This just made me feel sad for Giant Silva, he really didn’t seem quite with it the whole time. I salute both fighters, but this gave me sad Andre the Giant vibes.
@@wojtekpawlowski5660 the design of the human body had limits to weight and stress, even if everything is proportionate, it's just not designed to be that big ( if an ant grew 1000 times bigger, the legs would snap from the weight of the body)
I thought it a very dangerous move considering he was close to getting avalanched. I haven't seen either of these fighters before, I assumed Silva would go for leg strikes right away. shrugs.
if Giant Silva had the range of motion of his limbs as a normal person, and good mobility all round he would be a threat for sure, but the guy could barely move. get him on his back and he`s like a tortoise, just flailing.
His size has always been his biggest weakness. Being big is useful to a point, after that it becomes a massive hinderance bc the human body’s structure isn’t meant to be that big
He does not want to fight, he is a giant but sensitive. He seems like a really nice person who was used and abused by people who exploited him financially!
Damn this was amazing in how savage and raw it is. This reminds me of how I viewed Pride FC/Japanese MMA as the Raw Underground version of UFC. That awesome front roll into the leg takedown is something from a videogame.
No matter how big you are, we feel pain and get broken bones the same way mostly. Still, super impressive how a guy literally half the size dominated the Giant!
Silva was just as big as young in-his-prime Andre and probably just as strong... still didn't help. You don't see giants dominating MMA shows pretty much ever, do you? Their incredible biology just doesn't work that well when it comes to competing in legitimate professional sports against top-class competitors.
@Jeffery Elliott: Every fight I've been in was up against a guy biggee than me, as I'm 5'6". Not that I go looking for them, but when I have no choice to defend my self my speed was always my winning advantage. Don't fuck with the little dude!
Yeah, but this could have easily turned into a disaster for him, no offence to Silva, but it was like jumping under an elephant , things could have gone very wrong for him. 😄
I don't think many people know who you're referring too, I guess you're right though, I always wondered about that. Shame, I wish we were all perfect. shrugs...
i've always say that they should bring it back. you can never count someone out just because of weight or height. a champion in open weight with pride rules is the real king off fighters. someone has to bring it back or at least make a tournament once a year where its open weight and all the best fighters join worldwide no restrictions
The giant is more of a freak show than a fighter. He hasn't had much of a career as a professional fighter, with his record being mostly made up of losses. He used to play basketball and was part of the WWF(now WWE).
He was there originally. In the 90s as part of the Oddities with kurrgan ( who interestingly went on to play the Uber Immortal in 300 and the Giant in the Robert Downey Jr Sherlock Holmes)
Wow dudes & dudettes I almost forgot about Giant Silva now this Giant use to be in WWF Era knowing it took two different Pro Wrestling Trainers such as: [Dory Funk Jr & Tom Prichard] to train Giant Silva but this Giant didn't stick around the Pro Wrestling business and went off to become a MMA Fighter but this big dude took a crash course in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under two: [Gracie Family Members] to train Giant Silva but surprisingly this dude is still around and kicking it still at his age of 60 but it was surprisingly he lost to a shorter dude name: [Ikuhisa Minowa] but I respect this Giant dude that he came this far like any other fighters before him he did what he set out to do to make it happen for himself but the beginning of this Giant career he should have taken up Boxing training or Kickboxing or both Boxing & Kickboxing trainings to really hold his own against any other mma fighters but Surprisingly he still holding his own with both Pro Wrestling & Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but now or days he is retired let's just he's been retired since 2011 working at some bar joint as bouncer that is all he doing nowadays he maybe retired but he'll be my kind of a mma fighter always don't you think so dudes & dudettes.!?¡¿ ♤♡♧◇€£₩¥☆
No I don't. He's a 1 and 5. this was sad and exploitive. He was fighting legit mma guys and could've been hurt. He was basically an ameture going against pros.
Gigantism is a disability for a reason. His body can barely function with his organs running overtime just to keep him alive. Doesn’t leave much room for him to be explosive
Minowa deserve credit for cunning and wise plan to shoot for the leg by faking over hand round house punch everytime he begin squatting. And then he opened giants face to massive knee shot by getting giant fosused on painful gut bombs. He had a good plan and it rolled out well.
Silva would've done better in the World Wrestling Federation. I think the only reason he didn't have a shot there was because it was the Attitude Era. If he'd arrived a few years earlier and was promoted as an unstoppable monster, he would've been a lot more successful in the west.
мужик прямо с дивана в домашних трико подловили на улице шёл за пивом с утра пригласили сообразить на двойничёк а тут такое.. не хорошо не по християнски..
I guess it's possible to be too big to fight. Guy just stood still and couldn't bring himself to even try to move away when the other guy came with the takedown.
Ikuhisha wins but that seemed like huge mistake to almost get trapped under Silva. I've never seen Silva fight, I assumed he would go for leg strikes, I guess he's a grappler.
Imagine the two of them fighting for real.....and you know if Pride had never went out of business they would have tried their damndest to make that match.
I love those old school PRIDE FC fights.

