Human Nature doesn't have anything to do with it.
Yes it does. When you are involved in a fight and the adrenaline is pumping you don't stop to say "Wait a minute, is this against the rules?" it just kind of happens. You have to train yourself not to do it.

That is human nature.

It will take him a while to get used to that. Even fighters who have been in MMA for 10 or 15 years still slip up from time to time.


I'm a good old rebel,
Now thats just what I am,
And for this Yankee nation,
I do not give a damn.
I'm glad we fought against her,
I only wish we'd won.
I ain't asking any pardon for anything we've done.
