Humanoid robot MMA match ends in decapitation via spinning high kick
A viral X video from Shenzhen is being described by posters as a humanoid robot MMA match, with one robot losing a head mid-spin.
A video shared on X by XH_Lee23 and amplified by Brian Roemmele is being framed by those posts as Shenzhen's "world's first humanoid robot MMA event." Another post from rohanpaul_ai says the match used the same robot platform with different teams running different control software, turning the spectacle into a test of balance, timing, movement and recovery after impact. In the clip, one robot lands a spinning high kick and the other robot's head comes off.

Commentary on X
@BrianRoemmele Looks amazing. They are spamming one maneuver tho. My guess is it's optimizing for reach and weight when impacting the opponent.
@BrianRoemmele I wouldn't pay to see this, same as with human MMA events. Looks just as stupid and pointless.
@rohanpaul_ai soon these machines will move faster than humans inside the ring
@BrianRoemmele Teaching AI violence is the worst idea ever.
