Wrong type of shit.
UFC 15: Mark Kerr vs. Ranger Stott

In Mixed Martial Arts, a fighter can be knocked out instantly, slowly beaten into a puddle, or submitted from out of the blue. As a sport, it is the leading generator of oh shit moments, which is any moment that makes you say that. Here are the top eight.

Due to the nature of expletives, this was a difficult list to put together. “Oh shit!” can mean so many things. I’m terrible at examples, but say you’re at brunch, you might shout, “Oh shit, that brunch ghost has a knife!” Whereas someone else might be jumping out of a birthday cake going, “Ohhh, shit! Which one of you fellas is having a birthday party? Oh shit– Grandpa?! Oh… shit, I bet your grandson leaping from a cake with his dick out is the kind of memory that comes with a Get Out of Alzheimer’s Free card.”

Because the expression has such varied usage, this will not be a simple Top Something list. Instead, I will list only the best MMA moment from eight separate uses of oh shit.

Oh shit!
PRIDE Shockwave: Bob Sapp vs. Rodrigo Nogueira
Bob “The Beast” Sapp is 400 pounds, and if 300 pounds of it aren’t pure steroids, then someone has got to be fucking kidding. Going into his fight with Nogueira, his MMA record was 2-0 against two Japanese fighters 1/3 his size. Both fights were identical: TKO via ape spaz, followed by a post-fight interview of, “Paant! Wheeeeze! Paaaant!”

Antonio Rodrigo Minotauro Nogueria is widely regarded as one of the best heavyweight submission experts ever. So this was not so much a matchup between top contenders as it was a field test of jiu jitsu against wild animals. So no one was ready for the oh shit! when Nogueria shot for a single leg and Bob Sapp gut-wrenched him up from the mat and fucking PILEDRIVED him.
Nogueria is legally unkillable, so he shrugged it off, but the move was so awesome that Sapp wanted to relive the moment at all costs. This changed after three more failed, desperate piledriver attempts, when he mostly just wanted a nap. Nogueria won a few minutes later with a straight armbar.

To the Japanese, this was like beating Jesus in a fish-making contest. Bob Sapp was the center of Japan’s media. He had a music video, endorsed hundreds of products, and their tiny people lined up for the honor of being eaten by him. He was the Japanese equivalent of the ‘85 Bears, Crocodile Dundee, Muhammad Ali, and the California Raisins all in one.

He was making so much money that he didn’t give a fuck. He used to joke that he could corner the ass-wiping market tomorrow by putting his face on one brand of toilet paper. If there was a paycheck involved, he did whatever. He ate bananas and acted like a gorilla on Japanese TV, which in the black community is like beggin’ whitey’s pardon and askin’ if a softshoe would be to his likin’. It was racist to a point that even Bryant Gumbel called him an Uncle Tom. And Bryant Gumbel is so white that he clutches his purse tighter when he passes by President Obama.

Oh, SHIT!
Pride Critical Countdown 2004: Fedor Emelianenko vs. Kevin Randleman
Fedor Emelianenko is a merciless knockout machine that emerged from the ruins of war torn Stalingrad to avenge the angry dead. Kevin Randleman is a wrestler whose body was kidnapped by science and mostly replaced with horse DNA. After an early takedown by Randleman, Fedor scrambled to his feet and gave Randleman his back. It is stupidly inadequate to say that what followed next was the greatest suplex in the suplexiverse.

Randleman brought Fedor up in a perfect arc, jumped off his feet, and trebuchet’ed the weight of both of them directly on the point of Fedor’s head. It was like he was trying to make dinosaurs extinct again. When wheelchair salesmen watch it, their eyeballs turn to dollar signs.

But instead of bravely learning to walk again years later, Fedor swept him, got side control, punched him in the head 18 times, jumped to north-south, and locked in a kimura. All in the span of 45 seconds. For baseball fans, this is like getting your eye knocked out by a fastball, then hitting 16 home runs with one swing.

After the fight, a reporter asked Fedor how he was able to recover from such a devastating throw, and through a translator Fedor explained, “It didn’t affect me. I train to fall great distances.” Oh, shit.

Ohhh shit!
UFC 4: Joe Son vs. Keith Hackney
In the early days of the UFC, there were no rules! Snarl! Except asterisk: you weren’t allowed to bite people or drag them around by their eye or mouth holes. This lack of rules usually led to a wrestler throwing his opponent down and clumsily headbutting them until there was nothing but a bloody crater. But in UFC 4, Keith Hackney’s fists painted a no-rules masterpiece on the canvas of Joe Son’s balls.

