Chael is so great, he was on this list twice.
Ya i wonder if his fav shape is the triangle??
These deepfakes are getting pretty realistic
*Chael’s submission on Maia was so quick you couldn’t even see it.*
Leben getting that triangle in the third round of a war with Akiyama was just astounding. That was Akiyama's only submission loss and one of Leben's very few submission wins. It was also 3 weeks after he knocked out Aaron Simpson.
Off his back as well even more crazy
@@snakemcbain4569 bruh most triangles are of their backs
@@Pineapplesthattalk yeah I'm just saying that Chris leben submitting someone off his back is crazy, I could see him hitting a kimura but didn't think he'd have it to submit off his back
Amazing how Chael's head put up so much pressure to Maia's legs that Maia gave up.
Rockhold’s one arm guillotine against Bisping, Rockhold’s reverse triangle Kimura also should have a mention
That triangle kimura thing isnt here? That's fucking criminal.
XO
murilo bustamante with two finishes in one fight💪🏻💪🏻
Even if he didn’t tap I don’t understand why he had the position taken from him wtf
@@durppp Big John pulled a Herb Dean before Herb Dean.
2 subs and a knockout in 3 rounds lol
@@durppp it is truly the weirdest ref shit ever in my opinion. Linland tapped so frantically he managed to convince big john he was just feeling bustamante out. Or he's just stupid who knows, either way wanting or not he tapped. And then big john stands them up to check out what happened (could be understandable to check linland for injuries i guess) and doesnt give bustamante the ridiculously advantageous position back. Glad he still won anyway, that would've been a fuckup for the ages if linland got a title out of this shit
this was the most insane call in the history of the ufc (aside from not banning jon jones), the dude clearly taps like 10 times, and his “actual” tap is such a fake slow tap it’s hilarious
That muniz arm snap of jacare was just horrifying to listen to. I just wait to listen for the chicken wing to snap and it never disappoints
Was in Houston for that card. You could hear it from the stands
I got an anal spasm watching this
2:20 reaction from the guy in the front row says everything you need to know about that. 😱
You can't have a Top 10 Middleweight Submission list without including Andre Muniz 🔥
That snap though... 😬😬😬
Man is gonna be a problem , as uninteresting it is at the top of 185 ,there’s a lot of scary up n comers 2 of them fighting tomorrow , but muniz is who I’m most excited for ,the way he subbed Jacare and Anders in the exact same way was just beautiful
Fr wish him and du plessis fought but might happen in the future
Chill..
Muniz can easily submit adesanya
The way Maia made that look effortless against Chael. This was before Chael went on that tear and gave Silva that tough fight. Seems Maia is just a terrible fight for dominant wrestlers who have no consequential striking. Guys that look good even unbeatable against everyone else but are just lunch for him.
Yeah especially in his prime , unfortunately everyone at 170 is so damn well rounded
I know but what’s really crazy is after chael tapped to signify he loses the round is the heart he showed to come back to win by ko to remain undefeated and undisputed.
Yeah it’s why he had such a tough time against Colby the pressure striking and transitions and denials
Triangles have always been chaels worse enemy. He as SO MANY losses by triangle
@@brandoncook2371 what are you on about? Dudes never even lost a round
That arm snap was crazy
i agree
Maia was probably the last actual specialist you'll see in the ufc. He couldn't strike at all but as soon as he got ahold of you it was only a matter of time. Askren was another(say what you want he was a Bellator and ONE FC champ) he couldn't strike but he'd hold you down and pound you out too
Ryan Hall?
Maia actually has relatively sound boxing
@@City0fTroy Casual spotted. Maia has horrible boxing.
@@Tony-hn8qy Most casuals don't know let alone care about Demian Maia, he's only a fan favourite amongst the hardcore fans.
@@Tony-hn8qy His stand up improved overtime and was enough for him to close the distance and take fighters down.
Rockhold and Hermansson sub? Rockhold's sub against Boetch was fantastic and Hermansson 's Guillotine against Branch was insane!
