This is reupload of my older video about the profoundly weird and stupid sport of XARM. Check out my twitter and patreon / beigefrequency / beigefrequency
Just a heads up guys, I am currently editing part 4 of the Jon Jones series that will be coming out fairly soon. I've wanted to makes some changes to this video and reupload it for a while though. It's just a minor diversion, and part 4 of His Own Worst Enemy is on the way in the near future.
@@RedmondBarryIIpart 5 will probably depend on if Jon retires after the stipe fight, if he does then there isn't really any point making a part 5 (assuming that part 4 takes us to the present day and includes the gane fight)
Xarm sounds like one of those things that dude bros in college would've absolutely loved, and im willing to bet theres a table in the corner of some frathouse somewhere with chains under it just for this purpose
There's only two constants in internet lore/retrospectives: content lost during the Machinima collapse and Keemstar somehow being involved as the promoter for some kind of beef/grudge match.
Love all your work, man. Thanks for putting in so much effort and keeping it nuanced and interesting! I wonder if there's a chance of getting a review of Segura's Sledgehammer special, and how strangely unfunny it turned out to be? I think one of your standup-focused episodes could really do it justice. Anyway, thanks again 🥰
As always, another banger from Beige Frequency…well done, my friend. As far as the content, X-ARM is a seriously obscure, but endlessly fascinating, combat sports hidden gem. Your research and breakdown of this utter madness is, per your usual, beyond reproach. That being said…wtf were they thinking?! What an absolute shitshow.
I remember the first time when I laughed at XARM. I think I nearly had a heart attack from the guy leaning over while he was being punched. I wish there was more footage cause it makes for hilarious fun.
Feels like we're reliving XARM with Dana White's Power Slap organization... I never thought we'd see something as stupid as XARM again but here we are.
Your skunk ape video is my fav of yours even though a lot of them are good, it actually freaked me out. Maybe do one about aliens? maybe that's too on the nose.
Okay, since no one else is gonna say it I will. That Jennifer Lee gal has a pretty face. All the other critiques you said about her maybe true. But gotta give her that.
I like idea of that long and narrow ring for a fight sport. Basically, you can move to the other fighter, away from the other fighter, but things would get tricky if you have to go AROUND the other guy. I think that could work without being as silly as literally tying the fighters together.
Here again to watch this vid not just to laugh but to get the numbers back up to support a vid that needs far more visibility of thise XARM shit in Current Day.
Here I am, once again, asking if this is the kind of content that this channel has switched to primarily. Are the videos about comedy done now? Are the videos about the O&A crowd/comedians no longer being put out? Should I keep waiting to see if the content I subscribed for makes a return? Or should I just bite the bullet and clean up my home page so I can stop seeing these fighting/ufc type videos that I have *NO* interest in whatsoever?
if xArm put headgear on the competitors perhaps that would look a bit better for most spectators? not sure how you could fix it, maybe sock'em boppers on the punching hand.
Modern MMA hasn't caught up to XARM yet...We haven't see some of these techniques yet. Headbutts to the legs will change the game ruclips.net/video/iuv6nazdVCU/видео.html
Aside from fathers in the Long Island area with troubled relationships to their teenage daughters, when is the last time someone has even given the slightest thought about Anthony Cumia?
I agree that XArm seems much more interesting than slap fighting. I have no interest in slap fighting at all. To take defense out of the equation is fucking dumb, especially given the way all sports are moving towards recognizing things like CTE and the safety of the athletes. Of course, Dana White is still mad he wasn't the guy that thought of Bum Fights and would run over homeless people and put it on Fight Pass if he thought it would make a buck. While I have little interest in XAarm upon just hearing the concept, there seems to be some creativity in the the format and the rules. These could have evolved over time. Maybe they could be chained but allowed freer movement so as allowed to circle the base. Maybe the arm wrestling aspect would have been moved away from and it could have evolved into physical challenges that had an element of combat (ex. American Gladiators, American Ninja Warrior). Look at how much MMA has evolved over the years time from the no holds barred mismatches with no weight classes. I bet Dana is still angry that he can't have Royce Gracie (even at his age now) against some 600 pound fatso in a PPV main event with the winner facing Conor McGregor.
This is such an idiotic idea for a professional combat sport, I’m wondering how they even found these arm wrestlers/mma fighters? This sport looks like something outta that movie Idiocracy 😂
You must have the lowest IQ on the planet 😂 Do you think it's a good documentary when you're talking about I don't know some 💩 sport and then you just go off on a tangent on some political leader ? I guess that's how he keeps geniuses like you to come back for more. 😂
Do a vid on power slap please beige, I think it's fucking hilarious and good TV, but the MMA community just wants to cry about it like a bunch of babies. Please watch season 1 and then the first power slap event to get the "lore" 😂