After the fight went to the ground, Keith Hackney passed to side mount. Or as it was known back then, hey-get-up-and-do-karate-you-queers position. Joe Son confusedly held onto a kind-of guillotine headlock which left Keith’s right arm free to do whatever it wanted. And it wanted to pound balls.

Keith’s bareknuckled hand repeatedly and single-mindedly drove itself into Joe Son’s inadequate cup. The fact that it took over six blows for Joe Son to tap out can mean only one thing: vagina.

Joe Son never quite recovered from this. Using his own Jo Son Do fighting system, which I think is just Korean for “rape,” he lost every fight in his career, one of them while wearing a thong over his jockstrap. What a Fashion Don’t! That’s like your dick wearing socks with sandals.

And that wasn’t his only fashion faux pas, girlfriend. Sometimes he came to the ring in dramatic 70’s eyeshadow. He looked like a chubby alien girl trying to get Captain Kirk’s attention. Captain’s Log: Not enough space beers in the universe, homo. Captain’s Secret Log: No one must know the terrible mistake I made after 15 space beers.

There’s more to Joe Son than his caved-in balls and lady’s makeup, though: his love of Christ, throwing a shoe at Austin Powers, and of course Joe Son Do. Which now according to the state of California, actually is rape. I think Keith Hackney might have been a time traveller who went back to preemptively destroy Joe Son’s balls like you’d kill Hitler as a baby.

Watch the fight on Youtube, at least the ohhh shit! part.

Ohshit.
Fight Festival 12: Gilbert Yvel vs. Atte Backman
One of the greatest MMA knockouts is Gilbert Yvel high kicking Gary Goodridge unconscious in the only move of the fight. Atte Backman must have seen this too, because his fight strategy against Yvel was leaping onto him like a toy koala bear on a pencil.

While Gilbert struggled to get free of Atte’s pointless death grip, the two of them almost toppled over the ropes in a Greco clinch. In cases like this, the referee breaks the fighters up and tries to reset them as close as possible to how they were. This was fine with Atte, who was here to hug, but Gilbert was here to punch faces. A comical argument ensued as the referee and Atte tried to get the perfect hug reinstated while Gilbert kept pushing them away and getting in a boxing stance.

Everyone involved had wills of iron.
“Hug me, Yvel!”
“Fuck you, Atte!”
“Hug him, Yvel!”
Fuck you, ref!”

Suddenly, Mr. Yvel thought of the perfect win-win situation to these guys getting in the way of his face punching: punching the referee in the face! Eureka, and knockout. And just to show that this wasn’t some kind of accident, he kicks him when he’s down.

It’s situations like this that test a man. What would you do if you saw a trained fighter attacking a helpless man and you’re the only one who can save him? Well, this is my favorite part: if you’re Atte Backman, you immediately run for the ropes and get out of the ring! “You’re on your own, ref! That motherfucker’s crazy! You can kiss Atte’s ass!”

Ohhh, shiiit!
UFC 43: Marvin Eastman vs. Vitor Belfort
Vitor’s first four fights in the UFC were all the same. He ran in, punched his opponent in the face 70,000 times in ten seconds, and then his corner would cheer “jiu jitsu! jiu jitsu!” in victory. I think it must be portuguese for “face doctor! face doctor!” But whatever it means, Marvin Eastman should have been ready and should have brought helmet.

One minute in, a gash opens up on Eastman’s head so big that you could look in and see what he was thinking. Much like the virgin Mary appearing on a piece of toast, his forehead conjured the image of Joe Son’s knuckle-beaten vagina. It was so wide it had time zones. The doctor stitching him up had to put the needle in one end, then take a boat to the other. Needless to say, they stopped the fight so someone could cover the awful thing with some panties.

This was another difficult category to pick, since I also said a similar ohhh, shiiit! during PRIDE FC 1, where dick kickboxer Branko Cikatic illegally booted Ralph White in the head when he was down. Ralph, victor by DQ, immediately grew a silly putty egg on his forehead that ballooned into a pantyhose egg before our very eyes. To make it stranger, his cornerman was Dave “Apollo” Cook, who played a douchebag in the documentary Choke, couldn’t stop fucking with it. As the bump grew and grew, “Apollo” was poking, rubbing, and polishing it like a kid with a dead squirrel.

If I hadn’t specified MMA moments, this spot on the list would have gone to the K-1 match of Jerome LeBanner vs. Cyril Abidi. Something… evil happened during the first round, and it caused LeBanner’s forehead to swell to full elephant man. You wouldn’t know by looking, but LeBanner spent the entire fight kicking Abidi’s ass. Unfortunately, it takes exactly the same amount of time to kick a Frenchman’s ass as it does to gestate a forehead pregnancy to full term.

