Holy crap, you guys. Here’s the first trailer for Never Surrender, which stars Georges St. Pierre, Anderson Silva, BJ Penn, Heath Herring, and Quinton Jackson. Judging from the preview, the movie seems to be about UFC stars kicking people. But according to the plot summary on IMDb, there’s more to it than that:
Never Surrender is an erotically charged [Ed. note: seriously?], controversial action-thriller set in the world of underground street fighting where an MMA fighter who has been drawn into the world by an erotic [Ed. note: there's that word again!] and sexy promoter, quickly realizes that there is no way out, other than death.
Erotic and sexy, huh? Might this mysterious promoter be based on Gary Shaw, perhaps? Never Surrender is written and directed by Hector Echavarria, and will hit theaters in the Spring. Someday a smart filmmaker will make a good movie about above-ground street fighting, but for now this will have to do.
After the jump: A new promo for WEC 37, where Frank Mir talks about what a beast Miguel Torres is. The clip they show at 0:39-0:42 is just one of the reasons that Torres’s most recent fight against Yoshiro Maeda was immediately hailed as a fight-of-the-year candidate.

Wooooo.... we got some bad acting, fighting and naked chicks in swimming pools... All thats missing is..... well nothing is missing actually! This looks like an NC-17 version of Blood Sport.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:19
That freeze frame of BJ is priceless. The look on his face says, "This is so fucking gay, bro, but like, I'm getting paid, so it's like, you know what I'm saying, bro?"
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:21
What is this? Crazy Crap Day at CagePotato? "Never Surrender" makes Rich Franklin's movie look like "Citizen Kane". Couldn't the world's greatest mixed martial artists have joined up and done something that was good instead of this turd? It was "erotic". I'll give it that. B.J. Penn's bowling ball head never looked hotter.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:23
Wow. I can't believe these guys would sign off on fighting like that. You'd think a legit MMA fighter would be like, "Um, you realize that if I got an uncontested right hook on a guy who's not defending himself, the fight would be over, right?" Those fight scenes have nothing in common with real fighting at all. And what's with all the flipping?
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:23
“Never Surrender” makes Rich Franklin’s movie look like “Citizen Kane”. A++ WOULD DO BUSINESS AGAIN
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:23
That's got to be the worst trailer ever. and ya, that's blood sport by the sounds of it
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:29
Psyched for Torres vs. Tapia There's gonna be taco sauce flyin' everywhere.... What? I'm only twelve. I can't even spell "racizm".... see?
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:30
it looks like porn... just with fight scenes instead of sex. a loose plot, and bad acting, just to tie the story together so you can watch what you got the movie for, sex... errrr, fighting.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:30
Oh Christ I skipped Never Back Down but I am 100% for this pile of crap. It looks amazingly bad/awesome.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:31
Oh Christ I skipped Never Back Down but I am 100% down for this steaming pile of crap. It looks amazingly bad/awesome.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:32
@ MMA Eruption.com I passed on "Never Back Down" too. Speaking of MMA films, "Redbelt" was actually VERY good, but it really wasn't about MMA. More about honor and the choices we make in life. For a straight-up fun MMA movie, check out Wu Jing in "Fatal Contact"! Jing is a classicly trained wushu artist and, as cliche as it sounds, looks like he's poised to be the next Jet Li. "Fatal Contact" has lots of MMA fighting including a crazy battle royale where one of the fighters starts sticking nails through his gloves and shoes and starts wailing away on his opponents. Very fun!
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:34
hahahaha oh that clip just made my anushole quiver
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:37
That's terrible. i've seen internet parodies that look more realistic than that. Lord save us.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:42
SELLOUTS all of 'em! HA HA, why would you ever agree to play a role in a shit bag like this. None of them except maybe Heath Herring need the extra money. I don't think there is anything more exciting than watching a movie with a bunch of MMA guys trying to act. Should be worth buying that's for sure!
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:45
I known when I think of erotic, the 1st person i think of is BJ Penn. Who gets turned on by a walking Cabbage Patch doll?
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:54
NO DO NOT WANT
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:54
I think I just threw up a little in my mouth...
Tue, 11/18/08 - 06:58
"There’s gonna be taco sauce flyin’ everywhere…." Trust me, Torres has you beat when it comes to borderline racist jokes about his heritage.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:04
I think you guys are confused. This was a trailer for UFC 100 "Never Surrender"
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:09
Do we really need the 1990's style triple backflip to agonizing stomach landing? Forgot this was pro wrestling. Pretty ghey imo.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:22
I'm not impressed with GSPs performance...
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:27
Official Press Release: Never Surrender will hit theaters in March and will disappear the day after.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:31
The idea of using big ufc stars in mma movies is in theory good, but come onnnnn thjey cant act shit. never back down will be even better than this one....
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:36
i wasn't sold on this movie until the random clip of the chick masturbating in a bathtub at two eleven. That is just plain ridiculous.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 07:58
Most of the fighters in that movie are kind of just standing there. Looking off camera. They're probably looking at whatever's suppose to be erotic.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 08:17
Will they have the guns in the cage? I'd love to hear Rogan say the line "he weighed in at 204 but it looks like hes packed on about four pounds since then".
Tue, 11/18/08 - 08:23
WAIT?!?!?!? WHAT THE FUCK??!!?!? IS GSP WEARING AN AFFLICTION SHIRT and JEANS!!!!! yes he is!!!!! but those jeans make his ass look more FIRM!!!! (Why do I always result in homoerotic comments….WHY?!?!) damn those jeans
Tue, 11/18/08 - 08:32
Shit makes me cringe.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 08:37
Lmao! @Boner I ca't believe that wasn't said sooner. As for the film... I see an Oscar coming Penn's way. Pumpkin Headed Hawaiians FTW!
