Ben changed the folkstyle game, legend in the folkstyle world.

I agree 100%

He is very enjoyable to watch and the goat I agree with you

Also agree 100%. He is the greatest.

For me too is Buvaisar Saitiev the king of wrestling no doubt. And 74 kg is the most difficult division, it is where strength, speed and agility are perfectly matched

They are so sneaky good at getting cheap exposures in scrambles and just hitting weird sneaky stuff. I'm calling it sneaky but in reality you're correct it's just savvy wrestling. That's why I love Taylor so much he like embodies the attack attack attack of the American style.

I think saitiev and sadulaev are on same page

@@hamzaakbar5287 When Sadulaev reaches 11 world titles, spanning over 2 decade, then we can talk.

@@kallepikku4991 saitiev won 9 world titles, sadulaev need 2 more titles to match him. He is 7 now and need 2 more

@@kallepikku4991 also tank moving division and he's beating them all and he's young

Greco Roman is Mijain Lopez

he looked pretty happy with his wife after getting ko'd by Jake (not conspiracy theorist, just further evidence of Ben not caring to prepare sufficiently for the Paul fight).

@@redsnflr that paycheck made him hzppy

@@redsnflr I still believe he took a dive for the paycheck, and I don't blame him. He should enjoy a but of money for all of the unpaid work he basically did for the sport of wrestling.

@@lapermits6193 he didnt take a dive he just has trash standup and the guy is old with a hip injury tf did you expect

@@user-nc4lo8wc2m Then what was Tyrone Woodley/Ben Aksren's friend's excuse?

I came here to ask the same question, is Karelin not the GOAT?

Hulk Hogan held the belt more times and longer.

@@edt7780 Karelin wrestled Greco.

@@edt7780 in the beginning of the vid they narrowed it down to folkstyle and freestyle...

I'll never believe that Russians at some point don't dope in there careers once the whole Russian scandal came out last Olympics. I'm sorry but that country just fucked themselves in sports in most people's eyes for a long time

You can tell his confidence is on bladt

Blast

@@robertconklin3850 My lad you can edit your comment 😂 But l agree he seems well

I mean, he needed a silly amount of surgeries before he signed with the UFC

🤣🤣

Heavyweight always have the worst wrestlers. Least skilled division. And nobody really does Greco Roman. Those two factors have to be taken into consideration when talking about greatest wrestlers

they are talking only folkstyle and freestyle, Karelin was Greco, but overall wrestling yeah hes the GOAT and its not very close

If you watch Satiev you see such a variety of scoring techniques that you just don't see from most guys. He could arm throw, inside trip, fireman's carry, leg lace, gut wrench, single leg, high crotch, slide by, body lock, crotch lock, judo throws, etc......

@@samuelgardner5939 couldn’t have said it better myself, every wrestler has a go to, saitiev could score on anyone from anywhere, he was truly dangerous from every position and more importantly he was comfortable

He was such a beast, those two brothers took gold in 3 straight Olympics

They do, but no movies are made about it, and if they are made, nobody cares. It's about who has more money, simple as that.

@@nettlecarrier8259 100%

I believe they signed bilyal before. I may be wrong

you have to seperate the styles of wrestling, in Greco its Aleksander Karelin decisively, there is pretty much no close no 2, hes also in accomplishments arguably the GOAT overall in wrestling. Folkstyle is only done in America but is very SImilar to Freestyle which is worldwide, usually the American freestyle competitors are originally folkstyle. the top 3 american wrestlers are Cael Sanderson, John Smith and Dan Gable, some would also say Jordan Burroughs. who you think should be no 1 between those is really subjective, personally i have Sanderson as no 1. Freestyle is what the rest of the world does, the top 3 there are Buvaisar Saitiev, Abdulrashid Sadulaev and Alexander Medved, Medved is probably no 1 in accomplishments but theres no footage so most people dont put him at no 1. between Saitiev and Sadulaev is again subjective, I have Saitiev at no 1. so from those names you can research about them and pick your GOATS. for me its Karelin for greco, Sanderson for Folkstyle and Saitiev for Freestyle. hope that was helpful, have a good day.

Yes And no Greco

He's grecko

Freestyle??? They are talking about freestyle wrestling

Karelin is Greco

They were talking about the greatest freestyle wrestler. Also, Mijaín has surpassed Karelin.

@@DaveTheDopeFiend Greco competition is a joke today

Saitiev is

Exactly why any UFC athlete tested by USADA “United States Anti Doping Agency” that lives outside the US is doping. Literally every Brazilian fighter is juiced to the gills

@@xboxgamerhr Has more to do with American style training, which is much more focused on strength and conditioning. Eastern European is much more focused on technique.

The sport with the most steroids by far is MLB baseball. Cycling is a distant second.

Yeah, one of the best in cheating

Jones by murder

Satiev

Freestyle man they are talking about freestyle

but watch new they fight snyder use same tactic but sadulaev beata him pretty badly 6.0 3-1 ..1 lucky win for snyder..so no excusee..just admit dagestn the best

​@@muhammadnajmi8545yea best at scrotch sniffing,at fighting its GSP or Bones jones. USA

they specified its only Freestyle and Folkstyle, Karelin was Greco Roman

​@@Suplex479 are the two styles significantly different?

@@jackjack4412 different sport with different rules, in Greco you are not allowed to use your legs or to grab your opponents legs, meaning the techniques are completely different

Best on the planet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@brandon7733 Best on MMA he means. Pure freestyle wrestling are Sadulaev and Saitiev which are both from Khabib's country or region.

Dudes, Khabib started wrestling from age 4 I think? His father was a wrestling coach so to this he was a part time wrestler is super short sighted. The muscle memory he would have built would far outway most people due to age started. His style of wrestling will differ a bit although I believe it would be very competitive with Ben. My opinion though and to each his own.

@@stonedphilosopherza4915 he has never won a meaningful competition in wrestling as an adult but he’s suppose to be the best on the planet 😂. His fan boys are so annoying.

@@stonedphilosopherza4915 People underrate his hands for MMA. Things are different when you take out that element. Depends heavily on the ruleset who would win with Askren.

This is the same as if you say “California is not USA”

@@marshallmathers6896 do Californian speak another language than the rest of the USA ?

@@aminecougar6160 I live in south part of Russia too and I have a lot of friends from there. They have never said that Dagestan is not Russia. There are a lot of nationalities here and every has his native language but it doesn’t mean that it’s not part of a country

These are Muslims first. Then you can say Russian or dagastan ect ​@@marshallmathers6896

Proof?

I don’t think you understand styles and how they affect fights.

Ben was at the end of his career when he signed to the UFC after multiple surgeries and I'm not even a big fan of this guy but his wrestling was unreal in his prime he was so dominant and it's a fight anything can happen to say a GSP fight would've been a one sided soul snatching just shows your casual side lmao do you remember when Matt Serra beat the fuck out of GSP and won the belt? Lol that fight right there shows anyone can lose on any given day
