Battle Circus

Sure, that’s two gents voluntarily kicking one another within the groin. And sure, that’s UFC veteran Matt Brown overseeing the festivities, and seemingly having a good time with it.

Look, the Battle Circus of us absolutely aren’t the primary degenerates on this planet to host a superb, ol’ common Roshambo’ing, however they have been daring sufficient to movie this and put it out on the interwebs for all to see, so that they deserve no matter notoriety is coming their method consequently. Innovators, as at all times.

From what I can glean, there are literally some guidelines right here, as you may see that they’re not simply straight toe-kicking one another within the yabos. That is clear shin-to-twins motion, all above board. “The Immortal” absolutely wouldn’t let any shenanigans sully this doubtlessly booming sport.

We are able to anticipate the complete video to be launched quickly, maybe as a part of an upcoming Battle Circus launch. Till then, simply put these clips on loop, snug within the information that, as many commenters have famous, that is nonetheless much less dumb than Energy Slap.

Ku Tae Received vs. Khun Krai

Earlier than we get to the blending of the martial arts, right here’s Ku Tae Received scoring essentially the most thrilling knockout of the weekend at a Fairtex Battle Muay Thai present in Thailand.

I don’t even know the way one thinks to throw a strike like that in that state of affairs, a lot much less with such accuracy. Khun Krai clearly didn’t anticipate it both as he was left flattened for an uncomfortable period of time.

Juliana Otalora vs. Eliana Toledo

Our theme of the week is excessive kick setups (not, uh, low kicks between the legs) and we noticed loads of nice ones, together with this traditional Muay Thai strategy from Lina Narvaez.

She’s simply tapping that toe, lulling her opponent right into a false sense of safety, after which BAM! Ya kicked. Narvaez adopted with ground-and-pound to safe the end, however I wager she may have walked that one off. I do know I wouldn’t be making an attempt to stand up after consuming a shot like that.

Earlier on the cardboard, Juliana Otalora additionally scored a kick end, however of the physique selection.

Verify the replay when you didn’t catch what occurred at first. Otalora simply drives her toes into Eliana Toledo’s abdomen, nearly impaling her with them. There’s a cause to cease combating if I’ve ever seen one.

You recognize what the most effective setup of all is, although? No setup.

Very zen.

Mostafa Abdo touched gloves after which landed one of the vital telegraphed head kicks I’ve ever seen to beat Ibrahim Mahmoud in three seconds. Then once more, maybe the genius of the maneuver is that it was so apparent that Mahmoud assumed there was no method that’s what Abdo was truly doing? That’s four-dimensional chess.
