Arms should not bend like they did when Charles Oliveira ripped at Tony Ferguson in a vicious arm bar at UFC 256 at UFC Apex in Las Vegas on Saturday. It was, in a word, disgusting.
To make the situation even more insane, Ferguson continued the fight after nearly getting his arm snapped in half. He didn’t tap out — he finished the fight. Oliveira (30-8 MMA, 18-8 UFC) took down Ferguson (25-5 MMA, 15-3 UFC) in upset fashion. Clearly, the move took a toll on Ferguson, who didn’t throw that left arm for the rest of the match.
Here’s a look. Word of warning, it’s gross. Really gross.
THIS ARM BAR 😳

I don’t know whether to praise Ferguson for going the distance — or whether to scold him. That was insane.
