I'm so happy about this. I met Kevin Randleman after UFC 43. He was nice enough to give me one of his shirts and sign it for me. 17 Years Ago and I still have it. Sadly the signature faded. Will keep forever
Signatures may Fade but Memories won't
Man the signature might fade, the man might have passed away, but memories will always be there. True legend
That was a beautiful epilogue at the end. Almost like a gift he left behind for everyone. To let us all know we're unbreakable. That's beautiful.
Type” unbreakable Kevin randleman” in search bar to hear his old entrance song about being unbreakable
Amen to that!
Randleman It's The Hall Of Fame In That's
Yeah I loved the end of the clip to
🙏🙏🙏
Fun fact before his passing randleman actually took a day every month dedicated to contacting his fans, texting, phone calls, emails the guy really was an incredibly good person. Its unfortunate staph infections had to plague his health rip Kevin Randleman a legend of the sport
absolute legend
Rip the monstet
I used to message fighters all the time when I was a kid on Twitter over 10 years ago lol, Kevin was the only one who replied back and even followed me, RIP MONSTER ❤
Anyone else shed a tear during Coleman's speech & the ensuing epilogue? Congrats to The Monster for finally making it into the UFC HoF!! This was a great video about Kevin! UFC out-did themselves here.
I misted up a bit, getting so emotional as i age haha
I still get choked up every time I'm reminded that this brother have gone home! Thank you Kevin you sure deserve to be in the Hall of Fame!
R.I.P Kevin
Way overdue, RIP one of the best and most entertaining of all time.
We miss you everyday Kevin, you were a great fighter and an even greater man
Mark and Kevin beautiful relationship.
I remember the first time I saw him in the ring. He was unmistakable. Huge beast of a man with a body built like a greek god and the power to match
Can't forget the blonde hair. He looked like a Super Sayian
I'm from Columbus, Ohio and had the distinct pleasure of running into KR on several occasions. We attended OSU at the same time, but I didn't meet him until he was an elite Pride fighter.
Here I was, a nobody. And he remembered me between meetings. A more humble man, you aren't going to find.
My hero my idol I grow up watching him Kevin randleman is my favorite fighter of all time I miss him so much now he I'm UFC hall of fame Kevin randleman I miss you man I'm in TEARS now you in UFC hall fame
This one gets me Everytime ... R.I.P. brotha
I remember always playing as randleman in ufc undisputed 3 even going through a career mode as him. But the German suplex was a MUST to whoever I faced especially in pride. RIP man 44 is still wayyyy to young.
That's what happens when you stress the fuck out of your heart with roids unfortunately
Btw im not being a hater it's well documented he died from PED abuse
you will always live in our memory. from Russia with love.RIP

I’m from Sandusky Ohio! RIP to you my friend! You definitely deserve to be in the HOF🙏🏾❤️👊🏾
So happy too see this!
Everyone loved him. Not one soul that has walked this earth had one bad thing to say about him. A true legend of the sport and a stellar human being, he absolutely belongs in the HOF.
RIP champ, I liked how man handled bigger guys like there were nothing. Did not even know he died till now.
R.I.P Kev, we'll never forget your Fedor slam.
You didn’t fight the monster , you had to survive the monster!!! Rest Easy champ
I remember sneaking into my dads closet to find all his UFC and PRIDE CDs and always watching Kevin Randleman’s slam on Fedor.... One of the best slams ever in MMA history. RIP Kevin R.
Rest In Peace Randleman, you're a legend !
Thanks for the memories, Kevin. Rest In Paradise, King!
About F'kn Time ! I've been waiting 4 this
Love this clip ❤️,Randleman is an MMA legend. Get crazy emotions towards the end 😥
Kevin randleman true ufc legend R.I.P I'll never forget Kevin randleman
This dude was a fucking animal in the ring/cage his champion attitude and warrior heart and positive was the only thing more legendary than his fighting
WOW I NEVER KNEW HE PASSED AWAY! WOW! WELL FUCKING DESERVED RANDELMAN!
A true mma Kevin randleman R.I.P
This man basically fought the best fighters of the world since his debut
He should have been in the Hall of Fame
True legend RIP
Anytime I want to shed a few manly tears, I come to this video.
Gonna bust out my Dreamcast and win a tournament with this guy for old time sake.
The Mike Tyson of UFC.
