a little too confident when it came to this fight letting his opponent punch and kick him like there were feathers thrown at him well karma soon comes in to bite him when a second later a well-timed chin punch knocks him clean out [Applause] yoshihisa yamamoto made a big mistake when he taunted mirko crow cope after breaking away despite buying a little time by claiming his eye hurt crow cope still went in for the kill and left yamamoto wishing he hadn't poked the bear oh setting him up measuring him [Applause] where's the gamesmanship now mr yamamoto yeah there's an uppercut krokop looking to shimada you want me to continue here's another one there's another one okay mr yamamoto prince albert peguera spent four rounds clowning around in the ring to put on a show for the audience to begin with it seemed like peguera was playing along that is until he saw an opening that was too inviting to pass down [Applause] david gardner's downfall in this fight was taking the time to say hi japan while he was just seconds away from victory letting his defenses down allowed shinya aoki to get the upper hand and choke him out to take the victory this fighter learned a very important lesson if you're going to taunt your opponent make sure you keep your defenses up the knockout kick was so brutal in fact that it almost snapped the guy in half as he fell [Music] down [Applause] after the first round this tie fighter was feeling pretty confident about his chances at winning even boasting with a pose that all changed a couple of minutes later when he found himself smashed back into the corner fighting to stay conscious next time he won't celebrate too early that is if he can remember the fight of course [Applause] cynthia calvillo was so convinced that she had won the fight she began celebrating as if it was her name that was announced awkwardly she did not win leaving her looking shocked and no doubt embarrassed for assuming she had been the better fighter [Applause] i'm going to come out i'm going to meet you center of the ring first round and i'm going to win the jab exchanges prior to their match george groves would frequently make fun of carl frook claiming that he couldn't mentally handle the verbal exchanges and the hype of a fight he also promised that he would knock out his opponent in just three rounds well it seemed that froke couldn't back up his claims when groves savagely knocked him out [Applause] he's taken another one and another and howard foster has stopped it wow that is going to be controversial this mma fighter's victory was short-lived after he decided to celebrate with a backflip off the top of the cage it's a good thing he had his spine to break that fall elsie could have been seriously hurt [Music] foreign this overconfident fighter rushes the ring telling her opponent you wanted this well as the fight began it was clear that it was she who did not want this if the ref didn't step in when he did those kicks and punches would have knocked the purple right out of her hair get checked body kick ricardo mayorga is one boxer known for his in-fight showboating and taunts often giving his opponents free shots when he did this in his fight against shane mosley however it ended up with shane mosely taking him out mosley had other reasons for wanting mayorga knocked out as at the press conference mayorga disrespectfully slapped his girlfriend's butt in front of cameras and the audience you got two 40-somethings in here they'll both appear weary and maybe and down goes my [Music] his guard down against spencer fisher by raising his hand as if to say that didn't do anything the flying knee that followed was devastating to the already bloodied fighter resulting in a knockout as he woke up wyman seemed like he had no idea what had just happened and where he was this boxer aggressively taunts his opponent before the fight even begins pushing his face into his in an attempt to intimidate him well they do say that it's the quiet ones you have to look out for and that was certainly the case in this fight keeping calm and composed he makes quick work of the cocky fighter who is left regretting the premature aggression foreign [Applause] oh and that concludes our video on 15 moments where showing off didn't pay off do you know of any other moments where a show boater got their just desserts let
