Mixed Martial Artist & Actor
“A true champion is one who sweats from exhaustion when no one is watching.”
On today’s livestream, we welcome one of the greatest mixed martial artists of all time, a legendary figure who transcends fight sports and has become hugely popular outside the octagon.
Bas Rutten, aka “El Guapo,” is a former UFC Heavyweight Champion and three-time King of Pancrase World Champion, boasting a remarkable career record of 28 wins, 4 losses, and 1 draw.
He ended his career on an impressive 22-fight unbeaten streak with a unique fighting style that blended devastating striking and grappling, incorporating elements of Karate, Muay Thai, and Taekwondo.
His prowess is underlined by his 12 knockout victories and 13 submission wins, with only three fights relying on the judges out of an impressive 28 victories. His strike accuracy was recorded at 70.6%, the highest UFC’s FightMetric has ever recorded.
Bas’ journey into martial arts reads something like an 80’s Hollywood coming-of-age movie. Terrorised by bullies on a daily basis due to a crippling skin disorder and suffering from intense bouts of asthma, his childhood was oftentimes lonely and uncomfortable.
He sought solace in nature and spent his days running and hiding from the next confrontation until he discovered the world of Bruce Lee through his iconic movies. Bas became obsessed and begged his parents to allow him to train in martial arts. The rest, as they say, is history.
Bas earned a 2nd-degree black belt in Taekwondo and Kyokushin Karate and a 5th-degree black belt in Shintai Karate, and the bullies were forgotten to the sands of time.
His transition to professional fighting was less than straightforward. He made a name for himself thanks to his energy and natural charisma both inside and outside the ring. Despite his devastating striking, Bas experienced setbacks early on, losing three times by submission.
Ever the student, he resolved to improve his ground game and subsequently remained undefeated for the rest of his career. His significant victories include wins over prominent fighters such as Frank Shamrock (twice), Kevin Randleman, Maurice Smith, Masakatsu Funaki, and Guy Mezger.
“I am proud of the fact that I went into this Mixed Martial Arts game as a striker, lost three times by submission, and told myself, ‘No more losing.’ I started focusing on the ground game and then never lost a fight again… From my 28 wins, I had only four decisions, 11 KOs, and 14 submission victories, so I went in as a ‘striker’ and in the end had more submission victories than KOs.”