Jack Hermansson watching at the beginning :D Jack Hermansson watching by the end :(
2:20 you can hear the snap😬
2:19 Jeeeeeez hearing the sound of the break is insane
The sound of Jacare’s arm snapping still traumatizes me. 🤦🏻♂️😭
2:19 that snap bro
Chael Sonnen made the list twice and got the number 1 spot- GOAT!
2:18 the official quickly covering his eyes is pretty scary
The Spider is something special!
Hernandez summiting that dude was nuts
Maia celebrating winning one round vs Chael, we all he went on to win by UD! Undefeated Undisputed
Ya rite he also taped to Anderson sliva
@@chindub6563 He was actually just doing a not very succesful meme from like 7 years ago.
@@chindub6563 shut up
@@sandoumir4348 shut up.
@@sandoumir4348 I know
Muniz doing that to Jacare is crazy. No one subs Jacare. He has to be the best grappler in the mma right now.
Do Bronx would beg to differ
@@horeshack1226 do bronx is way too reckless on the ground and chases the finish, he was getting pounded by chandler no doubt he won but he’s makes so many mistakes that was one of the reason he would get submitted by strikers and got tko’d gnp by felder who’s not even know for his ground skills I know that was a while ago but he still makes those mistakes on the other hand andre muinz is just on another level, Sean Brady and Paul Craig are definitely up there. But as of right now Andre Munoz is the best
@@horeshack1226 do bronx not as good as jacare and maia
@@harindergill4358 I don't agree about craig
Dude as much as I love Souza you should know that he's out of his prime because of the age. He also seems so un interested in fights too. Lost that spark and that is due to age and other stuff he might be going on. Prime Jacare would submit inside 2 rounds. Muniz is a beast too
I’ll never not love “Anthony Fucking Hernandez”
In my humble opinion, Muniz is gonna be a future contender. His jiu jitsu is fucking nasty, the way that he submits his opponents shows that he can be a nightmare matchup to the current champ Israel adesanya. I don't know, I see lot of people hyping names like Poatan, for example, and very few talk about this Dude. Take my words, he's gonna be a problem in the MW division.
7:16 Glad this obscure one was added to the mix. I think this was the first Peruvian Necktie in the UFC, but please correct me if I'm wrong
You are not wrong, closely followed by brad picket 16 months later!
2:20 you can tell jacare broke his arm not only by the sound, but by the guy outside of the octagon just cringing from what he saw
People always bring up chael almost beating Silva but they forget the bad guy popped for roids that fight so he would have been stripped anyway lmao
I was driving and I had Muniz vs Jac on bluetooth. That crack of the arm was brutal coming out the speakers
Luke Rockhold vs Tim Boetsch should’ve been on here
Rockhold has some dope finishes.
@@madgavin7568 Dude was one of the best I've ever seen. I thought he was gonna be the next Silva. Until Bisping KO'd him and his chin was just completely destroyed.
@@dranreb1118 He had great talent, but I think even if he defeated Bisping in the rematch he would not have held the belt for long. I could see him racking up 2, maybe 3 defences but had he faced Whittaker or Romero, he most likely would have lost. Rockhold didn't have the greatest chin by that stage, he actually had a good chin until TRT Vitor destroyed it with that spin kick. A more consistent issue for Rockhold was his defence, not keeping his hands up and dropping his right hand leaving himself open for left hooks.
Some crazy stuff 🤯🔥🔥
Omfg I don’t remember that snap being so loud in the Jacare v Muniz fight. Adding that to the list of replays I never wanna watch again 🤣
George said he can make 155, bisping used to fight at 205 and just said to Rogan he got way over 200 pounds. Crazy
as good george is, bisping was his best shot at becoming a double champ. i really think he would have lost both to the welterweight and lightweight champions at this stage of his career but we never know!
@@onejaw9616 he wouldn't have lost to Conor/Tony 😂
@@onejaw9616 what are you on about? He would've beaten Tyrone and Conor EASY. yes even in 2017. Robert Whittaker or yoel would've had him in trouble though
@@onejaw9616 Wish Anderson and GSP fought each other at their primes. 2 GOATS against each other.
That Jacare arm snap drew a gasp outta me 😂
Maia definitely owned the list 😂.
Bustamante finishing Lindland TWICE. Oof
0:54 did jon swear? haha
sounds like it but he said fluffy ahaha 🤣
No
Undefeated. Never lost a round.
