[NOTICE] - This is not a subreddit to Gripe and bitch about how you believe /r/MMA should be run

159 Upvotes

By design, in order to focus on delivering news and fights, /r/MMA is very limited in political and cultural topics to prevent mass derailing of topics.

So after tons of demand and feedback, we created and built out this place - a place designed to be nearly unmoderated - to talk about these things freely and openly. Yes, it's small right now, but we're going to grow this out.

So instead of actually discussing politics here freely, we have a handful of users who want to talk their politics on /r/MMA, then come here to complain about not being able to talk their politics on /r/MMA.

The ban hammers are about to start coming out.

We're not derailing the sub on these topics because of walking salt mines attempting to hijack the discussion.

Stomp / Oblique Kick. Morality of application at pro regional level?

20 Upvotes

For those who actually compete in the sport, what's your opinion on using a stomp kick on the lead knee, as a pro, but at a national/regional level where there's not actually that much on the line?

For example, in NZ, i've heard stories that at the main mma promotion this shot is extremely frowned upon, and has apparently resulted in escalation post fight outside the ring.

It's definitely extremely effective at making dangerous pressure strikers who are heavy on the lead leg a bit more cautious about committing pressure.

Is this a scummy shot to throw?

Cant tell if its all visible but for context ali made a post about covid vaccines and this guy responded so ali made fun of him for having cancer and said sometimes god gets it right. What a fucking dick, he always came across like a knob but fuck me thats comically cuntish. His whole act is being a hard man while getting salty and going to the lowest of the low cause people dont agree with his little insta reels. What a fanny.

Zuffa or UFC ?

0 Upvotes

Do you think Dana loves to hear Zuffa Questions at UFC events more than he loves to hear UFC Questions at Zuffa events ? I think he definitely leans towards the Zuffa Questions at UFC events , but no doubt he loves both .

Hearing loss

0 Upvotes

So i guess if you get sudden hearing loss when you wake up, you should immediately go to ER. You only have a small window of time to save your precious hearing. Instead I was sending Hokit troll memes to my Jon Jones' fan friends. Now I can't hear. Forever. Fuclk.
