What Happened To Frank Mir’s Right Arm? 

Thank you, he’s one of my favorite fighters. People only remember him in the WWE, or know him because of his Chuck Liddell/Tito Ortiz. He was also a pioneer for the UFC sorry that’s Ken Shamrock.

I really hope you make a full recovery. 💪😎👍

Do you still grapple? What's the rehab program like to get strength back

Well maybe stop doing shit that makes it worse. Are you about to get a belt with a huge contract attached? You wanna throw a baseball to your son?

You ain't gettin paid. Time to stop

Damn wish you had been referred to a physical therapist first so you wouldn’t have had to spend all that cash man

Yawn

Osceola from the song Seminole wind or are you just from Florida?

Apparently he wasn't that wise considering hearing him try to pump 400 pounds without properly training to get back there.

age can change you for the better or worse

I think you just needed to grow up

Orndorff was the first person I thought about when I watched this

same here

Same

Orndoff passed away recently too from dementia.

Bas Rutten has/had it bad as well.

Same here

Never give up

30s 40s is when you've got to really invest time and money into health stuff and make it part of the routine

Exactly once you hit 40 your body changes like night and day,unless you've kept in shape your whole life,even then it starts to get difficult.

@@beardoallin657unless you are yoel romero !

Have you thought about steroids? Growth hormone would help too although expensive

@@beardoallin657its not actually “night and day”, if you abused your body in your 20s and 30s with injuries, alcohol, poor sleep and diet then yes, otherwise nothing major happens at 40 lol

Lmao 😢

Man... We all wish he didn't have that crash

One of my favorite HW’s ever.. beast on the ground

Frank Mir was not one of the best heavyweights ever. That's crazy. He was better than your average bear, but, was never among the truly elite.

@@DrFrankenschtein Yes he was. Of his era he was one of the top on the planet, but he had his accident. He wasn’t the same after that.

For his time he was great true but that was 15+ years ago, if you took prime Mir and put him against any top 10 HW in the last 10 years he wouldn't fare so well. Francis would knock his head off, Cormier could out wrestle him, Stipe would dominate him ect ect. Yeah he was great back then but "All time" I can name way better fighters. I love Frank, been a fan since he broke Tim Sylvia's arm, but he's not a top 10 goat HW

one of the goats ..i love frank what a warrior ..one of my fav fighters

NOT MORE FIGHTS, MORE COMMENTATING ONLY

@@leelunk8235 I think that’s what he meant boss

@@leelunk8235 it’s pretty clear he meant commentate on more fights.

@@lukaCOOKIE HEY HE SHOULD LEARN HOW TO WRITE THEN

@@leelunk8235 everyone else got it except you bro, sounds like it's your problem

Yep, Cormier is getting to be as annoying as Costas in his bias as a commentator.

Dude definitely & i thought of it right away... suxx Also I drive a lot & 4 hour drives are such a bitch on my back now =/

Bas Rutten’s big book of combat. “Dadada dadada ding”- Bas Rutten

What?

@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu Can opener is an illegal (in unified rules of MMA) submission that can fuck you up bad.

@@leeham6230 thanks

Bas Rutten got staph infection in his arm. He has a big hole in his armpit from it because he didn’t get the staph infection treated quick enough. And no it will go back to normal size for Bas

Pretty sure bas had a neck infusion which results in muscle atrophy in the arms

I saw a bio on Bas where he states his arm is definitely not better...basically 1/2 strength compared to his good arm

@@brantonbuckley9142 pretty sure the Staph infection is actually Kevin Randleman

@@brantonbuckley9142 never heard that Bas had a staph infection, but as Girth say here...i`ve heard Bas talk about his friend Kevin Randleman that had the exact same things you mention Bas had.

A novice in Brock Lesnar fully controlled him after 3 years of MMA training.

@@Tourist-Q. And a lifetime of amateur wrestling, Lesnar was a NCAA D1 Champ.

@@GMPGMP-jp5ut yea but only 3 years of MMA... He never had anything to do with boxing, kicking, submission holds before... Frank Mir should have been superior to him at that time, but he wasn't. He just got overpowered. Did Frank start deadlifting, squatting & benching after that loss? He knew from their first fight what was coming at him... A takedown machine with a strong ground & pound. He saw how Brock handled Heath Herring. Frank's training approach changed after that fight, but he should have trained like that years before that fight. Just like Cain Velasquez.

