Eye poke instant disqualification

[GraafschapDTCNL]

I am chilling as I smoked a little bit of weed, so forgive me if I stupid. But I think this would be smart: instant dq with an eye poke.

Eye poking is extremely risky. Who would wants to lose his vision. I will tel you, I dont. You cant have fighters poking each other in the eye.

Secondly, you would have a high number of diaqualifications at the start
But watch it go down as fighters get accustomed to the rule.

It is this simple

 

[Lee Danger]

nah, i don't forgive you.

 

[generalyum]

I too am chilling but I feel like viewership would plummet

 

[RoadKing Custom]

You should stick to chilling and smoking weed.

 

[Lucaspmc]

I'm also smoking but maybe your weed is better than mine, I wouldn't come up with such a bad idea.

Fighters would exploit the system right away.

 

[IDGETKTFO]

instant point deduction would be better

[RockyLockridge]

man, the amount of fights we'd lose

Fighters best not stick their fingers in the face of opponents then. Problem solved.

TS finna fake getting “eye poke” damage all the way to a UFC title…

 

[b00tysweat]

instant point deduction would be better

obvious solution

 

[jeff7b9]

There it is.

The knee jerk "we need to DO SOMETHING!!" classic over reaction solution which would be worse than the problem it was intended for.

 

[Leinster Rugby]

Should be a point deduction on condition that the fighter who got fouled CAN reasonably continue. If they can't, as in if the fight gets stopped as a result of the eye poke then you can look at a dq.

Also is it time for video playbacks? Then the degree of intent from the guy who fouled could be examined and maybe a dq might be justified.

Also I fucking love weed. Helps me sleep, helps with stress, makes boring things more interesting... Good on ya TS.

 

[Davey Grant]

Stop smoking weed thats a moronic take.....

People seem to forget the only reason this sport exists is the entertainment value. You start DQing people in big fights and no one is going to want to watch anymore. Right or wrong, that's the whole reason a lot of people are pissed that Tom opted out.

I don't know what the answer is. Rogan's idea a long time ago was to put full gloves on fighters to blunt the impact of fingers into eyes but the complaints of that is it would lessen the feel when grappling. The UFC wouldn't even give the longer Pride type gloves a long look before switching back..

Also I fucking love weed.

 

[Hymen Crusher]

No auto 2 point deduction then the fight really gets going because the cheater needs to start fighting

 

[mkess101]

Automatic point deduction for the first one. Second one, the guy who does it gets big fluffy winter mittens duct taped over his 4 oz gloves. and has to fight the rest of the fight with them on.

 

[ninja boot]

If we're going to come up with outrageous means of resolving this i'd like to enter my idea that all fighters should be forced to wear Pit Vipers to protect the eyes.

No. Just develop eye lens/socket protection which will not protect orbitals, etc...just eyes. Or change gloves... Or simply have video ref and normal ref, video ref checks fauls and calls point deduction and DQs... - U anyways have 5 min pause possible after faul...and video ref can check this shit instantly. Like whole world see replays but refs cant check it, shit like this is nonsens in 21 century. - Flopping/embelishment should be punished aswell. with long suspensions and fines.

Lot of fighters simply distract with open palm or control distance, etc... Sometimes u simply do this in same moment as other fighter try to close distance and "disaster" happens.
