What are the best dirty or unconventional techniques pulled off in the octagon?

[bad mojo]

I can't remember who it was that fought CroCop way back, the guy didn't have a shower for who knows how long. Mirko talked about how he felt close to vomiting every time in the clinch.

The fight doesn’t stop when a mouthpiece gets knocked out.

Lol the referee is supposed to wait for a break in the action. The fighter can’t just pause the fight whenever he feels like it.

Spilling a bag of ice and water has to be way up there

This weekend made me think what if you time a kick to the balls right as the round ends. Then the ref is unlikely to call it and you deprive the opponent of a proper resting period.

Also no one has tried this in MMA yet but what Ali claimed Liston did which was put something on his gloves which got in Ali’s eyes and made him unable to see.

no one said that

it’s intentionally targeting his mouth in that situation with a move that brutal that’s dirty

Bisping could have lost his tongue tough guy

Stinky Matt Lindland? Olympic medalist who wouldn't shower for the week before his fights. He fought Fedor but I'm not sure about Crocop

Well he didn’t tough guy. I assume you’ve watched very little combat sports if you think it’s the norm for fighters to abandon head shots when the other guy’s mouthpiece gets knocked out.

Im pretty sure you cant angle your cut to bleed into an opponents face but I think thats a stupid fucking rule we should get rid of it

Edwin Dewees did it to Gideon Ray on TUF

Unconventional is what Frank Mir did to Pete Williams which I never saw anyone attempt since.
