If you saw the pay per view last night on Saturday the 13th of June 2009, you saw Mirko Cro Cop Filipovic eye gouge and win against Mustapha Al-Turk with an illegal MMA move.
How can this apply to reality based self defense? I'll show you this street fighting move you saw in their fight live on UFC 99.
Simple as it is, Mirko Cro-Cop eye gouged Mustapha Al-Turk and the man went down covering his face and cowering.
Yes, maybe he was waiting for the referee to see this happen, but none the less, he got man handled.
If you are ever facing a bigger or more threatening attacker, the simple eye gouge street fighting technique is much more simple and deadlier then a punch.
Your punch might make a guy my size laugh (And I'm a big guy.
) However if I took an finger into my eye socket, that would rock me.
Hell it would rock anyone.
It throws the bad guy off his game plan.
As simple as it was on UFC 99: Mirko "Cro Cop" Filpovic, Used street fighting to destroy Mustapha Al-Turk! Oh and some other news, Mirko Cro Cop Filipovic screwed over the UFC after his fight and cancelled his 3 fight deal with Dana White and the UFC.
However take this valid street fighting technique into your arsenal of moves against a scum bag that attacks you.
The eye gouge is a painful move to destroy someone, followed with other attacks like: groin kicks, knee stomps, kicking the shins, punching the throat, punching the back of the head.
Street fighting doesn't have rules, so don't hold back in a fight.
A simple self defense technique: the eye gouge, won the fight in UFC 99.
