If anyone ever claims to be 450-0 in fighting you've either met a liar or you've met Chael Sonnen the GOAT

Lmfao you really can't argue that logic. Some guy: "Hey bro you did not beat 450 people" Rickson: "Ok square up then" Guy: "I'm good" Rickson: "exactly the records 451 now" 😂😂😂

I lost a staring contest against Rickson once. He added that victory to his record.

He even putting the elderly ladies he teaches on his record, what a savage.

Bas Rutten "wow that's amazing not 399 not 401 but 400." Come on Chael Bas did everything but a dojo storm to get Rickson in a Pride Fight but in 1998 or 99 Rickson was asking for a million dollars which was unheard of back then. When Bas came out of retirement in 2006 they asked who he wanted to fight Bas said Rickson and was willing to forgo his pay to give Rickson his million and Rickson asked for ten million.

I have a friend who I served with in the Army that trained with the Gracie's in the 90's. He told me, that I wouldn't believe the number of fighters that would just show up at the Torrance gym and challenge Him. Open challenge Welcome any hour of any day, anytime they were open. No one beat Him !!

Chael is the master of talking about something for 10 minutes without actually saying anything at all

This is true. No one has ever walked up to Chael and said he has ever lost a fight. Hence, he's undefeated and undisputed.

A friend of mine attended a seminar in the 90's and he was impressed that Rickson rolled with and tapped out with ease everyone ...often starting from disadvantageous positions such as full mount, rear choke etc 50+ attendees, Judokas, wrestlers, tough guys, young athletes etc. Mythical level skills.

Alexander Karelin won gold medals at the 1988, 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games and a silver medal at the 2000 Olympic Games. His wrestling record is 887 wins and two losses, both by a single point and if i remember correctly last loss was due to change of rules. Almost all are documented on video))

Rickson's own father said this was BS. Rorian Gracie is one of the greatest marketing geniuses in martial arts history. Created a myth of a family, created a sport out of that, and turned all that into a giant, perpetual money making business for himself and his family, even though the sport he created passed his family by in terms of skill and ability 20 years ago.

This reminds me of back in the first few UFCs all the guys had crazy records like 375-2 and no one ever verified them 😂

"It was 400 when I woke up this morning. It's now 450. That is official!" Not gonna lie, that cracked me up 🤣

Rickson dares say he is undefeated and undisputed?

"Dear diary, I pushed my kindergarten classmate today, which means I'm already 17-0." (Rickson Gracie, 1971).

Did he break Jon Jones' toe though? Yeah thought not. Undefeated, undisputed and never lost a round.

There's video evidence of Rickson losing. Rickson's definition of a fight is "Any altercation where I won". He then takes that number and multiplies it by 10

I believe there were days when people kept unofficial vale tudo records outside of sanctions. They competed in a true amateur sense in their gyms, but treated it like a real sport. This is why Helio called out Rickson, saying that by there rules, Helio had a million fights.

Imagine going into practice for the day or going to train a class of kids or white belts...and than leaving the gym being 8-0 for that day...😑💀

Rickson Gracie claiming to be undefeated is an insult to the greats like good ol’ Uncle Chael. How dare he try to fake it into the ranks of true undefeated champions like Chael.

When Mario Sperry competed at the Extreme Fighting, he was introduced with the record of 272-0. In the same competition, Allan Goes with 172-0

I have never ever heard someone as skilled in talking but not saying anything as Sonnen. It’s amazing… it’s truly amazing.

I totally get why anyone would not believe that, but only people that either trained with him or saw him training PERSONALLY can understand that the statement is true. I’ve witnessed with my own eyes Rickson beating more than 10 BJJ BLACK BELTS ( all ready to compete, in top shape to compete at the Pan American Tournament in LA, 1996) immediately after that he continue to train with all Brown belts, then purple belts, the whole thing lasted about 60 to 90 min. He wrestled with at least 20 people in a row, submitting every single one. All the athletes came from different gyms to visit Rickson and do their final training before competition. After the 10th match or so, all Rickson needed was a few yoga deep stomach breaths to continue, like between 30 to 60 sec rest only between every match, it was incredible to see some of the biggest name in BJJ at the time getting tapped out effortlessly by Rickson.

He lost to Ron Tripp

I mean if Rickson is gonna include all of those different things into his record, I feel like he also has to include the actual sanctioned match against Ron Tripp, which he lost.

Even his father said its bs lol

if you look at ricksons record, he was active till the year 2000. most of his "biggest wins" came in the mid ninetees when he won the valt tudo japan tournaments, beating low level or completely unkown opponents. the problem with this is that at this time, you already had guys like frank and ken schamrock, semmy schilt, tank abbott, don frye, bas rutten, mark coleman, dan severn and a TON of others competing at the same time. and rickson refused to those guys. all he did was talk. that makes him the charlie zelenoff of mma!!

How quickly he went from 415 to 450! Impressive!

Chael Sonnen’s 1000000-0 record…

A record like this isn't completely unheard of. Remember Lomachenko was 396-1 as an amateur boxer, and he avenged his 1 loss twice. So I kinda believe Rickson.

