If that guy would have thrown a punch, then there is no way that Anderson would have been able to counter. Amirite quirkasaurus.

[/ QUOTE ] oy oy oy -- what a fight... beats me... i had the big tall black guy from the get-go... but a back-elbow strike to the nose?!?!? egads... my only thoughts... -) they both seemed like counter-fighters. i wish the fight would've lasted longer, and seen more aggression. -) when the little guy was tied up in the corner and getting nailed with all those knees, i was thinking, wrap him up, lock up those legs, anything... but it looked like the black guy was stronger, and maybe going to the ground wouldn't've helped... -) all things equal, height is such a huge advantage. -) i thought he ~was~ trying to throw punches!! -) that little guy was one tough dude... he took a lot of punishment before he finally went down.

[ QUOTE ] that's cool. I train mma and our stand up is mostly western boxing + thai kicking techniques. Karate stuff seems less useful to me for mma, but from a pure stand-up kind of game i guess it could work. Also, if you ever feel really brave, do it with knees vs. a good muay thai fighter. You most certainly will not be so eager to bull rush in after that.  [/ QUOTE ] QFT. I also train some MMA and have trained in Muay Thai for like a year and a half. Knees freaking hurt. Its always the low ones that hurt the worst in my experience. A well placed knee to either the thigh where the muscle splits or the bundle of nerves on the back of the tight will deaden your leg and make it hard as hell to rush or put much on your puches on that side.. Congrats on getting in there and fighting though. As a side note, do you think Karate would be effective in MMA as an aspect of standup. Seems like a couple guys have a background in Kempo and other forms, but I havent ever trained in it to know if parts of it work (or are already used) [/ QUOTE ] Thanks a bunch. I like my nose too much to want to risk getting kneed to the face, I'll tell you that much... I like karate a lot, but i certainly don't like the reliance on "home-run-or-nothing" style kicks. I like my style: which includes 50/50 karate kicks, and American boxing hands, uppercuts, hooks, jabs, and augments that with back-knuckle strikes, ( spinning back fists ), arm traps, etc... Also, I don't recommend a "bull-rush" into any kind of fighter. But I do recommend an aggressive approach, especially in training, simply because counter-fighting is so much easier.
