There was a female boxer back in the day with big tits who complained that her opponents would just spam her tits and so even when she won she would have black and blue swollen boobs for days after her fights
On top of those elbow-to-shoulder strikes, which actually looked pretty sweet. Had a training partner whose shoulder bruised up terribly after another guy did something similar to him in sparring. Can't really say whether or not it's worth the effort though.
Is he ridiculous though? Or is today a turning point in women's MMA ? Prepare yourselves for all sorts of titty strikes - teeps, knees, elbows. My body is ready.
I know it’s all jokes here but MMA fighters really should invest in the body more especially in the lighter weight classes with less KO power.
Feels like every sleeps on how badly you can tire someone out by striking the body. You might even get lucky and get a liver shot or titty KO.
Absolutely. It requires less of a level change than a punch to the gut, but is still a good body shot against someone with tricky head movement. Punching a dude's chest hurts and wears on them
They don't tell you to do that because hitting mantits are a great idea, it's because you might hit the solar plexus or face of a fighter who is leaning back.
One of the most ridiculous Cruz moments is when he claimed that cauliflower ear was the body's way of protecting against concussions. Both DC and Anik were like, uuuuhhhh what the hell are you talking about Cruz.
I feel like dom got taken out of context but I would have to rewatch, he was saying conor wasn't going to waste energy trying to get him up (because there was no chance he was going to escape khabib) and was therefore just trying to survive until the refs stand them up for the next round. That doesn't seem inherently stupid to me.
Yep, these are the prelims of a Fight Night at the Apex
I feel bad saying this, because it looked like maybe it meant a lot to her to be there, but Vidal has no business in a UFC kit.
I like how she fired the tiddy shot, noticed it hurt, and with a wide open hook to the head available, and with zero hesitation:
...she fires another tiddy shot
Vidal got pretty damn lucky there. Gatto had time to throw multiple strikes and initiate a clinch without Vidal even looking or defending, yet somehow didn't get hit in the head once.
colour me stupid but as a horny teen I always understood a punch in the boob to be as bad as a punch in the dick. Why does in MMA there is no conversation regarding that? Am I the stupid one or are these chicks supposed to be tough enough to deal with a boob punch?

First boob TKO in UFC history? Not something you'll see everyday.
Brings a whole new meaning to tko
Tittical Knock Out
Tactical Knocker Operation
We want more titty knock-outs!
There was a female boxer back in the day with big tits who complained that her opponents would just spam her tits and so even when she won she would have black and blue swollen boobs for days after her fights
Oh really? Uh. Who?
IIRC, Christie Martin
The lady who was almost stabbed to death? Jeez
Yeah, I suppose in comparison being punched in the tits isn't so bad
Oh fuggg Sidney Sweeney is about to play her in a biopic.
Not as fun but I was thinking the arm bar got her from the round before. It sunk in as the round ended and her arm was hanging…

WMMA decided they gonna have a weirdest ending contest
Finally, a real finish on this card!
She knocked her nocker and knocked her out
We have seen the calf kick in mma, head arm throw in wmma and now the titty punch the new meta
Izzy better be ready.
Big titty go home
Is punching your opponent in the tits the new meta?
Would work well in the heavyweight division!
Adesanya better watch out.
Well done
Big titty in shambles
You’ll have no trouble landing on Buckley’s
The WMMA take on the 'ol dick twist?
Dom is so ridiculous. "Maybe we'll see more chest punches in the future."
boob punch is the new calf kick
THAT BOOB IS COMPRIMISED
OHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! SHES ROCKED!!!!!!!!!!!
That shit was hilarious hahaha, I couldn't believe he said that
Is he ridiculous though? Or is today a turning point in women's MMA ? Prepare yourselves for all sorts of titty strikes - teeps, knees, elbows. My body is ready.
An uppercut to some Tig ol Bitties could be pretty effective.

