Ever sit at home on your couch and scream at your favorite Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighter when they make a boneheaded move inside the Octagon?
Join the club.
Jerry Rips is back with another video of screaming cornermen (see his hilarious Nick Diaz video here), this time spotlighting Matt Hamill vs. Roger Hollett (UFC 152), Tito Ortiz vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (UFC 140) and Nate Diaz vs. Donald Cerrone (UFC 141).
Corner for Hamill while on top of Hollett in round three:
Cornerman 1: Elbows! Where's the goddamn elbows?!?
Cornerman 2: Don't worry my man, we won the fight.
Cornerman 1: Shut up! I don't wanna win, I wanna make a fucking statement! After a fight like that, don't run around and act like we fucking did anything.
Corner for Ortiz while getting beat up by Nogueira:
Cornerman: Double! What are you doing? (Tito flops to the ground) WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!? Where you at, Tito? Get up! You gotta try, Tito!
Corner for Cerrone while getting worked by Diaz:
Greg Jackson: Give me five minutes of hell! Do you understand me? FIVE MINUTES OF HELL!
Greg Jackson: GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FIRST! GO FORWARD! GO FORWARD!
Good stuff.
Sometimes what they work on in camp isn't what makes it into the Octagon, which must be incredibly frustrating for a coach, who must sit idly by as their fighter fails to execute, abandons the gameplan or just flat-out folds under pressure.
