James Moontasri regrets nothing, not even the people’s elbow attempt at Swanson vs. Stephens

You may not know James Moontasri, but he could’ve become your new favorite fighter had he not fought on a card that was watched by only a few people who weren’t burned out by 12 hours of UFC action.

Mr. Moontasri has a hell of a fight with Joe Ellenberger, a fight he lost by split-decision, but he made it interesting by attempting a people’s elbow. Yes.

He said this to Sherdog:

“I like to stay active, so I’ll want to fight as soon as possible,” Moontasri said. “I tried to do the ‘People’s Elbow’ like The Rock at one point. Maybe I should have done whatever the judges wanted to see, but I don’t know what that is. I’m just glad I put on a good show for my debut.”

My kingdom for a replay or a .gif. Does anyone have one?
