This man is 41 and going for MMA debut. No matter at what level, I truly respect that. Good luck Brian.
With endurance, and a TINY bit of technique... He's potentially a MASSIVE draw .. If you try to wrestle him, it'll be like wrapping ones arms around a big HOT greasy sausage lol ohh gawd ..
It's never too late to get into MMA. I'm just now learning that myself after kicking my own butt on not starting sooner
@JaredGenesis777 started way erlier tho
Seriously. I'm rooting for him.
@JaredGenesis777yea but they been in the game since their early 20’s lol he’s starting at 41 big difference
Imagine deciding to try MMA and finding out you're gonna face Brian Shaw. ☠️☠️☠️
Unfortunately I think Martyn Ford has more experience in fighting, although he's far from a pro.
It’s a good think I’m under his weight by 100x lol
He's fighting his pals, I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a joke
Propably easy fight. No cardio, no speed, no technique
Haha
Brian's a real student of anything he puts his hand to. You can see he cares and listens to everything the coaches say.
No way brother we may see Brian and Eddy going at it ? Holy shit this is epic ! Hope nobody gets seriously injured, these guys are so strong and competitive.
Finding it hard to see Eddie get past Mitch. Feel like Mitch is just such a natural athlete, younger, more mobile and the strongest . Hopefully Eddies boxing background helps him out.
Be surprised if Eddie shows up
@@freedomforspongebobMitch ain't even training. Eddie will knock him out in round 1.
@@hg_10sm68mitch is just in there for the meme
@@hg_10sm68take in mind that’s what everyone said about Thor orginally lol
Watching strongmen/bodybuilders fight isn't usually my thing, but Brian is a great student and you can already see how effectively he is using his strength in those grapples. Good luck big man!
He is someone who definitely commits 100%. I'm honestly stoked for this!
Still gives me chills watching. Thinking Brian is gonna connect some. Doesn't need to be a lot. He's also gonna get hit by another big dude. It's crazy.
Just like Eddie and Thor fighting. Their punches looked like slow motion but they were doing damage. In this case, smaller gloves. I think Brian will shine most in his wrestling though.
Ford isn’t a small guy either it’s gonna be crazy
Remember shaw took a medicine ball to the face , who does that and laughs it off . If he goes beserk we are in for a new universe
Bob Sapp thats all
@@Just_Me187 In MMA? My money is still on Shaw.
much love Brian, you and Eddie stay safe!
Man, Brian’s really putting work into it. What a champion mindset.
Derek is a massive athletic human being... Its crazy how small Brian makes him look lol. Really cool to see Brian taking it seriously & putting in the work needed.
I’m not surprised. If Brian says his mind on something, he takes it as serious as any professional would. I’m sure there is so much other stuff behind the camera that we are not allowed to see.
@@youtubeconnollyfamilyInteresting how a lot of these strongmen have that same mindset like Eddie Hall and Brian Shaw. I see a lot of that in Larry Wheels also, from trying different avenues and pushing yourself to the limit. I think it shows the connection between working out and pushing your brain to the limit and how that can impact going towards any goal.
I know this is most likely not going to happen, but it would be cool to see Brian get some training with Francis, that man can casually pick up Shaquille O'neal over his head from one leg, so it would be cool to see just how Brians explosive power and strength compares
@@bulletproof1581it doesn’t compare at all to Francis
@@bulletproof1581francis could beat brayn shaw with one arm lil bro theres a difference to these things
his ability to over power in grapples will be massive! looking forward to watching him fight!!
Dude, I just really hope it happens. I am very worried though because outside of us here on the CZcams channel, there is zero promotion for it. you think something like this would be pretty big. Still, we have heard nothing at all and it’s only a month away.
Uhm, technically true if he can break before lock out since most holds take full 1-2 sec before it's locked but not all of em. Probably best to use his own weight against him and off his balance, doable but yeah just don't get punched or held got it's YOUZ vs a BEAR pretty much and sure the bear doesn't have much technique but the power and violence alone is enough so if Shaw is going in MMA he should go in hard with full intent to hurt people but then again exhibition match so no need to go that serious.
He weighs 400 fuckin pounds wdym?😭😭 of course he's gonna be good at grappling
Cardio is crap
wont matter when he's up against an actual mma fighter which is lucky for him because he'd lose 10/10 off technique alone. which is why the way he's doing it is smart and a good entry but against ford as is first competitor huge props to shaw and wish him the best.
Brian’s grip is so strong, once he gets a hold, I doubt anyone will ever get away.
how would you know? has he gripped yo ass lately
Honestly watching Brian’s video with Frank Mir taught me more about MMA grappling than my 6 months at my local academy where I was the biggest guy in the gym
Brian i cant wait to see u dominate and reach your potential man. i love u man such a humble dude
Wow, I was actually really surprised with how good you did and how much you have learned so far 🎉
Love your videos, and your career as a strong man. Cannot wait to see you fight in this new career path!
This so cool, it is awesome to see you doing this. Will be watching to catch these videos!! 🤙🤙
Let’s all learn from Brian Shaw. I’m stepping out of my comfort zone of powerlifting and just signed up for a Sunday league baseball league. Not comparable to mma, but it’s still exiting to try to get good at something else!
That's brave man. Good
Have an awesome time. I do strongman and powerlifting and mens league baseball is a blast. Forces me to keep some level of athleticism.
Good for you man. I hope you have fun experiencing new things is the spice of life!
Go for it my man, baseball has always been a love of my life and hearing someone else start to experience it is awesome! Have a great time
I'm not a social person, I do a shit ton of hiking. I've joined a hiking club after 22 years of hiking by myself. It's gonna be nerve wracking. 😂😂
Rooting for ya!!! I’ve trained for years. I think some old school power moves are right up your alley!!! Using one of your biggest strengths , your grip, I Think The Kimora would be a golden technique for you🤙
I love training footage like this. It doesn't need much editing, it doesn't need music over it or any effects added. Just show people striving to coordinate their body and mind to master new skills.
We should give these guys 15 min rest between rounds ! ACTION 🔥
Nah in-between rounds they have rounds of the other fight
Not a bad idea tbh. They are big boys and it's very common to see heavy weights puffing and panting and slow in round 2
@@Benlikesstuff These guys are so much bigger and also dont know how to conserve their energy for a fight (this isnt something you can really learn in the amount of time they are going to train). It will be hands on knees city in about 2 min. guaranteed.
Yeah I'd defo like to see bigger breaks, better action
It good to see that Brian is taking this seriously. his training morale is impressive. It reminds me of how Hafthor took on boxing, only maybe even more so. He is definitely hitting faster than Hafthor did in the start. But he is suffering from one weakness that he shares with Hafthor. Both seems utterly afraid of going all in. Afraid to seriously hurt their opponent. But then again, that may be a good thing, considering the absolutely frightening strength those two have.
I agree, but I think it will matter just as much as it did in the Eddie-Thor fight. They’re just too massive and professional to let anything slip.
Brian is also doing mma, not boxing
For sure. Hopefully we’ll get a good clean fight. No one needs their career ended or lives changed forever by a wild injury
if you're talking about the sparring footage you've seen from him then you should know that in the modern day almost all sparring is like that, no need to hurt your partner, just go light and practice technique. If you hit someone going slow then you know you'll hit them going full force.
I love Brian so humble and such a generous person I wish him all the best I'll be cheering with my family for him ❤️
Thats awesome! Thank you for the update! I saw eddies list of fighters and have been waiting for your post. Ty ty!
I met you once a long time ago at the LA fit expo and can genuinely say you are one of the most humbling people I’ve ever met at an event like that. Wishing you the best of luck in your new venture 💪🏻
B shaw has put his body through it, but never ceases to amaze me. Kudos to him and the unlucky guy he's fighting.
What makes the other person unlucky? Because Shaw is big? Martial arts is a lot more than just somebody being big, it's about skills.
Good luck to anybody getting into it including myself.
