This is not MMA. It's a generic fast pace Asian martial arts scene with a triangle choke and a RNC thrown in there.

Disagree there is more than just an RNC there is a triangle some arm bar atempts and even sweep or two from what I remember, I'd check again but youtube is being an ass.

In "the death and life of bobby z" pat militich was the fight chorographer and some of the moves were ridiculous mma move (as in bad not good). Paul walker and can pull off a flying armbar by jumping off a rock lmao....

Ok I stand corrected. It's a generic fast paced Asian martial arts movie with a little more BJJ then I had first mentioned. Still not a MMA fight scene.

I never understood how in the later Lethal Weapon movies his character never new martial arts. Like when he met his wife for the first time she tried teaching him some martial arts and then of course when he fought Jet Li he didn't attempt to use any martial arts. Just never figured that out.
