How good was Manny Gamburyan?

[Ogata]

I always hear him being referred to as " Karo's cousin" but it got me wondering, how good was Manny?

He was in the UFC for sometime but for some reason he never was talked about. His videos on YouTube barely got any hit while Karo despite being from a previous UFC generation still gets tons of hits.


His biggest win was Mike Brown and his biggest fight was Aldo. Oddly enough, he was either associate with Karo or Ronda. Do people resent him because he introduced Ronda to Edmond?

Meh, not that good. Not a can or anything, but not an elite fighter.

 

[Eiffel-sixtyFight]

He looked like a non trt Joe Rogan.

Only without spinning back kicks.

Armenian Sam Sicilia imo

He was pretty good. I remember the first time I ever gambled, did several small bets and one was on Manny cause I thought he was a lock. This is what happened:

That season of TUF was fucking amazing

 

[Garnet_StrongerThanYou]

He was a douche.

He tried to fake glove sucker kick someone once,
.
Also he threw a huge dramatic tantrum at the TUF house.

Also I think he was on PEDs as well. I don’t know if he popped.

Also he looked like he had bad breath.

Let's play a game called "Is that Walid Ismail or Manny Gamburyan". I'll start.

 

[Ruke Doufus]

He's the goat at fake glove touches

 

[DaleBoca]

He fought for the WEC title vs Aldo. He wasn’t bad and was quite a decent fighter. He was beating Nick in the TUF final until he dislocated his shoulder.

 

[Pierced7681]

Karo said some bizarre shit about Manny and Ronda in an interview, something about him changing her tampons. Armenian humour I’m guessing?

 

[Yep]

He was a fire hydrant of a man

 

[BluntForceTrama]

I wouldn't look forward to fighting him

What was the story of the fake glove touch?

What was the story of the fake glove touch?

 

[Ogata]

I remember that, but I was wondering why he did that?

The reason I ask is, he never done this before and after this fight.

 

[Mangar]

Total douche. Not a good fighter either.

I don’t know. Maybe he just decided that any publicity is good publicity.

 

[Ogata]

I don’t know. Maybe he just decided that any publicity is good publicity.

It was a real dirt bag move fore sure. If Manny was not around, Ronda would have never met Edmond. Its also weird because Manny grew up with Gokor but decided to leave and train with Edmond.

I never understood it because Gokor has Benny The Jet as one of the striking instructors. By the time Benny arrived to Gokors gym, he already proved to be a fantastic trainer as well as a fighter. Yet Manny leaves for Edmond.

Then he would be very proud of this thread!
