Should kissing and talking to the opponent/his corner be illegal?

[biscuitsbrah]

I love a little bit of taunting and showboating in mma, but I think kissing might take it a little too far. I’m not sure, I don’t think it’s brawl or riot worthy but I’ve seen it happen for less.

Talking to the opponent or the corner should be illegal because that is actually a brawl risk. Especially in boxing because the corner could just hop in the ring and we have seen that happen before.

Also if you don’t ban kissing that means they could try to kiss you on the lips and that should definitely be illegal

Only the attractive men should kiss each other, nobody wants to see ugly guys kiss.

Also what are your favorite showboating moments. Obviously the max one calling himself the best boxer in mma, dodging 4 punches, and then hitting Kattar with a right is legendary.

And Cody mocking Cruz the whole fight while piecing him up was good.

What other moments did you like?
Thiago Silva playing the bongos on Vera?
Randy Couture slapping Tito’s ass while he’s upside down on a leg lock?
Izzy humping costa?
Poatan memeing on Jamahal?

Merab kissing O’Malley’s back has to be up there for me lol

I dunno I see people here using words like woke and other coolster buzzwords..... pretty sure those guys would prefer that the man kissing would remain.

I think the Romero/Luke one was fair game.

No it should be legal as long as you are also caving the dudes face in. It shouldn't be legal when you are cruising to a decision via takedowns and control.

It should be legal, it’s a psychological fight also.

The world is evolving, the rules must adapt to a new demographic.

Only in WMMA.

Scissoring and kissing will become the male equivalent of Dagestani grappling

Maybe it should be banned...especially kisses on the lips (although kisses on the forehead or the top of the head seem innocent and wholesome...I would encourage lots of that mid-fight). That being said, its hard for me to get too worked up over lip kissing as long as dry-humping and oil checks are still allowed.

i bet this is suga posting this...... testing the feeling of the fans so it doesn't go down as cringe when he files a sexual assault case tonight

I love showboating because I have trained kickboxing and muay thai for a gazillion years and I love to have fun in there. No disrespect, just fun.

Cody making Cruz look stupid was awesome.

Pre-UFC MVP showboated a lot against cans.

No it should not.

 

[HHJ]

NO

If merab wants to act like a moron, just let him. Cos if he loses because of that, it would be fuckin hilarious.

The kissing thing was a bit whatever but nothing to halt the fight over.

They should also allow brief blowjobs.

Sexual harassment is my base martial art, I hate having to call it "grappling".

Open the rules. Let me kiss and fondle.