Oh shit.
UFC 2: Fred Ettish vs. Johnny Rhodes
UFC 2 was crazy. It was a sixteen man tournament, meaning you had to beat four guys in one night. And when you have sixteen men, who thinks to bring backups? This led to a problem when one fighter couldn’t continue in the quarterfinals.

But there is no problem that can’t be solved with Ettish. Fred Ettish was backstage, enjoyed karate, and never doesn’t have a karate outfit with him. He emerged as a replacement fighter, still putting his gi on, while the announcer Rich “G-Man!” Goins struggled to read his fighting style from a card. “Shoren ee riimatsu… goren? Kenpo karate!”

He faced Johnny Rhodes, a doughy but tough kickboxer. The bell rings and Ettish strikes a pose. He throws a snap kick exactly like the picture in his Bruce Tegner karate book. It hits exactly where he threw it and he, Johnny Rhodes, and the people watching from home all say the same thing: oh shit. A guy who trains with nine year olds at the YMCA is in a real fight.

The fight was a perfect storm of catastrophe. Johnny was just clumsy enough that he couldn’t finish Ettish off. He beat Ettish into a meatloaf while he curled into variations on the fetal position and tried to somehow pull it together long enough to personally invent how to fight. The referee thought he was only there to check people for ninja stars, so he had no idea it was his responsibility to save someone from this type of savagery. He was only there to enforce no rules! Mercifully, Johnny Rhodes stopped dropping fist bombs on Fred Ettish’s head long enough to give it a hug, and Fred Ettish had a chance to tap out to the “choke.”

Fred Ettish never appeared in the UFC again until minutes later when the bloody remains of his face popped up behind Johnny Rhodes during the post-fight interview. It was ignored by Rhodes himself, and the production crew.

Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit!
PRIDE 21: Don Frye vs. Yoshihiro Takayama
Don Frye looks like an old west sheriff, and Takayama looks like Japan tried to make their own Hulk Hogan out of juiced grapes. When they faced off, the two of them somehow, without speaking, managed to come to some kind of gentleman’s agreement. They decided the only move each of them would use is grabbing the opponent’s head with one hand, and punching it over and over with the other.

Within seconds, it turned into a sublime combination of ultra violence and slapstick. As they pound, pound, pounded each other’s skulls, you could see all the faces in the crowd light up with joy. Grown men, little girls– they’d been waiting their whole lives for this one perfect moment! Your brain damage does not happen in vain, Frye and Takayama!

Oh shit?
PRIDE Bushido 7: Charles “Krazy Horse” Bennett vs. Yoshiro Maeda
“Krazy Horse” isn’t a cute nickname. Charles Bennett is a legitimate lunatic. And when he’s not strangling people professionally and recreationally, he loves to do celebratory backflips off the ring ropes. Almost always with near-death results.

I… think that’s what he had in mind when he knocked out Maeda. He cheered and ran straight for the ropes, but in his excitement, he forgot to run the idea through his head. Without cutting his momentum, he flew right over the ropes and into what I imagine is either oblivion or alligators. We’ll never know. Once it’s clear that Krazy Horse is falling to his death, the director cuts away to a shot of Bennett’s downed opponent. We’re left to assume that Charles Bennett… is lost forever.

Oh shi– OH SHIT!
TUF 4 Finale: Scott Smith vs. Pete Sell
Three minutes into the second round, Pete Sell hits Scott Smith with a huge left to the body. Most people reading have taken a body shot or had the wind knocked out of them. But what many people don’t understand is what it’s like to get hit in the liver. It’s the liver’s job to filter toxins out of your body. And when somebody’s left hand or foot slams into it, it’s like every cocktail you ever drank, every poisonous insect that crawled in your mouth while you slept… they’re all released back into your body at the same time. The end result is a lot like getting knocked out, only you’re awake for it. Your arms and legs stop working and you see an Indian with an extra horse beckoning you into the woods.

This happened to Scott Smith, and he doubled over like a cartoon. Pete Sell was stunned by his own bad assedness for a moment, then rushed in to finish his helpless opponent, purely as a technicality. But Scott! Smith! Was! Not! Done!!! He threw an overhand right into Sell’s face that removed a year of elementary school from his brain. The two collapsed on each other Rocky II style, one unconscious and the other incapacitated. The ref declared it a knockout win for Smith, exactly zero seconds before he rolled onto his back and waited to join his brothers in Valhalla. Oh, shit!

    In a DDT the attacker can protect the defender by holding them so that their head doesn’t actually reach the ground. In a Ganso Bomb it’s a unprotected sheer drop.

    There seem to be nine, not eight uses of “Oh Shit.” Counting fail.

    Also, you neglected to mention just how unkillable Noguiera is. Namely, how he got run over by a truck when he was a kid and got put into a coma, only to GAR his way out of it and become a badass. You can still see this indentation in his back where they had to surgically removed a rib.

