Canadian Athletic Commission Issues Ban on Rarely-Seen Strike at UFC 315

Hopefully, nobody was planning to make foot stomps a big part of their game plan at UFC 315.

The UFC’s latest pay-per-view offering goes down this Saturday in Montreal, headlined by two world title tilts. First, reigning flyweight queen Valentina Shevchenko will put her gold on the line against the division’s No. 2 ranked contender, Manon Fiorot, in the co-main event.

Then, the featured fight of the evening will see Belal Muhammad defend his welterweight title against streaking Aussie sensation Jack Della Maddalena.

The event will be sanctioned by the Quebec Athletic Commission and will utilize the Unified Rules of MMA, but with one small exception.