I don't see Brian winning his fight. He said he's facing Martyn Ford. I think Ford will beat him pretty bad.
he gonna have a heart attack fo sho
he'll have a heart attack fo sho
Man you are so dedicated to giving us world class entertainment. I’m surprised Martyn is on the other end, he is absolutely no joke, savage kicks and a lot of training history but I don’t think he has much of a track record in a professional setting so it’s a good match up. Will likely through a bunch of kicks so be good to check those, otherwise hammer on big man, so excited!
I whole heartedly wish you the best of luck! You’re a beast and always will be ! Have always looked up to you. You’ve got this in the bag already bro!
In preparing to train with Brian, Derek was seen at the local park trying to hip toss a 100 year old oak tree. 😂
I love this 👏
I'm such a huge mma fan and strongman fan so this clash is like a dream. Keep posting content
Same here. I’m a huge MMA fan. Only thing that worries me is there has been no promotion for this whatsoever. I hope it happens.
@@youtubeconnollyfamily very peculiar
@@MC-ep8cu to me something like this is massive. Eddie versus Thor was promoted months in advance. Outside of Brian‘s CZcams channel I have heard nothing about this.
Are we gonna talk about Elephant in the room that is that fight isn't now happening since the promoters haven't paid any of the fighters involved, Eddie, Mitch, Brian, Martyn are not on the list of the fighters. John Wayne Parr has said stuff about it on his Instagram
All the best to you big fella! Good Luck!
What I love about you bro is that your humble , I wish you al the luck in the world brother in your mma journey
Really want to see you win the whole tournament Brian !
How on Earth are u and Eddie going to throw hands if u both get passed the first fights? You clearly love each other ❤❤❤❤
😢😢😢yes I totally agree with you 🙋🙋 their, like Thelma and Louise in male version. Besties an brothers......❤❤❤❤❤ I 🙋🙋🙋 want a best friend like Brian an Eddie..
Most likely won't happen. Love Brian but Martyn is way more advanced and has to be the favorite here by far. And honestly I'm betting on Mitch over Eddie as well
@@vlizermorgan5268 I likely agree tbh. My what if remains though, what if they do a third place fight?
Nah man pretty sure Eddie is the one person on the planet Brian wouldn't mind beating the shit out off
@@vlizermorgan5268 Isn't Martyn a bodybuilder and actor? He isn't a pro fighter.
Looking good Brian! Keep up the good work! I’m pulling for you to win the whole thing! 👊💪
Great idea, looking forward to it, big boys at play👏
I’ve never seen Brian act so aggressive, I’m impressed. He’s usually very timid and you can always see it but not anymore and I believe he talked about that when he was talking to Halfthor.
He can turn it up when needed
I just can’t imagine Brian and Eddie actually trying to hurt eachothrr
Awesome jouney Brian! Keep up the great work!
looking forward to watching these big fights
I dont understand why Mitch Hooper would do this. He is in his prime as the worlds strongest man. Looking forward to seeing if this happens.
Millions of dollars.
All about that money. Honestly he might be able to win on cardio alone. He is by far in the best shape
@@danday9697I get the money part. Other part doesnt make sense. He is a great athlete but mma is not something you should jump into on whim while also trying to be the best strongman. It takes time and 100% effort on MMA only. Pudzianowski was very bad in his first fights and at that point he had been training it for years.
@@MachinePalm ok and? Tank Abbott trained for decades and has 0 cardio. Mitch ran marathons
@@MachinePalm yep, and you think that kind of cardio just goes away?
Could you imagine if Brian learned how to kick properly? That is absolutely terrifying.
With those legs?! Dude terrifying
No more leg-days💀💀
imagine Brian getting an arm bar on... bye bye arm lol
Imagine Brian's knee on belly
true but with this size you can not be fast
This is awesome!!! I'm so pumped!!
Looking good Brian. I can see you've come a long way in a short time. Martyn is not gonna be ready when the time comes. Keep putting in that work !
