Video: 125-pounder Ricardo Sattelmayer fights 286-pounder Tobias Barbeiro


If you’re an old-school fight fan who fondly remembers the good ol’ freak-show days of MMA, Brazil’s got just the thing for you.

At a Coyotes Fight Night event in Brazil this past Saturday, 125-pound flyweight Ricardo Sattelmayer took on 286-pound super heavyweight Tobias Barbeiro to help the organization deliver on its promise of “open-weight” fights.

It was clearly a mismatch – but in the way or for the reasons you might’ve expected.

Check out Sattelmayer (4-7), who clearly had the skills advantage despite his sub-.500 record, over MMA newcomer Barbeiro (0-1). The vet put in a short night of work against an opponent who was more than twice his size.

However, according to MMAFighting.com‘s Guilherme Cruz, the weight disparity could’ve been even greater; according to Sattelmayer, he initially was slated to fight 485-pound judoka Julio Muralha.
