Default quadruple amputee MMA...

I thought amputee **** was strange but this is a whole 'nother level of awesome. Can't wait for the youtube video of the match.

That kid has a lot of heart. It'll be interesting to see what happens. Having done a little jiu-jitsu and boxing myself, I don't really see how he stands a chance unless he can get the other guy down and keep him there. But hey, his wrestling record was quite impressive, so he obviously is more dangerous than he looks.

Is this for real? I mean, I feel for the guy, but to try MMA? I wouldn't fight him only out of fear of hurting him!

I'm not man enough to strike a quadruple amputee.

It's a lose/lose for the guy fighting him. Win-great, you beat a quadrepelegic. Wanna medal? Lose-WTF is wrong with you?

Kind of like when they started letting girls wrestle in high school here. At first it was a novelty, then they started winning. Try living THAT one down. We had a girl place second at state this year in wrestling.

The girl wrestlers were the whole reason I joined the team.

Hese got heart, but what can he do? He can't do any submissions on you, and he can't do flying kicks...

All it would take to end the fight would be throw him into one of the posts like Austin Powers did to Mini Me. I'd feel bad doing a body kick to him. Would be like kicking a sand bag.

But again, he has heart for trying.

On a side note, he is making his debut in Auburn Alabama, not far from me. I might go see him if it weren't for the fact that AU is enemy territory.

The article said he couldn't be kicked as he is always considering a "down fighter" due to the no knees thing.

Figured as much. I don't think he should be allowed to fight though. Can't kick him, and I'm guessing throwing him like a rag doll will probably not be allowed somehow... so I can't see him fighting for very long. And an even bigger question, how do you submit him outside of choke? He has no limbs to tie up. So its either knock him out or choke him out. Not a fair fight for either fighter.

I am such an evil man... I just cracked up so bad from this mental picture of 2 guys, no arms no legs, laying in their corners of the ring, bumping around and yelling at each other. Am I the only one with this kind of sick humor?

The man has hearth, no doubt. Credit to him and free shrink sessions for anyone that fights him.

He'll have his day in the spotlight. It probably won't go well. And that'll be it. He is going to get knocked around unless his fights a midget. Even the smallest of fighters will have a better reach. Ah well, we'll have to revive this thread when the youtube video makes it rounds.

That's amazing. I do BJJ and other stuff and fighting this guy in a BJJ match might actually be pretty challenging. Rolling with people of different body types can throw you off. He's pretty differente.

Kind of a boring fight.
