Dave Batista won his MMA debut in a not so impressive fashion.

    He won by stoppage with less than a minute to go in the opening round.

    His opponent is 300 lbs and looking more obese than in shape.

    He actually managed to land on Batista due to his nonexistent defense. Whether it's due to nerves or he really isn't used to that thing is up for debate.

    Anyways, Batista managed to score a takedown and that was the start of the end. He managed to get the back of his opponent and attempted a rear naked choke but settled for GnP instead.

    My own opinion, I'm a fan of his and I want to see him well in MMA, but from what I saw, he ain't going very far.

    Never thought I'd say this, but Brock is even in another class over Batista. If they fought in the cage, it would end Batista's life

    Not really, but you can bet the nerves really did get to him. And I'm not just talking about those thing protruding on his chest.

    He's too stiff. Maybe if he loosens up a bit he might be able to display something.

    They should call him --> Dave 'Arm Puncher' Batista

    Even Brock wasn't this bad.

    Guess the hype that Brock is a gifted athlete ain't BS afterall.

    Compared to this.

    The dude he fought was 300+ lbs of out of shape goooooeyness...and he STILL managed to rock Batista. Most likely due to Batista's inability to realize the other guy would be throwing punches.The reason the fat guy was getting hit was because he wouldn't have been able to get up unless he had a crane helping him. It wasn't like Batista's punches hurt the 'man' on the his belly like a fish, it's just the guy couldn't move to get back up. The punches Batista was taking and his porous defense seriously makes me think I would be able to land a bunch of shots on him. More than the big guy he fought at least. That guy was slower than the government issuing out rebate cheques. Batista would probably have finished me on the ground though, but maybe not...This is meant to illustrate how BAD Batista was and nothing to do with my ability or lack thereof lol.

    Only his stamina is better than Pudzianowskis, Pudza would destroy him

    It must have been an interesting change for Batista entering into a fight where the outcome wasn't predetermined to the point it tightly scripted.

    Dude forgets fighting is a skill and a craft. He is only in it for the glory but he won't get far by the looks of that video.

    He was 5000% better than Joe Lauzon is as an interviewer. Jesus Christ.
