Breaks hirota’s arm, flips him off, mocks his broken arm, flips off the crowd, and runs out the building. So out of place in Japanese mma. Straight gangsta shiit
I kind of don't blame him more than any other trash talker. Trash talking is trash talking. Arm breaking is arm breaking. Anybody who refuses to tap out is either trying to cheat right in front of everybody or is saying "try it I really don't believe you have it". And at that level you DEFINITELY know when they have it.
His fight against Sakuraba was one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve witnessed in sports. To see one Japanese MMA legend essentially retire another just hits different. And Aoki’s post fight speech to Sakuraba showed he held the man in high respect and admiration.
I met Sakuraba at a club in Shinjuku once and he was hella cool. My had to translate the conversation because him and I were both to drunk to speak eachothers languages well enough to make sense lmfao .
So true, someone will eventually knock out Jon Jones cos you can’t fight forever and expect to keep on winning. Your body breaks down like everyone else
Aoki is one of my favorite Japanese fighters, second only to Sakuraba. Neither of them ever had any quit in them, and made me realize that grappling can be as exciting and aesthetically pleasing as elite striking.
@@bso1469 yes its litteraly everything, beeing the much bigger and heavier guy, still resorting to fouling and blinding Yuki forever, yet still losing and putting the blame on the ref afterwards and saying he would do it AGAIN. Litteral sociopath
Shinya Aoki is not a legend of Japanese MMA, he's a legend of worldwide MMA. Looking at his record and titles, its truly amazing. Looking at his highlights is even crazier. Its crazy to think, hes not done yet. Still competing in ONE championship. His last fight against Akiyama was pretty tragic, but hopefully he can have one more and retire at ONE or RIZIN. He deserves a proper send off
Huh? What record? 47 and 11 in some no-name promotions? That's pretty mediocre at best. Sorry to burst your bubble, but no one has heard of him outside of Japan because he's just not an elite fighter. They wouldn't even make a youtube video about him if he didn't break somebody's arm.
@@Teddy-se8qb You got me there! I'm definitely not an MMA nerd like you and don't have the time to follow every fighter, no matter how mediocre. Neither do most people. How about you spend some time on the actual training instead of youtube?
EH....he doesn't "deserve" anything. Would definitely dispute him being a "legend" in any capacity, let alone on world scale. You're really reaching here dude. He was undoubtedly a good fighter but he's also one of the biggest letdowns too. His record is actually a fantastic example of a guy that has spent his entire career beating average/mediocre guys and then facing actual real opposition where he inevitably gets exposed, loses, and goes back to padding his record. Hell, just spending his entire career mainly in Asia, when most of the talent at the time was stateside, shows what a "legend" that he isn't
I like the way this channel is going. Rather than just being normal top 10 videos I feel we’re getting quality documentary type videos which isn’t a highly tapped into market, I feel there’s definitely something bigger here if it’s kept up
Did you watch the one about fixed fighting and pro/catch wrestling. Ive been a part of the pro wrestling business my whole life, but despite knowing everything they covered in that video, I was still extremely impressed at how well it was put together. If you haven't watched it yet, definitely give it a look; it's OUTSTANDING
Yuki Nakai is a true warrior. What an incredible show of heart and grit. He is featured in the rickson gracie documentary called choke. It's a great watch
Ahhh yes the feels you get from this vid. Back in the mid 2000’s one of my best childhood friends and I used to consume any MMA vid we could find online, buy all the PPV’s, try out the moves in the backyard and such. His favorite fighters were Shinya Aoki, Genki Sudo & Sean Sherk which was funny because he was such a big dude - like same frame as Arnold Schwarzenegger big, that he actually built out in his 20’s to look like Arnold. Man this brings me back to those glory days... Sadly my buddies life was cut short a couple years after he got out of the Army. RIP Big Man. Love you brother. ✌️ & ❤
This was epic! More of these please, thanks! He used to be my favorite ground player back in the day, I'd never seen anyone like him. Everyone else in pride were just berserker's like Wand but this dude man, was inspiring.
Dude I agree that we need more videos like this and I too enjoyed Aoki and Sakuraba however Wanderlei was more than a berserker and there were so many highly skilled fighters in all areas like Rampage, Hendo, Igor, the Nogeira brothers, Shogun, Fedor, Crocop, Mark Hunt, Anderson Silva, etc etc
As a huge and lifelong fan of Aoki, I really appreciate this video... As a huge and lifelong fan of MMA, I really appreciate this channel... Great job B, Great job Max!, And great job MMA on point
I'm Japanese🇯🇵 Aoki and Sexyama are one of the most famous and hated MMA fighter in Japan. Most of Japanese don't like them but i met Aoki in BJJ dojo once and he was very nice to everybody!! Since then i respect Aoki
5:00 Gordeau "laid on the punishment" by repeatedly eye gouging Nakai, he barely landed any actual punches once they got in the clinch. His excuse was that the fight had stalled, which only occurred because Gordeau hooked his arm over the ropes and refused to let go to avoid getting taken down.
