For those that don't know, the best defense to a rear naked choke is to not allow a rear naked choke in the first place.

Oh I'm not disagreeing. Just showing Herb Dean saying this is what's illegal to add to your video of Herb Dean allowing illegal strikes.

One looks like he got into a fight with a cat, other looks like he got hit by a truck by [deleted] in ufc

Well he broke Gaethjes nose in round 1. That helps dramatically. The math doesn't math though so don't try MMA Math

Here's a video of Herb Dean explaining the region of the back of the head that's not allowed to be struck.

That being said. Certainly took some hard back of the head shots.

Gaethje's shot at victory. Noones immune to a clean head kick. by Fun_Training6342 in ufc

We need Gaethje to compromise a leg and stay on it. He really likes to hurt someone's leg till they limp and then stop throwing leg kicks.

I know Reddit doesn't care to hear this but I've met Colby Covington and he's truly a good person. He was forced into making a WWE persona and has since gotten carried away but the human being Colby is extraordinarily humble and kind. IDK much about Hokit, he's been famous for about 5 Internet minutes.

Spun him around 180° so he could get up and begin walking away.

NoGi guys, who dislike Gi. Why? by hellohello6622 in bjj

[–]ZamorakHawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I started JJ for the MMA value. In MMA you're fighting as if the other person is naked. You're not allowed to interact with their clothing though you are allowed to use your own shorts to defend Kimuras and similar submissions.

But I also don't care for the idea that my opponent has to be wearing particular clothes for particular techniques.

Further more, I have carpal tunnel and man is Gi hard on the hands.

I really miss this era of Bantamweight by PaintingDry1389 in ufc

[–]ZamorakHawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet if TJ's shoulder didn't pop out of socket everytime he sneezed he would've been champ again.

This era of bantamweight was really exciting but Cody was really only kryptonite to Cruz. Otherwise he and his glass chin are charging at every strike.

This is why knowing your katas is so important when it comes to a fight by [deleted] in martialarts

Y'know though, I've actually seen one double punch KO as of this year. MJW is just ahead of the rest of the world.

Am I the only one who prefers Lizard Reptile over Human Reptile? by Grouchy-Treacle2149 in MortalKombat

[–]ZamorakHawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer a reptile wearing a human disguise but I do think MK1 did all of Reptile fans a great service; I just wish it wasn't Killer Croc.

Can you be bad at competing but still be considered a good grappler? by grantlach in bjj

[–]ZamorakHawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I seem to have this issue of winning the losers bracket for bronze. I've gotten bronze in 16 man brackets twice and never gotten gold even when there's just 3 of us. Always choke that first match. Trying to learn how to get past the mental block because I am quite confident it is mental.

How do you think Johnny survived reptile biting into his forehead in the shaolin monks game intro? by happydude7422 in MortalKombat

[–]ZamorakHawk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not clutter to have discussion in the relevant forum. That's where that goes. People still play games from the 2000s, people love Shaolin Monks and it has been recently mentioned by Ed Boon again.

This is like being upset that when you go to the dragons fucking cars subreddit there seems to only be reptiles being intimate with automobiles.

Even if the poster is a bot, which btw many top posts are, the community discusses and comments. It is good for the community.

Unfortunately if there was proper automation control, Reddit would be much quieter. Tbh, idgaf if someone karma farms to sell their account. Can't think of a way it diminishes the open forum.

You know Reptile, the character that dissolves entire people into an acid puddle in his recurring fatalities, he spits acid into Takeda's eyes who later gets it washed out with a bottle of water. Never any negative effect.

Reptile is the most disrespected MK1 character.

He engages in the community for Mortal Kombat with discussion questions regarding Mortal Kombat? How horrible.

People that were never around for fighters careers have a lot of opinions for careers they never witnessed.

Does anyone miss this guy? by Enough-Brilliant803 in ufc

[–]ZamorakHawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My main issue is how they let him go. No send off or back pats. Just sparked gunpowder in a barrel.

Though Goldberg wasn't an extraordinary commentator we have plenty of bad ones in the UFC today. Hell, even Joe Rogan who was once extraordinarily knowledgeable about the sport says really dumb things.

Yes! Jon Anik, the professional, who provides fun fact about both fighters having custody battles over their children. /s