What a great human. Bad ass video
Very cool and beautifully made
Cara uma lenda sem duvida nenhuma saudades do monstro
Hall of fame vc e uma lenda obrigado por tudo
imagine getting into the cage with this man and thinking, yeah, I'ma win! Holy smokes!
I just found out he died.
man loved watching his fights
that fedor slam
nuts.
Most jacked MMA fighter of all time, built like a tank... Damn scary... 😅
As far as pure athleticism goes,no wrestler compares no even close.Feel for his children....
Mi tío
R.I.P. K.R. 😔🙏
I watched his fight against Cro Cop last month, and he was really explosive when he KO'd the guy.
he certainly deserved to be in the hall of fame ... UFC please introduce Marco Ruas
Damn that ending really hurt
Rip Kevin Randleman
The Mike Tyson of MMA.
The KO of Crocop is still the biggest upset in MMA for me.
RIP Legend
I didn’t know him but i’m so sad now !!
Randleman can jump so high
But for YOU!! YOU!! YOU YOU!!
So we got
Gsp
Jones vs Alexander
Randleman
I hope we get the biggest arms from west linn Oregon next
0:21 - Every time someone says an athlete is a "genetic freak" it means they were on loads of gear. Still a fan of Kevin Randleman though, but let's be honest about the early years of the UFC and Pride, lol, the testing wasn't that efficient or there was no testing at all. Still an MMA legend, RIP.
He deserve it. RIP. And Anderson Silva ? When?
Damn 🙏🏿
"I'm human.. But FOR YOU! YOU, YOU AND YOU!! I'LL GO TO HELL AND BACK!!"
RIP to "The Monster"
Fedor and CroCop should go in the fight wing
The Fedor slam was like nothing we’ve ever seen. That slam could have easily killed or paralyzed Fedor.
Fedor took it like it was nothing to too. Fedor was a cyborg in his prime.
Fedor is the GOAT for a reason.
Hamza Khaliq yeah his conditioning was very good. Look at the angle his neck was bent at on impact. Truly miraculous he survived that and went on to win that fight.
@@crydoesstuff9155 Silva 8a the goat
@@crydoesstuff9155 he never fought jon jones or cejudo
The Monster in the cage. But a gentleman out of it. RIP big guy
@Legend of Awww Sheeet err yes
@@gti5700 ,lmao
Loren Kirk what is funny ? Stank bitch
I remember watching him as a kid and thinking ohh this dude is such a beast, he must be a terrifying human being and probably being unpleasant to be around for normal people. Then I heard him talking during an interview and just being incredibly shocked.
I felt that when Coleman was breaking up on stage.
Especially the fact that coleman isnt one for crying...
Me too buddy
I had the immense luck of getting into MMA in the early 2000s, and for some reason Mark Coleman & Kevin Randleman's friendship is one of the little things I loved the most about that sport; I know it's not very important, but we all have these little things/details in our passions that, for some reason, resonate more with us than others.
I would always be extra happy when one of them cornered the other, "Hammer House" forever \o/ even when they took Wes Sims under their wing, "The Project" was an interesting experience; watching the 2 of them trying to do everything they can for this dude that they randomly met backstage at a PRIDE event, they were amazed at his size/frame and when he told them that he wanted to be a pro-wrestler, they offered him to try MMA first.
I know Wes Sims, even if he is never in a boring fight, didn't live up to the high expectations that a lot of people had for him... but he did his best; always managed to make fights entertaining... and that was always nice to see, even long after it was clear that Wes wouldn't become a world beater, than they kept getting him small fights in more modest events, and traveled long distances to always be in his corner;
I realize that it kinda is a weird thing to keep up with, but that was one of the reasons that I kept checking out lots of these Ohio based promotions that would get "A whole Show" to headline their events.
They never gave up on the dude and that made me an even bigger fan of them."The 3 Amigos" like it was said in that fun MMAWeekly interview.
And when Mark Coleman needed a new hip, and Wes Sims launched a GoFundMe without telling Mark, who didn't want to ask people for charity, that was finally a way for all of us to give something back
And 50.000$ were raised, that was a good time to be a fan. Mark Hunt gave 5K just by himself, great guy
Sadly the medical expenses combined for the surgery added up to 100.00$
(This messed up healthcare system is one of the biggest reasons that I left the USA to go live in France. I don't want my family to have to worry about money if they ever get sick/injured)
Shed a tear to this one ufc.
