Solid point!You'll never go 100% against your brother if you aren't a sociopath or there is some serious bad blood. Will always be sparring at most.
All due respect, butI wouldn’t do it.
Growing up, my brother took a few beatings on my behalf. I had a big mouth, but I was puny. So, he’d have to finish shit I started.
Thankfully, I sprouted about 10” when I hit 17.
Nope. He’s my hero.
I shouldn't just limit this discussion just to brothers, but also sisters. I know at least a couple of girls who are sisters that can't stand each other and would love nothing more than 15 minutes in a cage with them.
The Lauzons did it for free. Joe Even held on to the choke after the tap at the end.
I truly believe Joe Lauzon would’ve done it again and enjoyed kicking the shit out of Dan for money.
I wonder if it happened in the finals, then they would have gone more full out. The million dollar prize is in the line. Also, I think they found it disrespectful by pfl to do that right away, so their ambition for a good fight wasn’t as high. If they both made it to the final, bigger stage kinda deal. I wonder if that would have changed their motivation and ambition going into the fight. Compared to a regular season fight for points just to get into the tournament.But can you imagine if they had that kind of fight in the finals bigger mess to clean up
Joe Lauzon beat his brothers ass in a backyard MMA fight.I don't understand why there is this unwritten "brothers shouldn't fight each other in MMA" rule. I mean, I have two brothers and we used to beat the crap out each other as kids. Why not do it for money?
You think the Diaz brothers never beat each other up as kids? The Emelianenko brothers? Hell, the Noguera brothers were twins, there wasn't any "big brother advantage" there, you don't think they fought?
I love my brothers but if a MMA organization approached us and said, "You guys want to jump in the cage and fight?" I think we'd look at each other and say, "Well...we used to beat the hell out of each other, why not do it now for money?" Especially since the money would be really good, how many PPV buys do you think Diaz vs. Diaz would get based on the "brother vs. brother" aspect alone?

There's a difference between having spontaneous moments of rage and having a preplanned, pre-meditated event where you're going to try to hurt as much as possible, possibly kill, your own sibling.I don't understand why there is this unwritten "brothers shouldn't fight each other in MMA" rule.

If I remember correctly, their issue was that they got put against each other immediately instead of just letting them get to the finals. PFL was pretty clearly trying to stack that tournament for Shane Burgos.They make the guy fight his daughters godfather and lifelong friend/training partner and wonder "wtf why didn't they go all out" instead of putting them on opposite sides of the bracket. Real B-League shit.
Yeah, what actually happened is they went behind the barn and pound each other.It's always amusing when some idiot declares that he and his brothers used to "beat the shit out of each other." No, you didnt.
