What up with the video... doesn't work
He says here it will probably be April 25th
when is ben gonna fight again?
I don't know how good Josh Flowers is, but he did terrible scouting. He through all his weight into that pre-takedown punch(against a wrestler). Askren had great timing with his double-leg and Josh never had a chance from there on out. Askren did all the right things(hooking the legs and flattening his opponent out after taking josh's back. Overall Askren does a great job, but I need to see him fight someone much better in order to jump on the bandwagon.
Wow, did they just pick this kid up off the street? When he fights someone who is actually skilled, I will pay attention. I will go a head and say ben is a good wrestler, but I am going to hold the phone on the MMA career for right now.
What's up with the love handles Ben? Was it bad video, or did Ben look a little soft? Just sayin.
That was Kiko who dropped him, he was a little tired after kicking his 6'9" guys ass earlier in the night.
theres no audio?
wow that was terrible........ when is he going to fight someone tough?
flowers injured is hand on bens chin
jajajaja his coach is week
GOOD Job Ben. Ur an awesome wrestler, I've seen a lot of your wrestling matches. All are exciting. You'll do fine in the fight game. Next time just throw those hands and don't worry about getting hit. With a chin like urs it'll take a wrecking ball to knock you out. JK. Keep it up.
flowers in a tank, ben is just a great wresler. If josh kept him up it was his fight. Flowers is a great mma fighter props to ben.
that fight was god aweful.
that was a lame fight...but a win is a win
and wow that was a epic fail by the coach
Ben's friend trying to lift him up after the fight = Epic Fail.
haha best part is when his trainer or whatever runs in at 3:05 and picks him up and drops him
Great debut! Way to hadle your biz.

He could have ended it sooner by hammering the back of the head. Did the rules allow it?
he has alot of work to do. needs to improve his hands, fought a total can just temper the enthusiasm please. don't even know if his heart is totally into it
wow you guys are always quick to criticize. his stand up game looked fine..he was there for like 4 seconds and people have something to say. people are on this site for a reason, it's because they are fans..now be supportive and just say good job. You shouldn't criticize the guy who won.
Ben looks like he's open to head shots. He better start working on his boxing game, also a nice knee or kick to his head might be opened. You can' t double leg everyone. He just started so give him 2-3 years my guess. I have no idea what his submission game is.
Bens weaknes is his stand up, but he is just getting started in MMA and he will fix that. The trainers really need to work on the celebration lift though, that was funny when they tried to lift Ben and he fell to the mat.
Yo if Ben works on his stand up and submission skills DAMMMMM! one bad ASS MO FO... It will take a little bit but he'll do very well in MMA good luck Ben And God Bless
lol i thought i was going crazy but there actually is no sound. Ya ben needs to work on his stand up game hardcore he kinda looked like a wimp for a little bit on his feet.
ben needs to work at it...but behind him 100 percent. Martin u da mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Thanks again !!!!
Baskren needs to work on his standup game... took a couple good ones before he got the takedown
What more can we say? Even without sound, you can see Ben's focus is intense.
