Dude, have you ever been kicked in the head while on the ground? I'm not proud to admit it but I got my ass handed to me fighting one day while under the influence and while defending myself on the ground (doing poorly due to my inebriated state) dude soccer punted me in the temple and damn near knocked me out with just that one strike. I'm lucky I wasn't seriously injured. It's without doubt the hardest I've ever been struck and I would hate to see it brought back into the ufc.

Someone would eventually get killed or seriously injured if headbutting and head kicking downed opponents were to be reimplemented. Even when pride was around I found these rules in poor taste. The fact that you want to see this brought back makes me wonder about your mental stability...


He's pretty fucked up

Wouldn't mind seeing soccerkicks allowed.

Afaik, the only reason UFC didn't want them is because they looked too brutal. Hence making it harder to sell the sport to the public as not being a bloodsport.

Getting kicked in the head is pretty rough, no doubt. But getting flying elbowed on the ground is no joke either (Hendo vs Bisping anyone?).

They wouldn't allow certain things because they couldn't get it sanctioned due to people like John McCain

Yah.
Anyway, it wasn't because it was too dangerous that soccerkicks were outlawed. It was because it was felt that it would negatively influence the public view on the sport, making it harder to have it regulated/legalized/...

Hit him with a number of 12-6's. Afaik Hamil is still alive.
If the ref didn't DQ Jones, then he'd have stopped the fight anyway as a TKO, most likely.


What about the spinning kicks then? The guy on Tuff took it pretty badly, the one Barboza threw was brutal as well.

Disallow those kinds of kicks?

Just saying if jones was allowed to throw 12-6s they'd be a lot more frequent and lot more brutal lol
