      The fighters are wearing full steel Gauntlets without any individual figures. It is incredibly hard to pick up a weapon off the ground in them. There is tons of funny videos of knights trying to. So we stop the fight and penalize them for losing their weapons be taking points away. Also, if the person purposefully ditches the weapon to get an advantage, then we penalize them even harder. We are forcing the weapon into the equation to prevent it from being armored boxing. That being said, while on the ground, we allow fighters to drop weapons and switch to hand to hand. This simulates what would happen in history when two fighters hit the ground, they would ditch the bigger weapon and pull out a smaller dagger. Since we don't want people dead from dagger stabs, we allow for ground and pound without any weapons in the hands while on the ground.

    • @armoredmma
      @armoredmma  Před měsícem

      @scaledsupremacy817 as I said in my other comment, a disarm causes a fighter to lose points. So having good disarm technique is actually encouraged. In this video the green guy disarmed the other fighter to force the judge to stop the fight and penalize the fighter who dropped his weapon

    @berke._.1261 Před měsícem

    I don't know the rules, but this is the worst use of a spear I've ever seen. You are using a spear, my friend, you should not bring your opponent closer to you. Hold the spear close to the middle so you can hit your opponent with the short side of the spear when he approaches you. If you try the long side, the guy will move closer to you until you hit. And why doesn't he stab?

    • @armoredmma

      There is no thrusting in the sport

    • @JohnStegmeier
      @JohnStegmeier Před měsícem +5

      No thrusting and the spear is optimized for pole arm duels. The Beard of an axe can get stuck on the shaft of my spear and I can use that to my advantage which happens in this fight. My spear doesn't get stuck and it's at the minimum legal weight limit for most leagues. My opponent in the green is an amazing fighter and has fought me many times using pole arm and knew exactly what he was supposed to do to get the win. I used the same spear in a tournament a few weeks before this fight and won gold in the pole arm category. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose. It's just the beauty of this sport haha.

      There are no submissions. That being said you certainly can choke someone with armor, but having metal on people throats could lead to slit throats. So submissions are currently not included in this sport. But there is plenty of ground game. View our other videos we just put out

      @emilianosintarias7337 guess I am not sure what the question is. These axes can break bones, cut through skin, and knock you out.... all of which has happened to both of these fighters. The green has had several broken hands and broke his thumb in this fight. He has been knocked out with an axe before and had his tendons pushed out of his arm. The other fighter has titanium plates holding his collar bone together from an axe strike from last year. So I'm not sure what the question is regarding the axes?

      @emilianosintarias7337 Před měsícem

      @@armoredmma the point is that axes typically cut and chop things. the armor reduces all weapons to basically the same weapon a stick/ club or hammer. If the axes are chopping flesh, IE, being used as axes, something has gone terribly wrong. So it's not a question, just a comment that I don't think this sport can thrive beyond the novelty stage - unless the weapons used are those dull ones intended to whack people with, and the armor adapted.

      @@emilianosintarias7337 I've thought about this a lot and I think the answer would be hammers made of a super dense rubber that won't hit AS hard as the real thing but will still be capable of K.O . I agree bringing a lot of weapon choices in these fights are questionable for fighting actually armored opponents , but we don't want fatalities. Some compromises towards safety must be made . I suggest ditching the swords , axes are basically just sharp hammers anyway so keep them , and allow for some sort of mace/hammer that isn't made of steel/iron to be used . Rubber mallets still pack a hell of a whollop.
