Jason Momoa Performs Haka for UFC Fighter Mark Hunt at Queensland Gym
Aquaman star Jason Momoa took a break from filming on Queensland’s Gold Coast to pay a visit to UFC fighter Mark Hunt.
Momoa and other members of the UFC Auckland team performed a traditional Maori Haka in tribute to Hunt, who will appear on the title card at UFC Fight Night 110 in Auckland. Hunt and the team have been training at the Heartbreak Conditioning gym in Burleigh Heads.

Can you imagine back in the times when there was ancient wars and battles going on and the opposing side heard and saw hundreds and hundreds of these men doing it? You can’t tell me that it wouldn’t be intimidating.

Jesus got sacrificed by HIS FATHER for your sins. he isnt a random human, HE is GODS SON , and CREATOR OF THIS EARTH...
Those saying this is gay have no idea or respect for other people's traditions. Im from South Africa and can respect all the polynesian dances frm Moari to Tongan and Samoan. Those from the USA tend to be disrespectful towards things they dont understand. We have our traditional dances here amongst the different ethnicities, you do not disrespect other peoples traditions. Kia ora to all the kiwis out there.

The haka sure brings the warrior out of everyone.
Welp, it's just occured to me that I'm not nearly masculine enough. And that i should begin my workout.
you can make this shouting into a skyrim song lmao
How fucking crazy would it be to see Hunt perform the Haka just before a fight. Maybe one thing missing from MMA is the traditional war dances prior to the fights, it would add an element that may entertain the masses. I would fucking love it.
The respect with ancient traditions, old habits. This is culture and is very, very important for any nation 👏 (And a bit scary to see before a fight ! )

Yo that was sick as fuuuuuuck
Awessome!!!
Beautiful culture I love it
Me and the bois in the school locker room:
Yesssss
É de arrepiar!!!!!
Beinging from Hawaii and doing the Ka Mate is like trying to prove you're from Norway and doing a Kenyan War Dance.
Wish we got the full video tbh
Haka seems like something Dothraki would do before war to let others know what they're getting themselves into
Why did you cut it half off?
fuck yea.... that was awesome...
WOW THIS BROUGHT TO A STRONG GREAT FEELING!!!
Nothing is more scarier then "lalalala Allah wak Bar." 😁😂😂
Mean wicked alright
Imma be honest yea they all give me chicken skin cause of the mana but the guy going all out behind Jason manoa gives me the most of chills I like dat
I'm sorry to ruin this epic moment, but when they all took their shirts off, I may have squealed...in my head.
So bad ass
That will get the blood flowing
The Haka is a ritual which is intended to strike fear... after watching this clip, I need to change my underwear
You can just tell he is a theatre kid, he is always so extra is these haka clips
Badass

Momoa is Hawaiian, so this wouldnt technically be a haka. The haka is for Maoris. Yes, both are polynesian, I am aware of this.

i went to Hawaii almost 10 years ago and saw mostly whites and asians. no one spoke Hawaiian to me even once. they might have the occasional word thrown in amongst English. the Hawaiian people and culture is dead. if it's known as the ha'a over there then why do you guys do a ha'a instead of the haka? I've seen this also at American football games where they claim the maori haka as their own. it looks plastic asf. it's almost like Hawaiians are new to this. lmao if that was me I'd be embarrassed asf.
