Legalize head stomps & soccer kicks!! No more guard pull/butt scoot strategy!

Title says it all. Make it a fight. I've always felt this way, and they can also get rid of the whole stupid no 12-6 elbows rule.

Tell the AC and get back to us.

Why not throw knives and chainsaws inside the cage while we at it?

Athletic Commissions make the rules. Petition them if you really want it.

I think people might getting injured while throwing chainsaws.

You should be ashamed of that Pride logo in your av with a response like that.

Change your AV if you're going to make posts like this.

Idk about soccer kicks, as a fan I love them, but I see why they might be better left not in the sport. But knees to a downed opponent should 100% be allowed. It just makes a mockery of the sport in some ways when one fighter should clearly be getting kneed in the head and yet the other fighter can't inflict any real damage. It makes the sport a lot less realistic. Especially when they put one hand on the mat on purpose. I'd love seeing someone savagely knee someone who does that and just take a dq.

There was guard pull and butt scoot on PRIDE

I agree with the stomps and kicks but 12-6 elbows can kill someone.

Hey look!
He's guard pulling!!!! In Pride!!!!
Yeah, we know what happened on that fight but... But... GUARD PULLING!!!111

That will never happen b/c it looks too bad to the general public and it doesn't take much skill. Anyway can stomp or soccer kick someone in the head.

I'd pick knees to the head of a grounded opponent. That would make people pay for a sloppy or stuffed shot. If you shoot in on a guy, he stuffs you and you just kind of turtle up knowing he won't take you down, there is no negative for a poor shot. If you take a poor shot on a guy, he stuffs you and you end up on hands and knees with your head facing the guy and he can knee you in the dome, you are gonna think about it a bit more.

Obviously it would still happen but the incentive is diminished greatly when the opponent can use their feet to bash your skull in.

How about this while we're at it

I'm fine with it, it would halt a lot of stalling.

Thats bullshit, not any more than any other technique already allowed in MMA. Rogan has gone on at length about this and I tend to agree.....they are no more dangerous than any other elbow strike.

MMA has gone from a 'Dog Fighting' Esque public opinion 20 years ago... Banned in almost all states...

To a household sport on broadcast television. I think we can live with the rules.

Is this the old Def Jam PS2 game? That was good times....

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Hell yes TS. And while we're at it, tell them to also allow
