MMA should make Triangle Choke illegal
Posted on 7/6/15 at 9:16 am

Because it's not fair. The easiest way to escape is a groin punch, but punches below the belt are illegal. BTW the triangle choke is a bad idea in a street fight because the groin is left undefended.
I guarantee: you punch someone in the nuts, and they are going to let go with their leg hold.
It doesn't seem sporting that the best way to escape from a legal hold is prohibited by rule. Either legalize groin punches to counter triangle chokes or make triangle chokes illegal.

A knee to the groin is the easiest way to defend the clinch, as well. Should they just ban wrestling?

Wait, the easiest way to defend from the full guard is an eye gouge. Make gouges legal!

You're a special kind of stupid

White thrash garbage. Not a real sport

Well I have seen Quinton Jackson powerbomb a sucker from the triangle choke. So there's that.

Yeah but that was in pro wrestling and not mma.

I once witnessed a fella pull guard from a standing position in a bar fight. MMA douche wannabe split his head open as he pulled the guy to the ground. It was great. I'll bet he dreamed of that moment for years. He was going to get to tell his BJJ instructor about the beautiful art saving the day and how he reached a level of zen known by few as he took down the big bully.

The last thing that sport needs is more pussy rules.

I actually had someone in a triangle choke in a "street fight" before. Guess how he got out? He bit my fricking dick.

Triangle choke in a street fight. 
Posted on 7/6/15 at 1:48 pm to goodbuds
Sorry but if a legit fighter is choking me with that; I also have to worry about one of my arms getting broke I'm not gonna be able to punch that person in the groin
Posted on 7/6/15 at 1:50 pm to lsucoonass
And if there is a "street fight" I'm not gonna pull guard or go for a triangle choke. That's just dumb

You've got a free arm. Takes less than a second to throw 3 uppercuts. That's quicker than it takes to break the ligaments in the other arm.

Is this a jab at pride?

You seem to be confused
Mma guys wouldn't pull guard. For the most part they work getting to top position, pulling guard is kind of a no-no
Probably someone who did some BJJ at some point
And to the OP, I will give you 5:1 odds that if I slap a triangle only you you will have 0 success with trying to punch me in the groin. You can come by the gym anytime you would like and we can have a friendly wager on it
