![]() | I believe that was one of Sak's very first NHB fights. Kimo had a little more experience than him, and took it to him. Just shows that there's no shame in losing only in not learning from the experience. |

![]() | I have no doubt that even with the gross weight differences between Sak and Kimo that Sak would take Kimo out if there was a rematch. Sak is a well improved fighter since there fight. |

I agree that Sak would beat Kimo if they had a rematch. It's been awhile since then. Oh, and he would definitely beat Igor if they had a rematch. I can't believe he agreed to fight that guy after 90 minutes of Royce Gracie! | |

![]() | Sak going on to a 2nd fight made me respect him more and had Sak on his back when endurance ran out against tree trunk Igor let alone a final 3RD fight. Single fights are more exciting when they can turn up the pacing of endurance a bit. Let Sak fight all rematches first before retiring Kimo Goes Igor Mezger |

![]() | M.A lol ... Was that the only two losses on Saks record ?Ive heard that he has been quoted as saying he has lots of wins an losses !but keeping in mind that he is a "pro wrasseler' I dont know really what context to put that in . As far as entertainment goes was it a good fight! Yeah i have to agree with the hart Sak showed in comming out to fight Igor .Bravo! this may be a little off topic but do you think that N.H.B is only entertaining when it envolves fighters that are at the upper eschalons (sp?)of the fight game ?Or do you think its all in the match ups ?thanks 4 the replys wu |

![]() | In NHB/MMA, Sak only has 2 losses - Kimo and Vovchanchin. The Kimo fight was his first fight ever, but he actually fought pretty similarly to how he fights now. He went for the outside Kimura, gave up his back, etc. much the way he still does. The main difference is that he went for the Kimura and honestly looked to win with it the entire time rather than simply frustrate and move the opponent. He also ate some pretty mean headbutts to the back of his head. While they weren't going to finish him, they did look painful. The finish was via a reverse head+arm (some people call it a scarf) choke. To be honest, the way it was applied - I simply don't think Sak understood what was going on. Anyway, I've heard report of this fight not being real, but it looked pretty legit to me. There were NO signs of any kind of funny business and both guy were going full out the entire time. After that Sak went on to defeat the following opponents in order: Paul Herrera (in Kingdon - a legit fight, though)Conan Silviera, Vernon White, Carlos Newton, a draw with Goes in which Goes probably would've won a close decision, Vitor Belfort (total asskicking), Ebeneezer Braga, Anthony Macias (suplex bait!), Royler Gracie, Guy Mezger (this would've been a draw IMO), Royce Gracie, a loss to Igor that was nothing to worry about (he did better than Kerr did!) Renzo Gracie, Shannon Rich, and Ryan Gracie. AFAIK, that's it.

![]() | i read somewhere where sak says his first pro fight was with conan silveria. so that means that the sak vs kimo fight was a work. wasn't it kingdom that put that fight together and kingdom is a pro wrestling organization. so in conclusion, it was probably a work. |
