wow, so it actually works? now I'm the stupid idiot
 
That's just embarrassing lol
 
Isn't that illegal in MMA? It attacks the spine, right? I guess twisters do that as well, though.

Strikes to the spine are banned. Slams and holds that target or affect the spine are allowed.
 
Ken Shamrock included the Boston Crab as one of the techniques featured in his book "Beyond the Lion's Den", mentioning that it's one of the few pro wrestling holds that might actual work in a mma fight. I didn't think I'd even see someone attempt it, but I guess it was only a matter of time.
 
Awesome. I saw that earlier today and came here to see if there was thread about it. I figured someone else would have seen it too.

I seem to recall someone trying one against one of the gracies or another jiu jitsu guy in Japan, and being ankle picked/swept.
 
No way, the boston crap works in MMA.
