UFC influenced NSAC to ban knees...Pride should...

[OdinPatrick]

PRIDE should now use their influence to get knees - to head, on the ground legalized.

Shamrock and the UFC influenced the NSAC to ban knees to the head of a grounded fighter, PRIDE and Fedor should get them to unban it, since now UFC isn't the only dog in town.



Pride should also convince them to allow stomps to the body while a fighter is on the ground, and to allow shoes and Gi's.


Please PRIDE, spread some of that Yakuza money around and get better rules.

I realy really hate the NSAC for not allowing kicks and stomps. Why not allow them. pride has allowed them for over 5 years now and there has been no major injury.

[Bounz]

and yet this will never happen

You can't have stomps or knees against the cage. Someone will get hurt real bad with their head jacked up against the fence getting stomped and kneed.

Yeah Ken pissed me off when he stooged out Pride like that.

Why would the rule change never happen?

Some states banned MMA altogether, and now are letting MMA fights happen.

So MMA went from being 100% banned, to being allowed in some states, why would you think NSAC wouldn't change some rules?

California tried to ban chokes because it was dangerous, but petitioning them stopped them from doing so.

wow ... yeah, it's the UFC's fault.

It's not like the NSAC has any say in their own decisions.

What influence does PRIDE have?

I wish knees were allowed. Kicks and stomps to a downed opponent I could deal without. Kind of cheap IMO.

Millions of dollars of revenue being brought into the state of NEvada.

Plus The foreign fighters will now pay 30 percent taxes, when if they fought in Japan, that wouldn't have happened.

If UFC can influence NSAC, so can PRIDE.