Tue, 11/18/08 - 08:45
can't*
Tue, 11/18/08 - 08:58
What I like about MMA is that it is REAL. I hate fake wrestling and I hate bad action movies. Why do I want to watch the best fighters in the world pretend to fight? These guys can fight, but they all suck at acting.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 09:05
I heard the three way sex scene between Penn, Silva, and St. Pierre was shot beautifuly but the one with Rampage and Herring was just fucked up to see. Either way this movie looks erotic.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 09:18
Please don't do this. I don't want to become embarrassed about MMA. RESIST THE URGE TO MAKE MMA ANYTHING REMOTELY LIKE FUCK ASS FAKE WRESTLING.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 09:25
well theres time terribly spent, couple things I would like to point out... that girl in the pool seems to have nippleless breasts, and whats with rampage's "snarl" face? he clearly just smelled BJ's fart that was forced out by one of those twirling kicks.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 09:27
The song playing during the trailer wasn't too bad, but the movie itself looks like it's gonna suck harder than Tito Ortiz's wife!
Tue, 11/18/08 - 10:08
That's what MMA needs. More Moonsaults.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 10:32
NealTaflinger said it all- BJ looked like he was embarrassed to be in this movie. Was this even real, or some sort of elaborate joke? I mean, Heath Herring's opponent was wearing slacks and a belt in the cage. I hope they all got paid, cause its gonna take a big-time PR effort to recover from this disgrace. Thumbs up on the chick banging herself in the tub, though. If you'll all excuse me, I'll be headed to Youporn.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 11:14
that just looks sad. yay for the payday.
Tue, 11/18/08 - 11:18
Are we sure this isn't just a music video for...whatever shitty band sings that shitty song?
Wed, 11/19/08 - 01:29
What's with all the kicking in the trailer? If someone had never seen MMA before watching this trailer, they would think that fighters do nothing in the cage other than roundhouse kicks.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 01:43
this is the worst fucking piece of steaming shit i've ever seen. those fighters' agents should be shot for letting them participate in this cockgobbling of a movie. might as well be 1985 and fucking jean claude van douche starring in it...puts mma back 20 years.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 01:51
That is abosolutely horrible. Nothing makes me sick than seeing MMA fighters (whose real fighting in the cage I enjoy) get together and promote shitty hollywood acting. Sure, they're getting paid but that's just ridiculous, to ridicule one's own sport with the terrible fight sequences...I'm speechless. Never back down was so horrible I didn't bother to see it, and this looks even worse. Fucking shame.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 02:28
From one of my favorite movies, A Bronx Tale, There is nothing sadder in life than wasted talent... this movie is a huge waste of talent. That makes me sad. Torres should be carrying the Bad Ass Mother Fucker wallet.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 03:28
wow, couldn't even get thru the whole promo, that sucks huge, and the music is annoying. I want no part of that garbage. "never surrender" coming soon to a trash heap near you.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 04:24
Oh my fucking god that video is hilarious. Between the bad music, shitty fake fighting and Silva's "badass" face I couldn't stop laughing. ps. how does Herring come into this picture..? Too bad they couldn't get Fedor. He could watch everyone fight with a sleepy expression on his face, step into the ring and bitch slap someone to death. FOR THAT i would watch this movie.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 04:56
Wow looks like Anderson Silva, Gsp and rampage are all gonna be in an other movie called death warrior, where "Five of the best mixed martial arts champions from around the world are forced to play a deadly game, a game to the death." Sounds even worst. I thought at first this was a joke actually, I still want them to be jokes.... common wtf is going threw these guys head...
Wed, 11/19/08 - 06:54
GSP by RNC
Wed, 11/19/08 - 12:14
Still laughing at Jim Smith's Cabbage Patch Doll slam.... it's oh so true. I said that the first time I saw him. Him and George Foreman both look like live Cabbage Patch Kids! And GSP reminds me of Jean-Claude Van Damme. I bet his acting is probably worse, though. But I digress... This movie is 110% guaranteed to be pure suckage from start to finish. I've never seen a movie trailer as lame as this. In fact I think it will be straight-to-video. I highly doubt it will make it to theaters.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 03:46
"# Jay Smith Says: November 19th, 2008 at 4:27 pm The song playing during the trailer wasn’t too bad, but the movie itself looks like it’s gonna suck harder than Tito Ortiz’s wife!" You fucking son of a fucking bitch. THE MUSIC WAS BAD. BAD.
Wed, 11/19/08 - 03:52
I am not impressed by your acting performance....lol Yea Gene Siskel i hear that GSP is reminicsend of JCVD a lot by people who arent huge MMA fans. Has anybody seen Rich Franklins movie with Kelly Kapowski??? or know the name of it? Cyborg somethin. I think im gonna get that shit from netflix
Wed, 11/19/08 - 07:34
Ong Bak probably has better fight scenes. and the song was terrible. sounds like a WWE entrance song. the idea of seeing mma stars in one movie is exciting, but this one just might suck worse than van damme's street fighter
Thu, 11/20/08 - 04:25
Ong Bak does have better fight scenes, cause it's a great muay thai movie. The protector is the shit as well.
Thu, 04/02/09 - 04:48
watched the trailer and noticed bj penn and rampage are in it, thats pretty solid
