titocouture.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Khabib-Dropping-Elbows-GIF.gif blue pls it looks like 12-6 elbows to me, need the ug's opinion. perhaps an even bigger fail by dan after the invisible back of head shots. |

No, 12-6 is vertical, straight down on to an opponent, he's still coming from an angle. |

think of it like a clock. the elbow has to come down from where the 12 is to where the little 6 is surprised you don't know this |

You can't come straight down with the point of the elbow. Those were completely legal in my opinion. |

Totally legal and there shouldn't be any debate. |

Scarred - You can't come straight down with the point of the elbow. I see fighters on the bottom do it all of the time. |

Pretty sure the only illegal ones are the 12 - 6

No those are not illegal. But these are pretty much definition of 12-6 right here.

I thought the same thing right when the fight ended, and while I think they were close to being considered 12-6, there was enough of an arc on them for them to be legal in my opinion.
Just my opinion. |

Jaybrone - They look like they drop at the exact same angle except Jones is raising his elbow above his head before dropping it down, whereas Khabib is just dropping the elbows. |

actually looking at them again, they look really similar. |

one is from full mount so i don't see how they are similar. jones is bringing his elbow up to 12 on the clock we talked about, and then down to 6. 12 to 6 on the clock that we talked about. nugmersntrovysteyr is not bringing his elbow up to 12 on the clock we talked about, and then down to 6. not 12 to 6 on the clock we talked about. ps. i don't really see why THAT angle in banned by the way but it is. i think we need jack's opinion on it personally - i'm sure you agree :DDD |
