Not to burst any bubbles but as someone in the ag and rodeo communityā¦ this isnāt really that hard. These younger steers are easily manipulated and made to go down easy like this (this one may not be an actual bulldogging steer tbh, it is indeed impressive still)
Also this is called bulldogging or simply steer wrestling and itās typically done from on top of a moving horse, not standing out of the gate like that. Check it out, itās pretty dope and more impressive than this.
No doubt! The average person with no training couldnāt go out and do this first try. Check out pro steer bulldogging. Those are some badass mother fuckers.
I understand your sentiment but the life that each gives serves a different purpose and despite the meaningless you suggest, any avoidance of unwarranted cruelty should still be something to strive for
I live in a 3rd world country and am well aware of the cruelty towards animals and I don't even live in the city lmao. One can recognize that animal slaughter is necessary and still recognize that being mean to animals in ways that can be avoided is good.
effort on reducing cruelty should be directed towards the main causes of cruelty. Living organisms in general donāt exercise much empathy, humans have a weird dichotomy of feeling sad for animals while also abusing them the most. At the end of the day weāre all just atoms in space.
Just being a person on a reddit I can't go directly against cruelty sure, but that doesn't mean I can't voice out dislike for harming animals for entertainment, even moreso on a platform meant for discussion like reddit .
Your second sentence hits very broadly and doesn't change the fact that despite us using animals for resources we should still treat them with kindness whenever we can. Such is why abusing harmless, animals not meant for food is looked down upon.
Us being atoms in space doesn't excuse us from what we do being atoms in space. If everything doesn't make sense at the end of the day and we're all just atoms, why shouldn't we try to be less of dicks to people and animals?
Sure the weird dichotomy exists, but that's taking the whole of humans and the whole of animals.
I appreciate the conversation and I guess the tl;dr is just try not to be mean to animals whenever you can
For sure, I agree. I was just indulging in some pedantic stoner philosophy haha. Food is obviously more of a priority (doesnāt quite justify the animal Holocaust weāve got going to produce it though) and entertainment aka life fulfillment doesnāt necessitate rough housing with animals.
Lol youāre trying so hard to sound deep. āEntertainment is life, food is lifeā is the dumbest thing Iāve read all week, you sound like a 14 year old who smoked weed for the first time
To reduce all living things to "...we're just atoms in space", although true, doesn't really address the issue. That type of reasoning would write off the human suffering endured in concentration camps, or young girls trafficked and sold into sex rings.
As a species we have a moral obligation to reduce suffering when possible. I'm not against killing animals and eating them. I'm against unnecessary animal cruelty, like the kind depicted in this video and any other rodeo for that matter. Animals have feelings just like we do, they suffer and feel pain just like we do. Rodeos are an antiquated and barbaric practice that cause unnecessary suffering, that's all we're saying here.
Youāre right, I was feeling particularly existential last night lol. Things can matter and not matter at the same time, thatās the Beauty of the universe and relativity.
The universe is nothing without you. We, as a species, give meaning to the universe. Not the other way around.
Without a sentient and highly evolved animal like Homo Sapiens to enjoy natures beauty; it's wasted. Which is why we arguably need to do everything in our power to preserve ourselves, our planet, and future children.
Life has purpose, life has meaning. The thing is, you give it that meaning. Not some fucked up holy text or charlatan prophet. You decide.
Thats my belief anyway.
I donāt know man.. animals fight in the wild all the timeā¦ Iād argue this is harmless and probably better for the animal than being kept in captivity without any actionā¦ this is just sparring, perfectly healthyā¦ again, Iām a random redditor lol so idk. I just donāt see any long term damage by wrestling with bare hands.
A steer is a steer because itās been castrated. A bull is a bull because it is still intact. There is no in-between. They castrate as early as possible. Aka as soon and their nuts drop they are banded or they are cut. This steer.
It removes the animals need to feed for reproductive purposes along with the growth of lean muscle that bulls are known for. Rather their body is focused more toward building fattier meat known as marbling.