Keep up the great work beige we really appreciate you and your drawings 💚🫡
Ur not waiting for the Stipe fight, or will that be part 5?
@@RedmondBarryIIpart 5 will probably depend on if Jon retires after the stipe fight, if he does then there isn't really any point making a part 5 (assuming that part 4 takes us to the present day and includes the gane fight)
You're telling me there was a fighter named Jake Paul with the nickname "the snake"?
Wait until you hear about the man known only as Cabbage.
Between you and Napoleon Blownapart I cant think of 2 better MMA storytellers.
Beige always has a way of uploading when I’m at my most bored.
I got a cure for your boredom right here, pal.
💯
Some would say the boredest
Xarm sounds like one of those things that dude bros in college would've absolutely loved, and im willing to bet theres a table in the corner of some frathouse somewhere with chains under it just for this purpose
They already had that stuff, I suppose for reasons
Dawg posted a comment just to hand the assist for someone else to deliver the punchline. Legend.
The market for it is huge just like slap fighting.
its just the audience is bottom of the barrel
That ending shot of Art Davie makes him look like the dude whose job it is to denounce the US just before the beheading
This shit blew me away when i first heard of it from Napoleon Blownapart. The fact it was brought back on Machinima of all places is so funny to me
Machinima was the top place to be as a call of duty content creator/commentator. The glory days of mw2, blops, blops 2 on youtube.
@@mugshotmarley I know I was around back then
Art is definitely gonna give it another go. Unless he can get the North American rights to phonebooth MMA, that is. Or buckled-in a Miata MMA.
“Buckled in a Miata.” Really got me
BRB buying those domains

You make great content. Thanks so much for another video!
Art Davie demanded "Ass to Ass" in Requiem for a Dream
Real talk: why did nobody ever just go for a wristlock in Xarm

XARM is still way better than Power Slap.
I would say they’re both same level of silliness
I wanna see a mma match between a XARMer and a Power Slaper
Like a kumite of retardation
I remember the first time when I laughed at XARM. I think I nearly had a heart attack from the guy leaning over while he was being punched. I wish there was more footage cause it makes for hilarious fun.
I love your channel looking forward to next video
I have been waiting for this!!!! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Feels like we're reliving XARM with Dana White's Power Slap organization... I never thought we'd see something as stupid as XARM again but here we are.
Same shit, the difference is in the marketing. Art Davie should have hit his wife to promote XArm, but he had too much class.
No, this is somehow still more retarded than Power Slap.
Agreed
Beige top tier content as always.
Great work. As always.
I thought I was going senile when I saw this in my feed. Time to watch it again
we miss you 🥲 thank you for all your videos
How have I never heard of xarm before today? This has to be in the top 10 dumbest sports.
Your skunk ape video is my fav of yours even though a lot of them are good, it actually freaked me out. Maybe do one about aliens? maybe that's too on the nose.
Half a dozen of my favorite channels have uploaded in the past 15 minutes. Watching Beige first.
"Mr. Tomatohead" hahaha.
ayyy missed ur vids dude
Beige frequency I love you so much
Certified Beige classic.
Okay, since no one else is gonna say it I will. That Jennifer Lee gal has a pretty face. All the other critiques you said about her maybe true. But gotta give her that.
It did exist!? I thought my memory of this was just a fever dream.
You know it’s gonna be good when the executive producers are named Trauma Hound and Derpatronous.
Many people were XARMed in the making of this video
I fucking love this channel!
Really want more content.. what else do you do.. I used to love your podcast editor and chief …😊
"Fastest way to turn a human brain into dog food"
God this goes so fucking hard please
Are you gonna make a video about the recent drama involving quinton reviews?
This was really interesting.
a strap on that's 18 inches long? Art Davie sure knows what MMA fans want..
So which was worse? The sport X-Arm or the anime Ex-Arm?
I like idea of that long and narrow ring for a fight sport. Basically, you can move to the other fighter, away from the other fighter, but things would get tricky if you have to go AROUND the other guy. I think that could work without being as silly as literally tying the fighters together.
5:37 the referee? "Is he a star trek character?"
13:39 😂 that is out of pocket
I agree. Bridles are stupid, so it's good to see more unbridled videos showcasing this fact to a wider audience.
#AntiBridle
Lol they thought “technology” was gonna make the core idea less shit?
Better than slap fighting.
Here again to watch this vid not just to laugh but to get the numbers back up to support a vid that needs far more visibility of thise XARM shit in Current Day.
It was supposed to be short clips that you can watch on a phone. That's kind of ahead of it's time actually. Maybe nit as dumb as it sounds.
Here I am, once again, asking if this is the kind of content that this channel has switched to primarily.
Are the videos about comedy done now?