Dude beat up the gentle giant who thought he was there to do a photo shoot.
He was confronted once by Winny the Kid
This just made me feel sad for Giant Silva, he really didn’t seem quite with it the whole time. I salute both fighters, but this gave me sad Andre the Giant vibes.
Same. I think he's just too gentle to be a fighter.
@@ibanez2010 The dude is almost 60!
@@FordPickUPRedwell yeah now, not at the time 😭
Acho que até eu treinando valendo durante uns três meses ganho desse grandalhão,😅, isso que tenho só 1,70 kkk
andre the giant was massive asshole tho
The toll that being a giant takes on you body makes fighting almost impossible. People criticizing him are ignorant.
Why impossible?
@@wojtekpawlowski5660 It’s not impossible, but giants have a lot of physical issues. Against a competent fighter, they don’t stand much chance.
I think he has the same affliction Andre the Giant had. He seemed not to have any fight savy at all. Very sad.
@@wojtekpawlowski5660 the design of the human body had limits to weight and stress, even if everything is proportionate, it's just not designed to be that big ( if an ant grew 1000 times bigger, the legs would snap from the weight of the body)
@@markboudreau1410 But Andre the Giant had more flexibility (until his later years) and was a lot stronger plus knew how to fight.
That move by the Japanese guy was impressive. I've never seen that before
Tony Ferguson did it as well as conor mcgregor in his fight against Holloway
That rolling single leg
I thought it a very dangerous move considering
he was close to getting avalanched.
I haven't seen either of these fighters before,
I assumed Silva would go for leg strikes
right away. shrugs.
He saw enough anime to try it
Silva didn't look like he wanted to fight at all. Meanwhile the other gentleman is going all out.
No, Silva can't fight he's too big plain and simple.
Being shorter he was able to sneak those knees in, it was like silva had only very little training anyway
PRIDE never dies👊🏼 i actually enjoy watching the freakshow fights
Joe Rogan would think differently.
@@jeffstanthose slobbin on dat rogan knob

It would more polite to call them David vs Goliath fights but, yeah, those kinds of fights are fun.

Literally half the size would be 3' 6"
He wasn't fighting a qualified
opponent. This was just show,
kind of sad , like exploitation.
@@RodCalidge people are not using the term literal correctly
@@RodCalidgethink he meant in weight.. lil guy is like 190 Silva is like 380+
I would have loved to see Andre the giant in the UFC.😮
A bit before his time but He probably would have dominated it with his size and strength
Silva was just as big as young in-his-prime Andre and probably just as strong... still didn't help. You don't see giants dominating MMA shows pretty much ever, do you? Their incredible biology just doesn't work that well when it comes to competing in legitimate professional sports against top-class competitors.
@@bryannimmo8548 Silva did not know how to fight (you can tell as he always went for that Kimura). Andre however did.
Andre would split silva down the middle he was a class athlete and stronger than 10 men combined , no UFC fighter would have chance.