@R I'm talking about the rematch you mook

​@Tourist-Q. You clearly know nothing about fighting. Wrestling is huge to MMA and Brock was a national champion plus a steroided up dude. You've never been in a fight in your life and Frank beat him the first time. You dumb fuck

Wrong the body can handle the training and fights cause they barely fight 2 times a year for most. The problem tho is once you get your first serious injury it starts a snowball effect for more injuries. I was 22 before I got my first injury which caused my body to compensate with other muscle groups which would lead to different injuries. You can work back up to your old strength but you can feel the difference, you can actually feel where your threshold is and where you need to stop to not aggravate it again which slows further strength gains a lot

@@cadebeek3111 the first thing any good trainer will tell you is the the human fist is not designed for punching. Combat sports and fighting have been made into entertainment, but it’s not natural. Humans have been able to do some really amazing things with our body…but doesn’t mean we should be doing these things. Respect to athletes and performers but it’s true, the human body weren’t designed for all of this

@@GrizZLyGuy what are they designed for

@@sh3tpostsgamertime204 are you asking me what our hands are designed for? Is that a serious question?

@@GrizZLyGuy sure

Microdosing mushroom

I do bands for recovery too. Helps

Did you get surgery?

@@B.C.61 Yes I had to have the disks out they go in through the front Had a metal cage put in Leaves a scar on the side of the throat

😢☹️

@Lefroy and you are?? Lol

You should still go back to the doctor and get treated, don’t worry about paying that shit back, it’s nonsense.

"I didn't go to my follow up appointments because I'm poor" You don't actually have to pay it back... I owe $57k in medical bills and my credit is 719.

I hurt my shoulder in HS lifting it's never been the same

@@joebenson528 Is there no time limit to when you'd have to pay it back by?

@@joebenson528 I love YT comments

It might be from his motorcycle wreck too...

Look up neck traction, at your own risk....

The strangest things can tweak your neck. I had a minor tweak the other day from doing dips. Very odd. I had a training partner fuck his neck badly turning his neck during a squat.

So true, he's literally a Legend of the sport. I think he's been top level since his early 20's. he had a motprcycle accident after winning the HW belt 1st time and came back after 2 years out. He beat Tim Sylvia in his prime (snapped his arm), first person to submit Big Nog (snapped his arm also) & tapped Brock Lesnar. High level Jujitsu, moved liked a weight class below and could hit. He has a high level fight IQ. It would be good to see the UFC bring him back for commentary with Joe and the team. Wish him a speedy recovery.

I'm so sorry to hear that Sean and I can't imagine how it would be. Thanks for sharing your story because there are lessons for us to learn from it. I hope you get well soon and get back to doing well with yourself. Bless.

It will never be 100%. I had a discectomy like 15 yrs ago and it's better than when it happened but now I have inflammation from scar tissue. It's chronic pain that your body kinda gets used to. Don't ever do pain killers.

Power in chief did the pain go away ? I’m about to get surgery for that soon

@@jeepernj99 Yes, the reason I got the surgery is because the pain was so bad, I couldn't sleep properly or do any normal tasks. As soon as I had surgery and the nerve was released, the pain was gone and I was just left with the weakness.

i have a c7 moderate compression. no pain but numbness in forefinger and thumb and partial numbness in the arm. strength is ok.. tricep is 80% of the other arm but bicep is actually stronger. but... worried it will get worse and also the tricep has already shrunk when the nerve was initially compressed. would you recommend the op?

@@scottjp31 At that stage no, strength and size will probably come back as long as the nerve isn't still trapped. I've had the same nerve impingement 3 times, it was only the last time I was recommended surgery because there was no improvement and the pain was bad at all times. The 2 times before that, strength and size came back, but it did take a few months.

You can’t be A goat only THE goat Such an overused phrase these days 😔

@@justchris123 not really, it's like saying he was one of the greats. like a gladiator of modern times

@@marcJoel you know what goat stands for right? There can only be one greatest of anything. The clue is in the name. I agree he’s one of the greats though.

@@justchris123 looks like i triggered another snowflake on youtube. what ever shall i do!?? 🤣🤣

@@marcJoel there's always that guy that wants to complain about the pettiest things. the male karens are on the rise!

The Maine-iac Tim Sylvia disagrees.

Yeah, some things with nerves and tendons can be reversed, depending obviously on injury severity etc. But even then, those can take SO LONG to heal. Sometimes months of rehab.

Said perfectly

You also pay for lifting in your 20's and 30's your spine was never meant to take any form of strain or very heavy weight for reps. Our bodies can do amazing things and crunch high numbers but there is a price. Hardening shins, punching walls and getting punched in the face also comes back to haunt us. Be lean and never get obsessed or have an ego when it comes to physical exercise. Frank and Ronnie made millions from their sport there are normal people who use drugs and train like that not knowing the damage and pain they have to endure.

