UnderGround Forum >> Couture Responds to Seagal NHB Challenge

OSBtro11 - He's one of those rare , real life trolls of life. It's hilarious

Fenixstriker -

Shroom - In a street fight, Randy picks Seagull up and slams him on concrete and fight's over.

Even amateur HW fighters could tool Seagull

More likely Master Seagal would see the situation, and walk away the better man, following the laws of the land.

I don't think he is a troll though.
I think he genuinely believes he would stand a chance at beating Randy despite having watched MMA.

I actually think Randy could win with one hand tied to his waist.

akaioni - Randy will do fine as long as he doesn't attack with the following:

1. Yokomenuchi
2. Shomenuchi
3. Maegeari
4. Munetsuki
5. Katatedori
6. Ryotedori
7. Kosadori

Seagal by deadly stuff.

Submissable -  It's easy to pick out the trolls on subjects like these. You're on a MMA discussion board and you act like UFC 1-4 didn't happen. Seagul has no chance other than a freak accident to Couture whether it's NHB or MMA.

I actually think he could win with both hands tied to his waist.

In fact, I actually think Randy could win with only one arm and no legs free. SS would gas in 30 seconds just trying to hold him still. SS would not be able to hold a bound Randy still long enough to gouge his eyes.

I bet Randy, with both legs and one arm tied to his waist, would GnP SS to death.

Rear Naked Chode - Ppv numbers through the roof.

That. It would be Brock Lesnar numbers...

MTH - 

Fenixstriker - The point isnt about the real world application ( of which I have much experience having bounced for 12 years), its about the methods both men have trained.

If I train in a particular fashion for most of my career, when I am thrust into unfamiliarity I will likely flounder.

Look at many of the most dominant champions of Pride. They struggled to adapt to the Octagon, based on some variations in the rules between organizations.

You think that the same challenges wont be faced when someone who has never had an opponent strike for his eyes or groin, or fish hook them will react the same when they've traine otherwise for thousands of hours?


 

 

 

 

 

 

Again, it a battle among rough equals, those kinds of considerations could matter.  The Pride fighters, for example.

But how many of Seagal's "opponents" have attacked his eyes and groin?  How many eyes has he "ripped out" and testicles has he crushed?  How many "fish hooks" has Seagal actually done?  Now . . . how many times has Couture actually slammed somebody?  Exactly. 

The methods of training for Couture involve thousands fo hours of really moving people who are really good and who really don't want to be moved.  Seagal has none of that background.  His eye poke/groin smash/fish hook training is all conducted on willing opponents while he "simulated" those "vicious" attacks. 

You're really suggesting that the most likely outcome when Seagal is clinched by Olympic level wrestler Couture, would be that Seagal would fall back on his years of PRETENDING to attack eye balls or groins and execute such a move for real?  While having his torso flattened against Couture and his base ripped out from under him?  That's ridiculous.

Couture's training is much, much closer to reality than Seagal's.  Randy would win however he liked, but the expected method would be he'd box his way in, clinch, slam, and submit or beat viciously.  That'd happen 10 out of 10 times.  And there'd be absolutely nothing Seagal would be able to do about it.

Haha "it could happen organically I suppose" nice choice of words Randy

actually, as someone who just scored in the 97th percentile of the GRE verbal section, I have no idea what the hell that means so I wouldn't call that a "nice choice of words". Just in case I was missing something I looked up organically on dictionary.com. The closest conceivable defintion that could make Randy's statement make any kind of sense is "organically"'s 7th most common meaning, "naturally", i.e. "it could happen naturally I suppose." This still doesn't make much sense, since Randy would have to take volitional action to actually arrange where to show up (and to show up) somewhere where there are no witnesses. Is Randy "dick-tucking" to Sensei Seagal's response to his challenge? If I'm missing something, someone please let me know.

40oztofreedom -  If Couture actually agreed, Seagal would've stalled and eventually pulled out. He knows all Randy would have to do is slam him down to throw his back out. Fight over.

Not sure Couture could even lift Seagull's fat ass.....

Picked up Tony Halme and Steven Graham no problem.

Took down most of the rest of the big guys too.

Randy is slightly older than when he "picked up" Halme and Graham. Plus, have you seen Seagull? He probably outweighs either of them at their prime. And with how low Steven's belly hangs, he has a low enough center of gravity, I'm not sure Randy could take him down, let alone slam him. With the hanging belly, Seagull is basically in a three point stance when in fighting stance.
