Biggest Can Crushers in MMA

- The term "can crusher" refers to a fighter who pads their record fighting less-then-stellar competition. While more associated with boxing, MMA's seen a number of fighters build deceptively strong records, only to come unstuck the moment their opponents took an upturn in quality.

Imagine being told you are fighting someone with a losing record and then Mark Hunt is staring at you across the ring
@Casey Stiltner might be the last night
I'd be pissed
*gulp*
"Good news we finally found a guy to build up your confidence. We did our research. Guy has a losing record, he's 40, has been finished 12 times, and looks like he works at a burger joint."
Lol
"Page returned to can crushing after the loss." That made me laugh too much.
Lol that line was literally exactly my thoughts when I saw the opponents they were giving him after the loss
Lol that was the punchline, and it was it expertly executed
Well mvp actually was doing better than lima til he got caught
I cracked up when I saw the title and the thumbnail
I literally read this comment precisely as he said it in the video and promptly cracked the fuck up
Michael "I only play on easy mode" Page.
They give him all they got.... Bellator is trash. Lima is the only contender at 170 and he was losing his MVP fight till that slip and fluke uppercut.
Fishing-alone-on-purpose The Bellator 170 division Is pretty stacked
@@MRmanbearpig1993 If a 3-1 guy was the only thing they could offer him after losing to Lima... Yeah. They couldn't give him Rory MacDonald or a rematch with Lima. A 3-1 guy. MVP is a can crusher. An entertaining one, but still a can crusher
I admit, he needs to stop taking random fights and he consistently fight contenders but he looked good against both Daley & Lima. Daley just held him and Lima got rocked just before MVP blindly rushed in dropped his guard.
@@MRmanbearpig1993 truth
Dirty ass move by Nadia Kassem throwing that kick simultaneously with the glove touch. Glad she’s getting smashed in the big leagues.
@Grey Man what do you mean, shit reffing? It's in the rules that if a fighter's mouthpiece comes out, the ref is expected to stop the fight to give the fighter their mouthpiece.
@@RoemDaug they dont have to stop it, otherwise as soon as anyone got rocked they'd just spit their mouthguard out
@@MrEvilsockpuppet yeah, they don't have to but doing so isn't shit reffing. It's looking out for the well-being of the fighter...which is the primary job of a referee.
@@RoemDaug stopping the fight while someone's getting pummelled because their mouthpiece came out is shit reffing, no question.
@@RoemDaug definitely bad reffing. Lots of examples of good reffing when a mouth piece comes out, waiting for a break in the action and stopping the fight to give the fighter the mouth piece
"Boasting an 0-11 record"
What?
Seriously. I cant imagine going more than 0-3 before finding a new dream. I guess some people will just take the money...
@Sean Havlin 😂😂
Yeah man after losing like 4 in a row you'd think they would find something else to do for themselves
Never heard of Johnny Knoxville?
I'm glad all MMA fans agree with can crusher MVP
Where's Fedor? Wasn't he 15-0 when he fought a guy that was 0-1? Even MVP has never done that. And that 1 loss? Against Cro Cop! The PRIDE boys were the biggest can crushers.
@@ChrisDynamo Fedor crushed a few cans but also beat top fighters
I agree he's crushed a few but his can crushing IMO is overblown pre grand prix. He fought a bunch of decent vets and smashed them all.
Since the grand prix his matchmaking is pretty weak, there's no question about that. Here's hoping MVP/Larkin gets announced ASAP.
@@ChrisDynamo Sounds like you don't know anything about MMA. Must have started watching 1-2 years ago.
Prior to his Lima loss he beat Cyborg, Caveman rickels, and Paul Daly. Please explain how that constitutes being a "can crusher" all 3 of those dudes are rough vets with winning records, Dave rickels is the weakest of them and his record is 21-6 against other decent dudes... its always someone crushing cans. And Fedor? Really Fedor, get outta here lol, who else in the history of mma has taken out as many champions?