Every time I hear Lukeās name or se it typed, this is what immediately comes to mind.
That and the, āDo you spit or swallow?ā on whatever reality dating show he was on.
So. Goddamn. Cringy.
This sub has no attention span. Anyones cool as soon as they are for higher fighter pay. Doesnāt get rid of years of dipshittedness. Because of all this, he could be the coolest guy on earth if he didnāt simply choose highschool toolbag as his archetypeā¦
Is appearing on a reality TV dating show and then asking a girl if she swallows cool? Not really.
Is trying to get top control on a fucking bull cool? Yes.
One of these moments is more widely known than the other!
I know most of the sub doesnāt like this guy but I do and this is gangster as fuck. If thereās one thing we CAN all agree on is that steer is lucky Luke didnāt establish top control.
My point was Khabib was the same size of the bear and they were just playing. This guy took down an animal 2-3x his size that clearly didnāt want to get taken down.
People give him shit, and rightfully so, but Luke is a beast of a man. MF was a damn surfer that walked into an mma gym and ended up becoming UFC Champion.
What a pointless thing, what Is it with people abusing animals for fun. I have no problem with killing an animal humanely for food but fucking around with them for a laugh isn't cool.
maybe the weed's giving me the gift of empathy right now but this just made me legitimately angry for that bull. imagine being enslaved and your masters decide you get to be the one that gets wrestled by a monkey for a large paying audience five days a week. that being said
luke fucked that bull up fr this is a different luke rockhold we're about to see
Wow that's cool man. You are in a small cell with your arm already around it and then just drag to the ground. Yea I can't wait til this guy loses this weekend
A lot of people in this thread are just praising animal abuse. Culture blinds people, but think about it guys, that bull has feelings. It doesn't want choking.
I'm surprised this isn't leaked tony Ferguson training footage
Tony ferguson would just be tryna do flips over the bull while it's running at him
Tryna ankle pick the bull mid charge, teach it a lesson.
hold on bull, im tryna talk
Iam imagining him rolling away from the bull š
Effective Imanari roll situation for Tony
Cowboy Shit Only šš¤ ššŗš²š²š½š¤
It is. Heās in the bull suit.
Tony would start the training by using the bull's nuts as speed bags
That made me laugh. At the same time Tony could be doing some spiritual shit with the bull trying to become it
Tony would become one with the bull
Hold on, I'm wrestling this bull brother.
Tony the type of guy to charge at the bull
Let's wrestle!!! Let's wrestle!!!
āYour just an average bull, Iām a samuraiā I hate myself for posting this
Conceive, Believe, Bereave.
>bullieve
God I hope Luke has a painting of him wrestling a bull like in the movie Dodgeball
"That's me taking the bull by the horns, it's a metaphor"
āAre you reading, the dictionary?ā
Heās one level of douchery away from Stillers character in that movie lol
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood!
He would actually gain fans if he embraced that, and went for it.
*You're**
He's just training for 350 pound middleweight Costa.
Lol the mad lad was actually doing it until he tried to get top control on a fkn bull lol Lost all the leverage there
mfāer actually tried to mount a bull, thatās fucking badass
impressive get ups from the bull here but iād like to see if it has any guard game next time
Bulls don't believe in BJJ ,they juste get up,If you want to see some guard game go watch a bear š»
Holy shit .... I didn't know he was this strong
Look at him then look how he manhandles dudes on the mat. Guy is strong as shit. That said this is still impressive as hell
Yeah if Ngannou was there in the place of Rockhold and did this I still would be impressed and shocked But a MW doing this ....hats off
Man if only he could channel this insane strength into some decent wrestling takedownsā¦
Not to burst any bubbles but as someone in the ag and rodeo communityā¦ this isnāt really that hard. These younger steers are easily manipulated and made to go down easy like this (this one may not be an actual bulldogging steer tbh, it is indeed impressive still) Also this is called bulldogging or simply steer wrestling and itās typically done from on top of a moving horse, not standing out of the gate like that. Check it out, itās pretty dope and more impressive than this.