I would love to see Brian practice some leg kicks, imagine the bone shattering force he could produce
dude his shins must be like blocks of iron lmao, would be scare to even check the kick
@@Clippership840Yeah don’t check it and your leg gets bruised into oblivion. Try to check it and he’ll probably sweep both your feet out from under you and you land on your head
Muscle mass doesn’t relate to actual bone density
@@fitnessffinessed Yes it does. Bones are the foundation for muscle attachment. In order for his muscles to be able to pull as hard as they do for him to lift and push the weights he can, his bones have to be strong enough to handle those forces. I can guarantee his bones are significantly denser than the average person’s snd still denser than the bones of the vast majority of professional fighters
@@alexanderren1097 yeahhh that’s not how partial training works at all nor how muscle growth works. He has muscle density, not some much actual bone density. Please learn the difference.
I'll be rooting for you all the way Brian. One bit of advice: no matter how much conditioning work you're doing, do more of it.
This is getting me excited!👍 Makes me wanna learn a new skill
keep putting in that work stay focused an have fun
OMG Martin is going to have so much fun kicking some asses that day, remember he has trained MMA for years now he is huge, strong and so fast
Brian definitely has him beat in both size and strength. Martin definitely has the advantage though
Brian and Martyn are similar in height but Brian is the heavier guy and that’s not necessarily a good thing as it means he’s going to be using his energy supply faster
@@richardthomas3697a lot heavier a slower and no ep
I'm pulling for you but Martin is a beast as well. I'm hoping you got this.
Martin is slower than Eddie and also not athletic he just a big body
Love it i wish you all 5he best
Great documentary
Can't wait to get more info on the event.
If Brian and Eddie end up going at it they will just start laughing at each other...it will probably end up as a tickle match.
I actually don't think that Brian really likes Hall all that much.
I have seen some looks from. Brian...and actually many other Strong Men towards Eddie.
I all think they would like to hold him down with a leg leg triangle around his face ...and let a nasty fart go
@@petergripping1440 agreed deep down Brian fucking hates Eddie
Learning is one thing, but having that killer instinct and aggressiveness is another. Hopefully Brian is able to find that when he needs it.
One thing - Brian hates to lose - even more than he likes winning. I think he will do whatever needs to be done.
You can already see the more aggressive nature coming coming out when he’s reversing his sparring partner to the wall with his forearm on his throat, he does it pretty forcefully a few times. I think he will surprise everyone.
can't wait for the fight! good luck
I think Brian will be an absolute monster in the first 60 seconds. The question mark for me is what kind of pressure and strength can he bring and sustain in the later rounds, assuming no finish in round one.
@JordoniusOfFrisia Martyn Ford is the same height. 100lbs lighter though. Has at least some kickboxing background. Hope it is competitive and not a joke.
@@BeGrizzlyStrong The size difference will probably be about 60 pounds on the night. I think Brian will weigh around 375, the clip in this video where he says he's 415 is old I believe.
Scott Ferozo fought for 15 minutes straight in early ufc and he weighed 350 with way less muscle than Shaw
@@take2productions570 muscle burns energy faster. Less energy output means more endurance.
Does anyone bit me remember that video he did with the pro MMA fighter where he kicked the dude against a leg pad and basically flew him across the room 😂😂 Brian Shaw as an MMA fighter is just scary period.
The video with Dustin Poirier? Brian made Dustin tap. Brian got on his back and Dustin could literally do nothing. That’s all Brian needs to do is just get on top and there is literally no hope.
@@youtubeconnollyfamily i mean dustins a lightweight, someone like aspinall could probably get up
@@glellio88just see what what Aspinwall did again Eddie hall. Eddie would of got rag dolled.
Brian Shaw is physically much bigger than Eddie Hall though. Like... that guys just a monster. He makes Eddie look small @@youtubian010
Cannot wait. Best of luck.
Looking forward to seeing you fight!
Please let the guy live Brian! Lol
Those trainers are brave wrestling with a grizzly bear, props to them:)
Brian doing MMA is *TERRIFYING* to think about. But I think he's facing Eddie Hall, so it should be good.
Brian is facing Martyn Ford and Eddie is facing Mitchell Hooper but they will probably face each other if they win both their fights
@@InspectahReese Where did you find that info at?