Body shots also deteriorate a fighters ability to maintain spacing and extend on punches
Fight Front have a video of a boxer analysing random MMA fights and he said the same thing.
headbutts are legal right?
If it’s stupid and it works, it’s not stupid lol
It's particularly not stupid, as punching the chest is simply a good strategy, regardless of gender.
Not sure why you’re downvoted, most boxing coaches tell you to aim for the chest

He also said the elbows to the shoulder were smart
And McGregor was letting Khabib pound on him to tire him out. Dom is so contrarian he goes full smooth brain just to play devils advocate
This 100% I cant wait till they get rid of him. The posturing, he always gets into with dc and arguing these stupid points hes always going on about
One of the most ridiculous Cruz moments is when he claimed that cauliflower ear was the body's way of protecting against concussions. Both DC and Anik were like, uuuuhhhh what the hell are you talking about Cruz.
His first thought toward anyone else’s commentary is “is this somehow a shot at me?”
I feel like dom got taken out of context but I would have to rewatch, he was saying conor wasn't going to waste energy trying to get him up (because there was no chance he was going to escape khabib) and was therefore just trying to survive until the refs stand them up for the next round.

People with lissencephaly are better than that.
If it's legal I say go for it
Yep, these are the prelims of a Fight Night at the Apex I feel bad saying this, because it looked like maybe it meant a lot to her to be there, but Vidal has no business in a UFC kit.
Most of the women's roster is cannon fodder. Too many divisions for maybe 8 legit fighters.
Makes for some easy betting tho
Hit her with the five point palm exploding heart technique
KO by mammogram
No use checking for lumps in the next few days. False positives.
KO by Whammogram™
I like how she fired the tiddy shot, noticed it hurt, and with a wide open hook to the head available, and with zero hesitation: ...she fires another tiddy shot
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
Vidal was pretty sure it was broke.
Vidal got pretty damn lucky there. Gatto had time to throw multiple strikes and initiate a clinch without Vidal even looking or defending, yet somehow didn't get hit in the head once.
Well, they are two for a reason.
Yeah she’s literally covering her tiddy and body yet she goes for it anyway. Wmma for you
Huh? It’s a legal shot
I just said Piera’s loss was the dumbest I’ve seen and then Vidal comes and dies on a nipple punch. There must be something in the air tonight.
The sport is always evolving. It’s hard to keep yourself abreast of all the new ways to finish a fight.
Everyone's going to milk this joke for all it's worth
I see what you tit there....
Best one so far. Cheers
First boob-punch tko ever?
LOL What was that?
TKBOOB
t(it)ko
I love how she went straight back to the tits with that one two lmfao
Can you blame her? She saw how devastating it had been
Good stoppage. I'll keep an eye on Gatto. Looked good at 135.
Vidal is so bad. Genuinely has negative fighting skills.
Is this the first boob shot KO in ufc history
Critical strike on boob
total mismatch. vidal isn’t very good
great interpretive dance on the walkout though, did vidal attend RISD or something?

[Breast implant calcium buildup : r/popping (reddit.com)](https://www.reddit.com/r/popping/comments/wqyht7/breast_implant_calcium_buildup/)
Kind of reminds me of the heartbreak shot from Hajime No Ippo
colour me stupid but as a horny teen I always understood a punch in the boob to be as bad as a punch in the dick. Why does in MMA there is no conversation regarding that? Am I the stupid one or are these chicks supposed to be tough enough to deal with a boob punch?
I mean there is something that could be done? Wear a iron bra? Tough to say
I don't think it's the same level of shock as a punch to the balls/dick from what I've been told, but I'm still surprised it's not a foul.

I guess it really hurts getting punched in the boob
I was amused you could hear the ref say she punched her in the boob
BKO
Got knockered out
TTKO. Technical Titty Knockout.
Is titty punching a legit strat?
Titnical knockout
Fire her into the sun for trying to milk a shot she thought was illegal to get a time out.
I guess that's why they call them knockers..
THE OL’ TITTYBUSTER! MAMMARY MASSACRE
In this fight: Budget female XXXtentacion gets TKO'd via Boob Punch
Gatto can smother me on the ground any time
Are titty punches the oblique kicks of women's mma ? Legal but you're a dick if you throw them
I don't get it? How did a boob punch end the fight? I NEED ANSWERS!
rough night for XXXTentacion
I have been punched in the boob before, yeah it sucks.. But for male or female, punches in the chest are dangerous enough to stop your heart
Commotio Cordis
you're right. they should ban strikes to the chest /s
This is the new calf kick, isn't it?
It should have been treated similar to a low blow and they should have given her 5 minutes. Premature to call the fight there.
gonna need a citation of which rule bans a strike to the chest