  75. someoldguy Says:

    I laughed like a loon at this article. And I have some context for that laughter, if you feel like reading a long-ass anecdotal comment.

    I’ve known two guys who were into MMA - one competed, the other didn’t - and their psychology was strikingly similar. The two men never met, either; one lived in the midwest, the other in the southeast.

    The competitor lost his father in very early childhood, and the replacement stepfathers (there were several) made for a lot of disapproving old men who wanted him out of the picture. This probably is what drove him to such hyper-masculine behavior; to be an even bigger and tougher man than all of them put together. To reverse the roles he knew as a child.

    The other guy was similar. His parents divorced when he was a kid, and his father was a real boss hog deep south policeman asshole who never supported his own son in any way. His mother wasn’t so sweet, either. The stepfather was a cruel bastard, but at least he would try to get along from time to time. This meant the world to the guy, despite how poorly he was treated otherwise.

    So it seems “daddy issues” is what drives guys like this to want to beat each other half to death. They all want to be the biggest and baddest men in the world, because they were made to feel so small and powerless while growing up.

    I would say they ought to confront those issues and try to overcome them so they can live a brighter and more enjoyable life. But most of those meatheads don’t have the intellect to do so. Beating each other’s brains out is probably the apogee of achievement for them.

  76. kikibatsu Says:

    I have to say, Seanbaby. When it comes to writing comedy….this is going to sound ridonkulous I know…but your word choice is so hilarious, I find myself actually coming back just to read sentences you wrote over again. There are very few comedy writers I find myself doing that with. I would say keep up the good work…but you have been at this for like..what…13 years now? So..uh…continue doing that thing you be doing.

  81. Markus Says:

    Does anything please you, haters? Anything at all?

    Every article Seanbaby has written for this site is immediately bombarded with comment like “You suck!”, “Not funny!”, “You don’t belong here!” or “This other jerkface on this site is funnier than you are!”. Since you’ve all seemed to elect yourselves as the Mayors of Comedytown, why don’t you start writing for the site then? Or does your obvious lack of a sense of humour cripple your abilities to do anything?

    Anyways. Great article Seanbaby. You write some hilarious shit. Keep up the good work.

    Awesome article… best Ive ever read… funny as shit.
    One problem…
    It says Fedor is a knockout machine and hes only got 2-3 of his W’s via T/KO, hes a ‘punch your face to death then break off your arm’ machine.

  96. CrapJacks Says:

    5 words: Denis Kang vs Murilo Rua. Holy fuck, holy fuck…

  97. GAHWUH!? Says:

    Honestly, this was easily one of the best articles I’ve ever read on Cracked. As a longtime fan of both this website and MMA, I demand a sequel. As many of my fellow fans have noted, there are many more MMA moments worth mentioning, although this was a very solid and hilarious list. How about throwing in Rampage’s powerbomb vs Arona? Or Masvidal being choked out by the inverted triangle in Bellator recently? The Herring-Nakao KO defnintely deserves a mention. Maybe even a few of Shogun’s face-stomps that actually landed. I know I flipped my shit when Genki Sudo bounced off the ropes and ninja-turtle flying side-kicked (AKA “Fred Ettish”-ed) the elastic cartilage out of Butterbean’s hamsprout of a neck. Just some thoughts.

    Thanks for posting this, I loved it.

    Good job!

  101. Spizzy Says:

    I love you Seanbaby. You are my father’s father’s son’s son’s son.

    Problem I have with MMA is that with every one of these moments, you have a million moments of two dudes rollin’ around not doin’ anything. I understand that it’s strategy, but I get bored easy. Which is why I watch WWE, where men like to talk each other down for 15 minutes before doing anything.

    And before I get all of the WWE bashers on my ass, let me give a side note:

    THIS IS A COMMENT SECTION ON A COMEDY WEBSITE. I DO NOT CARE THAT YOU THINK MY HOMO FAUX SPORT IS STUPID. I DO NOT CARE THAT YOU EXIST, BECAUSE FOR ALL I KNOW YOU DON’T.

    Still, that won’t get through anyone’s head.

