Hey Dean, I studied under you for 2yrs in San Diego and I can say you we're the most humblist of people. Fast forward 11yrs later and thousands of miles away and now because of my experience in your classes I have my children studying BJJ. Thank you for being you. Wish them luck, they're going for their blue belts in January!

Immediately after the finish, his opponent knelt beside him to make sure he was okay. This is how all martial artists should act, 100% respect.

I can't tell what is more impressive, the pain that was withheld from that ugly pressure, or the fact that dean STILL claps and hugs and handshakes with the dislocation still fresh. Holy fuck I need to get on that level.

Dean Lister is my favorite grappler! I higly respect him as an athlete and as a person! Very humble and sincere person! Anybody here disrespectful towards him they are just being ignorant that's it! I have got his 4 dvd leg lock tutorials! I'd like to visit his school and roll with him one day! Wish fast recoveries!

Man you gotta love Dean Lister, and world class sportsmanship from Kerimov as well. I really love the respect that they have for each other and this is what separates grappling, or bjj for that matter, from other sports in general

Take a shot for every time this guy tries to do the ezekiel choke

I didn't know they taught Bears how to Grapple! Holy Crap that guy is an absolute animal!

From my years doing grappling I have learned to never give up top position on a bigger man. Easier said than done though. I will wrestle until one of us messes up :D Good match.

Wow. Was cool to see that Kerimov seemed to be the most helpful person afterward with that dislocated shoulder. Makes me want to get on the mat.

Good sportsmanship from the Russian.

Dean lister=true warrior and gentleman

Great sportsmanship

I rolled once with muhammad in Dubai his strength is incredible 😳😳 Dean lister is one of my best grapplers he have been in France , and show us amazing details

Dean, you are still my favorite grappler! And nobody can teach leglocks better than you! I just wanted to thank you with all my heart for your techniques, they have helped me a lot! Hopefully your injury is healed good. After the video, I was worried. You are a great person and teacher. God bless you and your family.

Ouch yikes 😱🏥 Didn’t want to see Dean get hurt. Hope you healed up ok from this Dean

It is a pity the fight ended this way

War lister !!!!! Dean is a heroe definetly

In Soviet Russia, the cutman and your opponent help you pop shoulder back into place!

Kerimov´s strategy looks not working, but against such a top Footlocker as Dean, who can quick finish everybody with a little space, kerimov did good to stay the fight on the upper body. even the result was more like a lucky punch and not planed

Great sportsmanship from Dean's opponent.

I have been watching Dean since he used to drive his blue toyota to where i used to work and train back in the day.I think it was like 12 years nobody submitted him in competition no gi that is awesome!!!I always respected the way he grappled he always attacked.He always carried himself with great sportsmanship.For many years he was the best no gi grappler from the United States.

Dean e um dos que me inspiro, além de um grande atleta, é um cara humilde, melhoras pra vc Dean.

But man that’s what i call sportsmanship 👌🏼🤙🏼

Big fan of DL and Victory MMA. This one her to watch. Great sportsmanship all around. OSS !

Americana via Chin and Head Pressure. Right Shoulder Blown Out. 😞💔

I love Dean, all class and respect. He is a warrior and made no excuses, tough as nails. No disrespect to the Russian, however he just looked like a massive strongman with no technique in any martial art (unless you want to count those Ezekiels) trying to crush his opponent. I've seen massive white belts the same size with 3 months training who literally do the same thing, lay/smash inside guard the entire time and try to smash/choke from guard. There were countless times that stalling/inactivity could have/should have been called on the guy on top. Some commenters below said that Dean could have also been called for stalling, however this is untrue as he was on bottom. The obligation to work is placed on the top opponent.

Lister definitely broke his forearm and perhaps also has a shoulder dislocation.

Fucking cringed at that shoulder popping. Know that feeling too well...

Oh man seen the shoulder pop there, from experience best thing you can do is stand up lean forward and grab your ankle with the dislocated shoulder

Wow.. Well damn, Dean Lister is a true inspiration.. Excellent sportsmanship and determination

Respect ✊ 🙏🏼

Q buenos .. me encanta el respeto !! Unos grandes total

Can someone please tell me what the submission that ended the fight was called? I have never seen it before. The only time i've purposely postured down in guard was when trying to ezekiel from top. It would be nice to add another submission to my guard repertoire. Thanks

An Americana type shoulder lock with the head ! Damn and it doesn't hurt for Mukhammad to be a bull .

Does anyone know what injury Dean sustained? What the move was called that kerimov did? looked like a crushing americana with his chin and body weight. How in the hell did dean keep from getting ezekel choked? ( spelling may be off).

Guys could you tell me to song they play at the start?! Thank you in advance!

Dislocated shoulder was it? Is there a name for this submission? Glad to see it pop back in at the end there :)

Hope you recovered well Dean, what happened?

I was expecting lister to win

song for those wondering Aero Chord & Klaypex - Be Free

Deeeim... Respect!

Why does dean lister have the Brazilian flag behind him?

What type of music was that ? For real

Pq a bandeira do Brasil no telão com Dean?

fk I love this sport. great sportsmanship.

Big guy likes to cuddle.

I just started bjj and right at the end of the match, when I saw his shoulder being pressed upon, I was going "ow, ow, ow, ow...". Dean got my respect by being gracious in the loss. Wish he had more that he had done. Would have liked to see more after his recovery.

Is that Davi Ramos as the referee?

wow big respect to dean

That's vicious! 😱💪🏼

Why would you ignore 50% of the body ... You are welcome DDS !

Respect👏👏👏

i thought people stopped doing that head hugging shit at white belt?

Can somebody please tell me what the injury ended up being?

"дави", дави" Как сидя в гарде можно сделать изелькиль? Все на здоровье. Это борец бжж?

What was the injury a torn pec or shoulder out?

What submission was that the sit on his arm?

Старый ден )! Как так вышло )!

no final bonito de se ver

i feel scared if these kind of techniques keep beeing developed o: the futuro of grappling looks letal (high level) o:

Have we received confirmation on what the finish was?

It didn't look like a submission... it looked to me like Dean injured himself. It was a lazy way to finish the fight. I think Mr Kerimov was holding so that Dean would open his guard to try sweeps.

Que porra Dean Lister ta tomando fermento veio ? Pqp o cara ta deformado veio !

The Williams Guard/The Clamp was starring Dean Lister in the face.

No disrespect to Dean but what was he doing? He just stays there and not attacking

That was bullshit, all Mukhammed did the entire bout was try and crush him, saw no technique from him at all. I wonder how long he's managed to get by relying on his sizeq

Why is there a brazilian flag for Dean?

why does dean lister have a Brazilian flag on the screen?

weird fight strategy from kerimov

Is this a Russian thing? To think you’re just gonna do a no GI Ezekiel choke on one of the most experienced grapplers out there? What’s this first day at the Bjj academy? 0 technique 0 art 1 point for sportsmanship tho👍🏼

Hi

Kerimov technique is soo bad. Just pure laziness.

caramba

luta orrivel

What's with the horrible music?? Is it edited in?? And what's with the stupid cat walk ??? Who organized this?? Andy Warhol??

Luta bosta

Russian horse

its time to retire dean. hang it up.

Wow Kerimov is bad. All he has is his massive size, no skill.
