Dirtiest Tactic Seen in Modern UFC?

I Can't find the original where BJM explains it but here is Rogan explaining what him and BJM talked about.


Start at 2:30

Pay attention to what Joe says
"Big John said if he could do it over he would've made Yoel stand up."
BJM ordered Yoel to stay on the stool which helped Yoel but wasn't done intentionally by Yoel. Yoel just profited from BJM's instructions.

Keep in mind Joe is explaining what Big John told him to Kennedy himself.

Can you answer why everyone tries to act like Yoel did something dirty but no one brings up Kennedy blatantly cheating which led to the situation in the first place?

That's why I gave Romero a pass. He got hurt off Kennedy holding his glove illegally and punching him. That gave him a pass in my book.

Shoulder crank is legal and fine, so is the oblique kick sir.
 
Most of those are legal. That just depends more on your moral compass. Fighting is dirty period, it's about legal and banned that should be the issue.

It's like armbars/kimuras/americanas aren't viewed as dirty but a standing version of it is? LOL

I just said this too lol.
 
What do you shermanos think is the dirtiest tactic seen in the modern UFC?
Conor grabbing khabibs glove? The abhorrent glove grab olivera used?
I do not want any submissions of tank abbot cock punching a boxer in the Sands Casino back in 1995, thanks.

If we're talking dirty, have to go with Palheres, holding on to subs too long.
That's a bitch move.

 
Has anyone mentioned greasing by GSP yet?

Went up against the one guy who might've been better at grappling than him and went into it greased up like he was about to get sauteed.
“At the end of the second round I watched, and then another cornerman who I believe was Greg Jackson, he put the Vaseline on Georges' face, and then he put his hand on his back to do the breathing thing they always do,” Kizer said. “As soon as I saw that, it looked like there was still some Vaseline on his hand. Not a lot, but still some…
“We wiped [St. Pierre] down very, very hard,” Kizer said. “And even after the end of the third round, even though there was no touching of his back with Vaseline, we still wiped him down again after that round, too, just to be safe.

As for Silva rubbing Vaseline off his face and onto his body before the fight, Kizer said he noticed Silva has done that in the past but admitted this time it was "more blatant that we expected."

Keith Kizer said he made sure GSP was wiped down repeatedly just to be sure he had no advantage.

"I call it like I see it and [the win] just looked dirty to me. [Silva] greased himself again. After the Vitor [Belfort] fight I saw him grease himself. I wasn't very fond of that first one. He did it again, blatantly. And then the shorts grab. And then finally the knee, it ended up legal, but it looked like bad intentions. All that together, it just wasn't very champion-like for me. I want to see a respectful champion out there. I know emotions might get high with all the crap talking, but you gotta keep those separate and gotta fight clean."-Luke Rockhold
 
You mean Yoel following BJM's instructions to sit on the stool? Or do you mean Kennedy grabbing Yoel's gloves preventing him from blocking and landing damaging strikes because of it?

I can link BJM saying Yoel did absolutely nothing wrong and was just following his directions.
Dumb that this comes up over and over on here, when Kennedy is the only one that committed a foul.
