Description
my first photo in the sports gallery! and don't worry, probably the last one too 
i know i'm not a sports photographer, but i do want to get better at it and most of all right now i wanted to share this...moment, this experience. i love this sport. it's mixed martial arts; fighting that mixes several styles and has fairly little ruless. in this picture, the other guy is choking the other, and as a sign of giving up, the other is 'tapping out', which means tapping the floor 3 times. and because of that, the judge has stepped in to stop the fight.
as i said, this is probably my only submission in the sports category, so i expect you to hold back possible complains of not liking this type of material from me, this is important to me and the damage is already done however criticism at the photo is fine alltho i know the technical issues...but maybe you have something to add 
these guys are Pekka Rantala vs Thomas Valentin, at Cage 5: Winter War.

This is a great photograph, but judging from your icon.. the rest of your gallery is probably going to be more interesting. Trust me, it's a good thing.
