Just before Christmas, former UFC bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt relayed the wonderful story of Jean-Claude Van Damme’s visit to Team Alpha Male’s Sacramento HQ for a bit of training. After sweating on everyone and weirding the team out with some strange stretches, the action star got in the training ring with Garbrandt to do some kicks, which is where things went south.


Van Damme began by toe-stabbing one of the Alpha Male coaches for a bit, before stepping in with Garbrandt and accidentally hook kicking him in the teeth. Garbrandt “went black,” and began furiously yelling at Van Damme, who apparently began to cry.

“I was like ‘I’m going to rip his head off, but it’s Jean-Claude, what are you supposed to do?’ All of a sudden he looks at me, drops to his knees and starts crying and is like “My champion!” and starts crying like that, so I felt hella awkward. Hands on my hips, I’m mad, my lip is all busted open and I got that hot sweat, so I just looked at him and I’m like ‘Jean…’ —I kept calling him Jean, I didn’t know it was Jean-Claude—so I walked out of the Octagon, just leave the place, left the gym. It was (messed) up; everyone was watching, taking videos, so from the outside it looked like I hit him and he was crying.

Here is the Muscles from Brussels in action.

Unfortunately, JCVD probably won’t be invited back to show new TAM pupil Sage Northcutt his mysterious ways.

Cody Necktats is such a tool.
 
Funny how 60-yr old JCVD's movement looked so much more natural and fluid than a 20-something mma fighter who's known for his striking.
 
Haven't seen the video until now. Looks like a pretty weak kick actually, just doing some light sparring.

Or in the words of Dennis Alexio: "Tip-tap shit."

THAT'S what Garbrandt is pissed about?
 
Does Cody’s face still hurt from when TJ touched him with teh jab?
 
Garbrandt is such a hot head.

I could see that loser going full War Machine one day.
 
Not sure why he’s mad, you spar with the greatest fighter of all time you are going to get hit
 
That was some playful shit and neckies went all aggro on him
 
"hella awkward", "hands on my hips", "hot sweat"....
I've no idea who this Coby guy is, but you use words and phrases like these and I can only say good for him getting kicked in the face.

This. What the hell Cody, you're like the kid who bit his thumb and charged in a rage at the better kickball players.

Garbrandt can't even move like him.

 
I almost never develop personal opionons about athletes regardless of what is said about their behavior as i try not to be judgmental towards anyone, especially not towards people I've never actually met, but....

That was some seriously crybaby shit on codys part, and pretty fucking odd considering he is a professional fighter.

Accedental shots when drilling and touch sparring happen all the goddamn time. That's why you keep your mouth piece even when just drilling. If you get popped on accident you just tell you partner to be a little more careful and get back to work.

You don't storm off crying like a bitch trying to make someone feel worse about something they are already going to feel bad about without you getting your panties in a bunch.

Jesus, unfucking believable. What a drama queen.
 
What a douche. Id LOVE it if Jeane Claude Van Damme hook kicked my face and started crying,. Holy shit, that would make my day. Like, how would that not be one of your greatest party stories? This friggin" "Dude-bro" Garbrandt. Every time he exists, I like him less.
 
That's it?!

I read about it earlier but didnt see it until now. Big nothing. What a bitch he's being.

Also JCVD has some incredible form. Punches and kicks looked masterful.
 
I think he wanted to respond but then he thought if he gets his ass kicked on camera by JCVD, his career is over

yeah exactly. alot can be learned from the traditional martial arts.

I totally agree and couldn't have said it better. Especially when Van Damme clearly yelled fuck and was expressing remorse immediately and checking on him.

I was surprised that Cody pulled this too. I think he may be a dishonest guy that already didn't like Jean and was confused by the kicks.
