I wonder if that guy sobered up and realized how badly that could of gone.

Yep, you could tell Serra didnt wanna hurt dude, especially how folks are quick to sue, but if he wanted to he couldve seriously hurt him quickly with little effort. Start shyt with a man who once knocked out GSP brehs

Agreed. There are exceptions of course but I think most professionally trained fighters are good enough guys and they won’t really hurt people in street altercations. They understand the mechanics of self-defense and when to diffuse something versus seriously hurting or killing somebody. Plus they have nothing to prove

Where did this tapping out is cowardly talking point people have been using even come from?

I encourage people who think tapping out is somehow a shameful act to go into a legit jiu jitsu gym get a week pass and roll with a purple belt or better. .. please bring a camera and please keep that same “tapping out is cowardly” energy

When losing consciousness, temporarily losing the use of a limb or tapping are the only options, call me crazy but I'm tapping

It’s ok to tap it happens to the “best” of fighters. It’s not ok to say you’re ready for war, go 100 all the way with your antics and then do the safest thing possible to live another day which is tap. Best believe if Conor had tapped out Khabib we wouldn’t have heard the end of it.

When Conor has faced adversity in the octagon. He’s 2-2. 1 nate Diaz gift rematch and the Chad mendes fight. I technically believe he should be 1-3 because I still side eye the decision. He faces Khabib again he will lose. He may even lose against Tony and Nate again. I believe he would lose against GSP and Woodley too... so where does he go from here?

Yeah, I'm with you on this. The most common thing I see from dudes not tapping is worse injuries, not some heroic escape or anything close.
