I think you missed the main reason he was so successful with takedowns. It's the pummeling in the clinch to get his opponents moving that setup his takedowns. Great video on the technical aspects of his takedowns.
I hope people are keen for the future instalment of the dirty boxing analysis? A lot of subtle movements so it will take me a fair bit of time to go through all the footage.

sonny nice videos and you are a beast in the ring too. respect! I would like to fight/ spar you if you are in Melbourne :) im 87 kg (10% fat) 5'10 blue belt bjj and 3 years thai boxing. anyway back to the video, randys clinch is nasty especially the single collar ties with uppercuts. good variation to standard muay thai techniques. that inside leg trip from over/under or double underhooks is khabib-esque too ey. keep up the G work- aussie MMA ftw
Thanks for the support. I can't control how many people watch, but I can control the videos I make so I will just keep making them and see what happens.
I've actually tried to find a good video of dirtyboxing in mma because I'm a amateur mma-fighter with a judo-base. Haven't found yet and I'm too lazy to watch all the Coutures fights... So I appreciate the work you are putting in a lot! Gonna share your videos! Also like your different music :)
That was great. I might add we overstate the Greco. He did a lot of leg and contol takedowns. It is really Folkstyle mascarading as Greco. Nonetheless, good video.
HELLO EVERYONE . Many of these throws { no hands on legs } are used in real muay thai fights . however there is a preponderance of leg grabbers whom refuse to accept & learn these moves.
Because he is from Greco Roman wrestling background. Greco Roman live by the clinch takedown and throws. Leg takedown is only from freestyle wrestling. Greco Roman wrestling is really good for stand up striking. It work well with Muay Thai clinch and dirty boxing. Couture probably the best clinch fighter ever. He combine Muay Thai clinch. He knees you on the clinch then use dirty boxing. Then throw and takedown you from clinch position. That upper strength of Greco Roman wrestler and upper posture make it good to transition into boxing. It give you more punching power. Also if someone use judo combine with Greco wrestlingvon the clinch also will be great. Since judo association banned leg attack of freestyle wrestler. Judo now is actually Greco Roman with gi. It great to combine Greco with judo.
I'm a huge fan of Bas Rutten and Randy Couture. I think Couture would edge Bas in a fight because Bas didn't really have takedown defence . Grappling wise i'd say they're equal
My oppinion is that Randy couture ,s fighting style based on wresling is not edficent in the heavy weight division also becose he is more a light heavyweight and that is why he did not had a realy succesfull career in ufc. It would be interesting to see a realy heavyweight wresler in hulk hogan style fighting in ufc using wresling techniques.
In a real street fight...he would beat his opponents with ease...all he has to do is just throw them opponents with them greco-roman slams to the concrete floor and thats it buddy LMAO
