Welcome to the most recent version of Missed Fists. We shine a light-weight on fights from around the globe which have been ignored on this hectic age of day by day MMA reveals.
Normally when I’ve hassle with a fighter who “takes the struggle off”, it is once I’m watching a combined martial arts match. A Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu specialist will get his toes lit up as a result of he decides to kickbox, or an elite striker will get smashed on the bottom as a result of he desires to point out off his newly earned purple belt. As I all the time say, martial arts shouldn’t be about mixing.
However I not often need to complain like this whereas watching a film. naked knuckle boxing match. You might assume that martial arts are already firmly divided, however don’t fret!
I forgot one essential factor. By no means underestimate Julian Lane.
(Thanks a lot for the whole lot @Barrel La Piena For a weekly record of the very best KOs, @Grabaka_Hitman They’ve uploaded lots of the clips you see right here. If you happen to can, please observe and be a part of us on Patreon. )
Bryce Henry vs. Julian Lane
“Let me shoot you, brother!”
Sure, Julian Lane, “Nitran,” the person, the meme, final fighter The legend inexplicably shot in for a takedown within the fourth spherical of his BKFC match in opposition to Bryce Henry, denying himself an opportunity to make a tough hit.
This may increasingly come as a shock to you. He was instantly disqualified.
In basic Lane vogue, he appeared confused as to why he selected L now. As with all issues Julian Lane, I am unable to think about what he is considering right here, and also you should not even strive.
Ashirzhan Tasket vs. Alexei Meshkov
Hey, are you aware what Lane ought to have tried to do as a substitute to win? Throws an enormous punch.
That is what Asirjan Tasket did at Arash Pleasure 123, simply throwing a left hook with little setup. It went fairly properly! Possibly Tasket ought to strive all that curt stuff subsequent.
Beja Hinda vs. Luc Ngcobo
Jason McKay vs. Geller Sondi
From right here we get into the all the time enjoyable (properly, for most individuals) faceplant a part of the evening, beginning with Beja Hinda making Bekin Ngcobo go timbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Ngcobo’s physique took a second to comprehend that it was greatest to fall.
Jason McKay’s knockout punch brought about a close to face plant, however was solely stopped when Geller Sondhi’s leg caught beneath him and adjusted his trajectory.
Lucas Rodriguez vs. Christian Bielski
This had some buildup:
Lucas Rodriguez did the whole lot he may in opposition to Krystian Bielski at Kings Area 3, hitting him with energy pictures to the top and physique earlier than hitting him with a rifle along with his proper hand. Time to get on the mat.
Duval Pierre vs. Kelly Tate
There’s just one factor I’ve to say about this timeless MMA faceplant.
Alan Salamov vs. Derek Campos
KJ Thomas vs. Jesus Castillo
Additionally, on UFC Combat Go, we skilled one thing of a downer as Bellator veteran Derek Campos was on the incorrect aspect with a foul courtesy of Alan Salamov at Fury FC 120.
Campos was an impromptu alternative for Turcon Carson (who, by the best way, has a very nice Tapology profile image), which wasn’t good, so I hope he is compensated sufficient for his troubles. The 38-year-old has presently misplaced seven straight MMA fights and hasn’t raised his hand since 2019.
At the very least he did higher than Jesus Castillo.
KJ Thomas improved to 2-1 with a complete of two:53 in three skilled matches. Very Terrence McKinney-esque coding.
Antoine Chapou vs. Fernando Donoso
Additionally on UFC Combat Go, Antoine Chaput caught a kick after which scored a knockout in a method we have by no means seen earlier than at Samurai MMA 19.
It seems as if the hand reflexively rises as the burden of the foot is launched, including extra snap to the punch. Or is it like what he drew?
Koki Hirasawa vs. Tokumitsu Takagi
Additionally on UFC Combat Go (I swear on the finish), I acquired an incredible submission on the Pancrase occasion in Tokyo.
Hiroki Hirasawa didn’t let Norimitsu Takagi escape wherever and continued to chip away at Takagi’s protection till he scored the Tornado. All the time a horrible submission and appears to be a frequent hit in JMMA.
Rylan Zenidim vs. Freddy Gonzalez
That is it for this week, take care everybody and…what’s it? One other clip? Effectively, I assume it is about 8 seconds lengthy.
From Fighters Cage 4 in Asuncion, Paraguay.