Khabib pre ufc was a can crushing machine
his pre ufc fights shouldnt even be included on his record.
Khabib has a win over almost every top contender in lightweight lmao hed still he championship if he so wanted to
@@jacobwheeler2462 did I say he wouldn't?
He also has several fights with cans in the UFC.
He was a crushing machine with everyone, can or elite lol
I mean, fair play to Bellator with Page. They created a guy who gave the believable illusion to the casual viewer that he was genuinely one of the best welterweights in the world.
And then Lima beat some realism into his record.
Would like to see a rematch tho he did well leading up to it but I still think lima would win again
He did turn paul daley into a panic wrestler
@@richardlee5486 Yeah but it was a what? 35/36 year old Daley who was never elite when he was at his best. And 48-47 on all 3 cards was hardly a masterclass.
@@danieldevine7216 I personally think that was more a case of Lima taking the time to work him out (as Page is ridiculously unorthodox) than Page causing Lima genuine problems. If Page is to have a chance against the top guys he has to get the stoppage in round 1 or forget about it because they will find their timing with him.
What has been annoying to me ever since Page's MMA debut, is that, ok he fights cans & washed up fighters to get cool looking KOs, that's his gimmick, we get it.
But then, why doesn't he at least fight more often?
His schedule is that of a fighter who competes against actual threats, when, considering the level of his opponents, he could probably fight as often as Travis Fulton and Shannon "The Cannon" Ritch
(as a sidenote, I'm so happy that Fulton's retirement bout was against Shannon; the dude with the most fights in MMA vs the guy with the second most MMA fights; it was so weird how they'd never faced each other before; must have had something to do with Fulton being a HW, and Ritch being a MW/LHW...)
Back to Venom; to be fair, he did pick up the slack in 2019, and started to fight more often than twice a year. And aside from MMA he also boxed twice, against a dude with a record of 1 win and 12 losses, and another who was 1 and 5.
So he finally got busy these last couple years, but at 33... should have picked up the pace earlier, instead of wasting his prime years fighting 2 cans a year in average.
Fulton isn't a can crusher moreso a dude who just wanted to fight 3 times a week. I used to fight in Iowa in those promotions as well as fighting in promotions ran by Fulton. Dude would just show up and fight anybody. In those days we didn't have weight classes or distinctions in weight class/career level. You literally fought whoever was there. He doesn't taut his 300+ fight record, promotors do to get their money's worth on tickets. Dude is legit humble.
Nice to hear the other side of the story, I could believe it.
@@joshferguson1124 hey man! you were on tuf right? you'r the little guy who wore a cowboy style hat and a flyweight or bantamweight if remember correctly??
It's also worth notice that Fulton had LOST more fights than most fights had FOUGHT. His final record was 257-55-10. He probably DID fight a lot of nobodies, but if you decide to take literally any fight (which you'd have to, to fight an average of once every 24.6 days for 21 years, 8 months, and 9 days), you're going to fight a lot of nobodies. Most of his fights on Tapology don't even list a promotion, just "Iowa Regional" or "Minnesota Regional".
Well this didn't age well Fulton killed himself in prison after pleading guilty to federal child pornography charges
@@IncredibleMD we would literally go to a bar in small town in the Midwest and fight in an mma cage set up. You could fight a guy who had never trained or fight a 7-3 pro as a 1-0 ammy and the pro is 60lbs heavier (this happened to me once.) I once even saw a boxing match between a chick who barely boxed and a big ass drunk dude wearing no shirt and stonewashed jeans and she beat the brakes off of him for five rounds straight until he puked in the ring 😂
Douglas Lima flicked him like a damn mosquito.
Then that must be a pretty strong mosquito if he got wobbled by one.