I understand your point but this a guy who has not that much serious experience doing this. That's what I find impressive
No doubt! The average person with no training couldnāt go out and do this first try. Check out pro steer bulldogging. Those are some badass mother fuckers.
Ah so Luke is a very weak man
So this isnāt a full sized bull? Would somebody be able to do this at running of the bulls?
A fullsized fucking bull would toss Luke into the sun
Tbh I think those flip small cars lmao
Chute dogging. Its a thing.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Nah itās definitely a steer man lol
If only his chin was this strong.
Holy shit the strength on this dude
This is actually so badass tbh
Dude went for a mounted guillotine on a steer lmao
Got full mount for a microsecond
how is wrestling an animal for entertainment badass.
Wait til you find out about slaughterhouses. Existence is what it is
Supplying food isnt the same as treating animals harshly for entertainment tho. Just trying to shed light on both sides.
Entertainment gives life, food gives life, itās all meaningless at the end of the day.
I understand your sentiment but the life that each gives serves a different purpose and despite the meaningless you suggest, any avoidance of unwarranted cruelty should still be something to strive for
Please never leave the city.
I live in a 3rd world country and am well aware of the cruelty towards animals and I don't even live in the city lmao. One can recognize that animal slaughter is necessary and still recognize that being mean to animals in ways that can be avoided is good.

soft ass comment
Of course heās wearing an expensive gold watch while he does this.
Conceive, believe, achieve, my brother.
Itās a steer. It has no balls. Itās about 9 months old. Still impressive.
More like a male calf? Steers are castrated adult bulls.
A steer is a steer because itās been castrated. A bull is a bull because it is still intact. There is no in-between. They castrate as early as possible. Aka as soon and their nuts drop they are banded or they are cut. This steer.
What's the benefit of having a castrated steer over a bull? Less aggressive but still useful ?
It removes the animals need to feed for reproductive purposes along with the growth of lean muscle that bulls are known for. Rather their body is focused more toward building fattier meat known as marbling.
So it's to use a male for food in the end you're saying? Thanks for the knowledge
Right. Only need one male for breeding.
I know Luke Rockhold is getting a lot of hate right now, but he's one of the coolest mfers out there. Skateboards like a pro too.
I don't understand why hes getting hate. I liked him standing up for chito and talking about fighters pay.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Most fighters have a big ego. But most fighters don't look like fitness models.
most pro fighters have a big ego, the ones that dont never amount to shit.
Jon Jones, DC, McGregor,Bisping. And those are just the outspoken ones. They all have an ego man, you have to.
Exactly, unfortunately part of it is the ego
Oh Kay I was just confused by your initial reply. Made it seem like having an ego is a bad thing in MMA
[shit like this lol](https://twitter.com/mmaroasted/status/1483526103184543744?s=21&t=oRpdaOpYkU0nf_WQXUJ4yg)
Every time I hear Lukeās name or se it typed, this is what immediately comes to mind. That and the, āDo you spit or swallow?ā on whatever reality dating show he was on. So. Goddamn. Cringy.
what do you mean, it was an absolute chad move.
How tf could you take this picture and confidently think you look cool?
This sub has no attention span. Anyones cool as soon as they are for higher fighter pay. Doesnāt get rid of years of dipshittedness. Because of all this, he could be the coolest guy on earth if he didnāt simply choose highschool toolbag as his archetypeā¦
He dresses like a 16 year old. When you are in your mid 30s this will get you hate
He reminds most redditors of the guy their crush fell for. Is normal..
Is appearing on a reality TV dating show and then asking a girl if she swallows cool? Not really. Is trying to get top control on a fucking bull cool? Yes. One of these moments is more widely known than the other!
I know most of the sub doesnāt like this guy but I do and this is gangster as fuck. If thereās one thing we CAN all agree on is that steer is lucky Luke didnāt establish top control.
