News 12-6 Elbows / Grounded Opponent Strikes(Hands-Down) OFFICIALLY ALLOWED

Makes things interesting mostly because of the bleeding.
Our skulls are built to take those unless I have been lucky eating them.
Can you drop the elbow into someones face to crush their weak facebones? I would not like that.
What are the rules? I refuse to read them myself. I want them Sherdog translated.

Fuck Jones. Guy still broke the rules. It's not like people were arguing Gordeau's win over Tuli should have been overturned to a DQ once they put in the grounded fighter rules
Ya I don't understand the Jones justice leaguers here. Changing the rules today doesn't change the fact that he broke the rules then. And he's lucky he doesn't have more DQ's, NC's, point deductions, and majority decision losses, if we're being honest.
 
I have a feeling Belal will 12-6 elbow Leon the Peon into bolivia, then Leon will go on a press tour crying for a rematch, saying the only reason he lost was the rule change.
 
For those saying Jones should drop the loss, that can't be how it works. He broke the rules while it was a rule. At one point groin strikes and hair pulling was allowed but those aren't losses now afterwards. And what about claiming that a fighter shouldn't have lost because another organization or commission would have allowed it? It's big special pleading to call for Jones to get a loss reversed but not even think about anyone else under the same umbrella.

example they make marijuana legal now Biden said a few weeks ago trying to expunge simple marijuana possession… so yes there are examples that it could work that way.
