Elbows were banned in Pride. All the people saying "no way.it's a fukking fight," ok then lets have stomps and soccer kicks to downed opponents, I mean come on, it's a fukking fight.
Fedor agrees with you. Tko (cut) endings are frustrating. Especially when the cut fighter is otherwise fresh

Who brought back this turd of a thread.
True but I guess the point is either it's all ok or none of it is. Elbows are in many ways more dangerous than kicks because the physics behind that amount of blunt force concentrated into the point of the bone of the elbow is lethal. An elbow from top control is no more or less dangerous than kicking downed opponents
Ban elbows, allow knees to the head on the ground.
Do not ban elbows but allow knees to down opponents... It will quickly end lame takedown attempt and make people move after failed takedowns...it would truly take some of the advantages wrestlers have...
Elbows aren't even a real factor in MMA. Jon Jones and David Loiseau are the only 2 fighters I can think of off the top of my head that used them enough to make me pay attention.
