Says the guy whose never trained a day in his life.

It's originally a quote from Samuel Goldwyn "the harder I work, the luckier I get"

I wouldn't say it's a thechnique but I love the foot stomp. I dont see it used nearly enough. A couple good ones deliverd can break a foot. I hate seeing guys stomp the toes. I would stomp across and down over the top of the foot. Little bones break easier and there are little bones up there. I wonder why we don't see this more often.

I don't like it. Not sure it should even be allowed. Bad sportmanship.

I agree here, it's like poking the eyes, or pulling hair.

Agreeing with Blutroll made me feel dirty, I need a shower.

I prefer striking....but I do enjoy unique submissions.

For instance the heel hook Chonan put on Silva. That was insane!

That go-go plata Diaz put on Gomi was the coolest thing I've seen in MMA.

This armbar Renzo puts on Sakata at about the 3:30 mark of this clip is the most technical I've ever seen in MMA. I had to watch it a few times to see exactly what he did.

gogo i pull off alot during nogi training (not full on mma) rubber gaurd is still kinda new to mma and you have to have some degree of flexibillity, but i would like to see it more. its just a diff ball game when one day your rolling nogi to pull it off compared to tryin to defend punches and pulling it off

anaconda choke i love but once again in order to get it off a sprawl they have to go for a single leg and you have to have your arm DEEEEEP for it to work, im talkin your shoulder has to dip pretty much past side of his head in order to reach all way around and grab the bicep. if its not deep when you roll it will b more of a neck crank and not full on choke.

also flying traingles lol........ i would like to see more of these from a trapped kick

and i love the reverse and upside down triangles, or traingle,straight arm submmission

im a big bjj guy but I LOVE STAND UP

Far side armbar for me.

Why is every thread a pissing contest between Bluto and someone.

its b/c mma is the new 'dj' craze... so everyone starts gettin upset about who really trains and who is keyboard warrior etc.

i really could care less, i train, i dont compete. maybe one day, and i dont tell anyone that i even train. for some reason now adays with teh popularity of tuff crowd it just gets me into trouble outside of the gym...

i think its just more ego than anything (the pissing contest) lol

The good old days of Bas Rutten's liver punch knockouts!

Bluto · « **Reply #41 on:** September 28, 2007, 04:23:37 AM »

haha gotta love bas

YES... TO THE LIVER!

i've seen a few fights live that ended with the liver shot, most of the time people dont know what happend they just dont see someone being knocked out like that...

I love to see elbows thrown from the stand up.. When the other person is back to the fence.. I think they should do this more.. I don't understand why they don't.. AND I LOVE THE FOOT STOMP!!!!!!!! 100% better then a knee to the ribs or leg in my book.

Bluto · « **Reply #43 on:** September 28, 2007, 07:51:55 AM »

im not so much for elbows as they stop fights early. where's the fun in waiting for a fight for 3 months and then it's stopped 2 minutes into the first round because of a cut.

i love these two and i train them hard on the bag, i will say this. to me it is a very awkward thing to do, push off clinch and swing elbow in the right motion where your fist basically goes into your opposite arm pit and down, feels very strange to me still so i can generate huge power with it yet. but practice makes everything

Try not to throw it as you are stepping out.. Throw it short and stepping in.. So don't let go of the clinch with the back hand. Hold the head or bag and let your striking hand release and then throw it stepping in.. Short elbows still hurt and do damage... That's how I train to throw them while standing..
