Herzog just tossing Ham is some of the funniest shit I’ve seen in a while.
Jesus Christ, Kevin Randleman really was a monster.
Bro this needs an nsfw tag 🤣
Damn allowing knees in ufc would make grappling insane every fight
Who is that getting handstand kneed by Randleman at the start?
Petr was disqualified because he didn’t scream- “Pride Never Die”
Saito vs Majima’s ending knee sequence started with [Saito punishing Majima’s takedown attempt with a soccer kick](https://youtu.be/Pva1NLamsic?t=454) which I love
Pride never die
60 seconds of why the grounded knee rule will neverrr change
Nice video!
Missing a classic with Heath Herring vs Hirotaka Yokoi. Absolutely insane knees. Scary.

Wow Randelman’s 1-2 knee is so aesthetically pleasing.
Really wish these knees were allowed. It would make positions like side control so much more damaging plus the whole grounded/not-grounded stalling tactic would be eliminated.
Honestly agree with DJ, these should be allowed as they give a much more realistic example of what can happen in a bout. It seems the ground game is favoured towards BJJ nowadays but can you imagine how much it can change if knees were brought back in? I don’t see how it’s any different from catching a knee while standing in the clinch.
Yeah this is brutal not to sure i’m a fan of them and I can totally see why the UFC banned them. There’s something extra brutal about being pinned down unable to cover up and getting your shit caved in by a trained professionals knees.
Grounded knees should absolutely be allowed
Grounded knees and kicks should be legal.
in comparison Yan’s knee didn’t look too bad lol
PRIDE NEVER DIE
Kicks and knees to grounded opponents makes the sport better, there’d be so much less stalling on the ground
I’ve watched this sport for almost 20 years and some of those were ducking brutal.
Bring back knees and soccer kicks please. Thank you
This is like proof why they are illegal. Every fighter getting kneed here looks completely murdered afterwards.
I would be for legalizing grounded knees if the refs weren’t so goddamn incompetent
I love the combat skirts in Japan lol
Grounded knees and no elbows made grappling more fun. I’m not against elbows but when somebody has to create more space for punches it opens up room for the bottom person to work.
NGL, you could make a highlight vid for pretty much any type of strike to the head and have it look as brutal as this.
Not saying they should be legal, but I’d rather catch grounded knees than a high kick to the temple or a spinning heel kick to the jaw any day.
Chad pride rules vs Soy ufc rules
Pride never dies!
gonna pretend to ignore the toxicity of this sub right now to drop an obligatory “Pride Never Die”
hope this big stink means the rule gets changed soon but not holding out hope. Calvin Kattar took how many shots to the head in one night? But one knee while he’s on the ground or a 12-6 elbow and he’s basically being murdered by a thug on ABC right? Obviously these strikes have brutal power but so do hooks, so can uppercuts or jabs or headkicks or shots from the thai plum. Glancing phantom blows from distance can kill a person in freak circumstance but we draw a line at these weird points arbitrarily because we had to appease fossils like John McCain who were lobbied against the sport when it started overtaking boxing.
Call me a salty Yan fan, I am one as much as I am also a sad Aljo fan. But this rule as well as those against 12-6 elbows should not exist. They’re fucking gross to look at and I understand why most people aren’t questioning it, plus it’s irrelevant what we think anyway since it is still the rule we have to follow and they had to follow last night. But I think they should be allowed at some point in the future, as should spikes on the head but maybe I’m a just bleed psychopath. Just seems to me like rules that protect the fighter are rather dumb when they’re literally just short of killing each other anyway and some of these things are legit defensive tools practiced by some of the martial arts we’re supposedly mixing. But I guess if we let those things go why stop at head butting, hair pulling, eye poking or groin striking. I mean… I won’t go there UFC 1, but… it’s all really born from old school gentleman’s agreement anyway.
The weird ass fucking sport of boxing and its long history left it’s dna in mma (pause), and we have the same sorts of questions they’ve always had about what should be allowed and what’s dirty and whats not. One person’s dirty is another person’s crafty. If you want to watch grapplers grapple without knees to the head why not just watch grappling? if you want to watch people fight dirty and kick each other in the dick why not just watch street fights on worldstar? If we’re protecting fighters why not go full regalia with headwear and fatter gloves and shin pads and etcetera and so forth? What even is MMA anyway? Is it as simple as striking + grappling? There’s plenty of different sports and rulesets to consider for both forms. Seems to me like the whole reason this sport exists at all from the Gracie Challenge days and before is to see which style works best like Bloodsport or Enter the Dragon, fighter safety is determined by the fighter’s ability, not the ruleset. The format had to compromise that spirit in order to beat the movement against it being legal to even do which still holds in a lot of places despite those strides. Idk man but what a bummer. Take me back to 2001 Saitama Super Arena. it was simpler. and there was no twitter or reddit. You had to turn the microwave and the housephone off to scream-type at strangers on a chatlog, now I’m writing essays no one will read from the cancer brick I can carry in my ass pocket.
I think they should be legal tbh. pride rules are fun
