    Who cares? As long as your an upcoming fighter, a popular star or simply non asian it's cool.

    Holding the ropes and stomping was illegal. But because its Wandy its ok :D The problem is foot stomps were legal and should be as far as im concerned. BUT its difficult to enforce when the natural inclination is to find your balance reach out and then stomp. Baroni did the same thing to Minowa.

    Headbutts were illegal to, but Takada needs money for diapers, and Wandy sells.

    (The Mezger fight if you are wondering)
