GIF Request - Chris Clements Ninja move

[Beast God]

Slick move!

Right? I imagine they'd be incredibly effective if used properly. I mean shit, Wonderboy's leg buckled and he fell on his ass.

Someone who trains needs to know more, speak up!

Great GIF first of all. Mostly that move isn't used for several reasons
1- Requires incredible timing
2- You can be caught in a bad position if you miss
3- You can blow your own knee out if you throw it wrong
4- It requires a lot of energy for a very low damage potential

Only time this was ever thrown at me (in sport jujitsu, not mma) I just skipped back about 1/2 a step and then dived on the guy before he could get back up. Looks awesome. Way too risky.

Cool move, but not much to gain from it, you might trip the other fighter but by the time you get to him (recover from the trip) he's already back up.

Thanks for gif, missed that fight.

I had high hopes after that move thinking my small bet on him would be worth it. Then the collapse began.

Probably one of the coolest techniques I've ever seen successfully executed in the cage.

Pretty sweet move, cant wait for his next fight, seems exciting.
