Fights! Fights! and more Fights!

These are my favorite fight videos of the week.

Take notes... never know when this unconventional leg sweep escape can come in handy.

Proof that it's never over until it's over... whether you're winning OR losing. Also, how stalling for time is an effective ring strategy sometimes.   
The Front Tiep is an awesome kick. Learn it and use it. 
But keep your balance, too.  
Seriously... don't fall.
