Welcome to the most recent version of Missed Fists. We shine a lightweight on fights from world wide which were ignored on this hectic age of day by day MMA exhibits.
I’ve at all times believed in security first with regards to martial arts.
It might be an unreasonable view given the character of the enterprise we have been dedicated to, however you may hardly ever see me complain about early stoppages, and I will by no means criticize a fighter for tapping out for an assault (umpires, take part there!).
However on the latest Lions Struggle occasion in Manaus, Brazil, we noticed the tapout of all tapouts, and I don’t know what to make of this.
(Thanks a lot for every part @Barrel La Piena For a weekly record of one of the best KOs, @Grabaka_Hitman They’ve uploaded most of the clips you see right here. When you can, please comply with and be a part of us on Patreon. )
Mateusz Kocama vs. Michelle Pantoja
After correct fighter introductions and glove faucets, Michel Pantoja shocked everybody by dropping to his knees and instantly tapping the canvas to cease his bout with Matthäus Kocama. Referee Dioclemar Neto did not truly concede the faucet immediately, so Tapology says the official stoppage time is seven seconds, however the fact is, it is a one-second combat.
In keeping with TMZ Sports activities, Pantoja defined that his unusual lack of efficiency was resulting from accidents sustained in a latest bike accident.
Perhaps subsequent time I will let everybody know? Do not make everybody do that dance simply since you’re too proud to get out of a combat. Pantoja more than likely confirmed up for the paycheck, however for those who’re a promotion, you should not must honor your contract beneath these circumstances. I do not wish to argue in opposition to fighters getting paid…however not if they are not able to combat!
Anyway, I do not assume Pantoja is a foul man, however this was a uncooked deal for Kocama who got here out victorious beneath essentially the most doubtful of circumstances, and might be fairly annoyed that his time was fully wasted.
Brock Adams vs. Cameron Stephens
Ending in 1 second after which being knocked out in 8 seconds appears nearly banal, however right here it’s anyway.
On the Fierce FC occasion in Value, Utah, newbie light-weight Brock Adams stored his sport plan so simple as potential, throwing proper fingers time and again till he obtained outcomes. Adams felt prompt gratification when he made an insanely fast cease on Cameron Stephens.
Ryder Volz vs. Devon Yonkin
In an newbie match at BCM: Brawl on the Mall 5 in Ontario, Ohio, Ryder Volz (unbelievable identify) shook off a entrance headlock earlier than hitting a cannonball uppercut.
Poor Devon Yonkin crashed headfirst into the mat with that punch. it hurts. He’ll get up with a sore neck and surprise why he appears like he simply obtained a Stunner from Stone Chilly Steve Austin.
Dinesh Nain vs. Yoshiteru Kubomura
There isn’t a higher caption for this than the half-dead Frank himself.
“India has McGregor.”
Dinesh Nain improved to 7-2 as knowledgeable together with his “notorious” knockout win on the Shooto occasion in Fukuoka, Japan. Certainly, the argument could possibly be made that he meant to take goal at his opponent, Yoshiteru Kubomura, a 43-year-old with a disappointing document of 7-11-3.
Hmm, however that is a reasonably cool spotlight, is not it?
Bilali Ijibula vs. Liu Jianing
Zi Hao vs. Wu Xihen Muhamaitibai
In the course of the Jue Cheng King Struggle Evening 120 held in China’s Shanxi province, the combatants specifically Bilali Ijibulla and Ji Hao had been capturing our bodies.
Ijibullah landed a spinning backfist that was surprisingly clear even for himself, and Tzu lined up Wu Xihen Muhamatibai and introduced him down with emphasis.
Moses Mokar vs. Bryn Guababa
For Moses Mokar, touchdown a picture-perfect proper hand wasn’t sufficient.
From EFC 135 in Sandton, South Africa:
A walk-off win there would have been a lot cooler, and sadly referee Weekus Swart wasn’t in a position to bounce in in time to forestall a very vicious follow-up punch. Nevertheless it’s good to see Bryn Gwavava stand up like The Undertaker proper after that.
Diego Sanchez vs. Luis Martinez
Diego Sanchez is again! In newbie kind!
On the Actual Struggle League occasion in Atizapan de Zaragoza, Mexico, one other Diego Sanchez used the tenacity of his opponent Luis Martinez to attain a surprising knockout.
Martinez took a spin kick to the physique and adopted with a left hook as if nothing had occurred. Robust son of a gun. It might appear mild, however it’s extreme.
Yusef Esenbayev vs. Troy Inexperienced
Jonathan Haynes vs. Dupree Stewart
On UFC Struggle Go, we have the eye of prospects as 22-year-old welterweight Yusuf Esenbayev wanted simply 24 seconds to complete Troy Inexperienced and win the vacant title in Urijah Faber’s A1 Fight promotion.
Even on this brief clip, you may see Esenbayev’s refined expertise. He’s presently 5-0, with all of his wins coming by first-round knockout or submission. There is a lengthy method to go, however there isn’t any doubt we’ll be listening to much more about Esenbayev sooner or later.
Early on the cardboard, Jonathan Haynes confirmed nice timing with a proper counter that turned Dupree Stewart’s legs into jelly.
Rattling, that counter was so clear that it knocked you, me, and Dupree out.
Urijah Faber’s A1 Fight 36 is on the market for replay on UFC Struggle Go.
Dimitri Joev vs. John DeJesus
Justice Torres vs. Ricky Romo
Additionally on Struggle Go, Dimitri Gioev completed off Bellator veteran John De Jesus with a brutal rush at Fury Challengers Collection 16.
With this loss, De Jesus’ document improved to 18 wins and 14 losses. Meaning there at the moment are 14 males who’ve had relationships with De Jesus.
In the meantime, Choose Torres ended the present with a bang.
Actually, that slap felt extra like a thud. Or growth. Or wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww that’s what I imply.
Paul Elliott vs. Regan Upshaw
In case you did not know, ONE Championship nonetheless hosts MMA matches. And gives a few of the greatest knockouts seen anyplace.
An incredible instance is Paul Elliott.
You understand a head kick is nice when each you and your opponent crash into the canvas. It was like a professional wrestling finisher.
Regan Upshaw truly raised her hand to dam a kick, however as we noticed at UFC Baku, generally a rock simply smashes by means of paper. Oh, and by the best way, it solely took 6 seconds.
