Bas' Fighting Records
I foudn this on bas ruttens website. Interesting to see all the different ways he won his fights.
In the 28 wins that Bas Rutten had in MMA, only three fights went to a decision.
The way that he won was also in different kinds of fashion, he’s known for loving his body shots, but as you can see at this list, the ways he won are pretty much all different.
Also, the myth that he’s solely a striker doesn’t really match his resume, because he won more fights by submission than by KO.
Since Pancrase had “rope escapes” and “eight counts”, we counted also the “eight counts” and “rope escapes”, since nowadays in MMA these would have been the end of a fight.
He’s undefeated in his last 22 fights, a nice little note here; after he lost his last fight against Ken Shamrock by submission; he said that this would never happen again; he started training submissions two times a day, something that he had never done before.
The result? From his next 8 fights after that loss, he won SEVEN by submission! (One by decision, but also due to his submission skills because it was against Frank Shamrock, Bas had him two times in a straight knee bar but the ref broke it up because they were to close to the ropes)
The numbers are how many people he had with that submission or “eight count”, the names are the people he KO’d or submitted in order to win the fight.

Bas always said that his “defending the takedown” skills were not good. When he prepared himself for his last fight (June 2006) against Kimo Leopoldo (later became Ruben Vallereaal because Kimo tested positive for steroids), he trained with wrestlers such as Matt Lindland and Dan Henderson, they even said that it would be VERY hard to take Bas down as his takedown defense became really good.
