    Anyhow. I think it looks barbaric because of the blood. Blunt force trauma is probably worse in boxing because of 10 seconds recovery and limb injury worse in wrestling or judo because of the throws - though BJJ targets joints as well. Personally I'd rather submit to a choke/strangle/joint lock than submit to 10 elbows across the bridge of the nose.
    I don't know, neither are particularly appealing but just seeing someones arm go back the wrong way gives me the hebejebes, I'd literally be giving myself a hug to protect my arms watching a Ronda Rousey fight. I think I'd be out after the first elbow so I'd go with that option.

    Who would win in a fight between Conor MCG and sh*te in a bucket? That's the burning question here.

    Can shyte in the bucket bring his bucket?

    Has it been categorically proven that sh*te in a bucket actually has a bucket?

    I hope he has, the ramifications for him not having a bucket just don't bare thinking about.

    I thought he was using someone else's bucket, hence the acrimony.

    If I was losing on the ground, I'd be offering up my neck and I'd tap out immediately a choke/strangle went on. I'm much too pretty to be elbowed into submission and too much of a coward to get my elbow dislocated.
