I've been determined not to comment on what went on before the final punch, it doesn't go anywhere near justifying Flower punching an unconscious man. However, this seems a case of not knowing your elbow from your forearm. The elbow is the pointy bit not touching Flower's face. The forearm is the bit that is.
Talk about splitting hairs. Whether it's a forearm or elbow it's illegal. Nobody said it justifies what follows, but plenty of people refuse to believe it happened at all, hence the post. Some people simply want to believe that Ben Flower did this totally unprovoked as instructed by his coach, rather than as an idiotic over reaction to something Hoahai did.
