__C_A__ Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Like anything that has seriously made you cringe? I dont necessarily mean a devastating KO, but maybe after the actual knockout For an example, mine would be Brendan shaub vs cro cop The way after Brendan dropped cro cop and he was obviously out, and he then proceeded to walk slowly and menacingly over to crop cop and dropped a completely unguarded bomb to his face and bounced his head off the canvas when mirko was 100% gone before hand Plus the look on schaub's face after the ko when the camera cut to him, dude just looked like a killer Any for you guys?

This was a good thing. I may get attacked for this but I felt the way Jones dropped Machida was a bit off. Still what was he supposed to do I guess.

Me_Against_The_World Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 The TKO stoppage of Condit over Rory bothered me, I can name 50 fights where guys have taken more punishment and the fight wasn't stopped. Excuses bother me a lot too. I honestly don't mind the broken bones, the unnecessary punches on a KO'd opponent, the blood, the tears, the shattered spirits. I think it's part of mixed martial arts, I think it's a beautiful thing. Some guys have to lose their minds to fight to their full potentials, it's the refs job to protect the fighters, the gladiators fighting in the arena....

horrorfan663 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Seeing Lil Nog beat Tito seriously made me cringe. Tito shoulda had that fight in the bag but he came out way too aggressive too fast and got caught. I was pretty sure he was done after that. Also, Forrest Griffin every time he runs out of the cage I just feel so depressed. I remember him being the champ and to see him in his ways now upsets me deeply.

That's impossible to do. Use your brain. When you're already holding an unconscious person by their neck it takes no effort to ease them down on the floor. Those 2 little seconds of effort can make a huge difference for that person's health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory practically wasn't defending himself for a minute. 2. If we are speaking of martial arts one of main characteristics is CONTROL. Beating KO'd person has nothing to do with control, it's the opposite - no control over behaviour, these fighters beat people for other reasons than competitive.

zaksame Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 The common trend that bothers me in the ring,is fouls and warnings. it is ridiculous because the system does NOTHING to help the guy who got fouled.The way it is designed is you SHOULD commit a foul to get the upper hand,all you will get is a warning.BJ Penn used an eye poke to almost get a huge upper hand on GSP and there was not even a warning.Early Rumble looked really good until he got eye poked,then again versus KOS,it created long layoffs and he got terribly out of shape. What makes the whole system worse is that if you are truly losing 2 rounds to 0 ,you have nothing to lose,so go out and foul,if you get away with it,maybe you gain the edge you need to get a finish or KO.

StompGrind Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Some may not agree but foot stomps seem like a cheap and desparate move to me. I would have to disagree. If Foot stomps are cheap and desperate so is checking a kick. IDK i just see it as a viable technique and same relative potential for damage as any other. Eye gouging, biting, or groin shots can be done by anyone quite frequently and all can have a significant impact on the fight. Usually a foot stomp just forces movement in a clinch and allows for changing of weight distribution to set-up takedowns. What about that push kick to the knee? Effective but cheap Just effective. If a kick designed to hyperextend the knee is cheap then so is a hard roundhouse that buckles the knee sideways which can damage the lateral miniscus for example and probably just as easily as the push/stomp kick to the knee to hyperextend and damage the ACL. Cory Hill type leg breaks and Gonzaga type kicks to the nuts. Chieck Cup knees are the worst! IDK that kick Gonzaga landed on Chris Tuchscherer was worse than anything i've seen Kongo do. It was like an Aldo velocity kick stepping in full blast kick to the nuts. GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StompGrind Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 No i don't recall that fight but i remember Gary Goodridge having to change his out against someone. A knee has more of a bludgeoning area effect but a hard inside kick that misses it's mark and is thrown more soccer Aldo style with a deep step and stretch has more velocity.
