    It seems to be a bit high for me. Especially the lat pic.... Wouldnt that add extra protection??? I know alot of fighters (not just johnson do this), its just that he stuck out as i was rewatching dawson johnson 2

    No. The placing of the cup is not legal

    Its slightly too high, but its not bad. it should be at the belly button and it looks like it's about a half an inch too high. If you want a bad one...

    Librado Andrade is another fighter who likes to wear a very high and very thick cup.

    Best picture I could find.

    Dawson's cup was way too high.

    I've always found Oscar's to be particularly ridiculous.
