Bas Rutten was a bad MoFo !
His strikes were second to Tyson, who he admires as the best puncher/striker ever. Bas and Tyson at one point in time is two men who would totally CRUSH you !
I wonder how much more palm striking you'd see in MMA if they had no gloves. I assume they're there to prevent handbrakes so the athletes strike more.
The best thing about the Palm strike is that it is so powerful because unlike a punch where you have to deal with the movement and possible injury of the wrist, you have solid bone from the wrist down to the elbow to back up the heel of the Palm when you strike.
Anybody else remember Captain Kirk from the original Star Trek series coming off one of the elevators and getting a palm strike right to the nose?
Anyone trained in a grappling style, Judo, JJ/BJJ/wrestling, should always use palm strikes. The benefit of the palm strike is how quickly you can grab the other person and execute a takedown.
