Wilson kicking Philo's arm during the fight...


and breaking it was a bit of a bitch move wouldn't you agree?

Even though this kind of fighting "last man standing" was brutal Philo still had a code of ethics. Wilson was a bit of a dirty fighter.

The scary thing is, the actor playing Wilson could have much more easily broken a grown man's arm with a kick in real life!!!

That's what you call literally kicking a man when he was down. Philo was on the floor when he did that.

Lowdown move. Glad Wilson lost. He didn't deserve to win.

He could have kicked Philo in the head and fractured his skull or something, but he chose an easily recovered injury. He didn't want to kill Philo, he just wanted the fight over, so did this in the hope Philo would call it. Bad move, heh heh!!

I always saw that that as an impulsive, desperate move. He also "heeled" it up a bit so we'd want Philo to win.
