Hot Take The Ultimate Eyepoking Championship

[swarrrm]

It only took 2 cage grabs, a back of the head shot, and nut shot, and an eyepoke to take a point.

 

[swarrrm]

3 more cage grabs, no points taken

 

[EndlessCritic]

I'm honestly surprised they took a point. There's been tons of egregious cases with no point deduction.

 

[Bowel-forged Stool]

Stand. And bang.

 

[Fact Checker]

Kennedy fought real scummy tonight, good for Herb to take a point on multiple eyepokes but he had some negligent misses after that.


Those cage grabs in the third prevented Buchecha from advancing to dominant position and I was rooting for Kennedy.

Idk what fighters expect if they're not selling the fouls. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You need to get that pop and get the crowd on your side to pressure the ref into acting. Some of these guys could take tips from Raja Johnson they have so little idea how to work!

 

[ChrisBN]

How many warnings do you get for an offsides, facemask, false start, etc in football? None, you get a penalty. Dirty hits, the league may fine the guilty party. You foul- Instant penalty.

In ufc you get the first 5 fouls free. And even then , "taking a point" is redundant if the offender blinds the opponent and can then dominate the fight as a result.

Eye pokes should result in 20% of the pokers purse going to the victim. That would end it.

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

theyve only had like 20 years since PRIDE dissolved to fix the fucking gloves already.

which they said they were going to do.

which they said they were going to do recently.

this is entirely on the organization, for not stitching gloves in a way that doesn't allow a hand to fully extend.

i believe the glove problem, is part of a larger betting problem.

what if you are a wing chun slap block master and then your style gets cucked by gloves that handicap the very core if your proven to be very effective in MMA style? Also what if you are a master of the "HIGH YAAA" karate chop style and then a new glove redesign comes along and cucks yur entire style?

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

Instant point/purse deductions would inevitably fuck someone over unjustly. But it shouldn't take 4-5 fouls to lose a point either.

The rules are fine as is, the guys they pay to enforce those rules however..
They need to do a weekend lock in at the apex where they can address the lack of consistency over pizzas and punch.

Then you're probably TFerg. May have to try throwing sand

also all this talk about triple A athletes never coming to MMA n how they go to stuff like NFL instead. How do you expect to coax the triple A athletes over at power slap to switch to MMA if slaps are banned by default if you can't fully extend the hand? Bas rutten said the only reason ppl dont palm strike in MMA is because ppl are stupid. How can we expect somebody to be smart if you can't properly palm strike?

I see why they just gave up after those new gold gloves were a bust.

MMA is just unscripted rasslin, a bar brawl brought to you by draft kings.

 

[swimba]

Just let me poke bro

 

[bobafett]

Just don’t throw fouls in fights. It’s one thing if you throw an inside leg kick and accidentally hit a guy in the pills, and another thing if you’re actively jabbing at a guys face with your fingers extended. We all know what you’re doing, you ain’t slick

 

[Cope123]

who cares it was a bum event
