Ballad of a Modern Gunfight: Rafael Fiziev vs Bobby Green

- Опубликовано: 14 ноя 2022
- Rafael "Ataman" Fiziev vs. Bobby "King" Green at UFC 265 is one of my favorite fights of all time. This bout had everything: the storyline (the seasoned vet taking on the young up-and-comer), the action, the technical skills on display, unorthodox styles, trash talk, a near-comeback, and the respect between two warriors at the end of it all.

Fiziev's primary style is Muay Thai and his favorite weapons are:
Lightning fast switch kick.
Strong combos with all 8 limbs.
KO Power in his hands and feet.
Defensively, Fiziev has insane head movement and core dexterity.
Green is primarily a boxer and his favorite weapons are:
Long, fast straight punches (especially his jab).
The ability to fight from both stances.
An underrated clinch game.
Defensively, Green uses an unorthodox but effective Philly Shell / shoulder roll, combined with nice footwork.
There are many lessons we can take from this fight but two standouts are:
1) If you can't hit the head, target the body.
2) If you can't match the skill, fight the ego.
Do you agree this is one of the best MMA fights of all time? Let me know what other fighters or classic fights you want to see technique breakdowns for on this channel.

Green vs Fiziev highlights
To this day its my favorite video on youtube
the most underrated war noone speaks of. green and Fiziev are monsters.
Absolutely 💯
i feel like this video highlights how artful fighting can be... what a complicated, beautiful game to play
It was like an intoxicating dance
The skill level amongst the 155ers is crazy. Some of these dudes move as smoothly as professional dancers in addition to throwing nasty punches and kicks.
I love Green's style, but was expecting Fiziev would make light work of him. Ended up thinking Green might've deserved the decision. Great fight.
Yeah I thought green won but it might’ve been I was expecting fiziev to finish
Style makes fights
Fiziev is the best stylistic matchup for green in the top 10 in 155 class
yeah i think it could have gone either way. some of those head shots from Fiziev that looked like they landed in real time you can see Green made him just barely miss but can only see that depending on camera angle and sometimes only in slo mo.
In a game of inches, this fight could have gone either way but i remember thinking in real time that Fiziev won a close fight and that his body shots and leg kicks were a big part of why. Both guys have great head movement
Gaethje is gonna show him who’s daddy
Agree 100% with everything, I'd pay to watch them fight each other every Saturday night for the rest of my life!! Thought Bobby was going to get the nod but no problem with the decision..
the fact that green went toe to toe with that guy.
And arguably beat him.
Bobby is a Beast! Always

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>AND WON!!!
Love me some king Bobby Green. Gotta appreciate him while he's here
The sound of Fiziev's body kicks made Bisping and Felder - two paragons of toughness - groan in pain.
His kicks aren’t* anything out of the ordinary
The pacing, the editing and the music choice was perfect. Good job man for real !!!!
Appreciate it bro
bobby's defense was so on point that fight. he's always popping in and out of the pocket, sometimes sitting in it, but he's so damn slick and slippery. almost always rolling with the shots i bet like 5 head strikes landed clean that fight, so fiziev adjusted to the body/legs.
Fiziev landed enough Greens chin was just very impressive bc the power difference was noticeable. Honestly though I feel like Fiziev needs to utilize the teep and his jab more especially in that fight those 2 things I think would’ve made a difference against the way Bobby fights. Bobby’s good at slipping guys who wanna throw power at him and Fiziev is kinda the best at that he’s always throwing big left hooks elbows and round kicks. Usually he only has to land a couple times to end it but fucking Bobby was able to eat the clean shots and make everything else not clean.
Great video. Awesome editing, please make more of these.
I love your video style you quickly became one of my favorite mma channels
Never heard of em, just had one of the vids in the subfeed off another, and in one vid, plus a peruse of the library, and I'm really excited.
This is the channel I've been looking for! Hits the mark between entertainment, and film study, plus i could chill to the tunage all day.
No disrespect to the others, there's a cpl in the same tier, but sootho, in my esteem, jumped straight to that vaulted peak, and layed their own claim to mountain king
love how the video was put together, well done on this
Damn the quality of the editing is so good, pace music and info on the fighters 🔥🔥
Bro your videos are amazing. I love the soundtracks for these two fighters. I love that you picked this fight. Bobby Green is such an amazing boxing talent its ridiculous. He is one of the few guys in MMA that is dangerous in southpaw and orthodox. He has also mastered the shoulder roll and hands down style. Fiziev is also dope too and probably a future champ. Keep up the high quality work!
Thank you sir 🙏🏼
Bobby still won in my mind
Nobody cares your opinion
It's your mind
Green won this fight

