That's not the only funny shit he's done during a fight: Droppin' elbows!: http://i49.tinypic.com/of8sp1.gif Near miss: http://i43.tinypic.com/abjfa8.gif

[–]FrostFire626 58 points59 points ago

I had no idea such a big guy could do a clean tornado kick. I upvote that man in spirit.

[–]BadFurDay 14 points15 points ago

Pro wrestling's not everyone's thing, but hey, this guy's pretty much of the same format (if not even bigger) and the stuff he does is amazing: first youtube result for Willie Mack.

And that's just one of many wrestlers in the business who's big and flies around. Names of big guys who could throw the same kind of clean tornado kick despite their size includes but isn't limited to Samoa Joe, Takeshi Morhshima, Kevin Steen, and more. Sorry for the crappy youtube MVs, but it's the only thing I can quickly find without spending all evening looking for ways to illustrate that post.

Big size isn't always a limitation, it's an advantage for some :)

[–]angelofdeathofdoom 2 points3 points ago

That was fucking amazing! Willie Mack's shoryuken is the greatest one i have ever seen.

[–]Jubtron 1 point2 points ago

HOLY FUCK Willie Mack is insane.

[–]aumanchi 5 points6 points ago

You'd be surprised at how much muscle is underneath that little bit of fat.

[–]Dracomantis 1 point2 points ago

It is pretty amazing when you consider how much that guy weighs.

As a 6ft guy who weighs 135lbs, I can JUST do a few pullups... I feel ashamed.

[–]DudeWithTheNose 0 points1 point ago

that is ridiculously skinny. I'm 6ft 185lbs. I'm a little overweight.

[–]Dracomantis 0 points1 point ago

Yeah I know, I've eat very little, have done since I was a kid. Only very recently accepted the fact that I had a eating disorder and I'm currently working to fix it along with /r/fitness's help. Those guys know how to make even a snack fucking loaded with 'good' calories.

Hoping to get to 140-150, and try and put on muscle rarther than just 'weight'.

So yeah, its stupidly skinny, but I'm fixing it!! lol

[–]DudeWithTheNose 1 point2 points ago

Good for you dude. Don't get me wrong, i'd much rather be too skinny than too fat. It's much easier too put on weight than lose it imo. But being that skinny can't be healthy. Best of luck.

[–]Dracomantis 1 point2 points ago

It's much easier too put on weight than lose it imo.

Absolutely, I'm 23 and I've had this problem since I was about 13, and I am only JUST manning up and dealing with it. If I was was a over-eater instead, and was faced with not having to eat more, but to work out to lose it all, I think I'd be putting it off all the time lol.

Thanks for the well wishes mate!

[–]thatguyfred 1 point2 points ago

I'm 5'6 and been at 158lbs since I started long distance running and lifting heavy. I couldn't imagine being 135lbs...

[–]Dracomantis 0 points1 point ago

It sucks mate, I fooled myself for too long that I was healthy lol. Always crazy cold, weak as shit, and have the fitness of a heavy smoker, even though I don't smoke.

I'll get there lol.

[–]thatguyfred 1 point2 points ago

Eat lots, Sleep lots, Lift heavy.

[–]paralog 0 points1 point ago

Why should I listen to you, ice farter?

[–]Eurysthenes 0 points1 point ago

I'm 5'7 and got from 120 to 210lbs. Check out my thread; got some tips on eating...eating is a full time job.

Good luck and keep up the good work.

[–]Dracomantis 0 points1 point ago

Thanks man, I'll check it out and throw it in my to read pile for tomorrow.

Thanks!

[–]danyanimal 0 points1 point ago

That's not overweight. Get some muscle and you can go from overweight to being jacked and tan.

[–]slipperyfist 15 points16 points ago

Holy shit, I've never seen a 360 kick in MMA before, let alone from a fat guy.

[–]Gorgyworgy 3 points4 points ago

he's not fat. He's big.

[–]SeviMan 22 points23 points ago

That was a beautiful kick.

[–]pop_fest420 0 points1 point ago

The following front kick was less graceful.

[–]Jeeonta 5 points6 points ago

Needs more love !

[–]synicalx1 0 points1 point ago

Is this like the fat unco version of UFC?

[–]Duderino316 0 points1 point ago

Near miss: http://i43.tinypic.com/abjfa8.gif

Info or link to this fight would really be appreciated.

[–]moshudragon 1 point2 points ago

Fight was against Chris Barnett. Couldn't find a video of the whole fight but here is a HL video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KW2p4ra9fPM Interestingly Ivey goes for the rolling kneebar in this fight as well.

[–]Duderino316 0 points1 point ago

Thanks man.

[–]Tyrac -3 points-2 points ago

You mean near hit?

[–]silent_p 8 points9 points ago

No, near miss is used correctly in this context, although now that you point it out, near hit might be a more logical turn of phrase.

[–]Artyom2033 2 points3 points ago

It was a miss that was very near, ie. close in proximity. You'd have a point if the phrase was more like 'he nearly missed'.

[–]haidaguy -4 points-3 points ago

wrong. 'near miss' would mean that is was ALMOST a miss -- close to being a miss. It wasn't. It WAS a miss. It was a near hit. It was close to being a hit.

[–]Artyom2033 0 points1 point ago

What does the word "near" mean?

[–]misanthr0p1c 0 points1 point ago

Well you can't really be near on a hit. If you hit, you are there, and if you don't hit, it's a miss.

[–]moshudragon -2 points-1 points ago

Hahaha yes, sorry about that. edit: getting downvoted for admitting I used the wrong term? Interesting.

[–]aurahack 190 points191 points ago

He's practicing Dark Souls pvp.

[–]Queefaroni 71 points72 points ago

w/ heavy armor

[–]RemedyofRevenge 13 points14 points ago

Probably using the Giant's Armor.

[–]TheCatapult 16 points17 points ago

Looks more like full Smough.

[–]actualsnow 2 points3 points ago

Regardless, no DWGR here.

[–]Omnipotent_Hamster 0 points1 point ago

Or really any armor without Havel's ring equipped.

[–]HobKing[!] 44 points45 points ago

I love how the opponent just gives up and waits for his routine to be over.

[–]tenika5 27 points28 points ago

If this gif was backwards, it would look kind of cool.

[–]ViridamAmici 3 points4 points ago

I'm trying, but ReverseGIF's server load has been too high for the past hour.

[–]AngriestCosmonaut 44 points45 points ago

EVADE, EVADE!

[–]0tterly_Ridiculous 167 points168 points ago

This is actually a sneak preview of Kevin James' new god-awful movie.

[–]Narkolepse 26 points27 points ago

As an MMA fan I've been looking forward to this movie for a long time. I think whoever is producing trailers thinks they need typical KJ trailers for typical KJ fans but I have hopes it is better than that.

[–]closernough 10 points11 points ago

This. It has Bas Rutten in it. It has to be good for at LEAST the portions he's on screen.

[–]Bionic0n3 3 points4 points ago

I remember watching an interview with Kevin James a long time ago were he actually said he trains MMA so ever since they announced the movie I have been excited.

[–]Lampmonster1 11 points12 points ago

I don't know, I think this one looks like it has some heart. And there's a lot of talent in the cast. Maybe it has a decent script.

[–]PapaPetro 3 points4 points ago

In this year's blockbuster hit Kevin James is: Fat guy doing something he shouldn't be doing!

[–]mojomonkeyfish 14 points15 points ago

Man, I hate playing against button-mashers.

[–]MyNameIsLefty 19 points20 points ago

Looks like when I'm playing Zelda. :)

[–]Magnora 1 point2 points ago

Looks like when I'm playing Shadows of the Damned for PS3 and I'm constantly roll-dodging to get out of the way of enemies.

[–]vize 16 points17 points ago

I can see what he was trying to do, but he is just so fat and sluggish.

[–]daveofstrength 0 points1 point ago

sonnen roll

[–]Zachary9 6 points7 points ago

Source? How did kevin james do in that fight?

[–]justunsubscribing 5 points6 points ago

boy, Yuri Boyka has really let himself go.

[–]vergi[S] 5 points6 points ago

ha, at least someone got the reference

[–]sneaky972 1 point2 points ago

There's always someone who gets the reference, Reddit is the most complete database in the world!

[–]Lampmonster1 4 points5 points ago

He's just buying time till his magika recharges.

[–]PictureTraveller 9 points10 points ago

he's been playing guild wars 2

[–]DrXtreme28 3 points4 points ago

Never underestimate the ol' tuck and roll maneuver.

[–]kaax 3 points4 points ago

From a fighters point of view his strategy isn't bad. If the other guy went after him after turning his back to him because of the failed frontkick, it would have been clever to roll away to get some distance. Only because the other guy didn't do nothing he looked like a dumbass.

[–]heraticwalbong 5 points6 points ago

I think the second roll was done incase the standing guy went to goto ground with him. He was thinking ahead....he is complete.

[–]Destructi0n 5 points6 points ago

If anyone wants to know then that's Jonathan Ivey fighting Ken Shamrock. Video highlights of fight - Sadly it's just recorded direct from TV.

[–]platypus_bear 2 points3 points ago

He's obviously utilizing the drunken master fighting style

[–]imconservative 2 points3 points ago

This was in Lafayette, Louisiana. The MMA tournaments around here are pretty interesting...

[–]Gthib 0 points1 point ago

Thank you; I was wondering where this was. I noticed the advertisements for Hot 107.9 and 97.3 The Dawg and thought "Wait, those are local stations!"

Edit: Dawg, not Dog.

[–]liverpoop 0 points1 point ago

Dark Souls.

[–]poosause 0 points1 point ago

Looks like someone needs to practice their flash kicks

[–]rconnelly20 1 point2 points ago

One of them is in the wrong weight division

[–]Narkolepse 0 points1 point ago

Yup, Ken Shamrock is pretty awesome.

[–]PieBoy 1 point2 points ago

It worked

[–]SC2_Bench 1 point2 points ago

Every time I see this gif I just think about how bad the rising heel on the first roll would hurt if it had hit that guy. He missed his chin by just inches.

[–]BestCommentWinnerIs 1 point2 points ago

That's a Dan Hibiki move!

[–]oicangi18 1 point2 points ago

I think he's ready for a title shot. Dos Santos, you better watch your back.

[–]ThePoorSchool 0 points1 point ago

Reminds me of this

[–]barium111 1 point2 points ago

They see me rolling...

[–]icouldbewrongbut 1 point2 points ago

He looks like a rolly poley panda bear :3

[–]womandad 0 points1 point ago

Wow it's like watching Dark Souls in real life

[–]Kevin15Millar 0 points1 point ago

I think you meant darksoulspvp.gif

[–]Gamerchick17 1 point2 points ago

what i expect the new Kevin James film will be like.

[–]LizzyBeth88 1 point2 points ago

The last time this got posted someone said something to the effect that it might look silly but it was a smart move considering he missed, leaving himself wide open.

[–]yerffej 0 points1 point ago

1v1 Smash Bros IRL

[–]SuedeBuffet 1 point2 points ago

Wait until you see his final form.

[–]zeroes0 3 points4 points ago

Is it a KFC bucket?

[–]DoinItDirty 0 points1 point ago

[–]whatyou 0 points1 point ago

roly poly.

[–]tec2030 0 points1 point ago

Radio stations on that mat are from my city. WTF when was this?!

[–]ProlificAlias 0 points1 point ago

this is how i play zelda

[–]ra38 1 point2 points ago

More and more I'm starting to think Bob from Tekken is based on this guy..

[–]Big_Stick 0 points1 point ago

Is that Butter Bean? Is he still around?

[–]PapaPetro 0 points1 point ago

[–]Zaulk 0 points1 point ago

This is so dark souls. Totaly looks like hes trying to use the DWGR in heavy armor on the PC, too bad he doesn't know it was nerfed.
