Rick Rypien is quickly gaining a reputation, but not all NHL tough guys have yet realized the the extent of his "This Little Guy's Hands Of Stone." fighting ability.

Ok sure he is a Canuck, my favorite team, but this is un freaking real. He is the best pound for pound fighter in the NHL. Incredible balance and strength, plus throws with both hands right or left.

TALE OF THE TAPE

Rick Rypien 5' 10" 180 LBS Vs. Borris Valabik 6'7" 245 LBS

Watch how 6' 7"Valabik gets in his face, looks down at Rypien and Say's are you freaking kidding me little man.. You wanna go with me?

Roberto Luongo said: "I have never been so pumped up by a fight. Valabik had no idea what he was getting into."

Fight TWO

The Flames bring up tough guy Brandon Prust from their minor league team, Brandon wants to make his mark in the NHL so he challenges "Little Ricky Rypien."

Watch how Rypien goes from Natural South-Paw to right hand shots... And the freaking upper cuts at the end of this... I love this kid's heart.

Boogaard would get the crap kicked out of him if he took on Ricky.

Hell.... if Godard can nail Boogaard so hard that Boogaard did not know where he was or which penalty box to go into....

Then Boogaard has to leave that box to go see a trainer in the locker room....

Well.... Then Ricky would punch him into next month.

Formo.. My friend. Who I greatly appreciate as a member of this forum.

Your right as rain. Thank God it was not little 5' 10' Ricky.

That would have been a Roberto Duran 20 second K.O.

I practiced with hockey people once. Once. I used to both roller and ice skate so I'm pretty fast and some hockey guys tried to get me to try out. Will never do that again. It's been almost 30 years and I still remember it like it was yesterday.

See in football, you usually know when you're going to take a hit so you can adjust accordingly. In hockey, it's just you're going for that stupid puck and BAM! The next thing you know, you're peeling yourself off the wall and the puck is way over there. How did it get over there? How did I get here? Why do my ribs hurt? How come I can't get a full breath of air? I hate this game.

Will all due respect, hockey is awesome. I used to watch amateur hockey years ago and had a blast.

As for those videos, the first one kicked ass. The second one boring. But the first one is a must see. One thing you can learn from Muay Thai is if the guy is significantly taller than you, get him in the clinch. Get his head down. He's off balance. Once he got his head down and controlled, then start pounding away.

Good stuff, RP.
