Yeah Gilmet...im calling out a re-match - Kyle Theiss Thu, 31 Dec 2009 11:46:34 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5947 Maybe you could start a poll or a thread dedicated to how a honorable fighter should conduct themselves in and out of the cage, with the recent article about the Kuester antics this could be a good way to call out the clowns who act in ways that are not very becoming of a fighter. Kind of a what are the thoughts of the public on this matter thing. - Mike Hansen Thu, 19 Nov 2009 21:13:49 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5940 Fair enough. Since the article, WCS has decided that we will not support that type of conduct. So hopefully we have some of your respect back, but I was truly hoping that the topic would take hold. As I've mentioned, I've seen more fighters than just Gilmet do this, and it's going to keep happening until the rules are changed. It would be nice if all fighters fought with respect, but I guess everyone will just have to deal with it. - Maxwell Destree Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:28:12 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5939 I love to fight. I understand that there is a great chance that I will get hit, the trade off is that I get to hit back. There are so many things that the brain has to keep track of that getting blasted while touching gloves just shouldn't be one of them... - Mike Hansen Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:52:05 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5937 I agree, I was hoping to have a good discussion about the current glove touching policy. After the fights, my brother and I couldn't help but talk about how to make it better. But, I guess it didn't really work. - Maxwell Destree Thu, 19 Nov 2009 08:50:22 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5934 I really hoped that this would get more attention. Only three people think this is BS!! Sad really. - Mike Hansen Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:09:47 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5893 Actually, I'm glad that this has stirred up some emotion. Personally, I am always disappointed when I don't see a clean touch of gloves before the fighters fight. But the fact is that Gilmet isn't the first guy to do this, and he won't be the last as long as it's legal (and it is legal). It seems that there is always one guy at an event that starts throwing as they touch gloves. I personally would like to see the ref have the fighters meet in the middle of the ring, touch gloves and go back to their corner and come out fighting. As I already said,I too get tired of seeing guys all jacked up and throwing punches while touching gloves, but it is something that fighters have to deal with until the rules are changed. - Maxwell Destree Sun, 15 Nov 2009 10:38:29 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5891 You dont want to touch gloves then dont. But dont cheap shot the guy. Shame on you Will Gilmet. - Joe Ochs Sun, 15 Nov 2009 09:56:52 +0100 http://wicombatsports.com/200911151138/results/spartacua-1-achieves-its-goal.html#comment-5889 Legal or not, that still is not cool. I realize that you are supposed to "protect yourself at ALL TIMES" but to have to worry about touching gloves is wrong. Have some class and fight like a man. That simple. If you didn't come to fight (which means that you might get punched) then why get in the cage? I really hope that dudes coach/gym does not condone this behavior. Further more I am dissapointed in WCS for trying to justify this. Honor and class among warriors. I thought.. - Mike Hansen Sun, 15 Nov 2009 09:29:34 +0100
