Bas probably won’t remember this story..: but, if you want an insight into his character read on: back in 2003 I was an early member of the mma site Sherdog. One day some other members were antagonizing me and making fun of me (for some reason that has since slipped my mind). I never returned an insult for their insult and simply apologized to them. The next day I got a private message from Bas Rutten saying that he saw that argument and liked that I didn’t respond back to them in anger… so he asked for my address and me mailed me, for free, his DVD/CD collection of his fight training series. I couldn’t believe it. A few days later in the mail I got the collection. He’s a good man
Hardest thing to do, also for me (in the past), is not to reply. I have been doing that for awhile now so its so much easier. People are people, they base their opinion of you based on one moment/comment you said or even a comment from an douchebag that sounded a little like yours, and because of that they react. You can never change that, there will always be people like that, but you can change yourself and how you deal with it. I visualize an angry toddler, works all the time, haha!
His humor and outgoing personality makes him a great person to hang out with. Love listening to his stories! He's always making me laugh when I listen to him tell his stories.
Bas you need to be an official commentator in the UFC, they have good ones as well so it will be a good combination and great conversations. Vote Bas for the UFC!
@@darkoverllord you cant have only ex fighters on a commentary desk. anik is actually very good at what he is doing. he is supposed to take care of commercials and improvise on dead time. you need at least one person with journalism background for that role. bisping and bas would be a nice combination though since they both have crazy bar fight stories
Man Bas has lived one hell of a life. All of his stories are so entertaining. He is someone that i could have a beer with and just listen to him tell stories all night.
Oh respect for Mr Bas Rutten. Fine person. Great legend and great human being. Love his unique humor and his determination. Humble enough to recognize and lean from his deficiencys, that's in fact how he became a very complete fighter
Occasionally you encounter athletes whose personality is next level just like their ability. Valentino Rossi, Helio Castroneves, Bas Ruttan….. Thanks for the inspiration! Cheers!
One day I was really bummed out and you responded to one of my comments ment a lot to me thanks your one of the best fighters ever wish you’d post more videos
Shalom Bas. Vrede zij met jou. Dank je voor alles wat je gedaan hebt (en nog steeds doet) in de vechtsport en voor Nederland.' Je bent 1 van de beste vechtsporters die ik ooit heb mogen ervaren. May onze hemelse Vader jou in goeie gezondheid houden. Mag hij jou en je familie uitbundig zegenen. Dank je voor je geduld om dit te lezen. Amen.
Great story Bas. I grew up in a mining town in Australia and it seemed every weekend there was an altercation of some kind. I moved to the cities later in life and met people who have never had a fight. More often than not after the fight you would be sharing a beer in the bar. People ask me who I would least like to fight and I said you. You are what we call a true hard man. Someone who can really fight and take tremendous punishment. Best wishes to you and yours.