Lima for puzzles on stand up and controlled on the ground
Why was that blonde girl wearing everyday clothes?
who made her fight in the first place
Not sure but i think she was just watching fights in the crowd, and she filled in on a few minutes notice for a fighter that could not make it to the fight
she knew she was gettin ko'd in less than 30'' so didnt even bother m8
That was pretty messed up. She just wanted to speak to the manager.
Xplode didn’t have a dress code they let dudes fight in normal shirts
Travis Fulton has a record like somebody that plays EA UFC everyday after work.
You mean, that never goes to work?
That's me. I play when I get off work. Smh still can't fooking win
to be fair, maybe he just likes mma but knows he cant compete at higher levels. The number of losses shows he loses plenty. So he's probably fighting right at the level he belongs.
@@dash4800 still a higher level than me and you
8:04 Why is she so proud for defeating literally a soccer mom with no fighting experience?
She needed to fight one more time to go pro by law.
It was her first pro fight. Of course, when you already have five amateur bouts and have been training for a few years with Liz Carmouche and your opponent is a soccer mom, it was like putting Valentina Shevchenko against my older sister on Val's debut. A murder in the making.
yea that was totally fked up, shame on everyone who let that fight happen and no idea why the soccer mom took that fight.
That was really disgusting
Lima sucks,she would get destroyed in the ufc.
At what point do you say that fighting is definitely not for me when you are 0-11, it makes no sense.
They love punishment
some guys(mostly people who are poor and looking to make quick cash) get paid to pad up records.
cocaine is expensive
I had a kickboxing fight on a Friday night where my opponent got knocked out in a boxing match the saturday before that.
You do realize the video said her opponents combined record was 0-11, right?
"Facing a 1-14 opponent three times in a span of a month" LMAO
And with 3 first round knockouts each time. Talk about CTE, Jesus Christ that guy is probably a vegetable now.
Why tf are you still fighting if u have 1 win 14 losses?!
@@alexstercomp money
7:52 - Katie Castro someones mom, untrained in there...WTH 😐
For some reason the intro music, and the classic ufc version of it just elevates hype levels like nothing else.
lima mvp fight will be my all time favorite example of derailing the hype train
Jason reinhardt was my coach a few years back and he is one of the nicest most genuine people you could ever meet and a great coach, he had a significant injury that stopped him from fighting but man woulda fought anyone
All the reports I've heard suggest the same thing about Jason. TBH I felt a little bad including him on the video when I realised how nice the guy seems to be.
Jason has even addressed his record online and basically said he fought whoever was there.
7:53 ... it looks like they literally pulled somebody out the audience to fight and they even fought like it.
8:34 Those kicks tho
Deadly
MVP’s recorded is as padded as a helmet made by an overprotective parent.
Get your furry bs out of mma
@PED GSP did you forget you already made a comment?
@PED GSP While I feel you were a little rough on the guy, I do agree. Would've been a decent joke if they left it at "as padded as a helmet," but the "made by an overprotective parent," part was lame and ruined it completely. Much too wordy for a one-liner.
whahahahaha
Seeing Lima starch Page never gets old
Ahhh, yes: the Ilima McFarlane "execution via fist" fight. That was sad.
7:48 wtf why would they let her fight??
Sean o malley where is he
Salty Sean 'Zelenoff' O'myleg
@@Mr850man if he thinks he's still undefeated, he and Charlie should train together
Wineland is not a can, and Omalley is unranked
Nah. His competition has been pretty low-level thus far, but Wineland is definitely not a can lol
Eddie Wineland and Jose Alberto Quinonez aren't cans bro
He didn’t do too bad against Lima but Lima caught that ass lol
You could play that match back 40 times and Lima would win every time, he didn’t get caught he finally fought somebody with skill. Could you imagine how screwed MVP would be if he had to fight a top tier wrestler? He’d be fucked.
Logan Dohn mayne he gets better bellator does feed him low level comp tho
@@Hydrant_Hero “With some skill.”
