Seems like we’ve had a bit of theme going here lately, in that every second post here on Fix, deals with guys who know how to ‘maximize’ their mic potential. Meaning, there are certain dudes in MMA with a rep for saying stuff that either incites laughter, anger, or both. That makes for good copy folks. This post will journey beyond James Toney and Chael Sonnen (surprisingly), and over to Japan, to pass along some rather interesting comments from Dream Lightweight champ Shinya Aoki. As you probably know, Mr. Aoki isn’t just famous for his ‘holy sheet’ submissions, he’s also been know for saying / doing things that are…well, ‘colorful.’
In a recent interview with MMA Fighting Aoki discussed his recent tap-out victory over Tatsuya Kawajiri in some detail. Why did we choose the word ‘detail?’ Well check out some of what the submission wiz had to say, while discussing the Achilles Lock he used to seal the deal at Dream 15.
“I actually try to think of this last part of the joint as being non-existent. For example, you can’t move at all if your neck or your backbone is broken, right? But if I am attacking the elbow or the ankle, my opponent can still move. If I break that last remaining part of the joint in the foot and don’t get a tap, my opponent can still move with his other foot then I’d be in a difficult situation. I thought I might have needed to destroy the other foot too.”
All cringing aside…guess Shinya’s got a valid point no?
There may not have been a UFC or Strikeforce event this weekend, but that doesn’t mean that there weren’t still plenty of people punching, kicking, and choking each other all around the world.
