Mousasi: Allowing Elbows Makes Wrestling More Important

Gegard Mousasi (Pictured), on “Beatdown,” discussing Strikeforce’s rule change to allow elbows on the ground:

“I think now it’s more dangerous to be fighting from your back because elbows can cut you. I think now more than ever wrestling is more important. With elbows you can do more damage from the top position. It changes the fighting a little bit, but it shouldn’t matter because I shouldn’t be on my back anyway.”