Err... even these “tomato cans” have been emitted to one of the world largest mma promotions. Some of them have winning records, and many aren’t tomato cans, rather journey men. Michael page is still playing leagues above what you are welcome to critique. This isn’t street beefs.
@@SageSea1 he fought a guy who was 2-3, that says enough
@@SageSea1 also I can critique a low level fighter if I want to, guy tries to be Silva with the showboating but doesn't have the skill to back it up. Put him in the UFC and he would lose every fight
You forgot Salty Sean O'Malley
Valerie Loureda is gonna be in a video like this soon
Might be a hot take but I’d like to submit Rickson Gracie for consideration since he claims to be undefeated in 400 fights lol
my guy Rickson is regarded as the best bjj artist by literally everyone who knows anything about bjj..royce said he could roll with Rickson a 100 times and he would submit him a 100 times
didn't Helio himself debunk that? like yea. Rickson is the best of the best but dont go padding your body count bro.
@@shivanshuraturi3451 Yeah, so they can sell Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. It's a damn sales pitch. If he was so good, he would have excelled or been dominant in elite organizations, right? I mean, he's clearly better than, Damion Maia, right?
@@judahsoremy9857 You realize he's in his 60s right?
They tried to turn Sage Northcutt into a can crusher. Turns out he is the can itself.
Huh? Sage's opponents have been pretty high level. Even the guy he fought in ONE is pretty big in the kickboxing community
@@ballinboxer3676 The only big name he fought, Cosmo Alexandre, knocked him out brutally. Bryan Barbarena, great fighter but not elite material, gave him a beating. So... Not quite close, buddy.
@@marlanvittorin I don't think you're getting the concept of can crushing. Michael Page is seen as a can crusher because he constantly fights guys that are VERY low level competition as seen in the 3-1 guy he fought after losing. Sage Northcutt, aside from his regional days, has not fought cans. He has won against guys at the same level as him like Ottow and Gouti and has lost against guys who are comparable to him in skill level like Gall and has also lost against guys who are just better than him like Cosmo. That's not can crushing.
@@ballinboxer3676 Actually, nice point, sir. Maybe the hype behind Sage made me think that he was can crushing lower competition fighters. But he is not top notch. I agree with you.
Greetings from the best country to avoid in South America.
@@marlanvittorin Yeah, understandable. Very thin line between a can crusher and a hype train.
Jason Reinhart lol! My first mma fight was for his illinois CFC promotion back in 2007. That dude is a trip.
he use to be my coach, awesome guy lol
Its so frustrating watching MVP, I thought he was giving a good account of himself VS Lima and yet I have to watch him fight 3-48 Doorman John Smith instead
This needs way more views. Learnt a lot
8:04 that's a Karen KO. Sad to see her compete in such a dubious promotion combined with her "skills".
The fact that mvp went right back to can crushing is what sealed the deal to me. Most guys would try to run it back asap.
You think he picks his fights? Hes fighting Lima again now. You clearly have 0 fighting experience as anyone with any or even any sense knows that to get a call from the UFC or Bellator you are not a "can".
@@user-fm6yf5hh7q 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The woman near the end deffo wanted to see the manager after her loss.
It’s fascinating how MVP went back into Can Crushing immediately after the Lima fight. Idk if he should fire or give his manager a raise
KOing a 1 win in 14 opponent 3 times in a month is the ultimate CCing lol
4:08 that guy got the life chokeslammed out of him.
Crazy how normal this is in boxing
The last was like..
Karen: i want the manager
Clerk:shes in the cage.
OMG I'm a huge mma fan and watch all mma can videos and Jason Reindhart is from my home town. That's hilarious that I happen to click on a video and see him on this video. Too funny
i'm from france but have jason in friends on my fb and he's really look like a good guy! we talked about mma sure but cbd too when he was making his business and i learn some tips on cbd because of him, he as taken the time to speak multiple time with me but i really doesnt have to !
Your from Decatur too?
