A legend. This is what I love about mma, he doesn't speak the same verbal language as a lot of his opponents, but combat is so universal that it feels as though we know him well through that universal language.
So humble. One of my absolute favorite pioneers.
Still can't understand how he fought Royce Gracie for 90+ minutes!
they realy fought a bout 5/8 minutes all together. the rest of the match was pretty much hanging in the ropes holding position.
Then had the guts to fight Igor Vovchanchyn for another 15 minutes or so....
by Pride
It was just ,,,,amazing... I respect Kazushi Sakuraba,Royce gracie also.
Plexiun it was more than 90 minutes. More like 100 minutes. Then he came back in the same night and fought a draw after almost submitting #2 ranked heavyweight at the time Igor Vovchachyn for another 10 minutes. Royce was fighting defensively, escaping Sakuraba's submission attacks.
When asked about the Gracies, he said i just happened to win. That is very humble there.
Its obvious...SAKURABA is down to earth guy...
What a throwback , legend , old school ,
How can we all not respect this warrior.
Great work Ariel & Team
Great photo also
From this clip you can tell why Ariel Helwani is the best MMA journalist. He was asking the best questions and the Brazilian journalists need to stop asking Brazil specific questions if they even wanna come close to Ariel.
Love Sakuraba for his mental strength and will......
These were his greatest strengths
To this day he is still my favourite.
Folks these days don't know how good he was.
All the dislikes are from people with the last name Gracie
Actually the gracies are very fond of him. watch the "post fight videos"
The only Gracie who probably hates Saku is Royler since it was almost a complete humiliation.
Had a cheerful reunion at the Bellator event. Great to see them together.
If you watch videos of royce with sakuraba is not a bad blood there, same with post fight interview with renzo, the only hate is the ppl who doesn’t like the gracie fam and the ppl who don’t care
I like this kind of guy = so nice and so dangerous at the same time !
Best opponent Gracie family ever fought. Amazing man Sakuraba!
the Japanese abused him, he fought outside his weight class against guys who were roided out of there brains! his body took really hard punishment and now he's paying the price. I think he was the greatest grappler in MMA
thx! I agree, but a few Japanese, including me, still admire him
he is one of the greatest MMA pioneers
He was very, very technical too
The way he mixes his agility and grappling is phenomenal.
2000年あたり1Rの時間が15分とかだったけど、無駄な時間はなく固唾を飲んで観てたな。
違いを作れる選手
Liveでホイス戦を観てたけどタオル投入された時、魂が震えたよね
15×6ラウンド戦ったのはほんま凄かったですよね〜。無制限ラウンドという先の見えない戦いでしたが。
Imagine having the nickname "gracie killer". Just think about that for a moment....
his nick was Gracie Hunter, not Killer. Gracie Killer was Wallid Ishmail for dominating Gracie's in BJJ comp. Saku's other nicks were IQ Wrestler and Pro Wrestling Messiah, both given to him as well as earned.
What a badass... he sounds punchy
Exasperated. He sounds Japanese
I love how he is called alledracie killer, when it is plainly obvious the Gracie's were trying to hunt him to redeem their reputation as the best grapplers in the world.
kazushi sakuraba a true fighter and most of all a humble ,down to earth person .
The Gracies were so humble in accepting their defeat that they nicknamed Sakuraba the Japanese Gracie. lol
bout damn time, this man was the best of the best. what a warrior.
桜庭かっこいいぜ！
THE MAN!!!!!!!
one of the Greatest Ever. You'd have to see it to believe just how good he was on ;-)
Sakuraba the great.....! man just watch his fightssssss......!
Ariel Helwani is Douche bag for trying to get Saku to say something bad about anyone. Just irritates me that he is trying to cause some beef. Saku is the man and is answering these questions like a true pro! Sakuraba for life!
He is not only strong but also great personality.If you can't control your shitty ego,which means weak not strong.
😂😂😂 I love this man he is a legend...... smoking away 😂😂😂
Genio!!
