Art of War 3.

Last night I shot the MMA event Art of War 3 at the American Airlines center in Dallas, TX.

Here are a few samples. The rest are on my website which can be found in my signature.

Thomas Schulte landing a huge knee the Jason Maxwell's chin opening a huge cut. Maxwell won the decision in this bloody fight.

Alex Andrade ground and pounds his opponent to a ref stoppage.

Mario Rinaldi leaning against the fence after the ref stopped his fight with Ron Waterman due to un answered blows. He was basically leaning against it for a few seconds because his left leg locked straight. He kind of "melted" down slowly to the mat.

That shot is great.

That first one is insane. The power put into that knee and the pressure put on the guys chin is crazy. I don't know how people do it.

Photographic wise, i do like the last one best.

Cool photos. The last one is great.

Was this the same event as Monson/Rizzo?