@@InspectahReese I see haha commented before I watched the video.
@@kylerBDHe says it literally a minute into the video.
@@InspectahReese Thanks. I knew Eddie was involved, but I wasn't sure if he and Brian were facing off or if Brian had an opponent before him.
You seem to have awesome coaches Brian, I can’t wait to see you fight!
Refreshing to hear about a different type of transition lmao can't wait to see the fights!
Question, have you trained with someone actively trying to hit you for real. That would be the hardest part for me to overcome as someone who has always avoided confrontation, it's ok to learn techniques, but that all goes when someone is punching you in the face.
Everyone’s got a plan until they get punched in the mouth
Im sure he planned some real practice within his schedule, he is no dumb man
@@twatsonr1you guys gotta stop with this quote 😂
In boxing that is one advantage - you get hit even in sparring. This is a grappling practice and so no need to face real punches here.
@@twatsonr1 did you not see Brian take a 30 pound medicine ball off his face?
Martyn Ford is a great matchup! I’m excited to see how this goes!
There's a reason nobody will fight him. Brian's nowhere near ready, and the people at TKO sports couldn't care less about what can happen to him.
ford will wreck him
@@pete276 I hope Brian has been leaning into striking as much or more than grappling. If not, then I agree. I’m assuming Ford’s game plan is to end it with his hands rather than letting Brian get ahold of him. I’m trying to be optimistic 😅
@@brightonlund ford is very quick for his size and has trained for years, it will be over due to strikes, knees,elbows and punches, also a bit nuts helps
Glad to finnally see another upload from my favourite strongman!
good luck big man!
We all know Brian can take a punch. remember Eddie throwing that medicine ball, which prob weighs 30 pds off of Brian’s head. Did not even phase him. Coaches perspective. Think how cool it would be too literally have the strongest man on the Earth to coach for a MMA match within a couple months. You just need to teach him a few things to help him.
That’s still my all time favorite clip from their shenanigans haha
He's also had a metal keg fall on him and he just casually walks away from it
@@Pontious yeah mine too. And the elevator video.😂
@@Kain_R_Heinlein omg I should have said that I forgot about that. That was insane. I remember watching that live. It was like a feather hitting him.😂 I wonder if Brian knows like he could literally kill someone if he wanted to and that’s why he is so nice because he knows how dangerous he is. Now he has the chance to legally hurt someone as bad as he can until the referee stops him. It’s not like he’s going against some weak guy. Martin Ford is probably crazier than anyone. I just think if Brian gets him down drops one elbow. It’s over.
Working with these elite athletes should really help Brian, Martin is no joke !!! Clash of the titans !!!
You got this big guy keep at it you’ll do great
Brian Shaw is looking like the real life Abobo from Double Dragon fame. I am excited to see this big man eliminator matchup.
I hope he has great success and safety in MMA, then hopefully we see a full multi-year focus on Armwrestling
Let’s go Brian!! Strength and Homor
Homer simpson?
yeeah Brian! stretch and humor
Stench and odour
Let's go Brian! Strength and no Homo.
Length and tumour
Great job, Brian! I can't to see you actually let loose.
Hey Brian. Looking really good. Impressive progression! Being as strong as you are, it makes sense to try to land as many blows as possible. With that being said, I would definitely try to work on taking the fight to the floor or against the fence as you do in this video. Your size and weight alone will be so so difficult to handle. If you can get on top it would take something special not just to tap out immediately. I sure wouldn’t survive many seconds. I can’t even imagine how I could get in a position to make you submit if I was on my back against you 😂 💪🏻
Brian,
I believe the one thing that you will struggle with the most will be to not hold any of your strength back when in the actual fight. Your whole life, you made sure not to use your full strength when touching someone else. When you are grappling with someone and try to manipulate their arms or legs, if you use all your strength, you will likely break their bones, and in MMA, that is a good thing. You are a truly nice guy and will be fighting people you are at least friendly with if not are genuinely your friends. Once the match starts you need to consider them your mortal enemy. Don't worry about how injuring them will effect them after the fight. Pretend they are trying to kill your family, and if you don't stop him immediately, he will do the worst things to possibly make them, then finally kill them. That is the mentality you need to be the best fighter possible within the time you have to train.
