Robert Malcolm Sapp

Charming and charismatic fighter Bob Sapp, whose height reached 195 cm, and weight - 159 kg, is a professional in mixed martial arts, actor and former player in American football. By fate, his sports biography was connected with Japan, where after a contract with well-known promotions, including K-1 and Rizin Fighting Federation, the athlete became quite a successful showman, now performing in the Pro category.

Robert Malcolm Sapp, later nicknamed the Beast, was born on September 22, 1974 in Colorado Springs and, after spending his childhood in the sports capital of America, from a young age fell in love with football. He first played for Mitchell's children's league, then earned a scholarship and continued his career at Washington State.

There, the young man won the award annually awarded to the best players of the student conference, and in 1997 put his own candidacy for the NFL Draft. Bob's 69th pick was chosen by the Chicago Bears. For unknown reasons, he signed with the Minnesota Vikings, but because of doping was dismissed and forced to pay a fine.

Unemployed, Sapp took desperate measures and for a while was a funeral home employee, digging graves and carrying coffins, but in the 2000s the former footballer decided to get back in uniform and went to the gym where kickboxing was taught, as well as other types of contact struggle.

In 2001, Bob acquired the qualities necessary for the fighter and signed a contract to participate in the World Championship Wrestling, and then moved to the competition venue called NWA Wildside in Georgia and earned the nickname Beast because he acted as the hero of the film Tarzan.

After the tournament closed, Sapp went to Japan and made his debut in the Promotion New Japan Wrestling, which had the status of popular competitions and organized fights category Pro. Playing for the team of athletes led by wrestler Antonio Inoki, the newcomer held a series of successful matches and caused genuine interest in the opponents. In mixed martial arts, Bob was able to resist Yoshihisa Yamamoto and Kiyoshi Tamura, and in kickboxing he twice defeated an athlete named Ernesto Host.

In 2004, the athlete won the IWGP heavyweight championship, and then unexpectedly for many appeared at the event Korakuen Hall Hustle. In the demonstrations, Bob in the "Villainous Army of Monsters of Generalissimo Takada" demonstrated the talent of the showman and the skill of the fighter, but was defeated by Wataru Sakata and could not bring the winning streak to an end.

At the same time, Sapp competed in the K-1 competition in Japan and appeared at the World Grand Prix. In 2005, he triumphed in Osaka and brilliantly fought Musashi at K-1 PREMIUM 2005 Dynamite!! And then the relationship with the organization broke down, and the fighter signed a contract with Hustle, thanks to which he continued his career and reached the semifinals of the DREAM Super Hulk Grand Prix.

Until the late 2000s, Bob entered the ring against frankly weak athletes and, contrary to expectations, lost most matches. And when after the loss to Russian Alexander Emelianenko journalists called Sapp a "boxing pear", in an interview he said that the main thing in the fight - the spectacular side.

Indeed, the fights with the participation of the Beast were distinguished by a certain choreography and charm, which came in handy on the set of the comedy "All or Nothing", and from that moment the dark-skinned athlete annually replenished his own filmography, participating in the films "Conan the Barbarian", "Amazing Power" and "Blood and Bone".

The competition also remained an integral part of Sapp's life, but he no longer won high-profile victories. Only in 2018, in a duel with former sumo player Osunaarasi Kintaro Bob in the 3rd round overcame the "look" of the opponent, and the press called "circus" the way the athlete won.

Almost nothing is known about the athlete's personal life, and photos on social networks do not answer the question whether he has a wife.

However, once in the Japanese press there was a dubious article about an alleged friend who for 6 years was subjected to violence and wanted compensation as an aggrieved party.

Now the professional fighter has disappeared from the public eye and does not disclose his own plans for 2019-2020. But the press reports that he has a valid contract with the MMA organization Rizin Fighting Federation and the opportunity to compete in the Rizin 19 and Rizin 20 competitions, which will be held in Japan at the Saitama Super Arena and Osaka-jo Hall.
