Good job?

Bisping and Gomez had an interesting perspective on this. Especially as a guy who lost an eye and had his face mangled multiple times.

He said fighting is fucking dangerous. People are trying to hurt each other and itā€™s meant to be ultimate fighting. The average person doesnā€™t have it in them to hurt someone like that and therefore doesnā€™t like seeing it.

I think heā€™s right. I fought the amateur modified MMA stuff with no elbows etc back in the day but I donā€™t have that real fighter mentality deep down and I can definitely admit it

itā€™s a sport none the less.
that kick is a dog act.
no wonder jon jones likes it so much along with pico grams and eye pokes.

Dan Hardy is in favor of keeping the knee stomp.

ā€œIt shouldnā€™t be banned,ā€ Hardy said (transcription via Denis Shkuratov). ā€œItā€™s an effective technique. If we start banning effective techniques, then weā€™re going to find ourselves with a very, very limited rule set. I think that we need to recognize that itā€™s an occupational hazard. On football fields, rugby pitches, up and down, around the world on a weekend basis, people are getting their knees destroyed in the same way that Modestas did. It happens very rarely in MMA. Anybody that says it should be banned, have them name three people that itā€™s happened to, because itā€™s very difficult to recall any time when it actually happens in MMA.

ā€œItā€™s the same as knees to the head on the ground as well. For every now and then when they do land, thereā€™s so many times when they donā€™t. Itā€™s one of those techniques thatā€™s very difficult to land. Itā€™s more beneficial to throw it earlier in the fight when the legā€™s a bit dryer and those kind of things, but itā€™s such a difficult thing to land in the first place, if you can stop a fight with it, then well done. I have no problem with it.ā€

I bet if it happened to one of his buddies he would be saying the opposite.

I just donā€™t get it. If Khalil kicked him square in the dome and koed him, concussing him badly and taking a chunk of his fight career in the process that would be ok!?

But kicking him in the knee and keeping him out for a similar chunk of said career is frowned upon?

When you see a KO, it looks clean and we are numb to the damage being done (very general answer). The person is hit, they go out and fall.

In the case of that kick, you see the damage., Its un natural, and your conscious gor the pain, we hear the scream. I bet half the audience grabbed their knee when it happened. We aren condotioned or as numbto watching those type of injuries. Also this poor guy may never even fight again, and thatā€™s a really shity thing to see for a guy that finally fought his way to the u f c. Hows thus guy feeding his family if he cant fight for at least 1.5 years (if lucky). You donā€™t see that shit happen too often with a knockout. That was a horrific injury I hope the guy speedy recovery

Some guys have been KOā€™ed many times and still come back and have solid careers. Nearly everyone gets finished at some point in their career.

That is common.

Blowing out a guys knee on purpose is fucking dirty. You may end their career with one cheap shot they may never be the same.

Targeting knees in any sport is dirty.

This to me is more like if the rules allowed eye pokes and you finished your opponent by eye poke and blinded your opponent in one eye permanently.

Most people donā€™t try to blow someoneā€™s knee out because itā€™s a cheap move deserving of shame.

Imagine if he did this to your favorite fighter, or to a young Wanderlei or Anderson or Fedor or GSP before they reached their peak.

As it is in other sports, itā€™s always a shame when someone has their knee blown out and their career ends too soon, it would be the same.
