Rodriguez was nice enough to throw together a companion video to the post he wrote last week on pro wrestling moves used in the UFC.
Oh, and sorry about the weirdo music ... apparently the musician who's music we used in our video doesn't want the exposure so fuuuuuuuuck him. So I replaced it with some Japanese glitch tech music to make sure I wouldn't have to re-encode the video AGAIN.
Nicely done!! That music fits PERFECTLY with those clips. I really dislike pro wrestling, but I really enjoyed watching this clip!!! Again, good job with the entire video. I never thought I would make it all the way though....But, couldnt wait to see the next, and the next, and the....
Very nicely done I have no idea how long it takes to make a video like this but it looks time consuming. I always knew that pro wrestling was dangerous but you can really see how some of those moves can fuck a guy up in a real fight. That Carlos Newton headlock was the only time I ever seen that one in mma and the spinebuster almost backfired on Sherk you could see his neck bend off to the side. I also like that it wasn't all WWE and I never would have guessed about the peoples elbow.
Great video. There could have been multiple MMA examples of the same move though. The Hughes/Newton and Page/Arona powerbombs are two obvious ones absent. The German Suplex on Fedor and the Wanderlei DVD on Saku too.
usually when videos are that long, i dont watch them. but i watched that whole thing and thought that it was good. i lol several times, just remembering some of these old fights