To be fair if you hold back strength you can reserve more energy throughout the entire fight
This is the most armchair warrior thing I've ever read.
Imagine fighting Brian Shaw 💀💀💀
Yes, truly an alien head emoji moment.
if he would put me in side control i'm a pancake 💀
Can't wait to see Brian's kicks and striking training.
This is going to be incredible! Im so friggin hyped. LETS GO SHAW!!!!
You never know, if Brian can take getting hit he may have found his new calling.
Who can take getting hit by a 300 to 400 lb man?
Dude....he's 41. Ain't nothin wrong with it but it is a money grab, not a new career. Probably just the one fight.
@@Pedant_Patrolme when I was a kid
👌
Not at 41. Although the training might be a good way to transition from strongman. I hope he continues to train at least
I imagine for these guys it will be, cardio, cardio, cardio.
Agreed. I think much could win on that alone as he has far and away the best cardio with Brian living in altitude being second
Honestly all 4 of the dudes have decent cardio. Especially for their size
This is gonna be amazing to watch. Some large dudes going in the ring to dish it out. Hope everyone stays as safe as possible. Shaw and Ford is going to be big!
A man of your size,cardio, cardio, cardio big man. Looking forward to the fights.
Poor Martyn... Imagine fighting Brian Shaw😂
Martyn will beat the shit out of Brian...
@@hg_10sm68😂
@@eric43085 what's funny? Brian literally punches like he's in a dream. Martyn ain't great but he's much better than Brian based on what we've seen of both
@@hg_10sm68 Martyn is a big guy, but definitely not beating Brian, one of the most massive and strong human beings on earth atm
@@guuspalmero Bro, being 'massive and strong' doesn't mean you can fight. Brian couldn't punch his way out of a wet paper bag. Martyn's technique, speed & athleticism is on another level completely
I feel that Brian is too much of a gentle giant, and that is the reason I love following his career.
I think he is going to hold back most of his power since he is afraid he might do some real damage. That is detrimental in a sport where you need to hit the other guys block off. He needs to flip a switch somewhere to enter that killer mode before the fight or it is not going to go well.
Have you seen the guy he's fighting 💀💀. His adrenaline will kick in and he will fight to hurt the guy trust me
man I'm so hyped, train safe!
Brian Shaw is someone I can truly say is one of my main inspirational figures. Keep up the amazing work man!
Wow, either he is very hard to coach or he could use some different instruction on how to strike. Big guys gotta stop thinking punch “hard” and has to learn smooth and fast. The “hard” will come with his mass and crisp technique.
It’s almost like his body is stuck in a certain mode of being from all the strongman training!
You seem like such a good guy I really don’t want to see you get punched in the face,all the best Brian
I second that haha
OMG can't wait to see thisxD
This is really cool. I will definitely watch the event if it makes it to fruition. I hope no one gets hurt. Those men are all way over the HW limit of 265. Gonna be some monster power in there.
Pulling for you champ!
Fair play, Brians’s really putting the hours in 👍
Love to see it Brian. If I could offer some advice, focus on wrist control when in a clinch, use body pressure to your advantage (push on your opponent then switch suddenly and pull them onto the mat ) use elbows (most effective when in close range and on breaks) tap the body (doler plexus, liver, ribs) this keep the opponent hurt and open to a headshot.
Day before my birthday 💪 good luck Brian!
Good luck in your MMA match man. But I'm realllllllly hoping you decide to come over to the world of arm wrestling soon too 💪🎃
Oh shit. How am I hearing this now. Can’t wait. ❤
So excited for this
Epic! If you know you know. This size and power being taught the knowledge and skill set. Dude will be the baddest human walking, hands down.
Brian is just a great dude. ABSOLUTE BEAST in strongman but a gentle giant and all around great guy outside competition.