Great video, editing and music on point. Incredible fight, Bobby Green is badass, Fiziev is a warrior.
This is a great video my friend
Really awesome channel! Hope to see more in the future!
Thanks brother
This was an amazing fight!🥊
Great concept.
Editing
Music
In between tweets u nailed it broo
Amazing format . Top tier content
Much love bro
Greens hands being so low helps with his striking massively
Won't work for everyone, but definitely works for him
But its a double edged knife, look at the Drew Dober fight, he was putting a clinic on his face until Dober sparked him out cold
So glad i got to see this fight live
I'm jealous
Easily one of my favorite fights hands down
Awesome video👌
just found your channel after the archetypes video, shit rips ty for the content
Please do a video on Gaethje v. Fiziev. I just found your channel and love your content so far.
Awesome vid bro 🔥👌
Thank you brother 🙏🏼
Magic fight!
Bobby will never be the champion but he sure showed up against a bloke who looks like a future champion and proved he deserves to be in the top 12
Never say never.
Right look at Sean Strickland. Who would have thought.@@noir8428
the way Fiziev throws those combos to body then head are so awesome.
He knocked out damn good Moicana and legend RDA that way.
Fiziev is a problem for LW division
This video is art
Good fights and good music nice job
Great title and music choice, best one yet.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Bobby will go down like Diaz bros - no one will remember the losses, but we will all remember he showed up to be great and moved with a slickness
Very entertaining, nice mood music
Nice breakdown. Fiziev flow is clean
Great videos man appreciate all the work! can you tell me what the instrumental is when the Kings intro starts?
Havoc Softener - Never Enough
As a striking fan, the Riddell fight was amazing.
I’m pretty sure I started watching the fight after this and joe was talking about how good this fight was
The thing about the sport of boxing is that unlike any other sport, you end up paying for your mistakes in direct pain
Love this comment. Harsh but true.
Excelente strinker q buen boxeo felicitaciones Green desde peru q tipo tan duro
Imo this is a top 10 if not top 5 3 round fight of the last 5 years now
I still think Bobby won that fight but they both looked great.
Kudos to both men for a great, entertaining fight. Say what you will about the dominance of grappling in this sport- the fights are dull. Nothing beats watching high level striking
Nice video! What s the music in the first part?
I'll add the music credits to the description right now. It's Neroche - Dying Sun
great video met fiziev at tiger muay thai what an monster but technically proficient
I like the music, has a modern skyrim feel. Listening to the bard as I drink some skooma
That wasn't a fight, that was.a dance!
God i loved this fight!
I heard someone say something about the appreciation of fighters is different in the east. The way Japan will hold up fighters as their own pride, win or lose, endlessly respectful, and greatfull, for a good fight!
I prefer that, but with greater understanding, and i truly have thought for a while, America is moving towards this.
Soo many of my favorite fights left me unsure who won, as i don't often care for what decision is adjudicated, or ended definitively, but i left thinking it could've gone for either, excepting one moment.
Jiri vs Glover would be a recency bias favored example.
Fiziev vs Green... man, if you could give them clone bodies to pilot, I'd watch them fight to the death every sunday, then a livestream of them having drinks, and talking fights.
True that. That's why I didn't include the winner of the fight in the video. It was about the battle not the outcome
I feel that it is true that western fight fans tend to focus on the wins, but there are fighting styles and personalities that are embraced regardless. A few come to mind: Both Diaz brothers, Haloway, Gathje, Zombie, and for me Yair. I don't care if they win, I love to see them fight.
By the way, this is a great video. The way you gave a few simple bullets of strengths, with great examples, really set up how to watch and appreciate this matchup of skills.
Two man’s egos have a great time in fluid motion haha
Bobby Green would be a Top 10 FW. Just happens to fight in the most stacked division on the planet.
Prolly could never make weight tho
Two warriors
The three Asians with the best chance of winning the UFC title
1. Shavkat
2. Da un jung
3. Song Yadong
4.Fiziez
Very nice video ，i like
One of the best strikers in the UFC right now.
Staying busy Coach
Yes sir.
Bobby Green vs Nate Diaz would be a classic !!!
Anyone know the song in this?
What is the name of the song
Name of the 2nd song plz❤
I need to see a fight between Brad Riddell and Bobby Green
Damn I really want to see Fiziev go up against Poirier. Two of my favourite lightweight fighters! I think Poirier wins that fight though. Fiziev vs Gaethje would be really fun aswell.
Might've been able to finish him in round 4. God damned banger.
Bobby green vs micheal Johnson is the fight to make
Green is a coach nightmare 😳 he just needs to focus fighting then show boating pshhh he's actually really good at punch combination and using his reach and great head movement
I had Green winning that tbh
He was until that
👍👏
Rafael is the monster🔥🔥🔥🔥
Green vs paddy
I think green would love that fight and probably win
I dont understand how Gaethje won
Im convinced hes just physically more durable and faster than normal ppl
Is it just me or is that green and holland are sorta the same person ? Lol
Bobby Green was EXTREMELY LUCKY he wanst Knocked Out...COLD !! some of the striking Fiziev landed flat on his Face would be Bye Bye on 9 out of 10 fights....
Fiziev GOAT ❤️
How yall doing today
Good everyday
Fiziev's Only Human after all =)
i think fiziev will be champ one day just unfortunate he seems to suffer from eye cuts thats how gaethje pulled ahead last fight
Has anyone incorporated the shoulder roll into MMA better than Bobby Greene
Sean Strickland
@@kylesmith4426 good shout
fucking brutal!!!
Felt like I was watching an anime
bobby green vs gaethje
Bobby won that...
Aye Bobby green really him he should have kickboxed
Bobby Green moves like Mayweather
I think Bobby should win.
I love Bobby but Fiziev definitely won
A lot of the shots the hit Bobby are rolled and missed. Much like Strickland it looks like clean shots to the judges but much of the impact was taken off
I can see the argument either way. Definitely felt Fiziev was winning the fight during round 1 and 2 but felt like Bobby won after the fight was over
The slow mo's showed the opposite. Bobby was playing off legitimate punches as if they never landed. The one that had him squirming on the octagon left a Jorge Masvidal-esque water silhouette when it landed in slow motion, but it's really hard to see in real time.