Remember the slapping contest too? Talk about what seems like a flash in the cultural pan
Edit: oh snap, he mentions it at the end.
15:30 I actually like the team fights. I think we should try a tag team mma format.
This is elite
Dan Quinn sighting
Shoutout to the old Rogan Board
Do a video about power slap
Still more of a chance at defense than power slap
Suprised you showed a pic of Art without a stupid hat. I thought that was like seeing 2 chainz without glasses , you don’t.
if xArm put headgear on the competitors perhaps that would look a bit better for most spectators? not sure how you could fix it, maybe sock'em boppers on the punching hand.
.I never knew this existed .This is insane ! 😅

Id like to see tag team MMA. I think it could work.
This is SLAP before 👋
The great-grandfather of power slap😂😂😂😂😂
13:33 thanks man some pepsi came from my nose
moar liek M/M Ghey, am I right gang?
Door is wide open for an Indian leg wrestling/MMA event to take off..........
Hmmmmm? I wonder if this guy is aware of Napoleon Blownapart's channel?
Yeah, I like his videos. I made my XARM video years before he made his though. It's just a reupload.
@@BeigeFrequency If that's the case I take it back. My apologies.
Blindfold them and put on silly rubbermasks then i give it good chances 😂
Can you do a video on the greatness of actual Armwrestling? A lot of deep lore, and it's in something of a "golden age" right now
Who tf are the Fertata Brothers
Beige do a Cumia update
I doubt there's enough there to really dig into. He's just a boring and sad old man.
@bobobandy9382 nice haircut, stupid.
Aside from fathers in the Long Island area with troubled relationships to their teenage daughters, when is the last time someone has even given the slightest thought about Anthony Cumia?
@@btnhl me 6 days ago, fatso.
I had no idea this shit ever existed. Slap fighting has now slipped to second worst sport ever on my list.
Its actually even better than powerslap tho, and I like powerslap... lol
Arm wrestling is cringe asf and power slap is probably the dumbest thing ever
Oof
Do one on redbar
Lol
Bold of you to pronounce it X-ARM and not XSARM
YESIR, powerslap wants a talk with you my guy, dumbest sport you say? We’ll see about that 🤣
Sad but he was im the right ballpark just barking up the wrong tree... Idiocracy is real
This sport is ridiculous and barbaric. I'm going back to watch Power Slap instead.

Background in ebonics lmao
Beige x Blownapart crossover now please
Still not as stupid as Slap League
This video is not going to age well when X-Arm becomes the number one sport in America. USA!, USA!, USA!
7:46 what kind of chicanery...
Babe wake up, @Beigefrequency just posted ✨
This concept is almost as dumb as putting together a league based on grown men slapping each other.
comment for the algo
13:40 lmfao
Fur-tee-da brothers
Best Documentary channel on youtube.
You must have the lowest IQ on the planet 😂 Do you think it's a good documentary when you're talking about I don't know some 💩 sport and then you just go off on a tangent on some political leader ? I guess that's how he keeps geniuses like you to come back for more. 😂
how is the conclusion not that both are dumb?
Beige could make a doc about the history of tax law interesting
10:55
Ha Jake Paul
Do a vid on power slap please beige, I think it's fucking hilarious and good TV, but the MMA community just wants to cry about it like a bunch of babies. Please watch season 1 and then the first power slap event to get the "lore" 😂
First?
🥇
Just please don't do another Ngaannou video. Big man hits hard, wants momey. Steer clear of that shit
Covering Ngannou will kill you. Because neither him or you are more interesting than flies fucking sandpaper when you talk about him
Breaking news in the battle of Musk vs. Zuckerberg, Musk will only fight under XArm rules.
I like Dana White. His critics are hacks.
I remember this video when Napoleon did it. Except it had jokes and wasnt a book report.