  106. Rasha Sugar Evans is the best Says:

    From MMA IS THE BEST:
    “who ever said “fuck mma” is a stupid dumb fuck who has never seen or been in a real fight boxing dosent do shit when you get knocked on the groud your a dumn nigggggerrrrrrr go suckk a boxers cock assuming he has one”

    Wow man you are one racist prick. How do you think guys like Rashad Evans, Lyoto Machida, Tito Ortiz, or Takanori Gomi would feel if they heard that from one of their “MMA supporters? Get with the times man racism is dying. Oh and to Jimmy Donahue, quit talking smack. Why don’t you try and create an article, structure it, and try to make it hilarious? I think you’re just a bitter loner with no self esteem who has to hide behind a monitor like a “keyboard warrior” just to make himself feel better. I’m sorry your daddy didn’t love you enough.
    To Fuck MMA? Listen man quit hiding inside your plush Orange County house bumping that Tupac thinking you’re hood like Mayweather. MMA is a growing sport and it’s just hitting the mainstream. Boxing has had many many years to go and develop itself and it does take a ton of training and determination to get into and so does MMA. In MMA you do have to cross train in order to stay on top (a la Georges St. Pierre). Why don’t you watch an MMA event with a BJJ expert. He’ll tell you how everything works.

  107. Jimmy Donahue Says:

  112. Pyx Says:

    This makes no sense to someone who doesn’t give a crap about ‘greased, buff dudes who hug the shit out of each other’.

    It is probably very funny to the target audience, but you’d find better readers by shopping it as a comedy article to an actual MMA website.

    Not trying to be an asshole here, but it just didn’t feel like a cracked.com article. It’s not even a similar format.

  113. stutts Says:

    really? it’s all about boxing? because even if you’ve never participated in either, all you have to do is think about it and automatically you’ll understand mma is much more complicated. in boxing, your combinations can be as extensive as you want them to be. in mma, throw more than 3 punches and you’ll have to defend the takedown. in boxing, you can slip a jab, weave under the straight, and come back with a left hook of your own. in mma, you try to slip a jab and you get kicked in the head. in boxing, you train exclusively with your hands, day in and day out. come fight time, there’s really hardly anything your opponent can do to suprise you because no matter what, he’s completely limited to punching. in mma, train exclusively with your hands, you get taken down, mounted, you give your back after getting punched in the face, and then you’re choked out. game over. i mean come on, there’s just so much more to mma than boxing. that being said, i bought the pacquiao vs. hatton fight earlier this month because i’m a strong supporter for both sports

    Seanbaby, this is by far the funniest thing I have ever read on this website. You are the man. Keep it coming. And if you want, keep doing articles about MMA. I can’t stop laughing about “…one year of elementary school knocked from his brain before rolling over to join his brothers in Valhalla.”

    HAHAHAHA…. Oh my GOD, dude. Fucking hillarious.

  117. Ominous Chris Says:

    Seanbaby, your mastery of hyperbole is simply sublime. I don’t even LIKE mixed martial arts and I thought this was beautiful. Except for all the blood and carnage, of course.

    Actually the blood and carnage too, in retrospect.

  118. Steve Lieber Says:

    Brilliant, Seanbaby. The Indian with an extra horse line is going to haunt me for years.

  119. Big_G Says:

    Oh god, I felt so bad for Fred Ettish. It’s so motherfucking hilarious the way that the commentators lionise his ability to take hits. A personal favourite: “I think Johnny’s showing some empathy…which is a good thing” wow. Two fighter’s that are supposedly in the same league, in fact Ettish is like 4 levels above Rhodes on the Karate Hierarchy. The final scene in which Ettish’s vacuous husk is jadedly staring into the camera before being ignored by EVERYONE (probably including the medical staff as he’s still bleeding) enabled Fred Ettish to win the 1984 Personification of Dejection award (PODA), congratulations Fred! and as a prize? Free, yes free dry cleaning for that gee which was sullied by your ‘hero juice’ being spilled.

    I did laugh out loud quite a bit as well. However I must concur with a few of the other commentors. Only that 1) list could have been longer (obviously a good thing, it just means more good comedy!) and 2) there’s at least 2 videos of people breaking their SHINS on YouTube. A few people said it before, the corey hill leg break will change lives! Joe Rogan does everything BUT say “oh shit.” As much as I want to go and kick things when I get angry, I think of corey hill, then go back to calmly playing video games

I just don’t like the fucking fact that you put in that fucking Ruskie Fedor in your fucking article. Fuck that guy and his faggot Sambo styles.

    Search Youtube for “Savate Fighter vs. Sumo Fighter”. It’s basically a pre-weight-class UFC fight pitting Hawaiian E. Honda vs. Powder. It lasts about 25 seconds(despite what Bloodsport would have you believe, sumo wresting does NOT translate to MMA) and is damn funny.

    I didn’t think this was gonna be funny. It turned out to be one of the better sports articles on Cracked. Nice job.

  197. Iswearingpants Says:

    The explaination of the liver shot was on point! I’ve yet to find out what happens when you follow the indian into the woods though…

  198. Danni Says:

    Oh, I think it wasn’t clumsiness on the behalf of johnny Rhodes. I think he just realized how Ettish wan’t up for this at all and some form of pitty kicked in. I mean it’s probably one thing to mercilessly beat up some vicious fighter that knows what he’s doing… but I think none of those guys would beat up, say, a puppy.

