I was wondering on all the known fixed fights in any promotion or fights that were suspicious of being fixed or influenced. Not meant to bash any fighter, just interested on the topic
I know Thompson vs Kimbo had an odd stoppage
Coleman vs Takada is a pretty obvious one
I'm sure someone will post a gif
Coleman wanted to get subbed lol
Rambo John J - Franklin vs. Ken ShamrockThought he just slipped and got tko'd. Haven't seen it since live
this is rarely talked about especially in the threads about Pride and fixed and or worked fights.
Watch the fight and watch the most obvious fix work caught on film.
Amazing and ridiculous, did Ken think replay wasn't gonna see it.
In slow mo it is pure comedy.
gif please

Shaq Attack -![]()
Ken Shamrock vs Matt Hume
Don Fry vs Mark Hall
Oleg Taktarov vs Anthony Macias
Dan Severn vs Shannon Ritch
Travis Lutter vs Marvin Eastman
Seth vs Kimbo
to name a few.
i read a boob on here today trying to say that kimbo vs houston alexander was fixed, i think it was just a shitty ass fight
Rambo John J - Franklin vs. Ken ShamrockNot fixed. If any foul play was involved, Ken threw it without Rich knowing to put Rich over. But it isn't clear if that's even the case.

Funaki Masakatsu #1 -Bullshit. Franklin threw that hard right after to compensate for shitty timing.Rambo John J - Franklin vs. Ken ShamrockNot fixed. If any foul play was involved, Ken threw it without Rich knowing to put Rich over. But it isn't clear if that's even the case.

Beggsie - Not sure if it was fixed, but the Aaron Riley fight vs Shane Nelson fight was a godawful stoppage.![]()
I asked Aaron about this when I interviewed him last year. It was a terrible stoppage and that is why the UFC gave him an immediate rematch. (which he won) He said it was terrible, and was very grateful that the UFC brass gave him the chance to prove it was a bad call.
Anyone remember the Falcao vs. Harris drama?
I've always thought Miletich vs Linland looked fishy. Like Pat threw it because he was mad the UFC made him move to that weight class instead of his original.
There was a fight in the UK, with Alex Reid and somebody else, fixed for sure

The gif I always saw was this one:

^Very misleading.
With the one you posted, I actually see what Ken was attempting.
RandyDarsh - i read a boob on here today trying to say that kimbo vs houston alexander was fixed, i think it was just a shitty ass fight
That fight looked extremely suspicious to me. I'd be very suprised if there wasn't anything strange going on there.
Dan sevrrn a few years back when he fought dude in that shitty league can't remember his name
Pudz v. Thompson
A lot of Dan Severn's fight's were fixed. There was a whole thread on here once about it. Most of them happened in little towns around the country. I personally seen one of them live back in the 90's.
lenz0799 - Coleman vs Takada is a pretty obvious oneThis.
I'm sure someone will post a gif
Bas Rutten let it slip at a press conference before the fight how the fight was going to end (heel hook by Takada) and when it was going to end (6 minutes or so into the first round).
One of the most obviously fixed fights in the history of MMA.
