Apr 15, 2012 - he should have countered when that charing side kick came. xD i wouldve moved out the way with ease. so many things u can do from there

xlordbimpyx Says:

Apr 15, 2012 - and wtf why is he kicking him on the head when he knocks him out -_-. disrespectful and rude. it made him look like a cocky ass baster standing ontop of the world

Apr 18, 2012 - I watched them... The first three are just clips of knockouts which isnt really the measure of a top class fighter...any lucky punk in the ufc can do that. And the last clip was looking more promising but the guy applied no capoeira and beat him with bjj... How do these clips disagree with what I wrote? I am all for tradition, and personally I prefer traditional MAs. But MMA is MMA and has been proven to be the way forward.

Gman052488 Says:

Apr 18, 2012 - I'm not making an argument for tradition, Lyoto Machida modified karate for MMA, and in the same fashion Marcus "Lelo" Aurelio and Marcus Vinicios did it with capoeira. you wanted to see a clip of capoeira winning in MMA and you got it now your trying to change the terms of the victory. Capoeira fighters are rising, competitors that can pull multiple victories. it is a legitimate fighting style.

Apr 20, 2012 - He isnt a capoeirist is a clown,Marcus lelo aurelio and marcus vinicious, they are a true capoeirists

fivos833 Says:

Apr 21, 2012 - What you mean is that he modified it for UFC and had to incorporate other styles and training methods therefore making his art a mixed martial art. Which is my point... you have to mix it up regardless of where you start from if you want to have a career in professional fighting, a career in enforcement, etc

Gman052488 Says:

Apr 21, 2012 - 1. Lyoto Machida was fighting long before he enter UFC.2. you keep changing what you want. first you wanted to see a capoeirista win in MMA. then you said those wins don't count cause of this and that. Now your saying they need to mix it up but you scolded one of the fighters for doing that earlier. 3. I delivered what you originally asked. it's not my fault that you keep changing the criteria.

Apr 21, 2012 - What?! So Eddy Gordo was just dancing all this time? Wow! I imagine him kicking all of the world's asses if he would be fighting.

fivos833 Says:

Apr 23, 2012 - 1. Lyoto Machida I looked on the internet, he has never trained in capoeira...so why are you talking about him????2. I dont keep changing. I said someone who studies capoeira and fights in a cage will get his ass handed to them because as a martial art it is too limited. Except if he wins by luck (i.e. kick/punch that become a KO) As most are.3. You didnt deliver anything...you showed me 2 knockouts and a submission. Just appreciate it for what it is and stop trying to make it more kid.

And still i proved you wrong by showing not one but four Capoeira victories.

fivos833 Says:

Apr 24, 2012 - Everyone modifies something for MMA, whats your point? Rhetorical question, I know you dont have a point. All you want is for me to say you are right and I am wrong. I dont care... But to compare muay thai to capoeira... where do you get your facts? Muay Thai, has always been practised in the ring mainly so it kind of differs to capoeira in every way shape and form. Listen, you are right, go practice spinning on your head, good luck.

Gman052488 Says:

Apr 24, 2012 - my point is many people wrote off karate when it comes to it's usefulness in a cage fight. But then Lyoto Machida came along and changed that. He modified it for mma playing to it's strengths. the same has been done with capoeira. i don't need to hear you say that your wrong, i proved that your wrong. now your just living in denial.

Apr 26, 2012 - This just goes to show that you can suck no matter what martial art you study.

HiddenAbilities Says:

Apr 29, 2012 - To the capoeria fighter:As a person who took capoeira for 2 years (I know it's not as much as most, but I have been point fighting A LOT to see things like the mistakes I seen in this video), you want to make absolutely sure that your always ready to gaurd, and don't do the GINGA in an MMA fight unless it's to prepare a kick once you've stuned the enemy. Also, don't use your back leg to kick, it can bee seen from a mile away.

Apr 30, 2012 - wtf?!? capoeira isnt limit , actually the capoeira fighters , the good ones are who most win in all their fights such as marcus aurelio, vinicius ossoduro , etc. no people like in the video who think themselves are good

salum75 Says:

May 5, 2012 - mma was created in Brazil and the rest of the world should respect that.Brazil put a "shut up" to the lies and fantasy hollywood created.Bruce lee made a great contribution to martial arts making it to the main stream midia at the time,but hollywood screwed it up and backfire all lee´s legacy with lies and fake martial artists(van damme,etc.).Renzo gracie created UFC and now the real martial arts standing up again.OSS.

May 6, 2012 - the Cap-man looks like he's out of condition. He should have much more stamina than that which was displayed! I think that he lost the bout first in his mind!

MCShvabo Says:

May 9, 2012 - Wow, RESPECT for defending our art

May 13, 2012 - A good attack is much more difficult to do, than a cold-blooded defence! The capoeira-guy should have known that!

puppet2dabeat Says:

May 26, 2012 - ha why when a fighter loses or wins the defeat or victory is accredited to the style and not the fighting capability of the fighter? it isn't the style, its the fighter. doesn't matter how limited something is. all styles have their limits including mixed martial arts and the number one limit of all is that of the fighter. its the classic being a jack of all trades and a master of none scenario. fighters in the ring have a tendency of not adapting and changing tactic.
