Video: UFC Fighter Reacts to Slap Fighting
A few months back, in Toronto, we sat down with UFC featherweight Kyle Nelson and his friend/training partner Binaebi ‘Benny’ Otoru (who is also a pro fighter on the local MMA scene) and showed them a slew of wild videos that somehow relate to martial arts and/or combat sports.
We have seven of these to release over the coming weeks. The first one showcases slap fighting — via SlapFIGHT championships; an organization that is working hard to make slap fighting a thing in the United States.
Watch the video above to see what Nelson and Otoru thought of the burgeoning sport.
