It takes major guts to be an MMA fighter. And you have to give your all to try and overpower your opponent. For Jusine Kish, she was giving her all, and then some, at a UFC fight in Oklahoma City.
Kish was fighting Felice Herrig in Oklahoma City for UFC Fight Night 112. Herrig had Kish in a rear-naked choke hold and that’s when things really seemed to turn crappy.

It sure looked like Kish had an “accident” while she was being choked.
The human body can do some amazing things and some not so amazing things. And one of those not so amazing things is that someone could evacuate their bowels when under extreme duress. I would imagine being choked qualifies as being under duress so Kish’s body was just doing what it was supposed to do because her body thought it was in danger.
And if this is what it seems to be, Kish wouldn’t be the only person who had something like that happen to them. UFC fighters Yoel Romero and Tim Sylvia had similar issues so it’s just something that comes with the territory of being a kick-ass MMA fighter.
Kish poked a bit of fun at herself and kicked off the list of puns that people came up with for this situation.
I am a warrior, and I will never quit #ShitHappens haha be back soon.

When @feliceherrig beat Justine Kish by Unanimous Decision, she totally got brownie points ? #UFCOKC #UFCFightNight

Herrig wound up winning via unanimous decision. So the fact that Kish got choked so hard that her body involuntarily reacted like that and didn’t tap out is definitely something I could never do. Well, I could crap myself in the middle of a UFC cage but that would mostly be because of fear and don’t need it to be choked out of me.