Me too shit was heavy
real talk...
Me too, when i saw mark coleman crying for his best friend i remember when both guys founded HammerHouse two of the best wrestlers in mma during his pass in Pride fc in japan both fighting everyone the best of the best, Fedor, Mirko, Sakuraba and many others, gone but never forgotten Monster Randleman :,(
Alright I’ll admit that I did too. And GSP.
i shed a fart
I'm 48 years old. I saw UFC, Pride and Kevin Randleman from the get go. RIP champ, you deserve this honor!
You are so fucking old man you still alive?
@@marcoscc8870 TF is wrong with you man
@@Maximum950 ?????
Lucky
????? He’s a child wouldn’t say shit to his face 🤣
That Fedor suplex is one of the greatest clip in mma, seriously crazy. RIP.
That suplex and the Rampage powerbomb is a constant reminder that wrestling can kill you if done right. lol
@Bach Wagner yea I think that was the only one person on earth that could have survived that.... not just win.
@@eskanda3434 I know, it's just that there's are lots of highlight reel knockouts, rampage slams too and flying knees but I guess it's not often you'll see a suplex like this, he went airborne with it.
He earned his place
100%
i don't remember seeing this man in the ufc
William Bradford Bishop then you obviously didn't watch UFC in the early days
@@Charlton2010 how early are we talking? cause i been watching since matt hughs faught carlos newton
@@williambishop4737 he was the ufc champ before 2000s
@@aeri_9132 he def aint no hall of famer for ufc mayb pride or something... even rashard evans hall of the fame what the hell is going on
KNOCKED OUT CRO CROP IN HIS PRIME!!!! AND ALMOST ENDED FEDORS LIFE WITH THAT SLAM!!! LEGEND!!!
with Usada at Pride, Kevin would have killed (or paralysed) Fedor.
Rip monster
Nicollas Madeira With USADA at Pride, Randleman couldn't have carried Fedor and slammed him like that.
With USADA at Pride, Randleman would have never been able to fight because he would have tested positive each time.
With USADA at Pride...
@Terrence Anton just facts guys... just facts.
@@nicollasmadeira9328 And we just gave you facts on how stupid you sound.
@@MegaZack61 i think that is not stupid. Making that supllex with the proper technique is possible, without any supplement. Survive as if nothing had happened is really impossible. But its ok buddy. Nothing against the red king. Have a great week!
Legend. We Japanese loved him during his time in Pride. He is truly missed. A real gentleman outside the ring.
One of the very few men that gave Bas Rutten a run for his money. Rest In Peace Kevin. Rest in Fame now Mr. Randleman.
I thought he won that fight tbh.
he got robbed agaisnt bas rutten won every round and the biased judges gave it to bas rutten. the judges have been rotten since day 1
Mazdak Amirani exactly!!!!
Watched that fight today: judges suck. Watched the fights today: judges STILL suck.
Paul Blackman if you believe that I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sake you.
If testosterone were a person it would look like Kevin Randleman.
Hahahahahaha
Hahahaha def top comment
Ozymandias both natural and synthetic
Lol
0:43 HE LITERALLY ALMOST KNOCKED THE FENCE OVER, WHAT A BEAST.
Exactly that was shocking
He did steroids but that was impressive.
@@nikerowan3517 everyone was juiced to the gills back then so it’s not that big a deal imo
@@nikerowan3517 anyone not juicing back then was pretty much asking for a ambulance ride
@@nikerowan3517 so did everyone else back then, but how many other guys almost knocked the cage down??
He was my wrestling coach for 5 years I love him and miss him so much. I’m so proud of him and wish I could of said goodbye
You're lucky man, he was my idol, just like Fedor or young Rampage, during the childhood and high school. If it makes you feel better and you're telling the truth, your coach inspired me to try martial arts which helped me to get rid of bullies when I was a kid.
Very lucky dude
I got chills watching this. Legend
One of the best wrestlers in MMA history. He could take down anyone.
@Godspeed He said takedown, as in being able to take down his opponent to the ground.
@Godspeed look he was one of the most loved fighters of the ufc he loved his fans and he's a great warrior. so how about you show some respect and don't ever say something like that that's not nice of you.
So casual and noob are not words stupid teenagers use since when let him have his opinion cAsUAl
@Godspeed Why is his record relevant to what I said?