It will always be that legendary triangle chokes.
The Dan Henderson fight reminded us all that Anderson Silva was more than just a striker.
Murilo Bustamante: "I clearly felt a tap"
Lol Jon Aniks call on the Hernandez fight was amazing
Awesome skills
2:20 I think that’s Jacare’s arm breaking, that’s disgustingly beautiful.
It is.
You can hear it snap, it sounds like like a tree branch breaking off. I cringed listening to it.
look at the guy on the right's reaction, it absolutely is. dude covered his eyes so it probably visibly broke too
Omg that’s terrible but fascinating
So awesome to see Chris Leben in this. He was my favorite fighter during that time.
Lol it’s crazy to me see him submit someone especially a 3rd degree black belt in judo
@@italianstalian331 judo is a standing sport…
gsp vs bisbing is the best one
Anderson and gsp , just so good.
GSP The GOAT
Bisping mashed up GSP from the bottom which is crazy really as you never see it ... even though he lost.
Ed Hermen a real one
Think Jack Hermansson v GM3 should be on here. No one had seen that guillotine variation before and it was a thing of beauty. It came from nowhere.
In what universe can you lose a fight by beating the crap out of someone for four and half rounds only to have him wrap his legs around you for 10 seconds? This is number one boolshit.
He gave up he tapes out
In a universe where casuals don't know how MMA actually works. So, maybe not try to talk out loud?
@@sandoumir4348 ya your just mad he taped out
@@chindub6563 you're*
Bisping is the Ranked #1 taking the punishment on all types of finishes.
I wonder if Chaels fav shape is the triangle??
The fact that rockholds submission wins over bisping or machida isn’t on here is ridiculous
2:19 you can hear his arm break
Anderson Silva no question😈
Way to go! Stumble upon a McGregor tribute video and song recently. Have you heard McGregor Irish Hooligan?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would have loved to see Lee Murry's triangle-armbat vs Jorge Rivera on here.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5... forever punches!"
Oh my goodness
2:20 😫😫
Did Jon Anik say "Anthony Fucking Hernandez!"? 0:54 LOL
Imagine getting submitted twice in one fight
Juijuitsu is a very important and exciting factor in MMA.
Anderson Silva Tap Travis Lutter Dan Henderson & Chael Sonnen 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Classic
You could hear Jacare’s arm snap
Chael didn't tap, he was just magically making his legs untangle
jon anik rly said anthony fkn hernandez 🎭
It’s crazy that they left out Luke Rockholds inverted triangle
"Anthony Fucking Hernandez!"
2:20 you can hear the arm snap bro, i have to throw up
Lindland with the record for most taps in a fight.
That first fight should have been STOPPED wayyyyy before then he was taking way too much extra damage.
“DEFEATING ED HERMAN”
Wow gsp
When you tap we all know you tapped
What about jacare submitting mousassi?
THIS WAS COOL...............
No love for lukes one arm guiltonne agaist bisping?
There are only 8 submission here
Poor uncle Chael
eazy for Khabib
Dollaways should of been number one
Maia ragdolled Chael Sonnen then submitted him 😳
Hermansson? Better than some of the list
These videos do not help my high blood pressure!
Crazy how chael won that maia fight but people here think he lost? Wtf?
It was too fast, maia went from threatening a submission to getting subbed that fast, impressive by Sonnen
Anderson Silva Lock out chael Sonnen is Biggest finish in UFC middleweight history 🙆♂️👏
Awesome submissions by Adesanya.
LOL
Chael never lost any of those rounds.
6:07 shouldn't have let go until the cheat died
UFC
Why is #1 even on here 1 of 300 thousand basic chokes that we saw in 2021. Why is this here
Chael holds the record for most times subbed.
Thanks but Chael only lost the round against Silva. He won the other 4.
Still taped
The editing is so good on this, it makes it look like chael lost to silva!
@@Boe_Jiden81 he did give it up already
@@chindub6563 It's spelled "tapped" by the way. Quick english lesson for you before you graduate middle school. Bye now
@@Boe_Jiden81 ya ya I bet I can make you tape