  199. Barthimus Says:

    How did Heath Herring getting kissed by Yoshihiro Nakao during the stare down not make the list? That was two “oh shits” in one. First the kiss and then Herring promptly knocking the fucking shit out of Nakao because of the kiss. That was followed by Herring apologizing to the crowd for not being a homosexual.

    Simply the best read ive ever had on cracked.

    Hey cracked, did you know you can actually just link right to the point in the fight that you want us to see? Give it a try next time.

    Just add: “#t=XXmYYs” to the video link. xx = minutes yy = seconds

    I had to cover my mouth while reading this. I was at work and could barely keep from laughing out loud and giving away the fact that I wasnt doing any work.

    Truly a piece of art.

  205. Arucard Says:

    Oh Shit! This is the best article I’ve ever read.

  206. Crash Says:

    Best description of a hook to the liver I’ve ever read. Damn, that was funny.

    One of the best articles i’ve ever read on cracked!

  209. RoboSllim Says:

    Absolute gold. The metaphors, the imagery… Brilliant. I’m glad you’re here, Seanbaby!

  210. Bob Says:

    How about when Heath “Crazy Horse” Herring knocked out his Japanese opponent during the stare down when the guy tried to kiss him:

  212. Furnace Master Says:

    Holy shit Seanbaby makes me wet

  213. Kenneth Says:

    I agree that Seanbaby is easily the best writer on Cracked right now.
    I even read some of his stuff twice right after another

  214. Dr. Deridius Says:

    Don Frye vs. Yoshihiro Takayama was just wow! Brilliant article!

  216. redmeansdead Says:

    I agree. This is easily one of my top 10 favorite articles I’ve ever read on Cracked. I’m at work, so it was KILLING me trying not to laugh out loud, lest my boss find out how I spend my time when I’m not being watched.

  217. McDojo Says:

    Someone forgot to tell Fred Ettish that this wasn’t a Kata Demonstration tournament.

  218. Kalakutta Says:

    in the all-time list of awesome cracked articles

  219. Jake Says:

    I don’t give out praise very often but this was some of the best writing I’ve came across online. Well done.

  220. Zerocyde Says:

    Good article, and extremely funny jokes.

  221. PETE Says:

    Awesome article! Seanbaby is hands down the best writer on Cracked.com. Every sentence is perfectly written and hilarious. Cant wait for the next one!

  222. random240 Says:

    Can you please do every other MMA fight ever? Normally I don’t get that worked up over them but this was an awesome read.

    Best Oh Shit moment for me…

    “Oh shit! This article is fucking awesome!”

  225. Parisiano Says:

    Great read.. i’ve seen all those fights and not only did you explain well you also made me laugh more than a few times

  226. DROP DEAD JACK Says:

    Wow…I wasn’t a fan of Seanbaby…until now. Great article. Actually, the best one I’ve read on cracked.com in recent months!

  227. Gimp Says:

    too many niggers

  228. Mike Says:

    Great Article!

  229. Ben Says:

    Great article! Keep writing for Cracked!

    I think Gabriel Gonzaga’s KO kick to the head of Mierko Cro Cop a few years back was pretty nasty. It looked like Cro Cop’s head flew off.

  230. ohpoo Says:

    Also a big OH SHIT moment was when Fedor Emelianenko was basically knocked out on his feet and STILL managed to win by K.O.

  231. Laughing Hysterically Says:

    What an excellent posting. Thanks, Seanbaby. Keep em coming. ‘A guy who trains with nine-year-olds at the YMCA is in a real fight,’ was my favorite.

  232. ohpoo Says:

    awesome list, all classics

    mma definitely has some great oh shit moments

  233. obefiend Says:

    funniest article on cracked in years… i gotta agree with crypticcypher …the dan savern german DDT on the kungfu guy is real oh shot moment for me!!

  234. JanniR Says:

    Awesome article.

    In my opinion, there was more “Oh shit”-ness to the Krazy Horse fight than his victory suicide jump. I mean, I haven’t seen much of this kind of fighting, but I never thought I’d see someone do, in a real, not-WWF-fake match, what Krazy Horse does at the start of that match. I actually shouted “Holy shit!” when I saw his two-legged kick.

  235. EverlongRazor Says:

    I don’t think I can finish this at work. I nearly bit my tongue off trying to stifle the laughter…and it didn’t even help.

  236. saq Says:

    There should be a warning about not reading this at work for fear of getting fired.

  237. Erika Says:

    Absolutely, the funniest thing I have ever read. Dear. God.

