr80 he proved that judging someone's face after the fight isn't always reliable. some guys just don't get marked or bleed easily, Roy took so many heavy blows in the head and he just looked like he sparred in a 16oz gloves.
That Rumble Overhand right would have starched 90% if the Roster
Yea DC got a chin chin.
95% of the roster if you including the women 😁😁😁, kidding
If the floor wasnt there l, that overhand right wouldve made DC completely flip
@@johnychrist2559 , and DC still shrugged it off, like if it was nothing.
Dude got a chin!
imagine how hard the punch must of been. when i was watching it live. i thought cormier had died and the fight was over. But just got up quicker than the undertaker and handled his business.
I respect DC's spine, if anyone else lift fellow heavyweights like that, they won't last in MMA and will end up with back or lower spine injury
I mean he did injure his back and require multiple spine surgies lol, so yeah. That's what happens.
Good content for a legendary fighter
Moral of the story: it's NOT about body shape, it's about THE SKILL
His body shape is 250 pounds Goliath
I think that's part of the likability of DC, Fedor, and Big Country.
@@frontsquats for fat 40 + year Olds
beneath that layer of fat is pure rock hard dense ass muscle
He has that weight so it’s hard to get up for his opponents once he has taken them down
His movement on the ground is insane. Like he been walking on all fours through out his life.
Bear crawls are a part of wrestling training
His body literally couldn’t be better for wrestling ahha
@@tylerwardle2475 khabib body better
This was so satisfying to watch.
never realized how dominate DC was. i love that he was a wrestler. good shit man.
I remember watching the dc vs Henderson fight thinking "this must be what being mauled by a bear feels like"
Stupid, bears claw and bite you to shreds
Adri Alvarez dumb casual
Али Гасанов guess you don’t speak sarcasm
sergio peralta Yeah I don’t speak pointless stupid sarcasm, you’re right
@@YuNgHaSaN You just speak pointless.
23:44 DC hit Dan with the "Come here young man." lol !!!
Hahaha
This is a real beast and very sympatic person!
One of my favorite fighters ever.. he was one of the best wrestlers grapplers ever and a lot of the time he would still throw down and dirty boxing .. like street fighting basically but he would mix everything up so well and then his insane cardio for his size.. and mind u he would just throw around dudes that are triple his size and he was at an older age winning championships .. just amazing .. i miss his walkout entrance and his fights badly he was that good
you can say what you want but there is a certain beauty in the style DC, Habib and Cain have with the grinding down of the opponent
You forgot Ben Askren
TrojanSasori ohhhh just slept him
TrojanSasori true...but I like the way the AKA guys mix their striking in more than bens style...not that he has no striking but it is more rudimentary than DCs for example
@@salfratteleslendenwirbelsa1657 his striking is garbage but like Khabib his grappling is that good that they don't need any striking to dominate a fight
@@trojansasori3526 he a bum
Never really realized how good dc is with his hands and feet 😳
