    The guy that got stopped by nub strikes should retire.

    Anyway this guy tried out for TUF 13 and apparently wow'd Dana with a bunch of slick submission attempts in route to an omaplata finish.

    Still, I hope they don't put the guy on the show....he has one fucking arm...:bangh:

    To be fair, he's got like 1.5 arms. :lol:

    If he got armbarred on the half arm side would they still call it an arm bar? Or a Nub-bar?

    Good for him but keep him off the big promotions. It would make mma look bad if you had some guy pummeling a cripple like that.

    Instead of circling away from the power hand, you'd just circle away from the only hand.

    That's funny right there. I would definitely try for a head kick to the nub side.:shadow:

    I'm pretty sure a prime Tyson, with only one arm would still kick most average guy's ass...

    I have to agree with this. I would even venture to say that if today's Tyson lost an arm he could still KO your average joe in any bar across the Globe.

    Joe Frazier agrees.

    Is this your way of calling Frazier a " limited fighter"?

    Just wait until he starts telling you how Aoki could submit most people with no limbs and half a penis.

    He seems vulnerable to right hands.

    That is amazing. Anyone who has ever wrestled can imagine how difficult it would be to generate that type of balance,leverage and torque without a leg.

    Holy cow.
