Severely overweight people (a la butterbean) have a hard time rolling over. If you are large enough you can keep them down with good technique. Then it's just a matter of draining their stamina which happens faster the larger the body is.
@@justaneditygangstar If memory serves, he was only given a couple months to train it max, I think a single month.

Open weight aside Pride rules are so just much more entertaining. The cooked ruleset UFC uses favors BJJ as as technically skilled as it is it makes for boring matches. Pride was way more entertaining.
@@stevepalpatine2828 the one thing I don’t like about modern ufc/mma in general is that there are no more distinct styles anymore (from what I’ve seen). Now it’s just “mixed martial artist vs mixed martial artist” instead of something like “Muay Thai vs kung fu”.
@@part2jotaroandpals567 I know what you mean, I think thats an inevitable consequence of the sports though. Fighters want to win, way back around UFC 1 and before you could see stuff like a Muay Thai guy vs a Judoka, but as people started to find out what worked and what didn't in their various styles it was inevitable they would evolve. Cut the fat, as it were. You take what works and discard the rest. It would be good to see for example a TK guy vs Kung Fu though. Some of those early UFC fights were great. What happened though I think the ruleset gave BJJ and grapplers an advantage so you started to see more of that, untill eventually everyone was incorporating it.
@@stevepalpatine2828 yeah I completely understand that eventually people would just keep the stuff that works and cut the stuff that doesn’t. It was just so cool seeing a guy in his Gi go up against someone in boxing shorts and boots and just go to town

Wow, didn't think it would go out like that. In the end, and no dishonor, it's best to tap than lose a elbow. Great and entertaining fight! Butterbean is always entertaining and didn't disappoint here. Minowa is someone i learned of from this, that 2nd drop kick aside, he was amazing.
You'll always see Minowa do that. As soon as the fight is over, he'll help his opponent up, give him a hug etc. TOTAL CLASS Nobody else like him before or since, he's my fave❤
Minowa is my fave fighter of all time. The man's a hero, he would take a fight with a steamroller and he'd try to cartwheel kick it just to give the people what they want. The dude just never gives up.

Fact is Butterbean was a great sport. Instead of relying on his knockout boxing prowess, he relied more on his less-confident ground game.
Rrr
Tap it before you snap it
Bean probably tapped a bit early cuz he was aware that right arm was his meal ticket.
Minowa's thought process:
"my dropkick just failed,
what to do next?
another one!"
😆
I can kinda understand the logic though, nobody expects 2 dropkicks in a row
The fart sound at 3:38 😂
Way to go Minowa, thank you,great fight.
Thank you for uploading this

Unbelievable !!! Overcoming that huge weight advantage of Butterbean.
It proves their is a difference between just boxing and wrestling.
I will never understand why butterbean went for the ground game, the guy is a striker
Minowa knew Butterbean was powerful, it's why he directly went for drop kicks, his most powerful strike.

A GREAT FIGHT OF STRENGTH 💪, BIG RESPECT FOR BOTH MEN.
🧐💯🤩🤔🇬🇧🗣️👍
Butterbean didn't even wait for his arm to be fully straight. He knew as soon as he lost his hand grip that it was over.
For the lack of damage inflicted to either fighter, this might as well have been a strict grappling match.
