i haven't the slightest clue what i just saw lol...

Well said, Mikey ain't no slouch, he's an awesome guy

Huh? The older man acted like a sore loser.

@@ambientartphotography2245 nothing as fragile as a male ego of a fighter

Mikey acts like a toddler that got his toy taken when ppl don't want to have a hugfest after a match. And he looks at the crowd for approval and support like a wimp too. He's pathetic in that way.

No he is not. He acts like a kid, even though he is almost 30. He is weird, awkward, and... whatever

@@BP-vr3rt wow, a response to my 2 year old comment! I agree with you - those are the reasons people like him - he doesn't fit the typical character (which I am sorry to say isn't usually anything to want to be)

@@BP-vr3rt and you hate online in KZfaq comments and.... whatever

I looked him up and found this after an interview I saw that he did with Joe Rogan. He talks about pizza the whole time and it's great. He exudes a youthful/pure spirit. That's exactly how he comes across to me in this match.

@@BP-vr3rt He is 24 not 30.

I like Mikey but I want to call out this comment. Not your comment only, but it's one in a series of many like this praising Mikey but not acknowledging he could do better. In this particular instance here's why: I don't think Mikey did the best job in not upsetting Bruno here. After Bruno spat the dummy by refusing to shake his hand, the best move would have been to ignore and not make a thing of it and discuss it discretely afterwards. But instead Mikey very openly and publicly denounced him and led the audience into jeering at him. I like that Mikey is outspoken about this sort of thing, but in terms of social dynamics I don't think he handles at the best way. And his actions here were certainly not screaming "I really don't want Bruno to be upset". Not the best example to follow in my opinion.

Muestra su humildad y buen respeto q tiene a sus oponentes !

@@swazza9999 Act childish and get childish treatment I guess. If they were friends or close family then doing it privately works. if they're two professionals setting the standard out in public teaches the sore loser a lesson and the world on what an example is set. Have you thought about the consequences of him not doing what he did and the thousands of people plus the youth that watch this would think its okay to act the way the ex champ acted? at least now the world sees.

@@BM-wp7nh yeah but now all those people dream of humiliating someone in public like Mikey did. I think it was pretty obvious to most people that his opponent was being an ass. What's really subtle is that Mikey is kind of being one too. Bruno's mistake takes the emotional of maturity of a 15 year old to spot. Many adults may never learn to spot Mikey's.

@@swazza9999 from the angle in which you are approaching it what you are saying makes sense, ultimately both atheletes could've handled the matters in different ways. Mikey could lack the wisdom as he was 24 there and as time goes by he would learn to react differently. the other fighter was far more immature with his lack of respect to another fighter which to me justifies how someone would react the way mikey did with his lack of wisdom. Yet the truth stands, if you were the salty athlete and you were treated like a 15 year old in front of the public you might have the ability to self reflect and learn from your wrongful attitude or build resentment. Either scenario showcases that he is a salty fighter with a lack of emotional IQ and it has been shown to the world. I could write an essay on why both of them have missed reality cues. The reality still stands though, no one is perfect and majority of people would never be smart enough to capture the small details. have a blessed day.

dork

that's awesome. Had I known about it..I would of headed up there too from here in San Diego.

@@thebigboss2744 how

Nah

*sarcasm

It’s very Brazilian to be douchey though. So no shake for Mikey

@@moeveggies2292 no it’s not; why the acidity against an entire people? Bruno was frustrated and Mikey deserved the shake!

@@matheuscsmed yes it is , they think they are the only ones that can be good in this sport thats why they are all douchey

Give him a break bro ...Is the heat of the match.

@@jackostripes5452 Dude he pulled his hand away and brushed his hair like a child?

As tall as a child... as mature as a child.

it bummed me out. I love watching Bruno compete, but this made me lose a little respect for him.

Dude, they are not rolling in the gym, its Ibjjf worlds. Of course he is sour.

It would have funny if it was just a good spirited joke and he laughed and then shook his hand. Poor sportsmanship.

Kkk vdd. Musumeci gênio

🤣🤣🤣

For real! What a sore loser.