@@CrZY_DnKS Better The Brothers of Blood Nate and Nick were brothers who shared a passion for mixed martial arts (MMA). They trained together, fought together and dreamed of becoming champions in the UFC. Their father, Mike, was a former boxer who coached them and supported them in their career. Their mother, Lisa, was a nurse who worried about their safety but loved them unconditionally. One day, they received a letter from Japan that changed their lives forever. It was from a man named Hiroshi Nakamura, who claimed to be their half-brother. He said that he was the son of Mike and a Japanese woman named Yuki, whom Mike had an affair with when he visited Japan 20 years ago. He said that he had recently discovered the truth about his father and wanted to meet his brothers. Nate and Nick were shocked and angry. They confronted their father, who admitted his infidelity and begged for forgiveness. He said that he loved Lisa and never meant to hurt her or his sons. He said that he had cut off contact with Yuki after she told him she was pregnant and never knew about Hiroshi until now. Lisa was heartbroken and furious. She packed her bags and left Mike, saying that she needed some time to think. Nick and Nate were torn between their loyalty to their mother and their curiosity about their brother. They decided to go to Japan to meet Hiroshi and hear his side of the story. They flew to Tokyo and met Hiroshi at a hotel lobby. He greeted them warmly and hugged them. He looked like a younger version of Mike, with dark hair and eyes. He spoke fluent English with a slight accent. He told them that he was also an MMA fighter who competed in the Rizin Fighting Federation (RFF), one of the biggest promotions in Japan. He said that he had grown up with Yuki in a small town near Kyoto. She had raised him alone as a single mother until she died of cancer two years ago. He said that before she died, she gave him a letter that Mike had written to her when he left Japan. It was full of love and regret for leaving her and their unborn child behind. It also contained Mike's address in America. Hiroshi said that he felt betrayed by his father but also curious about his family in America. He decided to write to Mike after Yuki's funeral but never got a reply until recently. He said that he wanted to get to know Nate and Nick better as brothers but also as rivals in MMA. He challenged them both to fight him in RFF's next event in three months' time. Nick and Nate were stunned by Hiroshi's story and challenge. They felt conflicted about fighting their own brother but also intrigued by his skills as an MMA fighter. They agreed to accept his challenge on one condition: they would fight each other first in UFC's next event in two months' time. They reasoned that they needed to settle their own issues before facing Hiroshi as brothers or enemies. They returned to America with mixed feelings: resentment towards their father; sympathy for their mother; curiosity about their brother; excitement for their fights; fear for their future. The Brothers of Blood saga had begun.
@@Timbales1979 Fedor whispered in my ear many decades ago Keep your LOVED 1 ( family friends crew etc ) away from the shet show in the land of Lies That MAN is NOT his Brother ...Hope you had fun in class right Now ❤️👨👩👧👧🌍
Now THIS is what I would like to see far more often from MMA On Point. The unending top ten videos really get old. However, this was outstanding, one of their best. Even without the skills of Tommy! Very well done MMA On Point! Bravo!!
Another cracking documentary gents. The history and storylines of MMA was what got me invested in the sport initially and it’s great to see that history done justice in videos like this 👏
This was such an enjoyable and informative video especially for fans like me who wasn't following during this era. It's so interesting knowing all the background and build-up, ty MMA on point for all these well researched bangers
Absolutely phenomenal video. Lots of the information in there. I was not aware of, although I have seen almost all of his fights. Thank you very much for putting it together.
Love when you guys do these types of videos. Been a fan of the sport for around 7-8 years and there’s a lot of things I know but it s great when you guys enhance my knowledge of it with these comprehensive videos showing respect to legends of the sport
These kinds of videos are fucking awesome, and it warms my heart to see one of the best MMA coverage channels taking the time to organize the fascinating history of our beloved sport for new and old fans alike. Great work on this presentation.
MMA on Point continuing to create incredible content. I enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed watching The Smashing Machine for the first time. Shinya has always deserved this credit and you guys did it so well. Keep expanding and giving us this unmatched content!
Brilliant video and the first time I've ever watched bailyun all the way through. None of the usual theatrics and mugging. Just a really good narration. I hope he keeps this style going forward. Excellent narration on an excellent video.
Forgot to note that Aoki intentionally pinned the arm so HE COULDNT TAP! You can see it when you watch it, he wanted the VERBAL tap, he wanted to make the man say he quit.
I still remember first getting into the sport in 1995. It’s good to hear such great fans are coming as late as 2010 and continues. How times have changed.