@Lord Sakazuki So anyone who loses to Rampage is garbage?
Remember when he finished mirko nobody thought he could win and he did that.
Rip to a legend
"I`m just a human, like you, and you and you...."
I wish more people were down to earth like him.
Blessed are you - wherever you are.
HELP!!! Everybody at my school cyberbullies me because they say my videos are extremely BAD!!! Please help me, dear peter
@@AxxLAfriku haters are gonna hate, but put your blinders on, ignore the naysayers, focus on your passion and the real ones will recognize your game. Stay true to your voice and mute the rest. If they throw you off your game, use that to focus on what the crux of the critique is, if it's nonsense then it doesn't have any legs to stand on and you need not waste your energy/focus on foolishness.
Remember, usually when someone puts someone else down, it's because they feel small, weak, or have no real power so they try to use their words to feel big. Typically I feel sorry for bullies because they have no real teachers showing them a good example and they become mentally handicapped.
I hope this helps, knowledge is power.
Bad is subjective, study your favorites and learn what styles and techniques move you to create your story. To some bad is good! As in parody or satire.
@Zeek Banistor Steroid abusers are stereotypically short tempered and violent so yes, we do need steroid abusers to be more down to earth. We need less steroid abusers instead.
All the comments I’m seeing saying his record is shit it’s because he fought the BEST I mean Liddell,couture,fedor,cro cop and bas rutten and half of them came after his prime
Also a Lot of his losses came when he was out of his prime in his last fights
Cause they've not got a clue
saigonbond dude stfu and admit ur wrong and he’s a hall of Famer 🤟🏻
@saigonbond he has a better Record and more acomplishments than a hof like Maurice smith (who randleman beat), and you can't really call a former ufc Champion a journeyman (except for probably Dave menne), with how mma progressed he wouldn't do good in today's age, but back then in the 90s he was one of the best heavyweight fighters at the time, being a true Pioneer of the sport and Champion of the ufc during the dark ages beating legends such as bas rutten (they robbed him that fight), and an undefeated at the time predro rizzo, apart from being ufc champ, he won a vale tudo tournament in 1996, knocked out mirko crocop in his prime, and put a legendary slam on fedor during his pride fc run.
He also was 15-7 at the time he knocked out crocop, 16-6 if not counting the robbery they did in his fight with bas.
saigonbond it’s not abt the record it’s abt the person and he never ducked anyone he fought the best that’s more then what u can say abt current champions
“Everyone on this planet is unbreakable as long as you keep it here (In your mind) and here (In your heart” Kevin Randleman (UFC Hall of Famer and MMA Legend)
Damn bro I actually had tears coming down my face over this .
Well played UFC, Well played.
"Everyone on this planet is Unbreakable, so long as u keep it here(head) and in here(heart)"
I love Keven randleman he was so respectful to others fighters even in defeat just like when he kept winning in the UFC and said it's going to take another wrestler to beat him then him and Randy Couture fault and Randy won BUT Kevin randleman still put the belt around Randy's waste to show true respect.
Jsyk it's waist. Waste means garbage.
I just got a mental image of a belt rapped around a large pile of shit... Randy's shit😅. No but the sentiment still stands.
This shocked me because I thought Randleman was already in the Hall of Fame.
I will never forget what he did to Fedor. RIP
DONT FORGET SLAM TOOO OF KEVIN !!! BEST SLAM OF IN FIGHT ON THE WORLD !!!!
What? Fedor won that.
prredo yes with key in hand no ko but takedown of kevin is incroyable !!!!!!!
@@prredo Did i say he lost the fight mate? This is about Kevin not about Fedor right now. Tens of people got it but a few didnt...its ok you will get there. 😂 All the best! 🤙
@@AlekDjRo but, what "he did to Fedor"? I got there, but it seems somebody else didn't
WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU KEVIN...
Damn, who cuttin dem onions right now? 😢 R.I.P.
I remember when he beat the shit out of Bas Ruten then lost by decision... Probably the biggest travesty of justice in UFC history.
@D core no no no. Bas even admited that he got lucky by the judges.
Some even say they got payed off...
@D core I dont kno about easy
Dude is like a guy from an Anime or movie, what a Legend
Настоящий боец, стальная пружина, вечная память Кевин!
One word: Deserve!