One part that wasn't translated fully ... when asked what his relationship is with martial arts now, he mentioned "kansetsu-waza" (joint locking techniques)
よくわかっていませんが通訳さんはかなり有能そう
Best mma fighter of all time period
I don’t speak a lick of Japanese but I can tell he’s a funny guy
THE BEST JJB SAKARUBA
Who is this lady questioning Sakuraba?? His nickname was Always "The Gracie Hunter", not Gracie Killer... SMH mann, I've been following MMA fr a long time, and seein/hearin new MMA Media members come out of the woodwork trying to cover this sport is laughable. they're getting paid to mispronounce names, refer to fighters as Different nicknames, askin questions that have been answered over and over in fighter's careers... real talk, it's honestly mind-boggling.
Maybe , and this is far fetched and purposely so, she was confusing Sak with Alex Stiebling and getting there nicknames muddled up?...hahaha jk. Yeah, it's pretty crazy. I've been around the fight game for over twenty years as well and I think, in many ways, in terms of reporters etc, its gotten a LOT worse .
I'm actually prefer to call him Gracie Killer because he was't hunting Gracie Family, Gracies were hunting him.
yup, the Gracie Killer was Wallid Ishmail. who dominated the Gracie's in BJJ competition.
Fought royce for 90mins the half hour later fought a heavyweight igor for 15mins untill his body gave out from exhaustion! A total of 105mins in one night!
The best Atletes in the world are always so nice.
Love this guy.
People that white men translater reminds me of that white fat guy from the Last Samurai Lol ;)
So great if you can talk Japanese
2018 Bellator
Kazushi Sakuraba vs Anthony "Rumble" Johnson
nic niczo honestly I wouldn't be surprised if sak took rumbles back a rnc him lmfao
Gacie Killer Titles >1000 times any Weight Division World Championship Titles in any World wide Promotions.
SAKURABAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An icon the best of the best.
0:19 - “I just happened to win.”
Said the legend who gave Gracies their first MMA loss;
Who submitted 2 Gracies, made 1 quit and the other one wish he quit.
#prideisforever
The man fought gracie..... for 90 minutes.
Mecha-Art then fought heavyweight igor Vovchanchyn 45mins later for 15 mins untill his body gave out from exhaustion
Sakuraba: わたしは にほんごがすこししかはなせませすこしだいじょうぶですは にほんごがすこししかはなせませすこしだいじょうぶです
Translator: lol wtf i guess ok, you know
Your Japanese is very good. I am Japanese who is poor at English and likes MMA.
He's tired of questions and needs a smoke
ははは
Marlon Sandro
He looks like Shavkat rakhmonov
SAKURABA!!!!!! 39 Neva die!!!!
(but please for the love of god retire)
Which one is better the Japanese "original" Jiujitsu or the BJJ?
Soo much late. He should be inducted years ago
WAR-SAKU
sometimes stupid questions
I just now notices that most of the jujitsu on ufc are getting beat left and right
laib xwb tell that to demian maia
T-Bool ..Demian maia is a good and dangerous fighter . .but I'm just talking about the older champions like anderson silva..jose aldo...Ronda rousey..,ete.....
T-Bool ...Tyrone Woodley gonna beat him next....
poontin?
sushi yummy lol
wrestler many fish in the ocean 😅😅😅😅😅
fighting a great white was his biggest challenge to date he say lol😅😅
yawn
worst translator!
Im a Japanese and this translator missed a lot of parts what Saku said.
but he speaks Japanese pretty well.
I don't understand how this guy belongs in the "UFC" hall of fame. I could understand the "MMA" hall of fame, but the UFC?!? The guy fought twice for the UFC back in 1997, and one of them was a NC...
KMA645 ufc did buy pride so pride is the ufc
Ok, I guess that makes sense
This guy was just a punching ball and now because of political correctness we are forced diversity down our throat. Disappointed in Dana White as I thought he was a republican. Won’t watch the ufc anymore
