Jumping Backwards Onto Your Own Head - Not The Best Strategy In A UFC Fight

Folks, time and time again I tell you that professional wrestling is the best mixed martial arts discipline and time and time again I’m told by UFC hardos everywhere that that isn’t the case. More and more fighters are applying tools from pro wrestling to their moveset as time goes on, however, and the proof is in the pudding.

Sweet Chin Music?

Check.

Enziguri?

Check.

The Walls of Jericho?

Check.

And now…the Canadian Destroyer.

They said it would never work. That it could never be done. That for a successful “shoot” Canadian Destroyer to take place, the recipient would quite literally have to backflip onto their own head.

Well, it happened, ladies and gentlemen, and it was glorious.

Yet another reason why the Flyweights rule.
