While you were likely sleeping, Asian MMA promotion ONE FC put on their 23rd event in Manila, Philippines.
If you recall, ONE FC allows kicks and knees to a downed opponent unlike their Unites States counterparts in UFC and Bellator. In fact, we have seen devastating soccer kick KO’s from ONE FC in the past.
This morning, two violent soccer kick KO’s occurred, and you have to see them to believe it (Courtesy of Zombie Prophet):

Yes, that is the same Brandon Vera that once was a highly touted UFC prospect.
Anyhow, we would love to know your thoughts on soccer kicks. Should UFC and Bellator implement that rule set, or is it too violent and dangerous?
Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
