|  Dim Mak - the missing link in mma?
I think so. Nobody in mma is yet truly well rounded (even Fedor), and I think many are skeptical, or even afraid, of the artforms outside of the standard wrestling, jj, boxing, thai.
Think about it. With Dim Mak you can KO or, if you wish, kill your opponent with a single touch or even stare. If combined with an elusive tma form like Mantis ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytR6HB3vVMI) then it would be unstoppable.
Any thoughts?

git. | I agree 1 billion percent. The Dim Mak is greatly underused. Fighters should definitely undertake this artform. Just imagine if Rich Franklin knew the Dim Mak when he was getting his sh*t pushed in by Silva. He could've saved his own ass.

He could've Dim Maked Ortiz the f*ck out! All these mma guys know is just basic takedowns, punching, kicking and submission. I bet in 30-40 years, people will be dying in the octagon from Dim Maks. I bet we'll even see Drunken fighting and Monkey style.

Drunken's been done to death: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DOZiL-6u0c
there could be something to Monkey style, but my instinct is that DM is where it's at.