In boxing Tyson Furys little brother has fought 5 fights against guys with 4 wins and 100 odd losses between them all, can crusher.
Yeah it's hilarious how on twitter this was pointed out and the Love Island cult of sycophants (usually tarted up 20 year old girls) launched a tirade against his detractors and it managed to trend. For some reason he's showcased on tv and the commentators always and add something in like "well, his opponent is a hard man, takes any fight offered to him and that's why his record is the way it is".
My God your intro brings me back wish the ufc still used that track
While I'm not disagreeing with MVP, calling a 17-1 fighter beating a 13-4 fighter is hardly a can crush.
Sean McCorkle is all i'm saying
i would love for the UFC to bing back that opening riff
Limas ko was thing of technical beauty
MVP is no slouch he holds win over Santos , Daley, Anderson , and Lima now . Even in the first fight he was giving Lima problems before being clipped . Caveman Rickels quit mid fight .. Love him or hate him, he is one of the most entertaining fighter .
expecting khabib to be in here tbh. dude legit fought bums and it was 2 round fights
Nadia and suman both come from Australian top team, half of them have padded records. The other half are legit fighters.
Where's Rickson Gracie? Beating a bunch of inexperienced pro wrestlers warrants a spot on this list.
I think no one even gives a damn about him to out him on a list
Considering I'm planning a top five on the greatest Gracies that may soon change.
@@ItsNotCagefighting sounds good. In reference to Rickson, be sure to examine the fighting records and experience of the guys he beat. In my opinion the only truly experienced martial artist that Rickson fought during his 'MMA' career was Yuki Nakai. A man who had just gotten his eye gouged out in his previous fight minutes before and who Rickson outweighed by 30 lbs. The other guys were mostly Japanese pro wrestling showmen with little to no actual fighting experience at the time.
Rickson was the best Gracie. Everyone says it.
Page's best win before Daley was actually the underrated Fernando Gonzalez. Couldn't make weight to save his life but when they fought he was 6-0 in Bellator, all against mid level vets (he didn't get cans because they didn't care about him unlike MVP).
@Raheem Nazir True. It's telling his two best wins on paper were both snoozers.
Don did so good Big John wanted to give him a hug
Man, that soccer mom should've thought more about her decision to take on an unsanctioned MMA bout to feed her kids. The resulting curbstomping was entertaining though.
Dude said he gave his parents the crabs like it was normal thing to do
Hector lombard better be on here
You got the thumbnail right
Was expecting a 10 min video of Sean O'Malley fighting home depot employees
one of the most important video in the mma community. theres a few "high level" names who deserve a spot on the list. sean omalley. some will argue most of khabibs record
8:00 is literally called "tomato can mma"
Last clip. See how aggressive big john was. The same tackle he did to some guy and broke his nose 😂
That poor woman at 7:56 looks more like she's about to go to work on a Zoom call than fight someone.
There's a new can crusher in the yard, and its name is dillon dannis.
Oh man I was at that fight where Travis Fulton slammed the dude in the Gi pants. I remember Karl Malone was there and Tank Abbott showed up for like 10 seconds.
1:46 One of the most satisfying moments in combat sports history - shutting up the obnoxious Page! Afterward, Lima just strolled off like he was on a boardwalk in Florida!
Why go to the circus when you can watch bellator at home?
The circus doesn't pad the show with a hundred adverts between performances.
Man, say what you will about can crushers, but you can't deny these guys work hard. Goddam that's a lot of fights.
great use of histrionic !!
You can do a part 2 and have o malley at the top of this list
Travis Iron Man Fulton is still my fav fighter. You step in 320+ times, win or lose, against another human being intent to hurt you and turn out better than a scrambled egg, then you can start talking shit.
Venom was the first that came mind for me!
I like this new channel and I subscribed. But I do not like the original UFC music in the beginning LOL. Don't like the poster from it either. I actually watched the very first UFC live on TV. Glad to see another fan from all the way back
Altough it hurts to say it, you missed Dan Severn, he is a legend but he got a lot of cuestionable bouts.
