No one intimidated him, we build them like that in South Africa 😂.

Sorry, but I miss players like Bakkies. Respect from NZ

We miss that good man in Toulon

Lot of sour grapes out there.Some fuckers want to dish out but not receive.Bakkies was great at both.Lekker ou Bakkies ons lief you.

What an awesome player.  A true legend.  He may have done some stupid shit but a wonderful man and player.

Bakkies Botha and Jerry Collins were my dream team choice

It is a man's game, look how the game was 50 years ago. Anyone remember the dirty Lions?

Good rugby teams have an enforcer, England had one in Martin Johnson but not for a long time since! South Africa have a conveyor belt of them!

An excellent lock but a terrible bully and dirty hitter. Facts.

That headbutt in the intro video was mad 😂😂😂

Certainly the hardest enforcer ever, but a bit too thugish imo.
It's a miracle he didn't kill anyone with his charges with no feet touching the ground at breakdown ( remember one like this on Gio Aplon ... Was like WTF ? Bro just went flying head on head full speed on a 75kg player on a domestic match )...
An exceptional player though, but his frequent uncontrolled skids are the reason why Eben Etzebeth is basically Bakkies 2.0 : as physical, real hardman, fearless, playing flirting with the border but on the good side of the border whereas Botha was just a loose cannon...

Bakkies was ruthless! Loved how he played dirty and just rough asf! His mentality WHEN ON FIELD was to kill someone. Off the field such a lovely person. As a AB fan i loved it thanks bakkies

Bakkies made all rugby players domestic and abroad be carefully and cautious.
Only durban player Bismarck Du Plesis got his respect. Only player ever to have Bakkies respect

Legend ❤️🇿🇦

He got as good as he gave and didn't complain he just played the game well in a great period for rugby

Goat locks globally,, Frik du Preez, Bakkies, Eben ❤❤❤❤❤

@5:25 in front of Bakkies is one of South Africa's forgotten men who was as hard as they come.

Fav player!!

Footie was great,,,,,, then went professional. I am 60 yrs old, played and worship the game.....it is now a money maker, I cry

He was one of the dirtiest players ever.. just doing the dirty acts once or twice and getting pulled up for it. Let alone all the other bad hits. His action are true and he is trying to defend himself..
