There are so, so few opportunities to throw a hadouken unironically. “During an MMA fight” is one of the precious few moments to channel your inner Ryu and feel like a total badass while doing so — as long as you’re actually in the fight. Shane Campbell expertly seized the moment during a recent bout with Derek Boyle.
Here is the excellent moment in action, which I discovered thanks to Uproxx:
Is this the IRL version of Smash Bros. taunting?
Yes. And it’s awesome. I’m very jealous that I’ll never be an MMA fighter and get to throw a hadouken so triumphantly myself.

I’d rather see Kamehameha vs Hadouken in pro wrestling.
