The crippler! The first man I ever legally placed a bet on! I bet $20 on him to win by KO against some guy named Anderson.
Great bet casual😂
@@Guru-ue2ypwas 18 and thought that Leben was going to walk through the trash fighter from pride.. I had a hard time watching Pride fights at that time. Was about as wrong as I could have been 😂
@@Guru-ue2yp "joined 2021" were you even alive then casual?
@@Guru-ue2ypyou weren’t even around when that fight happened lmfao
Takes courage to admit that.
Fighter, coach, ref, judge, gym owner. Full fighter’s arc.
This guy just needs to write a book and his story is complete.
What a legend, this guy headbutted punches to break hands.
Love to see Chris looking so good and healthy. Dude has a hard a life and lots of up and downs but one of the nicest most down to earth people I have ever met.
Literally! Man sounds good and healthy! Considering how many head shots the man has taken over the years
I was gonna comment but you said everything I wanted to say. Chris is just a good human being. He’s had problems like everyone has, but he’s always been humble throughout.
Sounds like he is in good shape and good health. Congratulations on a great fifhting career, successful gym, judging and reffing. BRAVO Leben
Seriously happy to see folks like Chris Leben, Mike Perry and others succeed within the realm of this insane sport!
It's an absolute pleasure to have witnessed many of these fights live and in person.
MUCH RESPECT
It's AWESOME to see the Crippler succeeding like this after fighting, the man has literally helped shape MMA as a whole! So many great memories of Chris Leben!!
“How do you like your coffee?”
“Black . . . with a little cream, a little sugar.”
😂
Chris Leben and Sean need to do a pod cast lol
So glad to see Chris doing well in life. Amazing turn around from where he looked to be headed when we were all introduced to him years ago, at least from the outside looking in.
Stoked for Chris!
Helen brightens the day always
Nina Drama pales in comparison
Love it i really hope to see Jason Miller go down similar path once he gets his head back right ✅ 🙏
Helen's interviews always have funny moments. 😅
I remember on one of my brothers first fights as an amateur seeing him ref there for the first time and my brother and I were like "hey bro, is that Chris Leben?" and we were both like no way. Great memories, seeing a bunch of fighters in the back while preparing to make the walk.
Thank you Helen. Well done! We all love the Crippler!
Such a fun interview and it’s really nice to see Leben so happy. Plus the bonus for me was reconfirming how big of a Seinfeld fan Chael is for pulling the old buying funny stories from Chris like Peterman did with Kramer.
Chris you are the man. Keep it professional bro.
Since the Ultimate Fighter season 1 I been a fan of Leban. Crazy good dude, and I mean crazy as in loco lol
Chael and Leben are both 🐐 🐐
Happy to see Leben doing well.
I love this dude so much that my 7yr old son knows him and loves him
I like Chris, definitely a likable guy. He seems to be really enjoying life. Good for him.
I’m so Happy Chris has got his head together. He’s a true gift to the sport
Leben looks really good. Great to see.
happy for Chris, he's been through a lot.
I am very happy for Chris. It's nice to see him excited about the new directions his life is going in.
Another fun and fantastic interview by (your one and only) Hell Yee. Leben seems so cool, doing his stuff post fighting. An excellent template for other fighters; unless the monetize like O'Malley or something superstar like that.
That was Chael being a good friend… and to do the funny bit from Seinfeld
Congratulations Chris! good to see you doing so well!
What a success story from what he came from and his addiction. I love his laugh Lmaoooo
Happy for you Chris, you deserve it…
Glad to see The Crippler in such a state. This dude is a living legend. Underrated as a fighter, a person, and a businessman. Shout out to Doctor Octagon.
Chris has come a LONG way since we first saw him on TUF... Definite respect to the man!
Warms your heart to see this lad doing so well now. Hard times make harder men 👏💪
Love you Chris! Thank you for all your work!!!❤
best episode ever: multiple hot Helens and top notch stories
Proud of my boy.
Great interview, more stories
Wish Leben all the best!! ❤
I love Chris . What a warrior.
Chris Leban is still my favorite TUF competitor.
Mine too and hate Koscheck and Southworth.
"Is Big Booty Bob coming back?" - Josh Koscheck
legend!