  238. Matt Sayers Says:

    You need to write more MMA articles. Too many “journalists” cover the sport like it’s golf. Very entertaining.

    Just to add a couple more to the list.

    1. Kazushi Sakuraba Vs. Ricardo Arona: Sakuraba got cut and Arona fingered the cuts until Sakuraba’s eyes swelled shut. Truly disturbing.

    2. Mark Coleman 2000 Pride GP victory celebration. If you think Krazy Horse’s celebration was funny check this out. Coleman makes Igor Vovchanchynn submit due to knees to the head. Coleman proceeds to climb the ropes, fall, and tear off into the crowd hugging (mauling) little Japanese people.

  239. 1ijack Says:

    this is the funniest article i have ever read

  240. Cracked + MMA = Awesome - Fightlinker - MMA, UFC, and other funny fight crap Says:

    [...] Cracked.com has a list of the Top 8 ‘Oh Shit!’ Moments in MMA. Let me just say, it’s nothing short of awesome. Here’s what they had to say about the classic Frye vs. Takayama fight-to-the-death: Don Frye looks like an old west sheriff, and Takayama looks like Japan tried to make their own Hulk Hogan out of juiced grapes. When they faced off, the two of them somehow, without speaking, managed to come to some kind of gentleman’s agreement. They decided the only move each of them would use is grabbing the opponent’s head with one hand, and punching it over and over with the other. [...]

  241. splainintodo Says:

    And Bryant Gumbel is so white that he clutches his purse tighter when he passes by President Obama.

    +1

    There’s a photoshop-in-the-making

  242. Jiu-Jitsu Vale Tudo Says:

    That was one of the most well written articles I’ve ever read. Joe Son IS a convicted rapist BTW. So much for the loving Jesus and bringing the cross out to the octagon. You should have shown Mark Coleman’s roid rage moment after he lost to Russian Badass Fedor. Anyone who would have gotten in his way after the fight would have shit his pants. Oh yeah I think Vitor Belfort brought an axe with him to that fight that night.

  243. vis Says:

    The one-liners killed me.

    Also:Captain’s Log: Not enough space beers in the universe, homo. Captain’s Secret Log: No one must know the terrible mistake I made after 15 space beers.

    You’re not human to compose such consistently funny articles, seanbaby.

  244. Woot Says:

    Holy shit! I honestly can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard. This whole article was fucking hilarious!

  245. Mexican Samurai Says:

    The only thing I wanted to mention was that the Sapp/Noguiera match was 15 minutes long. Not 3. It went all the way to the second and Sapp beat the living shit out of Noguiera. Not only the piledriver but rocked him standing, defended a kneebar by sitting on his skull, and delivered a flying punch that would of made Sakuraba proud.

    Noguiera’s worst beating for sure.

  246. capecoddan Says:

    so funny i had to print this page out and read it in the bathroom of work cause i was laughing so hard after the first paragraph

  247. MacGyver1138 Says:

    Moments like these make MMA even greater.

    I’ve gotta agree with I-Rod on the Goodridge/Herrera KO. I saw that on a “Best UFC Knockouts” once, and I couldn’t help but think that Herrera woke up days later in the hospital with severe brain damage.

  248. Nonymous Says:

    Holy shit, I’m gonna have my roommate kick me in the liver now!

  249. Robert Brockway Says:

    I have never been interested in MMA, but that Krazy Horse video is pure comedy gold. I would give most anything to see the next ten seconds of that fight, because I am utterly convinced at this moment that he simply flew away because he was needed elsewhere.

  250. ClownShoes Says:

    HOLY CRAP! I haven’t even finished the article, I can’t read, I have tears pouring from my poor eyes! All it took was this one line… “And it wanted to pound balls.”
    Awww man, thats a classic. Okay, I think I’ll be fine now, hopefully I’ll be able to finish this sucker like Keith Hackney finished Joe Son’s balls.
    Great work!

  251. Dragonmago Says:

    I’ve seen UFC only a couple times, I gotta watch it more, seriously.

    “So big it had time zones”. I’m SO stealing that joke dude.

    An evidence of how funny this article was is that I know very little about the UFC (like I said, I’ve only watched it about two times) and yet I couldn’t stop laughing.

    Keep up the good work!

  252. Andyexcuse Says:

    Great article! Very funny, and you clearly know your stuff.

    You’ve probably already read these extraordinary posts from Fred Ettish about his fight, but just in case, here’s the link:

  256. willy beemin Says:

    You forgot big tim sylvia’s “OH SHIT” moment where he leaves a lil something extra in his shorts

  257. crypticcypher Says:

    Good list, but I think it missed the biggest oh shit moment I remember which was the triple german suplex by Dan “The Animal” Severn. That was the most videogame like moment in any MMA I have seen where he channeled King from Tekken and destroyed the poor lightweight sent in to fight him.

