Drinks Beer… Knocks UFC Heavyweights Out - Tai Tuivasa
Спорт
Despite looking like a burger exterminator, Tai Tuivasa manages to send UFC heavyweights into oblivion. With no foundational martial arts training he ascended to the top of the most prestigious weight class. Today we take a deep dive into the career of the Australian brawler, who traded bright prospects in rugby for a harsh prizefighter life.

This man is the archetypical brawler: Not too streamlined, not too refined but as sturdy as a bridge and as strong as a bull. If that isn't enough, though, when it's time, he's capable of firing off a barrage of straight accurate haymakers that can simply beat even the big guys to the ground...incredible.

The way he holds the head during the elbow at 17:10 to make the head stay still and his brain slosh around is just brutal.
He honestly shows great restraint. As soon as he sees his opponent is lights out he doesn't hurt them anymore while they're defenseless. Most fighters will feed them another 4 free fists until the ref jumps in. I think he would've beaten peter graham in his first fight if he'd pressed the attack, but i've only seen this much. It's incredible for a guy of his size to be throwing those flying knees so high and hard.

A wonderful thing with Tai is that he would be just as happy back in Australia throwing a rugby ball around a park with family and friends and getting by out of the limelight. When you have a free mind and are fighting for the love of it it's all good fun. Evolved hugely as a fighter. Never going to be a submission specialist but with his power and striking skills he only needs reasonable ground defense. Typically modest Aussie lad !😎👍

I’ve never seen this man fight, but he is now my favorite athlete! Let’s GOOOOOOOO!!!!! 🎉🤪
I'm a casual runner. I do half marathons. Sometimes I'll use beer to carb up. Not the day before, but the day before the day before. The day before I'll be slightly hungover but full of carbs. Being hungover makes me a little extra tired, I'll spend the day hurting slightly but relaxed the night before a race I'll sleep like a baby. The next morning I'll be rested, ridiculously carbed up, ready to run 13 miles and still feel like I have gas left by the time I cross the finish line. I'm starting to get too old to drink all the time, I'm not in my early 20's anymore (was a bad idea even then haha), so I just drink strategically :)
Great athlete indeed and down to earth dude. Hope he becomes champion one day.

History has shown time and time again that the fighter does win that match-up in most cases. As much as I love watching brawlers like Tank Abbott and Chuck Liddell, and Tai here, it's just not a style that has any lasting success in the octagon especially these days.

@@Praise___YaH with all due respect brother everything you just stated sounds like what MAN said, but the scriptures are the word of God, 2Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman who needeth not be ashamed, Rightly dividing the word of truth
He’s got my vote 🥊
Wow imagine where he would be if he took his strength and conditioning/weight seriously and started fighting in grade school like most of these guys….. He’s all natural talent no fear so sick

Jon Jones shouldnt even be in the conversation, the guy literally gets the fail from USADA state commisions and UFC moves the fight to another state (Arizona) so he can fight while ON steroids, not having benefit of but currently ON. And thats just what they can find.
Why was the other fighter allowed to hammer fist the back of Tai’s head at 18:59? Shouldn’t he have lost a point?

The ref didn't call it, and the ref is the one who deducts points, not the judges. Not a great situation for sure - if blows to the back of the head were treated the same way as 12-6 elbows or grounded knees a lot of MMA matches would probably have ended differently. For example in Dustin Poirier's second fight with Eddie Alvarez, Eddie had Dustin in an awful position until he threw a 12-6 elbow. This caused the fight to reset on the feet and Dustin pretty much immediately obliterated Eddie's entire face, winning the fight by KO. Now imagine Ciryl Gane's back-of-the-head blow to Tai Tuivasa had been treated that way - Tai might have (though probably not) won the fight. EDIT: lol I just checked and it was actually the same ref in both fights, Marc Goddard
