Mark Hunt on Street Fighting vs MMA 

Well said.

And yet in every fight, he's always underestimated. Never seen as the favourite to win.

DJ DHAECH everyone was saying the deadly 4 would be champs then robert walked through them.

En P that would be Yoel, Jacare and who else?

+SicFromTheKush Derek Brunson was on a 4 fight knockout streak when Robert fought him. Also, Yoel and Jacare are two of the scariest fighters in that division. Robert fought them both while the middleweight title holders avoided them. Them two alone I would say qualifies as a "killer's row".

SHERMA I was 100th like :)

Lol

fun fact: he dyed his hair blonde because hes a fan of dragon ball z.thats his alter ego, a super saiyan goku.

Turning into the hulk that's why 3:00

great comment.

i've never listened to the entirety of a Joe Rogan podcast but if Whittaker comes on as a guest I will certainly complete the podcast

fuck that podcast

Monscent Him and Rogan dont seem get along. Rogan being a huge Romero fan and all.

Lukez0409 lol right?

Monscent IM SO FUCKING WAITING FOR THAT TO HAPPEN.

you mah kinda guy homie no homo ofc

@luke stevenson like rap

Only bad comes out of street fighting.

There is no honor in fighting for money But if someone insults my girlfriend i will defend her honor for free to ubtil my death. You are a weasel greedy materialistic kid.

@@backbone93 right. Get a girlfriend first

dy120481 these two guys don't talk shit like at all I mean they don't even have a taunt option in UFC 3 lmaob

Mentally and Physically fit people are more healthier in all aspects of life...

dy120481 It shouldn't be remarkable 😐 This is how most people are and should be.

Lynxchillin08 You need to get out more.

dy120481 Why's that ?

Ole Skool South Auckland Styles Never hit a man down With MMA the times have changed HUNT kept it real Rewa Hard💪✌

Evil Empire Network keep it 💯 always!

Evil Empire Network Not as straight as shooter as Brick Lesnar though

Yeah sure,"straight shooter", at double legs and steroid needles maybe.

That but he can also kick dudes in the head.

How so? They're completely different.

Tyson Peterson GSP beat Matt Hughes with a headkick

GSP knocked down the second greatest welterweight ever with a headkick, and almost did the same to Jake Shields.

Except Whitaker is exciting. No matter how he fights, it is boring to watch Georges because you know he just wants the TD

Well said

mark 'hulk' hunt

TJ West It was gamma rays that Bruce Banner was exposed to

Nah Mark is just trying to stop himself from Hulking out with varying levels of success.

I thought Shrek was jizzing on Mark for a sec

TJ West artifacts? *grabs digging tool*

VinceMcmahon 😂

VinceMcmahon you’ve taken countless steroids though

Shah Omar 😂

FUNNY SH#T that’s because he’s Polynesian and Polynesians age like Asians

as if 43 is old . you talk as if he is 73 not 43 lol

Seriously. Even fighters with good striking but shitty grappling would still beat the shit out of most people. Most of those guys look like they're not good at BJJ or wrestling but they're usually at least a blue or purple belt. They just look like shit because they're up against high level black belts

Very true. Like the very few street fights I was in I won because I had basic boxing skills and could throw hard straight punches while they are wind milling at me. Then I sign up for mma class and get kicked so hard in the liver I pissed my pants. Just worlds apart the two

It’s almost the same with guys that are strong ass meatheads and think strength will translate to grappling. I personally thought that because I was strong that I could hang and I ended up getting done in until I got a few years under my belt and realized being strong doesn’t matter, it just helps.

Tbf if you have martial arts experience you can hold on a bit longer against some of the BJJ guys Literally Guy was on top I got him off he later got me with triangle but honestly I held these guys off with little grappling experience Few RU-vid tutorials every now and then I know what they’re trying to do I had martial arts and self defence experience It’s only bad for ppl that know no self defence

Never lost a fight in a pub or street,(younger years) been humbled every time I step into a martial arts academy regardless of discipline. Still believe I could create mayhem without a rule set although that's been countered now where I live you would just get stabbed. So I'm glad the only people I fight is under a rule set and I get beat daily. Love it though.

Jake Sivilla ever?🙊😂

Raul Gonzalez Hunts record calls for a discussion, but I'd argue they're two of the best for sure.

Raul Gonzalez Yes ever, Robert is the best middleweight ever in terms of skill.

Same here

yeah hunt loses by submission

Lmaoooo

Over 9000!??

His ass did not beat him the second time. He is awesome though. But I wont let bias tell me a dude who got dropped several times and was close to the match being stopped...saying he won that fight. Nonsense.

Like spills said, Yoel sent Rob to outer space and back twice and put him on his back twice where Rob was inches away from defeat. It's one thing for you to disagree, but you show us what a fan boy you are when you call us delusional over our assessment. Really?? Several professional fighters agree with our position. Yoel won, that's it...

We live in a dreamland and we're on something. Pontificate much? How about we're Nazis? Hitler? Pedophiles and sexual deviants. The scum of the earth!! The devil. We're the devil...

Robert won 3 out of 5 rounds against a roid cheat 205er who can't make 185 without laxatives. No arguing that.

He's not a roid cheat. He had some controversy over supplements. Here we go with you fan boys...

Thats a VERY interesting matchup. I like Kelvin's odds. I think his faster hands will be the difference maker.

juan twotree Based on Kelvin’s performance against Chris Weidman, which is really the only top middle weight he has faced (and tbh Chris hasn’t been going too well for a while either), I don’t feel like he could have done what Rob has done.

