A nice spectacle I suppose.

Ha ha looks similar to when I spar against capoeira.

wierd how the capoeira guy constantly breaks rythm when he is about to engage.

He pretty much KO'd himself, wasting all that energy kicking empty air

I studied some capoeira too. It's a beautiful art, good for movies and dance, not good for this.

That was kind of one sided. And not one cartwheel.

Nice to see that. It was suprisingly giving the kickboxer more trouble than I had imagined. "More trouble" being more than no trouble at all anyway.

I find the kickboxer a total asshole. You don't go hitting the guy on the ground with such hate in a competition. In real life if your life were at stake ok but in the ring thats just disgusting

uh, its an mma fight. you keep hitting til the ref pulls you off.

if doing mma means being an asshole then I'm happy I don't do mma. It doesn't mean that because you can break the other guys neck you should do so. People should respect other fighters more especially in competitions