Fue un mal perdedor

I think you would be too if you had just lost such an important tournament

@@abvgeikacare7243 Still, that's an act contrary to sports manship.

Abvgeika Care The respect must exist even if you lost the match, bro. In any sport or situation.

Wesley Thomaz Amarrar uma luta é uma atitude anti esportiva também.

It humbled you. I went to a free class at a local jiu jitsu and got absolutely wrecked by people far less physically imposing. Being in situations where your adversary can break your arm or choke you to death May the trivialities of life less important. It puts life into perspective and brings about balance

Probably the result of it being so nuanced and patience being needed to execute your plan. Not that striking doesn't have those qualities as well, it's just a little more suspectable to flash wins. But I'm sure its the culture surrounding it and what kind of etiquette they "demand".

He reminds me of the actor on the Good Doctor lol

o mikey ganhou o mundial e ainda se formou na faculdade de medicina ao mesmo tempo .... pensa num cara que vem superando td.

BOBÃO KKKKKKKK

Wow

What is the name of the submission he used at the end?

@@poker1face I don't see any submission attempts in the last 5 minutes of the match, time ran out

you mean new BJJ guys alot of hold heads dont do leg locks, that being said bjj has gotten so damn boring with the leg lock game that slap BJJ came out , that being said plenty of great Leg fighters that are super exciting but those who dont watch any bjj and see this will just say ...why doesn't he punch the guy going for leg locks lol it just isnt good in a real fight look at Ryan hall and how he got smashed going for leg locks that how it looks when you fight going for leg locks against a trained opponent it only works super high percentage with folks who never train leg locks

@@rockzen8050 I disagree. and ryan hall has really a good resume, he may have got stopped by illia but hey that's the fight game its 50/50.

Foi lutão, mas esse seu argumento de merda tira o crédito de qualquer comentário, em qualquer esporte. Em 99,9% dos casos, quem analisa o jogo não é atleta profissional, não treina como profissional e nem por isso não entende do esporte. Abraço. Oss

@@Pedro173401 argumento de merda é, o seu é plausível pedrinho?

convivio No espaço Releia. Nao argumentei nada. Só falei que seu raciocínio desqualifica qualquer opinião em qualquer esporte. Bom domingo, zezao.

Pra ser bem sincero, eu acho que eles sim amarram bastante a luta, e eu também acredito que eu consigo passar a guarda deles.

@@user-xf4fl Boaa!! rsrs

amarrar a luta por mais de 30 segundos

Definitely but then matches take hours and it's difficult to impossible to hold a tournament

1. According to Malfacine, they had some private conflict unrelated to this particular match. 2. Malfacine should not have behaved that way (and he acknowledged that), especially baiting Musumeci with an extended hand only to move it away. 3. This being said, it's also poor sportsmanship to be stalling when you're ahead on points, like Musumeci did. Yes, it's not against the rules (you just accept the penalty for that, that's all within the ruleset), but good sportsmanship is what goes beyond just following the rules. 4. It's also better to give your opponent a moment to recollect and regain composure, especially after a high stakes match like a world championship finale. Offering a handshake really can wait for after the verdict - give someone a bit of space and a moment to accept their loss. None of these excuse Malfacine's behavior, but I'm trying to be objective.

Mitchell Khan so true. Last thing I want to do is smile before a match and hug immediately after if I lost.

Good point

I completely agree on the point towards letting Hugo gather himself, however I do believe in Mikey's situation he genuinely is a good kid, and probably told Hugo after 'You expect me not to stall when im winning? You're too good, if I give you any chance you will find a way.' I just don't believe Mikey's original intentions where bad, I think he actually likes Hugo and was surprised. Glad they hugged it out at the end though, proper men.

No one is above the stalling tactic, EVERY person does it when they can. Being nice before hand is stupid because that's obviously a mental tactic. But after if you can't shake hands and be an adult about, especially if you have already won it that many times, it shows you really have nothing else going for you. Like all Bruno is is a 10x World Champion or what ever. His merits end there with this kind of behavior.

Agree with you. However, he could have just said "wait a minute please" instead of mocking him. That was lame.