Leben & Bonner both were at the same crossroads. I love that Chris found his path and wish that Stephen had found his. Great interview
He looks really healthy and well, good to see him doing well.
He literally put UFC on the map from TUF season one.
Still makes me laugh thinking about him ‘spritzing’ that guys pillow.
Chris is an awesome dude. We really do need more ex pro fighters putting the post career work in to become excellent referees and judges. You can see by the look in his eyes when he's doing the job how focused he is.
I love ya Chris been following all along brother 👊🏻😎 my favourite fighter of all time
Big love for big chris always ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Love this dude
Love Chris
love chris
Was there ever a bad Leben fight? Love this guy and glad he's still involved. 🤙🏼
Chris is a legend
I’m glad that Leben is doing much better!!!!
Legend
Good job Helen. Awesome 👍
He autographed a dollar bill in the mgm lobby for me way back 👊🏻
Yo leben you got your respect in this game. Legend!
Back when he was younger, I really couldn't stand Chris. As he matured, trained harder and drank less, I saw a different man. Since then I've really liked him and I'm happy to see him still part of the community all these years later. Great to hear his thoughts and see him running a gym.
Big fan of The Crippler! I like seeing this side of him, seems like a cool dude.
probably the best judge ever
lol, what great stories from The Crippler himself. Thank you Helen.
Yeah, good onya Chrisco! you're a fuckin' legend mate!
OG. Period. Dot.
❤
They don't build em like Chris anymore....glad he's a ref now lord knows we need all the solid officials we can get.....and the 'crippler?....doesn't get any better than this!! 💯
So many fighters complain about refs and judges ,Leben stepped up
Absolutely awesome!!!😂😂😂
Always loved the crippler and Helen you are to hot for the schmo lol seriously you are always on point and also ready to joke. I want a Helen yee in my life❤️
Leben is a legend.
Herb Dean seems so wholesome
I fuckin love this guy 💪😎 but I love Helen more 😍
Glad to see Chris doing much better. I doubt he would be here if kept on the path he was on
The crippler Leben. 💯💯💯🤜🏻🧱 A legend. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My favorite fighter ever! On TuF 1 when he drank all night and then was the only one to finish the test run was so awersome haha. Dude is inhuman. Can't believe hes still going so hard after how bad his heart issue was.
Chris owes cheal two hundred bucks!
Imagine if Chris would have been around for bare knuckle? Great seeing him judging. His MMA knowledge and coaching skills are top notch.
Best chin in the game
Great to see him doing well! He was a bit of a hot head / air head on TUF!!
Good too see Chris isn't Drunk and going to jail!....lmao...Love the Crippler!
Splurgeo paintings! Dope gym Chris.
Portland legend
The first time he told this story was way funnier. Said the deer was in a car for 2 weeks and mom had him take a bite. And he went to the hospital
Javier Mendez gave you credit for discovering the Volk news 💪🏼💪🏼
Love the Crippler!
Legend… Chris bring back the Red hair 🙏
Didn't see the "skillsaw" coming oh gawd
Buying stories is literally a Seinfeld episode
Chris is the reason TUF was successful and TUF was the reason the UFC was successful
must watch lol
I drank with Leben one night in Hawaii at a UFC viewing event at a bar. He would order ( waitress understood quickly ) a shot of Jameson with his regular drink, and one in between drinks. I was wasted, but I'm guessing 10 drinks and 20 shots...no shit
Lebron looks good. Happy for him that he’s doing well. He’s had a rough life
The Cat Smasher 😊
It’s pretty scary when I don’t know if it’s a man or woman I don’t want to offend anybody but their head is bigger than Chris Leben said there’s been scientific studies done on Chris Leben‘s head how big it is the actual human head weighs approximately 5 pounds Chris Leben’s head weighs 28 1/2 pounds not only is he is smart, intelligent fighter, but now he’s crossed over into being a referee. Congratulations but you are still a fighter in my mind and one hell of a fighter that never quit, and I don’t think I ever seen you got beaten you just rolled with the punches. You’re a true champion Chris Leben.
Chris Leben v Joey Diaz v Sean Strickland would go nuclear
I got some stories of my own but I like how you tell the story.
Lebens voice actually sounds just like Charles
dude chris is a jack of all trades frfr, to cool.
Helen is such a beautiful classy lady.
😬😬 Helen Yee here 😬😬
