Heavyweight fighter Roy Nelson recently shared some footage of some very dangerous MMA training.
In the video that Nelson shared on his Facebook page, a fighter makes himself pass out after choking himself while training.
After doing some traditional ground-and-pound training with a dummy, the fighter got to his feet and did something truly bizarre.
With a strap tied down to the cage, the fighter took the strap and wrapped it around his neck. He then moved forward and began punching pads, while he was being choked by the strap. Eventually, the man lost consciousness.
The entire training video can be seen above.
“Do not try this at home! #specialpeople #specialtraining #specialcoach Repeat do not do this at home!” Nelson wrote on his Facebook page.
Nelson recently left the UFC and joined Bellator MMA. He is scheduled to make his debut with the promotion on Sept. 23 at Bellator 183. Nelson will fight Javy Ayala in a heavyweight bout.
