I was always under the impression that Krav was complete bullshit. But I was listening to Bas Rutten on Tim Ferriss podcast and he was pushing Krav for basic self-defense. Is this stuff actually legit?

Mostly yes, but there are some very good instructors that are hard to find. Most of the good ones ae former Israeli military and Mossad.

Bas is a huckster. He’s Dutch Ron Popeil.
Krav Maga is bullshit, he’s just involved in some scheme where pushing it is going to make him money.

Honestly I lost a lot of moral respect when he started judging and talking shit about guys for using gear, then was filled through the fuckin eyeballs with opiods in his fight, not to mention he’s Dutch and Test can be sold and bought at your local GNC like creatine. Then when Chris Leben told his side of the story about not getting paid, 100% loss.
P.S. He lost to Kevin Randleman

As far as opiods, some fighters can fight better with. I’m not talking the spike, but chewing some vicodin helps, but Bas had a fuckin morphine drip in between rounds.

I met Bas many years ago at an underground fight in Compton. My buddy is his doppelgänger. Looks just like him. Bas turns around and is face to face with my buddy. He stares him up and down and then cracks a huge smile and he says,” you are a good looking guy”. He then opens his trench coat revealing that it has loops for beers and he says ,” come on guys have a beer with the best looking two guys in the world”. He hands me and my buddy a beer and we had a blast drinking beers with Bas.

If it weren’t for Hollywood, nobody would even give a shit. You could beat up unarmed Palestinians with good old fashioned Chinese Boxing.