This conversation is 20 years old, when Sakuraba wanted to challenge the entire Gracie Family and beat them all, except Rickson didn't want to put his 0 on the line and never fought since then...

450-0 I assumed this included gym hard sparring sessions. He rolled with like 30 strangers at a random gym in the 90s on video so if this is part of the number he is using its probably accurate. He fought in pre-mma where mma bouts wasn't really a combat sport yet (besides styles vs styles or gyms vs gyms).

Well, he definitely did lose to Ron Tripp. Can't deny that.

Congrats on 1 Mil Chael. For all I know, you have been there for some time now, but it'd the first time that I had noticed. Keep Killin' It Man. ✌️🤙

Tito tapped

Talking Shoe is 450-0 against Wanderlei

Frank Dux can punch a hole through time and reset his record.

Came straight to the comments, y’all never disappoint! Undefeated and Undisputed

You have GOT to love some of the closed-captions that come across the bottom of these RU-vid videos... Was watching this with captions turned on, and at about the 1min:12sec mark (where Uncle Chael says "Rickson Gracie beat 450 men... that's it...!!"), the captions read as "Pigs and gravy, 450 men"... I've seen hundreds of odd caption errors, but this ranks up there with the funniest I've read YET !!!😂

I guess he was the only Gracie that ducked Kazuhiro Sakuraba, which makes him the smartest Gracie! Because that dude was a Gracie hunter!

Fighters with the most wins in MMA history: Travis Fulton (257) Dan Severn (101) Jeremy Horn (91) Travis Wiuff (77) Luis Santos (65) Tony Lopez (64) Ikuhisa Minowa (64) Yuki Kondo (61) Jeff Monson (60) Alexey Oleynik (60)

Love the energy here. Chael your the man, for a minute there I thought you were fighting Spider Silva again!

i believe it bc back then in his days he was most definitely THE BEST and it took people a while to catch up

Rickson Gracie was amazing incredible, and light years ahead of his time,I saw him destroy numerous people who were future UFC fighters,all in the same sparring session!

I call BS on that 450-0

I tried Magic spoon.. it got soggy in milk and tasted stale. I tried Ridge wallet .. my cards fall out and the wallet slides out of my pocket and gets lost in the car. But Tonight I was forced to eat a white onion instead of a red one on a Hamburger and I can no longer take Uncle Chael at his word.

In my book He's not undefeated because he's chickened out on fighting sakaraba the Gracie killer.

The Gracie's have a history of getting caught lying.

Chael Sonnen could read the freaking phone book and make it entertaining.

I lol'd at the title lolll

in brazil we have several jiu-jitsu competitions throughout the year, in bigger events you fight about 10 or more fighters before getting a medal. It's not hard to imagine the number he spoke if he's someone quite active! I don't know what competitions are like in other countries, but here you have to fight several fighters before reaching a final.

Bryan Callen who invented 10th Planet is the only person more impressive than Rickson Gracie

I don't doubt it. Rickson is on another level.

You're looking at the reflection of perfection. You're looking at the man who gets all your attention. You're looking at the man with the biggest arm. At the man, with the greatest charm, the man in Chicago who will do harm to the guy three doors down. Whatcha gonna do, when you know who? How ya gonna deal, with the man of steel? How ya gonna react to Sonnen's attack? Congratulations for being the only bad guy ever to hit 1 million subscribers!

When he said who has walked up and something to the effect of no you didnt i got goose bumps and then started laughing

Do you know what Rickson Gracie is doing right now? _Whatever Rickson Gracie wants to do_

450? That's cute. I fought 1,500 and never lost. I never went passed round 1 and have records of fastest knockout and fastest submission. I was taught by my sensei Frank Dux.

I was introduced to mma by the now defunct promotion “extreme fighting” . I remember mario sperry was said to have a record of 273-0. Basically all those fighters had exaggerated records.

My understanding is that Ricksons own father called bs on that number and said it was actually the 11 that are recorded and that Rickson counts every sparring session , brotherly fight etc and that if he did that he would have a million fights to his name! I am only repeating what I have read elsewhere more than once so cannot say this is 100% true.

Chael is undefeated and that is all that should matter.

Chael do you think the version of you that fought Anderson Silva would beat Wanderlei Silva at his best?

Chael P. Sonnen’s titanium steel docking station from Magic Spoon

I'm down for some window sheen chael sonnen shirts. Let me know when & where they drop

Nailed this perfectly, anyone else is clearly bs. Rickson was the most dominant person in combat for the entirety of his life of fighting. Further ahead in technique and bigger inner dog than anyone in the cage, in the gym and on the streets. There are videos of him settling disputes in backrooms 1 on 1, not a sanctioned match and not a practice, a mutual combat till tap or nap. Rougher times then

Somebody’s 0 has got to go

Omg I am fuckin rolling! Bro said pigs and gravy! Bahaahahahahahhaahaaaaa

He must’ve counted him tapping out kids at his jiu jitsu gym 😂😂😂

Let's not forget Charlie Z is 289 -0

I never liked it when ju jitsu people called matches fights lol

Chael brought up Mark Schultz, from what I understand back in mid 90's Rickson and Mark had a submission match in the gym Rickson caught Mark in an Armbar and Schultz was pissed off about that. I wish that match was filmed because I heard it lasted over 10 minutes or something not sure exactly how long.

