Shinya Aoki loses his shit



Submission necromancer, Shinya Aoki, in a stunning heel turn snapped the arm of Sengoku lightweight champion, Mizuto Hirota during the co-main event of Japan's massive New Year's Eve MMA festival, K-1 Dynamite!: The Power of Courage 2009.

Aoki secured a sort of hammerlock from mount, forced Hirota to his stomach and cranked that soldier boy until Yuji Schimada, the Cadillac of Referees, is forced to save Hirota from being dismembered. At 2:55 you can clearly see Hirota's arm give way under Aoki. Stunningly, Aoki, in a fit of childlike delight, flips off the prone Hirota and then proceeds to run around the ring and give the audience the bird (they politely clap in response).

Believe it or not, this pint-sized Brock Lesnar has broken someone's arm before in Shooto, some guy I don't know, check that out here. Also, in a sport jujitsu contest, he broke the arm of notable Japanese MMA journeyman, Kuniyoshi Hironaka, with a flying armbar. After completing the armbar he breaks the arm, torques it the other direction and re-breaks it, then wraps the mangled arm around his leg before the ref (what the fuck was he watching?) stops the match.

Not sure where this is heading, Aoki breaks arms apparently, I was gonna handicap Aoki vs. Penn but I don't see how any of this relates to that. It's very late and in no uncertain terms, I may have pooped my bed. Sooo... I better hit the old dusty trail.

  1. Great post, but I can't believe there was no mention of Aoki's Rainbow Brite pants, which are clearly the source of his power!