Only top middleweight? He fought against Bisping and Jacare as well. That's 3 top middleweights

I dont think so either, but rob vs kelvin is a stylistic matchup that is intriguing. Rob's striking style is less volume and leans toward being a counter striker. Kelvin is REALLY good at following his punches and entries up with more punches. A solid disruption tactic against a counter puncher. Rob has more power but Kelvin has more snap to his punches. Both must be very careful. I feel like the striking accuracy goes to Kelvin. Rob's head kicks will play a HUGE part in this fight due to Kelvin's height disadvantage and boxing heavy style. Kelvin has nice inside leg kicks against Rob's heavy lead foot. Kelvin most like wont get a single takedown on Rob but will have to threaten with it to get close and punch. Most of this fight will take place in range, which will be Rob's advantage. But if i have to bet, i'll guess Kelvin will catch Rob with a left cross down the pipe or a lead hook over Rob's lead shoulder. Or kelvin misses weight. LOL "TIRAMISUUU!!! I LUUHH YOUUUUU""

Methodman fuck I forgot about Jacare... still I’d say that rob did a much better job in that matchup then kelvin did. As for Bisping, I love the dude but he really wasn’t the cream of the crop despite him being champion for a bit... this + the horrible timing of that fight for Bisping = not a huge accomplishment.

Yea, I see so many idiots talking “real street talk”, it’s so fucking stupid and they plague the mma community, worst example of it was some meathead talking about how “in the streets men beat each others face in until they are choking on blood” like stfu

True that

Al Haymon quiet pussy

@Al Haymon that sounds like fighting talk.

@HEART OF A WARRIOR That never happened. Islanders can fight, it's in their blood and history. They are warriors. It's all you see in New Zealand, big islanders smashing people. They are all big like Mark Hunt.

15 guys? Great story.

Straight up. Mark Hunt is a living legend with a CV that reads like a who's who of MMA. Also, I have no trouble believing an elite martial artist like your friend could wade through a pile of maggots as you describe. A single leg kick can fold a tough man in a half if he's not conditioned to take them and packs of losers tend to lose their balls pretty fast once all their heavy hitters have been smashed up.

@@Pimpjit85 yes

@@Pimpjit85 the truth is that no matter how skilled you are, if a group, say five or more attack (and don't retreat), you are done for. Not saying it couldn't happen or hasn't, but the probability of winning is extremely minimal.

@@samplant420 Lol, so you're suggesting if Mark Hunt got into a fight with 5 guys he'd lose? Hence my original point casual fans just don't get it. Trust me, if you instigated a fight with Mark Hunt and he landed a punch anywhere on your body, you wouldnt be retreating, you'd be on the ground with internal bleeding.

Hear hear

G up

Gastelum's more of a challenge though; Whittaker has arguably the best TDD in the UFC, so Weidman would be fucked.

Gastelum will KO Whittaker stiff.

Bro, ive never had a street fight in my life other than throwing a combo at a kid who was older than me when i was a kid. But i have over 12 years of on and off Muay Thai and some Boxing experience and know what im capable off. Tbh, street is real life. But being a martial artist does help.

Onix Junes what?

@@Aki-xj6ll if u listened to the podcast ud know he meant finding a team and getting back on his feet after he lost. but still i think brian ortega is shit.

@@RJFrance why do u think he is shit? Who are you to call him "shit"?

jen zydyk sounds like a real winner...

What a jerk

Does he plays Street Fighter 2 Turbo?

General Jemz what

@@WillFyeTV translation: stepping out means, pursuing a fight......dawnraid is a Newzealand rap group, I'll let you figure out the rest🤙

Dman 1 oh man, I’ve never had a kidney stone, but I’ve witnessed someone that did. I flinch just thinking about it.

...no joke!

Thought Whitaker was born in Australia lol

Colby Williams naaa keep mark hunt as one of the biggest beer guts ever lmao

Colby Williams 🤣🤣🤣 shit that's right Roy Nelson was nothing but fat

I think hunt could be a 205er but not 185. Not healthily anyway

I hope you're joking

When he was 10

Michael Rhodes Maori bruv still poly tho😎😎

Himalayan his mother is half Maori, half Samoan. Rob already explained this

yusei999 I’m pretty sure an mma fighter will have the better technique and timing in a street fight...boy you sound stupid af

Anyone can beat anyone but the CHANCES a street fighter is besting a competent mma fighter is very lol. Not only are they more skilled they now have the freedom to gouge your eyes stomp o n your head and break you without mercy. Not to mention being more relaxed

BOOM! idc Tv Whom are you talking about. Who'll stomp whom?

A comment coming from someone's who's never stepped in a gym in his life.

Big D an mma fighter stomping on the street fighter. Not only are they technically but in thst situation they're no longer bound to the rules of the sport

I don't think anyone would look at Mark hunt and think I can beat him up... regardless knowing who he is or not. 100% muscle and power in those arms. I think his stare would make any man pack it

Pussy

PeaceByPovetkins na bro both kiwi one grew up in AU's big difference

and Nganu lost all confidence ad was to afraid to throw a punch

@@hyroproto4364 and then Ngannou got his confidence and KO'd a veteran and a legend

@@hyroproto4364 And now Ngannou is HW champ

And you know what would happen if hunt had gone into k1 with no training or ngannou in the ufc? They would have gassed out in a minute and gotten ktfo.
