Yes, this is a legitimate sport that received Nevada’s sanction, and as a result, there has been much discussion over its sanctioning. And as it is a legit sport, the first episode taught audiences the rules, since each sport has its own set of regulations that must be followed.
Prior to the competition, a coin toss will determine who will slap first. In each round, the striker will slap with open hands. These all have three rounds, with the striker having 30 seconds to slap, followed by a 30-second recuperation period.
It’s the ultimate toughness test, according to White, and if it gets to the third round, the judges will decide to use the conventional MMA system. It will certainly be intriguing to see how the project grows, given that the first episode undoubtedly generated some bizarre reactions that were mixed.
