      The rules of CJJ only permit open hand slaps or strikes when one or both competitors are on the floor. The fighter on the ground does not commit a foul if they swing strikes or up kicks on their opponent. However, punches, elbows, and knees are fouls in the game. simple google search will tell you these things

    Like a lot of the guys from JacksonMMA in ABQ, Cowboy was trained in BJJ by Tussa and Barrata of Gracie Barra NM.

    Cowboy hopping away from Greg was hilarious. Greg, Greg Jones.

    The announcer is an advertisement for anti-cigarettes. His voice sounds like his dad was asphalt and his moms an ashtray.

    Craig was definitely going easy on Cerrone. He was in their with a ufc legend. He wanted to enjoy his time.