Cus he was older ppl like mvp or nadia kassem have no excuse since they are still young dan was fighting well into his 50’s
@@kevinsmoon3257 no thats no excuse
Dan does have a lot of padding in his record, but to his credit he's beaten more top 10 contenders/world champions then all the people on this list combined.
@@southtxguitarist8926 No I haven't, it is true he's beaten more top 10 contenders/world champions than anybody else on this list. Examples:
Ken shamrock
Oleg Taktarov
Forrest Griffin
Pat Miletich (only reason that fight was a draw was because there were no judges)
Jeremy Horn (only reason that fight was a draw was because there were no judges)
Travis Fulton (not counting the two fixed fights)
Justin Eilers
Homer Moore
Dan Christison
Paul Buentello
Ebenezer Fontes Braga
Wes Sims
Kimo Leopoldo (only reason that fight was a draw was because there were no judges)
Tank Abbott
Anthony Macias
Shannon Ritch (not counting the fixed fight)
They're all just outshined by the 100 plus bums he's beat.
Julio Cesar. 28-0 record in Brazil before signing with Bellator aged 20 in 2014. The late Jordan Parsons dominated him before he went back to crushing cans in Brazil. Currently has a 35-1 record.
the least for last. "400 undefeated streetfights"
Add Sean O'Malley to this list
Man I'd like to see 50 more of these examples lol
Jason Reinhardt made his mma debut at 35 and was 13 and 0 and fought 1 and 1 joe Santiago , 0-8 del Hawkins and 1-5 josh wise
😂😂😂 He fought a can named Cabbage Carrera.
Cabbage is a borderline can. He never had the best record or the biggest wins (Joe Riggs and Justin Eilers were probably the biggest) but the guy was honestly one of the most iron-chinned fighters you’ve ever seen.
I think MVP is a savage. Don't agree he's a can cruncher or gatekeeper. I think it's that Lima is wayyy underrated, and one of the best 170s of all time
Some of the fighters in Xplode looked like they were picked out of the crowd, and never threw a punch in their life........what a joke
Everytime I watch your video I think its the sonic theme during the introduction, tell me that's it ?
Yep. I put in the first video as a joke and once I saw the positive response it became my trademark.
McFarlane beat up that woman so badly she probably needed to have a word with the manager.
5:43 It's pronounced like the state Montana. She's American not Brazilian.
In Reinhardt case old boy here doesn't mention when fought against Joe, he was above his weight class. lauzon fought at 155, Reinhardt was 135.
As for fulton he fought everybody.
Johnny Walker
This is the real life equvilant of a smurf in video games
Never trust the Brits to perform on the big stage, damn
And I'm British btw. So it's not bashing.
@@ItsNotCagefighting I took it as an insult that remembered the game against Denmark and thought yeah he is probably right
Mvps loss to Lima is not a bad loss. Lima Is a beast...made a silly mistake but was actually hurting Lima in the fight before getting caught. His record is obviously suspect due to the lack of quality opponents but I still think hes a good fighter and still would like to see how he does against big names. Bellator need to get him fighting big names so they're to blame too.
Lol if you knock a Karen out you're gonna end your whole promotion
THAT BLONDE ANGRY MOMMA :DDDD im dead
People here in Hawaii cant accept the fact that Illima is a can crusher. They're more concerned with praying every Hawaii fighter is the next BJ Penn.
I rewinded like 10times when I've seen the Karen in tiger leggings LOLOLOLOLOL
what a fucking warrior you have to be to go 0-11 and keep on competing. Respect!
6:14 soooo DIRTY
Karma dropped her seconds later
Lima KOing MVP is one of my favorite mma moments of all time
7:56 "Hey Jimmy ! There's your mom on tv !"
even can-crushers can be entertaining; they just don't belong on a GOAT list
