Missed Fists: Fighter almost drowns opponent to win ridiculous pool scrap


Welcome to the most recent version of Missed Fists the place we shine a lightweight on fights from throughout the globe which will have been ignored in these hectic instances the place it looks as if there’s an MMA present each different day.

Apologies, however I’m going to want all of you to place your UFC Vegas 100 occasion planning apart for a second so you possibly can take a look at this week’s newest randomness from the preventing world, particularly Yatcha Membership being at it once more.

(Huge thanks as at all times to @Barrelelapierna for his or her weekly lists of the perfect KOs and submissions, and to @Grabaka_Hitman for importing lots of the clips you see right here. Give them a comply with and chip in on Patreon should you can.)

In the event you’re not accustomed to Yatcha Membership, its complete gimmick is placing on fights in probably the most off-beat locations you possibly can think about. Youngsters’s play areas, underground tunnels, parking garages, you title it, the membership has in all probability thrown two dudes in it to punch and kick one another.

Of their newest experiment, fighters Chung Soo Lee and Kris Kirsch made their manner over to a wading pool to do battle and the outcomes are nearly what you’d count on.

Going for a takedown on this setting is extremely good. In the event you’re the one being taken down, doing something moreover instantly making an attempt to rise up off your again is extremely not good. Due to, you recognize, the entire being submerged in water factor.

As soon as Kirsch is down, Lee doesn’t even need to do a lot apart from sloppily grapple as his opponent tries to not swallow a gallon of water. The one technique to even contemplate on this struggle is ensuring you’re on prime after which pushing the opposite man down till they faucet or drown. Like, bro, why are you even going for ground-and-pound there?

Let’s toss this idea within the “by no means once more” pile.

Watch the entire struggle beneath and extra from Yatcha Membership on their YouTube channel.

Damien Anderson vs. Gabriel Wanderley
Richard Mayol vs. Dallas Dodd
Artur Minev vs. Cristobal Ibanez

With no matter that was out of the best way, let’s retreat to the cozy confines of UFC Combat Move, the place human beings have been KO’ing and submitting one another the old school manner.

At Fury FC 98 in Houston, Damien Anderson scored a heel hook submission that may make Ryan Corridor proud, profitable a tangle of limbs to power the faucet from Gabriel Wanderley.

Not going to lie, this will likely have simply been an excuse to say Ryan Corridor. Get effectively and struggle once more quickly, sir.

Richard Mayol (to not be confused with British comedy legend and Drop Lifeless Fred star Rik Mayall, might he relaxation in peace) kicks off a cavalcade of proper hand knockouts with this precision shot to the temple of Dallas Dodd.

You possibly can pinpoint the precise second the place Dodd’s physique shuts down and have been it not for the cage wall stopping him, he would have fallen flat again into a pleasant nap as a substitute of getting to soak up that additional shot.

Earlier on the cardboard, Artur Minev wanted simply 28 seconds to queue up his proper hand to blister Cristobal Ibanez.

Stuffs the shot, instantly corners his opponent, after which ends him. Chilly effectivity from the Ukrainian light-weight, who improves to 4-0 as a professional.

Stefano Paterno vs. Jorge Bueno
Konstantinos Ntelis vs. Simone Patrizi

Over at Cage Warriors 179 in Rome, the highest 2 fights of the evening delivered with-you guessed it-a pair of highly effective proper hand knockouts.

Stefano Paterno continued his current sizzling streak, cracking Jorge Bueno for a classy walk-off end.

That’s six straight wins for Paterno, together with three wins inside the space since returning to Cage Warriors. At 29, the Italian’s finest days are nonetheless forward of him.

Greece’s Konstantinos Ntelis made positive it was a brief evening on the workplace as he caught an advancing Simone Patrizi with an absolute hammer that Patrizi stepped instantly into.

There’s your “When Your Legs Don’t Work Like They Used To Earlier than” KO of the Week.

Mauricio Partida vs. Brandon Uruchurtu

Zipping over to Lux Combat League 47 in Mexico Metropolis, we go from decrease limb shutdown to complete physique shutdown.

Mauricio Partida refused to let Brandon Uruchurtu simply chill towards the fence, so when he noticed a gap to strike, he took it after which some. That’s a monster knee up the center and Uruchurtu doesn’t simply go down in ache, he seems to freeze up utterly. Wouldn’t shock me in any respect if he cracked a rib there.

Emily Ducote vs. Yulia Ostroverkhova
Victoria Leonardo vs. Amanda Torres
Shanna Younger vs. Pamela Boveda
Magdalena Czaban vs. Jessica Hope Holmes

Hopefully you tuned in reside on CBS, however in case you didn’t, Invicta FC has you lined with all of the highlights from its newest present in Kansas Metropolis, Kan. It was a giant evening for just lately launched UFC vets, with Emily Ducote, Victoria Leonardo, and Shanna Younger all selecting up spectacular finishes.

Of the three, I’m happiest for Leonardo, who was coming off of two tough knockout losses to Wang Cong and Natalia Silva. Throughout her UFC run, Leonardo developed a status for being on the flawed finish of spectacular highlights, so for her to get again within the win column and rating her first end since 2020, that’s received to be candy.

Simply two fights into her professional profession, atomweight Magdalena Czaban has a submission win she will be able to crow about after locking on this nasty guillotine.

If the UFC ever will get severe about implementing the 115-pound division, Czaban is one to control.

Emin Huseynov vs. Olzhas Zhakypbekuly

Let’s finish immediately’s globe-trotting in Almaty, Kazakhstan, the place Olzhas Zhakypbekuly ended up along with his face within the flawed place on the flawed time.

No matter Emin Huseynov had carried out previous to this, he had Zhakypbekuly biting exhausting on a faux earlier than launching into his spin kick. Zhakypbekuly will get low, will get his palms up, and nonetheless finally ends up consuming all of that one. That may’t really feel good.

Full Alash Delight fights can be found to look at without spending a dime on their YouTube channel.
