After UFC 331, Andy Foster, head of the California Athletic Commission, said that he wants to ban the oblique kick because it’s too dangerous, and UFC CEO Dana White agreed. While I don’t always see eye-to-eye with Foster, I rarely feel like he’s being completely ridiculous, but now is one of those times. So, let’s discuss Foster’s pearl-clutching in this week’s mailbag.
The Oblique kicks are nasty down right evil but should they be banned? I don’t know but put too many rules in then what is the purpose of fighting if you have to check yourself every time. Next they will ban calf kicks. When does it end!
MMA’s origin is no-holds-barred combat.
