Flying cartwheel in MMA fight

By

Props to Restita for finding this gem: a flying cartwheel in an MMA bout. The guy then scores a solid knee strike and finished with an arm bar. Nice! The cartwheel is at about 55 seconds

Sakuraba does a cartwheel too but he uses his hands so this guy here deserves some serious kudos for trying it without hands. He did get some help from his opponent who kept him in the air with his feet, but still. Nice work.

Here’s Sakuraba:

    I couldn’t believe it when I saw it. I had to watch the replays over and over just to convince myself it wasn’t planned! Hahaha!
