12 to 6 elbows???

 How are those not illegal?

I thought I heard Herb say "Elbows to the back of the head"

they were perpendicular to the mat which I thought was illegal

parallel is legit right?

 I know, they didnt call it for illegal 12 to 6 elbows. I am saying they WERE illegal and they didnt call it

 Come on, for the 900th time:

 

The ONLY illegal elbows (that aren't to the back of the head) are CEILING TO FLOOR.

those elbows looked kinda suspect...but rogan is right, its the BASE of the spine that they are worried about...

great fight tho

 that was 9 to 3

12 to 6 downward, ala standing. Paul Varelans vs cal worsham style

They were not 12 to 6. It's amazing that so many of you guys STILL don't understand the rules.

ya those were parallel to the mat

 12-6 vs 9-3

 

I really don't get the difference...

orcus said it best. ceiling to floor is a better way of putting it.

 Ah okay, my mistake.

I was saying the same thing at the end when he was mounted his elbows were definitely 12 to 6.

 9.   Striking to the spine or the back of the head.

 


10. Striking downward using the point of the elbow.

clearly illegal. they were 12 to 6. they were to the back of the head. 1 point should have been deducted.

they had arc so - not illegal.