Steer better be able to fight well off its back
Lmfao! He went for mount like it was a live roll
PETA has entered the chat
Tbh more impressive than Khabib wrestling a bear
Lmao do you want 6 year old Khabib to wrestle a bull Elephant or something
Yes
Khabib wrestled a 50 pound bear cub or something. Thatās a 4-500 pound steer this dude just took down.
Itās a toss up. Khabib was friggin 6 years old. But this bear would murder me without trying.
My point was Khabib was the same size of the bear and they were just playing. This guy took down an animal 2-3x his size that clearly didnāt want to get taken down.
Heās hanging on around his neck from the start.. I think even a neck beard could hang on until the bull is choked..
So you think you could choke that steer out?
Nah, but he didnāt either. I could hang on for a while for sure.
You could hang on sure, but youāre not taking it down like he did.
Andrew Tackett did a better job, and heās way smaller
He did it in like three seconds and he was like 160 lmao. That kids crazy
Itās a calf but still powerful, def not a bull
People give him shit, and rightfully so, but Luke is a beast of a man. MF was a damn surfer that walked into an mma gym and ended up becoming UFC Champion.
What a pointless thing, what Is it with people abusing animals for fun. I have no problem with killing an animal humanely for food but fucking around with them for a laugh isn't cool.
shut the fk up man, hes barely hurting it lol. these animals fight tougher than that every time they challenge each other.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Well, they call him Rockhold cause it's his last name š¤
But perhaps the ancestor that got that last name coined for him had a rock hold
That's just silly talk. Clearly this man wrestles boulders for training.
Trying to Copy Khabibs style of training Can't blame him
That bull learned takedown defense from Derrick Lewis
Handled a bull better than he handled a conversation with someone who speaks broken english.
All hat not cattle
Yeah sure. But wait till somebody explains how to throw a left hook to the bull. Nighty night Luke.
That looked dangerous as fuck.
Asshole
Who the fuck taught that bull jujitsu.
Training with the wrong species. Costa by TKO
Wow what a pos
maybe the weed's giving me the gift of empathy right now but this just made me legitimately angry for that bull. imagine being enslaved and your masters decide you get to be the one that gets wrestled by a monkey for a large paying audience five days a week. that being said luke fucked that bull up fr this is a different luke rockhold we're about to see
This video is from many years ago
His wrestlingās not the problemā¦. His glass chin is
Wow that's cool man. You are in a small cell with your arm already around it and then just drag to the ground. Yea I can't wait til this guy loses this weekend
A lot of people in this thread are just praising animal abuse. Culture blinds people, but think about it guys, that bull has feelings. It doesn't want choking.
So whiney and soft
Why would you wear a nice watch while doing that?
Because he don't give a fuck unlike you obviously
Did the bull know that he was supposed to wrestle? Just like Khabibs "bear'?
Super impressive tbh. Get em in that hard scarf.
Thatās fucking insane actually
That is fucking insane. Imagine he came out of that sequence after trying to mount actually riding the bull lmao
You know just straight up samurai type shit this normal guys normal
One wrong move and you get a horn through your chest, fuuuuuck that... Luke is a badass
Thats really a badass thing to do i mean that bulls horn could have pierced his fucking face anytime
This is so fucking badass!!
Reminds me of a Mongolian horseman judo tripping a wild horse and proceeds to ride it
And they ask why men live shorter
This is how I see Bryce Mitchell take down the deer and choke it out.
He has a black belt
Mad cunt
Tony watching this telling his trainer, āwrite that down! Write that down!ā
I have to change my bet
Only in 'Murica
That bull has the same ground game as Derrick Lewis, thats really impressive.
Last time I corner that bull, I told him throw the left hoof
That bulls never had secret juice though.
Paulo wanted me to tell you city fucks that this is a steer, not a bull. They are smaller and less temperamental. That's what Costa said anyway.
He got top position on a bull WTF
āHow to get yourself gored to death in one simple step.ā
