Neck strikes

[BORCAT]

Only the second to last punch was to the back of the head, that entie fight was some ridiculous stuff.

The last punch ?

There was at least 4. Cain should of been DQ'd .

Does it become legal on Jones' fights or something?
Watch the Belfort and Shogun fights guys.... he never gets a warning or anything for his throat shitz...

It's illegal to target the throat, but the refs basically say accidental/incidental strikes are ok. If you push a guy's chin up and target the throat, you're in for a world of shit though.



2 inch strip from the crown to the neck, entire back of the neck, and the spine. plus the throat. You can hit the side of the neck all day if you want. If the fighter being hit moves, and that movement causes a fighter to get hit somewhere illegal, that's not a foul.

edit: changed the video because the first one I posted didn't mention the throat.

Traditional Dojos do incorporate some striking and thrusting into their training but they are illegal in competition and not part of the grading system.

I know. Like neck and throat strikes... But like I said no chopping lol

Would the Randleplex be considered spiking? I can't believe that didn't seriously injure Fedor's neck.

i thought that spikes were allowed in Pride/JMMA.
see Sapp vs Nog for example.

yeah, it was a spike. but PRIDE allowed spiking.

No, just the throat.
The neck is a good target for a kick.

I was KOd by a kick to the neck in an ammy fight, so trust me, it works.
