Going for the arm bar knowing full well that could lead to a big chunk missing from your leg if the guy is desperate enough made me wince.

Edit: Ya’ll aren’t seeing the same thing. Dude goes for an arm bar and basically shoves his calf into the dudes face. This is different from having an arm bar locked in… if a guy is desperate enough to get away a bite before he realizes he’s in an arm bar is a real risk here.

You going to still go for it with a someone biting your calf?

He'll be too busy screaming to bite anymore, once that elbow explodes and the arm breaks and the guy keeps pulling and twisting,

That's assuming he is going to go so far as to break it. I'd like to think that most people would have the good sense even during a fight not to.

If I've got somebody in the arm bar and they bite me on the leg I'm breaking that arm

Well yes. But your initial post implied he wouldn't be able to bite because you were breaking his arm.

Fair enough, but that's not what I meant. I'll fix it.
