I just found out that its illegal in my state (Florida) for an MMA fighter to cover the mouth with their hands...wtf thats veteran tactics right there. I feel like fighters are slowly getting boxed in and prepackaged to be all the fucking same. Less tools, less creativity... just less of a fight
Horrible
Totally ok with it.
It's not a 'big' deal but I see why some people would have a problem with it. Next they'll ban foot stomps and fish hooking! It's ridonkulous!
jessiesgotabrandnewbag - If you look at a map of florida attached to the rest of america it looks like a penis, that could be why
Lmao
but that could mean we represent that masculinity of America
Muffler is fine by me, but many ACs have idiosyncratic rules, and it does not appear to do the sport any notable harm.
It's not consistent. You're allowed to choke them out but can't cover their mouths? WTF
How do fighters on the receiving end of it feel? Strikes me as gamesman ship from the outside looking in.
RockTheVote - Muffling is lame anyway. No big deal. Doesn't alter a fight.
True. I think that's the key to Jacksons' success. Teaches all of his fighters that breathing isn't really important in a grueling exhausting physical battle.
