      Isn't it Coleman who he dislikes? Something to do with Coleman accusing Don of throwing a wrestling match then the coach asked Don to lose to Coleman to cheer him up or something. Or was that someone else

    • @stevejamieson8468
      @stevejamieson8468 Před 9 měsíci +5

      ​@@josheisert8380His disdain for Mark happened because of how badly Mark beat the crap out of him at UFC 10. Mark talked about it on the Hannibal TV shoot interview. Eventually Don came up to Mark and they became friends afterwards.
      The person you are thinking about is Tank Abbott. Tank accused Don's training partner Mark Hall of throwing one of their UFC tournament fights so Don could advance.

    • @josheisert8380
      @josheisert8380 Před 9 měsíci

      @@stevejamieson8468 I wasn't thinking of tank. It was a wrestling team and don was asked by the coach to let said person win( I thought it was mark) because Don couldn't continue anyway and they wanted to lift said persons spirits. He was upset about that as well as said person accusing him of throwing a previous wrestling match. Ironic. But who knows the truth I just know what don said minus the name

    So glad to hear Mark got sober and is working hard to focus on his health. I'll have 13 years sober this October. It takes a while for the slur and mental clarity to come back around, Like any other part of the body it does comes back. I was in highschool in late 90s and watched all of you fight in the UFC's back when men were men. 👍👊🇺🇸

  • @Collartie
    @Collartie Před 9 měsíci +6

    EPIC !!!
    Coleman nailed the history of what discipline dominated UFC as it was coming up. UFC gave wrestling a platform to prove that wrestling is KING.
    There was only one period in history, which was the 90's and 2000's, where the separate disciplines were still unfamiliar with each other enough to call a lot of fights a 'pure battle' of the disciplines.
    And that history is written forever and can't be changed or rewritten because now, over 30 years down the road, fighter training has just morphed into MMA training which blurs all the lines of division that existed as they fought it out in the 90's and early 2000's.
    But, every person knows now that without any wrestling at all....especially some defense...you're in big trouble.

  • @coolguy54life99

Drug free and super tolerant. Don, you are all American and a fearless nuttcase. Mark, you kicked both their asses so enough said. Mark, grow a mustache and join the podcast! Crazy energy!

Kids today don’t remember the no rules era. Real men!!!! I was a correctional officer for 13 years and used a lot of the techniques you three preformed in the cage on inmates. Especially you Dan. Control submission without damage. Coleman and Frye’s techniques were for the more violent situations. Got diagnosed with PTSD and resigned before the illness was recognized by the ministry. Climbed out of hell and now I’m a stay at home dad for my kids. I’m a Canadian and your guy’s view’s are point on. Great work boys or should I say fathers of the best ass kicking ever.

      He cursed at me and I replied laughing “ don’t care. I’m not up to date on my gay b c’s. The nail that sticks out always gets hammered. Have fun.” WTF honestly how many real men are left?

    You know something? I likely watched this for the same reasons everyone else did; these are three of the greatest and most dominant heavyweight fighters to ever enter a ring, octagon, or wrestling mat, of all time. However, the strongest impression from start to finish, for me;
    The man who was now somewhat ironically tagged with the fighting name, "The Beast", is clearly one of the most compassionate, understanding, truly caring men in any profession. The look on Dan's face, his laser-focused attention to Mark's words as Mark was telling his tragic and painful story, and Dan's responses and questions, was all clearly rooted in true concern. And Don, with well-placed humor, also has nothing but love and respect, for Mark. This was worth watching, far beyond the sport, they all so masterfully dominated.
    May God draw you to Him, and that you find true healing, and His infinite, inner peace.
