Title: Mma Three Man Fight Planned In Virginia
Post by: *ChuteBoxe* on August 25, 2008, 10:42:10 AM
There is an MMA show tonight at the Masonic Lodge in Norfolk, Virginia. Every fight on the card will be an MMA three-way last man standing fight. It's MMA billed as "San Do", a Japanese discipline. They fight in a 12-sided ring with walls at a 45 degree angle for three three-minute rounds. When all 3 fighters are in the fight, you can't take the fight to the ground. You have to remain standing until one fighter is eliminated. If and when a fighter is eliminated, the two remaining fighters compete under regular MMA rules.

Sort of like the old battle royales that former Heavyweight Champ Jack Johnson in the early 1900's around Galveston, Texas.

This should be very interesting

What's stopping 2 of the fighters coming up with deal to knock out the third one first, then fight against each other? The concept is interesting, but I see mainly rigged fights in the future if they have more of these.

I agree, they might as well have tag team MMA (although I think this has been done a few times), or straight 2 on 2, that would be some shit.

Straight 2 on 2 would be excellent. I would enjoy that, but alot of action to keep your eye on.

Sort of like this but without the blind fold. Even the ref gets served up.
