I was hoping these 2 would have met in the GP. Tough win for Coleman, but I would have loved to see it.

You’re criticising the semantics put forward by a person who takes punches for a living. I can’t discount that Wes wrote it, but I don’t think there’s a smoking gun that Mark didn’t write it either (sorry for the double neg).

After re-reading it, here’s how it comes across to me. The publicist told Coleman that he should say something nice to drum up interest in the movie. The tweet was a stream of thought from a guy who’s taken a lot of punches.

The UFC implemented a rule against grabbing the fence to gain an advantage back in 2001. This rule was part of a series of changes aimed at increasing fighter safety and standardizing the sport’s regulations. Grabbing the fence is considered a foul because it can prevent takedowns or help a fighter escape from a disadvantageous position, thus affecting the fairness of the match.

Ok this fight was June 2003 so still a Very fresh rule and not many internet sites at the time would have reported on this.
And it was also Wes’s first ever UFC fight .
Regardless, it’s an Epic moment in MMA history and for that, we thank you @BigWes
