Only problem is how confusing it has to be for fighters mid fight. Like if a wrestler can only wrestle in round 2 and round 4 and he gets rocked in round 3 barely knowing where he is, hell he might forget what round it is and shoot for a takedown on instinct while dazed.

Mighty Mouse imo is the most under appreciated legend in the sport , demolished all competition that he come across , defended his title over a dozen times , then went to one and won the title there aswell , but because he doesn’t swear and act like a douchebag he’s looked over

Same reason why Covington became a loud mouthed douche heel. Extremely talented fighter, could have been managed better but because he brought no drama they were going to send him kicking rocks. UFC wants a spectacle. They dont want good hearted fighters anymore. Shitbirds bring in the real money.

Ref only said that because he thought DJ was gonna take him down. You can do a double underhanded clinch in Muay Thai, it’s literally used by smaller fighters to make it uncomfortable for taller opponents in the clinch, and you can sweep from there as well.

Says a lot about someone when they choose to go to sleep instead of tapping!
The fact that the instinct takes over is the real essence of it. Ones it's gone, the love for that sport is also gone. Mighty expected it to be intense but not that overly intense with another fighter especially rodtang casually walking straight up to you. 😂
rodtang was actually bringing a bottle of sweet chilli sauce for the muay round meal if you look closely
Amazing
Mighty Mouse is such a good soul.
It’s a good thing they made it MMA in that second round 😂

to see him walking trough that cage he not give tw fux - Mouse was kinda .... never seen such...I love Rodtang and I love the honesty of Mouse.
That’s why 1fc is so popular, they do shit that’s actually cool and entertaining. Even bellator doing things like tournaments for a title, Grand Prix style is the best way for people to fight for titles especially vacant titles. I wish the UFC did things that this just to mix it up sometimes
