As much as we were hoping that this Bas Rutten video thing was a 42-part series from Fight Magazine, they seem to have reached a zenith with this video. It’s titled "El Guapo Likes to Dance," after a song that Bas says he wrote. "Stairway to Heaven" it ain’t, but it’s catchy and the accompanying footage also proves that it’s true. Our prediction? You will mock this video at first and then go about your day thinking nothing of it. Then, about four hours from now when you’re doing the last of your frantic Christmas shopping at the dollar store, you’ll catch yourself singing it and bopping your head along with the beat. That’s when you’ll look up and see everyone watching you, horrified and yet transfixed.
For more of Rutten’s world, go here. After the jump, the Mike Goldberg highlight reel that tells you everything you need to know.

MG: "Michael Jordan-esque in his grappling skills is Travis Lutter."
JR: "No, no he’s not. No."

I would have been first...but I just got done dancing.

My brain doesn't even register Mike Goldberg's voice when I'm watching UFC events. Seriously, he's such a drooling fucking idiot that I instinctively tune him out.

Bas is Kevin Mchale-esque is his song writing.

lmaoooo. "No, that's Japanese"

Bas Rutten is so sick. And Goldberg is indeed a moron.

Wow! Is it just me or does everybody from weird foreign countries love them some perfectly horrible techno! Although admittedly it is kinda catchy and easy to dance to (the latter can be especially helpful for the rhythm impaired). @ Goldy, at least after being reminded he was aware that he is married to a japanese chick. He was quickly on top of that, so to speak.

Don Frye found out that Goldberg wasn't a woman when he kneed him in the nuts three times.

Hey all you Goldberg haters STFU, apparently you have never seen Michael Jordan grapple!

this is a perfect example why bas should be sittin in goldberg's seat.. he's actually the gilberg of color commentary
Wed, 12/23/09 - 12:03
What makes Goldy THAT much funnier is that Joe Rogan is there to point out his benevolent stupidity. Still....between listening to strikeforce commentary and Mike Schiavello yelling "GOOD NIGHT IRENE" repeatedly, Goldberg and Rogan are still the dominating mma commentators. I looked up the El Guapo song on itunes and sadly found nothing...fuck

"this is a perfect example why bas should be sittin in goldberg's seat.." You just scared the bejesus out of me! I swear to gosh that I dont watch inside MMA without my finger poised strategically over the mute button to edit out Bas' whiteman ebonics stream of "bidda bing, boody boom, yadda yadda, zippity dooda," etc! I thought Bas was the worst noise walking the earth, until I heard "the voice"! I cant watch dream/k1 with the sound on at all at this point.

Much like Don Frye's moustache, this song has mystical properties. When I hit play, I was sitting in my office, dreaming of going home. Now that it's over, I'm standing by the water cooler, completely naked. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME EL GUAPO!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Wed, 12/23/09 - 12:16
^^ You've got a point!

I think that Goldberg's only purpose is to make Rogan look better. After the crap the Goldberg says, Rogan sounds like a genius saying things as enlightening as "good leg kick". If I could make one decision for Zuffa, I would replace both of those jokers with Quadros and Rutten.

Meanfinger, the Gillberg reference was nice and really appropriate. I bet that's a sentence that is spoken once every thousand years. "A millennium, if you will."
Wed, 12/23/09 - 01:34
Ha Ha Ha!! Now you need to make a Michael Shavello's cheesey one-liners Highlight reel." He went down faster than Lindsay Lohan at a coke party" "Good night Irene!!!"
Wed, 12/23/09 - 01:40
Bas is awesome!
Wed, 12/23/09 - 01:42
Favorite Line in the Goldberg Vid.: "You're right Mike Goldberg"
Wed, 12/23/09 - 02:45
lol "Diaz smells... the opening" my god his WIFE is Japanese and he cant recognize the language?!?!? Guess he just loves Sushi. Classic Goldberg Bas Rutten "whiteman ebonics" LMAO
Wed, 12/23/09 - 03:14
I think we should replace joe Rogan with Bas for a night. Bas would have fun with Goldberg.

Rutten speaks, i listen. (He is a legend). Fuck Joe Rogan, he has had all the surgeries and can grow all the muscles he wants.., but he is still a comedian. Maybe a lot of you guys forget this. Funny guys DO have a place in the showbiz we call MMA.

That Bas Rutten song plays during the menu of his Combat DVDs. I once woke up after a long night of drinking with this song playing over and over on my tv!
