Bas Rutten Biography

Bas Rutten Biography: Sebastiaan “Bas” Rutten was born on February 24, 1965, in Tilburg, Netherlands, and as a kid, suffered from eczema and severe asthma. Bas was a thin youngster regularly tormented because he couldn’t exercise. So he began boxing training with a friend in the elementary school yard.

Bas began fighting in kickboxing at the age of 20 while working as a bouncer and model. He fought 16 times, winning the first 14 by knockout (13 in the first round) before losing the last two.

Bas Rutten Career

During his seven-year career as a fighter, Bas Rutten popularized the liver shot (both strike and kick), one of his favored techniques. In addition, he gained notoriety for his celebratory victory split, known as the “Rutten Jump.” He has fought and defeated notable mixed martial arts competitors such as Minoru Suzuki, Maurice Smith, Frank Shamrock, Guy Mezger, Masakatsu Funaki, Tsuyoshi Kosaka, and Randleman.

He was crowned UFC Heavyweight Champion once, King of Pancrase World Champion three times, and completed his career with a 22-fight unbeaten streak. In 1999, he sustained several severe injuries, including a knee dislocation, biceps rupture, and neck injury, which led to his retirement on the doctor’s advice.

Bas proclaimed his return to MMA competition in 2006 after receiving medical clearance. Kimo Leopoldo was scheduled to confront him, but two days before the fight, he tested positive for an illicit steroid. Bas won by technical knockout in the first round after two soft knees rendered his opponent unable to stand against Ruben “Warpath” Villareal.

Bas tested positive for morphine, hydrocodone, and diphenhydramine afterward. His mixed martial arts record concluded with 28 victories, 11 of which were by knockout, four defeats, and one draw. UFC President Dana White announced Bas’ induction into the UFC Hall of Fame in 2015.
