Post KO shots need to be discouraged

[Trabaho]

All kinds of injuries are ok. But why do it when you know someome is done and give them titanium plates for life in their head. To fullfil your sick desire for blood. Really sick twisted human beings.

 

[Trabaho]

Sometimes it's clear they wanna do it on purpose. Mostly it's to finish 100% in the moment. It does happen where athletes do it just to hit the guy more. Dude in the video was racing the refree. He saw the orher guy lay there not able to defend anything. I feel sorry for him cause it broke his face. To me MMA is a sport.

That will happen as soon as all fighters and fans promise to stop bitching about "early stoppages".

I'm certainly in favor of knees to a grounded opponent and it seems like the rules are slowly softening on that as well, I believe that's a fair compromise IMO.

yeah, I'm definitely for that in some positions; what I'd hate to see is someone's career to get injured from getting knee piledrived/n/?

That's simply the price one has to pay when they're involved in MMA though. Having said that, I think the probability is a lot less than a soccer kick. The KO that Roger Huerta suffered when he fought that one guy (can't remember the name) in ONE FC comes to mind.

What happens when they dont fall down and the ref dont care and the corner seems to have lost their towel?

Early stoppage. He was standing the whole time and the first instance he was dropped, the ref stopped the fight. Didn't even give him a chance to recover.

 

[Skarsgard]

Yeah I meant clear finishes. Where was this guy ever gonna recover here. How much time did the other guy have to notice it running at him.

These types of KOs are rare. Usually, we get the guy that goes down hard and is immediately hitting a double on Dan Miragliotta.

Some people should stick to golf

True, golf clubs are more effective than hitting someone with just your fists

They all know when their opponent is unconscious fully. I've never heard a fighter say "I didn't know they were out" in response to followup strikes. Some of them even acknowledge that they knew it was over but defer to the referee to stop it.

A TKO kind of necessarily requires a sustained attack but the fallen tree KOs with extra punches can be prevented. They just have to be aware of the situation.

They have to want it first
