Kyle Maynard to fight amateur MMA

http://blog.ticketbiscuit.com/2009/0...icial-release/

Wow... my hat goes off to Kyle since MMA is a lot different than wrestling.

Kid has a lot of heart, not sure how that will work out for him though.

I wouldnt call it heart but rather cajones.

Well it will be hard to arm bar or ankle lock him.

this is true, this also means that it will be hard to block strikes and kicks, unless they are banned in amateur mma.

I am picking maynards opponent by whatever he wants, anyone wanna sig bet?

With all due respect, how does he plan on not getting killed? How is going to block strikes of any sort? How does he plan on ending a fight? He won't be able to KO or submit anyone. I wish the guy all the best, but unless I am missing something, this a f--cking crazy idea.

I think he can submit people but his choice of submissions is rather limited, obviously he wont be locking in no triangles but armbars I can see. maybe PJ can give us an idea of other subs he could utilize

I see no ko's or blocking for him.

In amateur rules there are no elbows. I think that is the biggest difference between ammy and pro.

In terms of the rule no knees to a downed opponent, I wonder how that would be defined with Kyle since he is so low to the ground. So that might work in his favor.

Never doubt a determined foe.
