yeah i seem to recall them doing something like that before with martial arts only this is for mma

interesting, i hope it doesnt backfire on them though, even in the video they hit by tito is more than what would cause a concussion so im not sure mma needs that kinda press ;)

Post by: Bluto on February 03, 2008, 06:43:45 AM: Alright I finally got around to watch it. Good show!

Bas is a beast.

I was a little disappointed that they didn't spend more times discussing the KO "button" and the chokes. Comparing for example a straight punch to the jaw compared to a hook to the side for example.
