“…I stopped training Kimbo. I had him six weeks before the last fight (a loss to Seth Petruzelli on October 4), I talked to him about certain things that I didn’t like, and he promised never to do it again, and then he started doing it again. If people come to me and ask me to train them, I want them to do what I tell them to do, because that’s what they came for. … Once you start doing different things, you’re out. It’s not because he got knocked out. This was already in progress long before the fight.”
Enjoyed. Thanks for posting. Bas’s poor knees man. You imagine having to walk backwards down the driveway just to alleviate the pain? Love his spirit and great sense of humor.
I fucking love this guy, no bullshit straight shooter. Plus this guy is funny as hell and will kill you with a smile on his face and dead shark like eyes. One of the reasons I watch Iside the MMA is because of him… Godspeed and Party On.

No need for Rogan; Quadros and Rutten are great together. I can’t, for the life of me, understand why Affliction doesn’t use those two for their main cards. They can still use Tito to draw people as third/colour commentary.
Agreed. Frank S, Frank M, Bas or bring back Bruce Beck. Blatnick is a nice guy but he has the annoying habit of mispronouncing names more times per event than Joe Rogan says “____ got rocked.”
It bugs me. He did it in the UFC and he’s been doing it in NCAA wrestling for years and years. If a kid works his ass off and makes it to the national championship, do your homework and learn how to pronounce his last name.
Cool interview. During the undercard I remembering thinking, “Holy hell, Bas looks and sounds like he is on 10 kinds of drugs.” I guess the knee surgery and morphine explains that.