@@seizonsha wise words

I hear ya man. I’m 38, use to lift big in my 20’s to early 30’s, had 3 shoulder operations and I just can’t do any big lifts anymore. Just try to focus on form/technique and having a healthy muscle balance to my body. Now that I don’t have to train for performance in sports and work (military).

@@seizonsha yeah I feel that . At the same time I get it tho as to why ppl go above and beyond . We all just wanna be healthy and or got egos we kinda wanna feed . But one thing ppl never think about is the longevity of it . I assume everyone wants the here and satisfaction of it and ironic enough we end up paying for it in the longrun . I like guys like Mike ohearn who lifts but he breaks it down and asks the lifter the importance of their goals . Rather then just picking it up n putting it back down . Our only true competition should be ourselves but not everyone is wired like that and I completely understand I cast no shade at anybody with dreams

Got the same vertebrae fused in April. In less than a week I totally lost my pectoral and triceps . And struggled to do a push-up (sharp pain and cramps immediately) How long do you take to get your strength back?

How does that happen? Is it genetic?

I had it from wear and tear practicing BJJ and judo

@@ko2ni I've done a little no gi bjj but not much, what aspects of it do you think cause problems for the neck? Was thinking if joining a club again

@@ko2ni Within about 6 months I had about 75% of my old strength back. It gradually improved until about after two years, I was nearly back to my previous level of strength in my right arm. While I was recovering, my right arm felt like giving out while doing push ups long before my left arm was tired, and my body would tilt sideways (toward the stronger side) when I attempted pull ups. Now both arms feel about even when doing push ups, and I can do a "perfectly straight" pull up. But I still have a bit of numbness in my index finger. It feels like I have very thin latex gloves on (just on my right index finger). Also, my extensor strength (i.e. opening the hands from a fist) is noticeably weaker in my right index finger to this day. Thankfully, gripping or pinching strength hasn't been affected to any noticeable degree. I hope you'll recover soon, man!

Damn... Stay strong

god bless you

Wow, that's losing over a kilo a day, you must have eaten nothing

I had the same thing last year .. had a c6/c7 hernition for years without it bothering me .. started getting bad knots in my upper trap and then outta nowhere had shooting pains in the back of my shoulder , lat , tricep, forearm and my first 3 fingers went numb .. it's been 7 months and I'm finally close to 90% but not gonna lie , Everytime I get a twinge in my arm I get nervous .. unless you have had nerve pain it's really hard to describe how much it effects you mentally and emotionally. Hope you heal up quick

@@Mj-bg2uj wow that describes my situation exactly. Glad to hear you got 90% back. I would take that in heart beat right now. I have a certvical traction device I use daily and fnally became a back sleeper so those two things have done wonders for my back and neck so far. Good luck to you!

@@themikejonesinvesting when you say cervical traction device do you mean one of those pillows that go around your neck that you pump up ??? I ended up with 2 epidurals but honestly I should have stopped after the first because it made such a huge improvement. Yeah i can't sleep on my side either , it's a guaranteed stiff neck ..

@@Mj-bg2uj How are you feeling now buddy? Got this in June and my tricep head is busted and index finger numb, been doing PT for a month and I'm able to do a couple push-ups now but I honestly can't tell if my tricep is recovering or not, the pain is definitely gone though.

@@lightfm90 glad to hear your on the mend .. I’ve learned when u have these kinds of injuries they just take time .. there is very rarely that 1 modality that makes you instantly better .. eventually the nerves become less irritated and it just gradually goes away .. my thumb , pointer and index were completely numb and I had pain shooting into my forearm like it was a bad toothache.. even after the epidurals in my neck , the pain decreased drastically but getting feeling back in my fingers was just gradual over a few weeks . Stay the course , keep stretching and getting treatment and stay away from things that irritate it . Hope you have a speedy recovery ! Reach out with any questions, happy to help .

You should go to the doctor and find out what's going on. You may have some kind of nerve injury. If that's true, and your dominant arm is still bigger than the other arm, you may have a chance of avoiding permanent nerve damage.

Seriously

That was me when I was a kid.

I think he said before his freshman year so that would be 13 or 14.

Makes you wonder what kind of career he could've had if he didn't get into that motorcycle accident.

You have to take hgh but then you'd lose your hair

Scary stuff

Maybe the vax

@@drunvert not even vaxxed my man. 32 yrs old. Perfect health up until i was diagnosed with covid. Shit hasn’t been the same since.

@@mrthriftgod damn. At least you can rule out the clot shot. I didn't get the whatever it was shot either. 👍

100% true

So he's payed by only being able to bench press 225 for 4 reps 🤣 gtfo here.

@@AJ-xv7oh I'm talking about his arm atrophying.

Wow, its soo shocking.

Haha..I got that reference.
