There will probably be a lot of grappling unless Masvidal is planning on taking in guys that will throw down. Hopefully, soccer kicks, stomps, and knees to grounded opponents are allowed. A lot of the lay and pray works because they don't have to worry about knees or kicks while on the ground. The fights will probably be judged by who did the most damage.So basically Vale Tudo...
Expect grapple heavy fighting with less punches.
Unless they want to limit the ground then this will not work well.
He might as well have started a Lethwei rules org would probably do better
It can be a complete fail or it can be a fun thing to watch, I don't expect it to be high level tho, at least not for the first few events. But maybe they can get in some experienced Lethwei fighters. It might not have to be only bare-knuckle MMA. It can also be bare-knuckle boxing as well and Lethwei fights. Hopefully, they mix between them.
Judging by the marketing around this "Real until Death", I feel like the focus will be on putting on great, violent fights.
