Mixed martial arts is arguably one of the craziest and most unpredictable sports there is, as anything can happen inside the cage.

One of the most bizarre incidents happened in June, when UFC Strawweight Justine Kish lost control of her bowels and visibly soiled herself mid-fight.

Ahead of UFC 217 at Madison Square Garden in New York this weekend,  the New York State Athletic Commission (NYSAC) has made a bold move by getting rid of unwanted bodily fluids inside the octagon.

The governing body, which is responsible for regulating MMA fights in the state, has now banned poop, urine and vomit while competing.

According to the new rules in place relayed by MMA Imports, any fighter who would release the body fluids will forfeit the fight by technical knockout (TKO).

As of this writing, only the NYSAC has imposed such a rule and it remains unclear if other governing divisions in other states will soon follow.

The new regulation will take effect on Saturday’s event (Sunday in Manila), headlined by a UFC Middleweight title fight between champion Michael Bisping and the returning Georges St. Pierre. Khristian Ibarrola /ra
