Open-handed strikes are allowed, but only on the ground. It’s worth mentioning that this style of jiu-jitsu is slightly more dangerous from conventional fighting styles, due to the fact that no striking is allowed. However, once the fighters are on the ground, only open palm strikes are permitted.

Gonzalez continued to apply pressure which ended up breaking her opponent’s arm.
The fight was then immediately stopped by the referee. It was pretty obvious the arm was popped and was broken in half. Pearl was declared Pear the winner because of this move. But seriously... Yikes!
