24 pages, what a read! I got a chance to fight for streetbeefs 2 times last year, in fact, it was during 2 of the events you have covered.

I'm from Wa state, i was sent to VA for a temp job. Ive watching the fights since the beginning, they always interested me. When i found out i was going over there I contacted scarface, he did an interview with me, and i showed up to the nov 2018 show (espn was there) . I showed up to the dec 2018 show too.

I had a great time, the people were nice and treated me good.

Do you feel that a beef would have helped or hurt your performance in street beefs

To be honest, a boxing match to me is nothing more than hard sparring, there are no real feelings involved in it for me. If it were a beef fight i could see having emotion, adrenaline, and the need to finish it quick. Those can all negativity affect your performance.

You didn't get paid for it right?

Also you watch a lot of MMA/Pro Wrestling?

There's no money involved, just like amateur boxing. They're very strict on this, no betting/paying fighters.
Its free to watch, participate, and offers a lot of exposure if that's what you're looking for.

I watched WWE when i was younger, i had a friend that is a big time WWE star now.

I do watch some MMA and boxing, mainly the big fights. I used to do mma, i had 4 matches about 10yrs ago.

I guess my question is, how many of the guys feel like dudes out to have a laugh and live their punch boy dreams and how many of the dudes are guys who take it super seriously?

It varies, i mean, we all want to win, but i guess some would take a loss harder than others. Depends on goals too, if they want to eventually go into sanctioned fights, they probably don't want to take too many losses.

staguar posted:

Why does round bearded ref feel like he has to do the stupid nose rubbing? Are the refs just random dudes who want to be involved but can't fight? Did you see the different refs working on their gimmicks on how to start the fight?

Yea, they all have their gimmicks and catch phrases, he's a good guy though.

Big streetbeefs event this Sat, might be the biggest one yet. Former UFC lightweight champ Jens Pulver will be there guest refereeing. Expect to see 20-30 fights. Id you aren't subbed to them on youtube, check them out, they're entertaining.

Next month they fight at Mike Tysons ranch in California. I may fight there (depending on transportation) if i do, ill fight the "drunken master". We are both west coasters that have fought in VA. there are only 4 of us total.

So your matches are set in advance? Do a bunch of potential fighters say they're interested then scarface makes up a card? For some reason streetbeefs made me think it was like a random tournament where everyone registers at 10 am and scarface pairs people up when registrations close.

You're right, they do pair people there, but if we both show up, we will both be paired, only because we asked scarface about it ahead of time. Cali fights for the first couple months will also be west coast fighters only. In a couple months they will start having guys from VA flying over, kind of an east vs west thing.

West coast will also be more setup with actual weight classes.

Firechicken
Sep 4, 2019

I should mention, I've been seeing this as a reoccurring theme, when a more widely known fighter loses a match, that loss doesn't stick.

In the italian tyson fight, they label tyson as something like 5-0, yet he got his butt kicked by Maine and lost.

Another was king leonidas, he's lost to italian tyson two times, yet his losses were taken away.

One reason ive heard for this in the past, when a fighter is removed from the group they remove anyones loss to that fighter that's ever happened, almost like they're trying to erase them from existence. But, they don't erase anyone that that fighters lost to, just who they've beaten, only works one way i guess.

I always assumed the fighters reported their own records and scarface just takes it at face value.

Firechicken, I am curious about your take on Tyson dirty hit. Like, you've actually competed, does it make you nervous or angry about fighter safety at all?

The fighters records are only represented by their fights in the yard, previous sanctioned matches don't count. So their fight record is only against other streetbeefs fighters.

Watch A-train vs italian tyson, not the first time he's made a questionable shot.

Im mor worried about fighter safety, they tend to stop fights early.

Italian Tyson has thrown at least one dirty shot in literally every match of his I've seen, dude is incredible because he's maybe the filthiest fighter in STREETBEEFS and also just loving loses constantly. It takes a lot of...something...to so brazenly cheat and still lose consistently.

Italian Tyson has only lost to Maine.

I thought maybe they removed the loss because maine might of been removed from the group, but i haven't heard that he was removed, his name is still on the wall of fame.

The only other questionable shot ive seen was against A train.

On a separate note, did anyone see Static vs Bucket List? Static is an Admin in the streetbeefs facebook group. We've argued a few times.

What I don't get about Italian Tyson is that he clearly trains and clearly wants to be a pro fighter so why doesn't he just go pro already or at least do some legit amateur comps

To be honest, it's probably the exposure he gets, plus the fights will be easier in the yard for him than if he fought sanctioned.

Hey BJJ streetbeefs question for you. Why do so many of these dudes fall for rear naked chokes when they seem crazy hard to get when rolling. Is it something way easier no Gi or do these dudes just not know how to defend?

The RNC is a blood choke, it's more difficult to try and tough out than a submission like the guillotine choke, which cuts off your air supply instead of blood going to the brain like the RNC.

Firechicken, do you have a copy of the waiver that you signed before your fights? We really need to read what Scarface thinks will protect him in court.

I don't, i only signed one before my first fight though, dont know if it covers me from then on.

I believe they had a lawyer write it up.

They have a mutual combat law there, similar to washington state. After taking to local law enforcement here i was told that a waiver can protect them from court, the local pd suggested i get a lawyer to write it and have it notarized, which i believe he did in VA.

I'm not sure how I feel about the "everyone's a winner" doctrine, but I suppose for actual beef fights it could be useful for conflict resolution.

I agree on the draws, but its not my organization, so i just have to accept.

They don't announce winners and losers in beef fights

Beef fights are actually rare, maybe 1-2 a month compared to 30 non beef fights.

Ever since Jens pulver showed up there have been 30+ fights at an event. Compared to when i was there and it was under 10 fights.

There was a lot of really disrespectful trash talk from Tyson leading up to this, i do have screen shots. Jroc humbled tyson, controlling him the whole time and winning via Unanimous Decision. Jens Pulver did a break down of the fight, agreeing with the judges. Of course Tyson appealed the decision, lost the appeal, but still believes he's "7-0", despite losing to Jroc, Maine, and Atrain.

Scarface is going to go for the Triple H treatment and never have his character portrayed in a defenseless or vulnerable position, and definitely not tapping out.

A fan is actually developing the game, not the streetbeefs admin themselves.

Id honestly like to see some of the OG's be hidden or unlockable, like Vandal, scarface, El Diablo etc...

Anyone know how to post pictures in here? Do i have to go to an image hosting site and post a URL?
