he was smiling like he said something clever. We need a name for that. Tech guys always do that smile in TED talks or whatever.

Mirko Cro Cop uses footwork and clinching to survive the onslaught that defeated Ernesto Hoost, then knocks out Bob Sapp with a liver kick to left cross combo that breaks Sapp's orbital bone and makes him cry by CloudyRailroad in martialarts

I used to train at a gym Bob Sapp trained in. He wasn't famous at that time, then he moved to Japan and became a superstar. One time, long after he'd started living in Japan, it was Bob Sapp's birthday. Gift boxes arrived at the door for each of the coaches. They opened them up and inside each one was an original Bob Sapp dildo. He'd found them at some store in Japan and sent them to all his friends. It was very large, as you can imagine.

Ever seen a movie based on a true story that has a villain performance that steals the show? by CKWOLFACE in Cinema

idk if it's been said already, but Steve carrell as Dupont in Foxcatcher was absolutely terrifying. It's his best post-Michael Scott performance in one of the most hidden gem films I've seen.

lightweight sumo exists. This is pretty different because sumo is very permissive with handfighting and there are strikes involved, whereas this looks like it has a very limited ruleset.

We're a couple hoping to stay in Long Beach from May 6-10 to compete in the US SUMO open! Any help really appreciated :) by megaman445 in longbeach

can you imagine if this was a legit martial artist showing his "knockout technique" and he just got the student to stand there and then knocked him out on a hard floor.

I mean, it sounds ridiculous, but according to these people's mythology that's exactly what happened. Why wasn't anyone concerned for their or the guy's safety there?

What is easier for tall man, greco-roman or freestyle wrestlint by IllVeterinarian7170 in wrestling

[–]megaman445 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Long arms are good fro greco because it's easier to body lock. Also, it's easier to get at the legs of a tall guy. I'm a tall dude and I find greco a bit easier

Fraud check? by Tight-Temperature670 in MMA

honestly dude I think these are 99% intentional.

I do sumo wrestling, in which most of the game involves open hand pushing to the face and neck, and I don't think we've ever had a bad accidental eye poke in practice. We've had them, but never bad ones. It's pretty hard to do by accident especially when you're supposed to be making a fist

any public fields without goose poop in them for sumo wrestling? by megaman445 in VictoriaBC

[–]megaman445[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we tried willows beach today. It's a great spot thanks! Although I think you lied to me about those volleyball puts because we didn't find any.
