Wow. Bet he didn't see that coming.

[Jay]

That was just funny looked like he was losing anyway and that is just insulting.

Nuts. That guy is more athletic than I am.

completely uncalled for... I am starting to not like the MMA more and more...

That would be one way to by-pass the up kicks that I hadn't seen before.

Throwdown, I've got to ask. What exactally was "uncalled for" in the clip linked? Other than a head first dive to pass the man's legs, what should he have done?

I would tend to agree. Although it was flashy, the flip did allow him to clear his opponent's legs safely, putting him in a superior position to finish the fight.

I guess the difference is although it was flashy and all that if it works then it doesnt matter what a technique is like. Its all about function over aesthetics.

I believe the flip was not needed.. but, what can you do... and a mount would have done sufficient though without the acrobatics.. but thats just me, I have never really been into the MMA thing...
