13 freakin' times in his career!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen every one of them and most were very brutal. It is not even a YEAR since Francis viciously KO'd him and he already has had two fights: one where he got tko'd and this win against the newbee Russian.

How does he even form sentences at this point?!?!?!?!?!

Is there any other fighter who continues/continued to fight at this pace and this level and be successful after SO MANY horrible knockouts?!?!?!?!?!

EDIT: Starting a Running List of High KO Fighters
  • Gary Goodridge = 24 (10 mma and 14 kickboxing)
  • Reem = 16 (13 mma and 3 kickboxing)
  • Melvin Manhoef = 13 (5 mma and 8 kickboxing)
  • Bigfoot = 11 (10 mma and 1 kickboxing) his TKO against Eric Pele was debatable...
  • Andrei Arlovski = 11 (all mma)
  • Mirko CroCop = 9 (5 mma and 4 kickboxing)

He's one of the only fighters that was noticeably affected by USADA but still continued to excel.

Great fighter but he's always had a shit chin.

I have always said that Alistair Overeem wearing a motorcycle helmet is the GOAT.

I wonder what Reem will look like in ten years when he is Chuck's age? Chuck was already punch drunk at this point in his career and was ko'd far less. Maybe's Alistair's weak chin has reduced the damage he has taken......?

i have been amazed and heavily concerned for years. we have seen him brush off multiple KOs, were he was left sleeping, as no big deal. i would be shitting myself, SHITTING MYSELF, if i had taken half the damage he has.

is that counting his knock out losses in kickboxing?
3 more there, so 16 total! some brains can take it. liddell also partied heavy for years. thought it would be more but melvin manhoef has 11 ko/tko losses.

The substances Chuck abused probably didn't help him any. I say this out of respect, he's an old school favorite. But it's reality

His chin certainly has fucked him at times. They call that the 'Reverse Urijah Faber'.

He had to stop training outside when it was windy.

A 30 mph gust hitting that chin is just too risky during fight camp

I don't know. Being on a lot of drugs in the past (i.e. they aren't in your system when you are in the cage) shouldn't make you look as uncoordinated and unsteady on your feet as a toddler...........................

Hmmm that's pretty interesting, hit him flush on the chin good, system shut down fight is over less damage than someone that can take 10, 20 or even 30 punches before the system shutdown is triggered

Yeah I never thought of that before and then it just hit me. Maybe having a rock chin is a bad thing in the long run......?

We'll see what Reem looks like in 20 years...
