Dirtiest Fight Ever?

[10mm]

If I remember correctly Alex Oliveira is notorious for committing fouls almost every fight.

At least 2x 12-6 elbows to the back of head starting from as high as he can reach. Just from memory.

 

[Dude Incredible]

what about Sakuraba vs. Arona?

That shit was gnarly.

jesus that fight was thought to watch. After that foul he went on to kick the holy shit out of the poor kid too

Which fight is that? If it's in the UFC I've seen it but just not remembering it.

Branko Cicatic's TDD against Mark Kerr consisted of hooking the ropes and throwing elbows to the back of the head/neck, as short as that fight was. Honorable mention to Overeem and Kongo for demolishing Crocop's balls.

Stephens is a bit of a turd.

KO’s Josh Emmet then delivers a flying elbow from hell to his carcass. In his post fight interview says “Hats off to josh he’s a warrior” or something along those lines… yeah bud that’s really in line with you trying to put him in a coma a few minutes before.

Also caused his opponent to withdraw from a fight then shows no remorse or responsibility for his actions in getting the fight removed and also showed no guilt towards his opponent with whom he had zero bad blood before-hand losing out on a payday.

He broke Emmits jaw doing that too, I think.

conor against khabib

 

[TheRassler]

This needs to be updated.

 

[DoctorTaco]

Cris Lencioni vs. AJ agazarm is up there. There were after the bell strikes, a blatant head butt, shit talking mid fight, a refusal by one guy to touch gloves afterwards l. It was wild

 

[DoctorTaco]

This needs to be updated.

The man knew to mind his Ps and Qs while in there with a real gangster

 

[Marko Polo]

He broke Emmits jaw doing that too, I think.

Along with other parts of his face. Put him out of action for some time.

 

[Spiritual Sight]

I heard Matt Linland didn't shower for days, leading up to fight night.

 

[sherdogwantedtonamemekiki]

Along with other parts of his face. Put him out of action for some time.

Oh wow, what an ass. I thought it was just his jaw.

Dirtiest Fighter: Jon Jones

Dirtiest Follow Up: Dan Henderson

Jones living rent free in so many heads or a lot of noobs that haven’t watched many fights.

Dirty Bob vs Matsui is comedy gold for all the wrong reasons, Dirty Bob acting all innocent after multiple fowls

 

[HHJ]

Yvel being dirty? No way!!!

Well that wasn't being dirty. Thats straight up assault on a non combatant.

 

[HHJ]

Gary Goodridge loved to find ways to fight dirty without actually breaking a rule

That's just being a smart fighter. Mayweather and Hopkins are great at this too.

 

[dog y]

Gilbert Yvel vs. Karimula Barkalaev

Gerard Gordeau vs. Yuki Nakai

Dirty Bob Schrijber vs. Daijiro Matsui

Dutch guys have been dirty as fuck throughout history.

I thought gordeau was French? Anyway your point still stands.
Like reem killing crocops nuts and also killing that little girl.

Cool Story

The people who say Jones is dirty never watched Gilbert Yvel. That guy is a fucking head case. Yes, Jones is dirty too of course.

DC/Stipe 2 and 3 are up there. You know for a fact that DC was well aware eye pokes as he had already gouged out Stipes Retina but he did it repeatedly again. You can see all of them here

Just rewatching some Pride fights and Frye vs Yvel is one of the worst I have ever saw. Keeps grabbing the ropes to prevent the takedown. Is warned 4 times then eye rakes Don. Break in action and Frye pushes him to the ropes where he repeatedly grabs the ropes again and gets a yellow card. The Yvel gets taken down and grabs the ropes another million times for the DQ. After the fight Yvel tries to attack Frye and the ref so 10 people get in between. Then he complains like it was an unfair stoppage. I can't remember something that dirty.

Gordeau made Nakai permanently blind.

What's crazy is that Nakai fought two more times after his fight with Gordeau on the same night and essentially fought Rickson with no vision because both of his eyes had swollen shut:

Arona gouging the wounds on Sakuraba's eyes/face:

Frye was playing a villain in Japan pro wrestling, blew out his quad, then fought Yvel a week later, just 13 days after 9/11:

Yvel eye gouging Frye:

Yvel repeatedly holding the ropes while continuing to eye gouge Frye:

After getting yellow carded, Yvel still continued holding the ropes:

Yvel was yellow carded a second time, then eye gouged Frye again:

More eye gouging from Yvel:

Yvel continued eye gouging and rope grabbing till the ref finally DQ'd him:

Frye didn't even mention Yvel's cheating in the Pride documentary (he also said that carrying a flag around your shoulders is improper and something a "hippie" would do).

In terms of sheer quantity, McGregor committed at least 19 fouls against Nurmagomedov:
