@mmastylez Haha)) There IS a resemblance. Fedor is better, though. Because he's real ;)

[Xavsambo]

The fight was over because Fedor made his opponent fall on his back, while Fedor remains standing!

This case is rare, but this is what we call "total victory" !

[T0KIWARTOOTH]

its called an ippon in judo its much more common, we do it all the time! :)

[Elix17]

@Xavsambo "Clean victory"

[silverstar087]

the rules are wierd, but these guys are like like mudkips to him

[rampagesgrill84]

why was it over? The wrestling pin rule? Someone explain, I have no clue.

[Draykid]

Think of Sambo like a mixture between judo and wrestling. Therefore, taking the other guy down without going down yourself would be like an ippon in Judo. Whereas if he went down with the guy, it would have continued.

[picardanddata]

so u get taken down once and the whole fight is over?

[Draykid]

Only if it's an amazing takedown.

Of course, I'm not really sure about all of this, but you can research the rules of combat sambo on wikipedia.

[picardanddata]

he won the finals wit a kimura, jus take down not enough

[yummybacon]

if he takes the person down withouth going to the ground himself then its a win

[asianmanMLK]

Its like a touch pin in Freestyle Wrestling.