Love this guy.. I've learnt so much from him.. I'm now the number one used car salesman in my state. Thanks bro!

Think of some of the ancient warriors that must of had to of existed that went into battle or something and came out on top through out their life's and we will never know what they did, how many people they defeated, how many battles they faced, etc. It gets pretty crazy thinking about stuff like that during the era's of hand to hand combat wars..

He is only 450-0 because he was too scared to fight Lord Chael.

We may as well call it an even 500.

Thanks Mr. Sonnen. Your vids are engrossing because educational, entertaining, and fricking HILARIOUS! Your MMA takes are "spit take" warning worthy. ⚠️.

It's fairly obvious how he classifies what counts. If he wins it counts. Seems legit to me. I have a similar system and have yet to fail in life.

And he doesn’t count one of the few actually recorded matches he lost in under a minute. lol

So far i have stepped up my wallet game, my cereal game, my jeans game, and im a lord now.

I feel like the difference in level and skill was way bigger back then, not many guy's had an answer to his jiu jitsu and most people who did train a martial art only trained one dicipline. Now a days almost every fighter at least knows how to stop a takedown or how to cancel your advances on the ground. I think today there are way more amateur fighters who actually know how to fight and many many more proffesional fighters that are legit. I believe Rickson, but many of these fights were probably challenges and or gym fights.

The closest record to that claim is Loma's amateur boxing record at 396-1 which is definitely an amazing feat. but if he's talking jiu jitsu maybe it could be true but it's something that really needs some proof.

Would you all wear Window sheen chael sonnen shirts?

Chael, use an assumptive close during your warranty pitch for the Ridge wallet. "When you decide to keep it, do nothing. If it's not for you, return it within...blah blah"

Big John thought Yann won lol

They left their dojo open to challenge by any style for years. Also Vale Tudo is (no holds barred not MMA) NHB. I would easily assume these guys were challenged about 365 days a year so yeah it is probably at least double this number. Lol, I love Rickson G bc a fight is a fight🤷✊🏆

Salute to the entire Gracie family ! Thank you so much. Royce was always my favorite. I believe it’s more closer to 450 grappling matches not fights.

Chael not looking at camera while talking about sponsor.Lol

I love Chael to death, "if you can't whoop him, it's true" lmao

I read his book Breath and I must say that it’s the best book I’ve ever read. Soo well written and full of passion. The Ending tho! The ending was straight out of a Japanese Anime ending

Gracies only did so well because they always insisted on rules that favored their style. When you strip them of all the rules they insist on having, they never fared so well.

Chael makes a good point, about every match at practice counting, if you follow Rickson's line of reasoning, but I think there's a clear line to draw. People would go to his seminars just to roll with him at the end. He would roll with them all, and he didn't stop until each one said they were done. Not just after he tapped them, which he most definitely did, but after they gave up. They weren't rolling like teammates do at practice, they were hoping to tap him just once, or get him to say he was tired, and wanted a rest. He knew that, if one of them tapped him after being tapped 10 x, they would run and tell the world that they tapped RIckson Gracie. He knew that, if they asked if he wanted to keep going, and he said that he wanted to give the other guys a chance, they would run and tell the world that he quit, because he was either tired, or knew they were eventually going to tap him. Those are non-friendly competitions. It's fair to count them. Also, some people came to his dojo to challenge him. Some are recorded, some are not. He would offer to promote it, and fight publicly, so they could all make some money, but some wanted a private shot at the crown, so they didn't risk losing publicly. Part of why the jujitsu world that is full of guys with big egos hasn't produced one person to call BS could be that they all went to a Rickson seminar once, and threw everything they had at him to no avail. Maybe it doesn't matter them if it's 50, 150, or 450; they each guy individually knows that it was 100% of the guys he knows who are absolute bruisers with many titles to their name who personally told him that Rickson did the same thing to them.

I did not see it but I heard that Rickson's toughest fight that he fought to a draw and did not win was against Maurco Ruas king of the streets in vale tudo.

Hes almost as good as Charlie zelenoff the GOAT! 380-0 😉

I heard Chaels combined record is 451-0. Just saying ..

Always heard Rickson say this stuff. I have his book "Breathe" and in that book he talks about losing bjj tournaments...

I trained with Pedro Sauer, a Hickson Gracie student. He's told us a bunch of stories about fights against US Marines as 16 year old kid. He could've easily gone through 20 marines in a day. Imagine how many in a few years.

Rickson "charlie z" Gracie

Rickson sounds alot like Seagal.

They should make a parody of Blood Sport with Rickson and have the same type of ending credits sequence.

He probably counted sparring and he was the judges