  258. Erik Says:

    I don’t watch fighting, so I don’t know much about it. But, funny overall.

  259. Jordan Says:

    That has to be the most i have laughed in ages.

    Great job Seanbaby

  260. Chris Clark Says:

    Somebody is a little over critical… Jack. I am looking at you.

  261. Pablo Says:

    Great list but Rampage’s slam on Arona has to be there

  262. Dapperdave Says:

    Wow….great stuff. I was a grumpy motherf*cker when I came to work this morning. But this turned me right around. It’s been a while since I laughed so much in one article. Thanks seanbaby.

  263. BM2 Says:

    Not too bad, actually. At least you got the Beast powerbomb, Frye-Takayama and the Randleplex. The rest are kinda odd choices that could probably be swapped out. Maybe for some newer stuff, like Zaromski’s moonsault double stomp. On the whole, though - not bad. At least it’s a somewhat unique list.

  264. Ibiza Diver Says:

    Nice. My boss was confused as to why i was LOL while working. i am supprised to see no Eirc Esch (Butterbean) Oh Shit moments

  265. Well... there goes breakfast... Says:

    …urp! THANKS A LOT!!! http://neilsnotes.com/index.php?page=13&catid=4&sku=ENGL-CD00260

    And Jack? Stop being a critical Jack-off you fucking, cunty, lame-o, loser, couch critic with crotch cooters! U Fuckin’ Dick!

  266. jack Says:

    you cant even see most of the pictures. this is fucking poor.

  267. mistersaurus rex Says:

    oh my god, *brunch ghost.* also, 15 space beers.

    I laughed pretty much the whole time, but the idea of a good punch to the vagina not doing anything significant in the realm of pain made me cry a single tear of womanly anguish. Vagina punches hurt. :(

  268. 6oober Says:

    much awesomeness

  269. zak Says:

    The beginning of the end of my coach’s last fight was a solid knee to his opponent’s liver. After the fight, he kept claiming my coach kicked him in the nuts, but after reviewing the fight from multiple angles, he finally conceded. He then told my coach that it was as if he had balls all over his body, and my coach hit him in all of them at the same time.

    It’s good to see you’ve finally found a place to write the MMA article I know you’ve been dying to submit, Sean.

  272. I-Rod Says:

    I’m dissapointed that there wasn’t a full article dedicated to Don Frye’s mustache

  273. Devlin Says:

    One of the funniest articles I’ve read. The one problem with this is I’ve been trying to convince other people that MMA is a serious sport (and not, repeat NOT just brawling). This article destroyed all my hard work in one fell “oh shit!” moment.

    That UFC 2 was a joke. So funny to see that dude who clearly had no idea what he was in for, lie back and kick from the floor, like my sister always did.

    As someone who knows nothing about MMA I can safely say this article had me suppressing the lulz at work big time. Good job.

  278. Gemineye870530 Says:

    Jeff do you care to elaborate?

  279. Gemineye870530 Says:

    You should have mentioned that Nogueira weighs 250+. That’s insane!

  280. Nobody Says:

    the fight with Fred Ettish is almost sad to watch. It’s like watching the little nerdy kid that claims to know karate going against the school bully and getting his ass handed to him. I think in the first 10 sec of the fight Ettish’s brain was thinking, “ShitshitshitshitshitshitSHIT!!!”

  281. Thunder Says:

    Good stuff. I was surprised the elusive double-KO didn’t make the cut!

  282. Ben Says:

    This was hilarious, a great way to start off my day. Thank you SeanBaby

  283. Kisengue Says:

    Was? No double knockout refereed by happy-dancing Shonie Carter?

  284. Jeff Says:

    I must say, these are terrible “Oh Shit” choices.

    I don’t even watch the UFC, Pride or other fighting leagues regularly and I can still think of and remember tons of better “Oh Shit” moments. I think a little more research was needed.

    Keep trying Seanbaby, Keep trying…

  285. Emwurst Says:

    “Randleman brought Fedor up in a perfect arc, jumped off his feet, and trebuchet’ed the weight of both of them directly on the point of Fedor’s head. It was like he was trying to make dinosaurs extinct again. When wheelchair salesmen watch it, their eyeballs turn to dollar signs.”

    1. You turned “trebuchet” into a verb.

    2. You rule.

  286. Fester Says:

    “Your arms and legs stop working and you see an Indian with an extra horse beckoning you into the woods.”

    Awesome line. And that punch also broke at least one of Smith’s ribs.

  287. jalfa Says:

    Brilliant!

  288. Gemineye870530 Says:
