Video: Fighters offer advice for dealing with a shot\u00a0to the baby maker
"America's Funniest Home Videos" used to revel in a good crotch shot – the audience members always groaned but then quickly roared at some unfortunate schlub taking a wiffle ball bat to the baby maker from his 4-year-old, or an overzealous skateboarder losing balance and racking himself on a rail slide.
But let's face it: Particularly if you happen to have a twig and berries, there's nothing at all funny about taking one to the mommy-daddy parts. And we see it in MMA all the time – a fighter writhing in pain, then needing 15, 20 seconds to Mitt Romney himself and his cup to get back to ready.
MMA Junkie recently talked to fighters about the experience of taking a 7-10 split and how they deal with nut shots when they happen. Check out the video above — and then hope you never have to worry about getting junk punted.

Check out this week's "Spinning Back Clique," MMA Junkie's weekly live show that takes a spin through the biggest topics in mixed martial arts. This week's panel of Matthew Wells, Nolan King and Danny Segura will join host "Gorgeous" George Garcia live at 11 a.m. ET (8 a.m. PT) to discuss and debate the following topics: Khamzat Chimaev is the new UFC middleweight champion. The unbeaten star dominated and dethroned Dricus Du Plessis in the UFC 319 main event Saturday. It was a performance that disappointed some, and impressed others, given the lack of damage in the fight and wrestle-heavy approach from Chimaev. What's next for Chimaev? How long can he stay champion? Where does Du Plessis go from here? We analyze the UFC 319 main event. Outside the headlining act at UFC 319, there were some big results. Lerone Murphy and Carlos Prates scored Knockout of the Year contenders with spinning elbows, putting the lights out for Aaron Pico and Geoff Neal, respectively. Additionally, Michael Page beat Jared Cannonier, picking up another win at 185 pounds. We discuss what's next for the winners and losers of these key results. 2025 PFL tournament finals continued with Alfie Davis, Liz Carmouche and Marcirley Alves winning titles. Davis outpointed heavy favorite Gadzhi Rabadanov in a close bout. Carmouched viciously knocked out Jena Bishop. We react to these two championship wins. Plus, the PFL returns Thursday with the middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight finals. The UFC is also in business this weekend. The promotion hosts a Fight Night event in Shanghai headlined by a light heavyweight bout between Johnny Walker and Zhang Mingyang. Additionally, this card features Brian Ortega vs. Aljamain Sterling and Sergei Pavlovich vs. Waldo Cortes-Acosta. We break down and preview the main fights from the card.