I think that knee to the face broke the giant's cheekbone. He put his hand up there like he was hurt.
Pride never die
Dead.
where can i learn that front rolling sommersault take down at? this is the secret move i been looking for since my journey in jiujitsu.
this guy brings WWE-like entertainment into real fight, he's a Giant Slayer 😄
The real giant Slayer
The BIG man was just way too sluggish and slow and the little guy had great take down skills with all knees and elbows is all it took !!!
@Jeffery Elliott: Every fight I've been in was up against a guy biggee than me, as I'm 5'6". Not that I go looking for them, but when I have no choice to defend my self my speed was always my winning advantage.
Don't fuck with the little dude!
Aww big guy is clearly disabled 😭😭
He got the same disease that Jaws and Andre the Giant had
Yes. A form a giantism. It is heartbreaking how young they tend to die at that size
@@zabukoii8081 yes I agree, I knew a guy that went college with the same thing, and he was depressed af about it
@@zabukoii8081 The organs have to work so damn hard to keep that body alive. It is a sad defect.
Yeah, so why is he there. Its weird
I'm only 5'6" and love these because it shows how bad an idea it is to fuck with the little guy.
Yeah, but this could have easily
turned into a disaster for him,
no offence to Silva, but it was like
jumping under an elephant , things
could have gone very wrong for him.
😄
Ikuhisha was 30 years old and Silva nearly 43 when this fight took place.
Bro took one short knee and gave up… Pride was always just a freak show back then.
Seeing Minowa taking on Tony Robbins (ahem* Silva) is the best motivating lesson one could ever have.
I don't think many people know who
you're referring too, I guess you're
right though, I always wondered about that.
Shame, I wish we were all perfect. shrugs...
GIANT Silva is a very nice guy 😉
Yeaah i like u upload pride n strikeforce fight
Is this staged.Its worse than WWE with Andre the giant
Amazing move 👏🏻
Minowaman king of the freak fights.........always fighting and usually beating the bigger man
Помню когда был подростком смотрел и удивлялся этому парню красавчик
I didn't know that Dee Snider was a MMA fighter too.
The proverbial David vs Goliath. Love it. I respect both combatants. Osu.
Left the Giant crying even after the very quick one round! 😂🤣😅👊
GIANT have an great Heart!
He quit real quick after getting a knee to the face
"Ahhhhhuuuuhhhh!"
🤣
ゴング鳴って起き上がった時のシルバの「痛～…」みたいなの可愛いwww

poor giant, he was beat up by this bully in red tights
lol
Although slow, Silva has power and his body size makes submissions nearly impossible
A knee to the head when grounded is allowed? Brutal.
Those were the times when rules weren't so strict, that's why you can have fights like this with a bigger guy versus smaller fighter.
Foot stomps, soccer kicks, ECT.go watch the axe murder in his pride days.its brutal.
Wtf!!! How its possible!!
The japanses just pay much for him to lose
Giant Silva needs to go to the WWE.
He was there originally. In the 90s as part of the Oddities with kurrgan ( who interestingly went on to play the Uber Immortal in 300 and the Giant in the Robert Downey Jr Sherlock Holmes)
Just the size difference makes this look like a kid fighting his dad lol
David contre Goliath. Ikuhisa est un excellent combattant !
Why no UFC for 2 weeks?

Looked like giant should have decked him in the beginning. Impressive.

What's the use of being a giant in a fight but u can barely move around

If that big dude went hiking or fishing, guarantee he'd get shot because someone thought he's a Sasquatch.
Essa foi boa ! Legal, muito legal.
Silva would've done better in the World Wrestling Federation. I think the only reason he didn't have a shot there was because it was the Attitude Era. If he'd arrived a few years earlier and was promoted as an unstoppable monster, he would've been a lot more successful in the west.
The thumbnail like so others
looks like CLICKBAIT, but
it's NOT!!! LOL
big dude is wearing the sweatpants he slept in
lmao, I was wondering about that too.. haha
Seems like a nice guy though, I hope he is
doing well.
he could break his arm if he want 1:53
A more appropriate sport for the big guy might be exhibition wrestling.
He was a WWE wrestler back in '98. Couldn't hack it there, either.
Giants Silva worked as a bouncer in NYC on Bleeker Street
That's not a giant! He; only 7'0 CClowns
Luar biasa bisa mengalahkan orang yg tidak sepadan ow luar biasa👍👍👍👍👍
That look like a giant snapping turtle fighting a chihuahua. Got the big fellow on his back and he could not recover
Seriously people fall for this is this the WWE of Japan??
Minowa is only 181 lbs? I wouldn't weigh less than 210 lbs going against that giant!

If watching a fight was a fever dream......🥴
Big man didn't even throw a punch. This fight was rigged.
Big guys don't move fast enough but it's hell if they do get ahold of your ass
it'd be probably a better fight against Hongman Choi 😅
edit: ok they already fought before, which was more entertaining
Wot would dee snider say?we ARE gonna take it evermore!
Is that giant related to Andre the giant ?
Kinda reminds me of Andre the Giant
Ikuhisha wins but that seemed like
huge mistake to almost get trapped
under Silva. I've never seen Silva fight,
I assumed he would go for leg strikes,
I guess he's a grappler.
O gigante infelizmente não sabe nem se defender.
Com o porte que esse gigante têm se tivesse sido bem treinado chegar perto seria bem dificil.
It a mind thing think and move like a ninja is all in the brain no matter the size or strength

He moved as well as his friend Khali
