I got in an arguement with this kid who likes mma and i thought i was gonna fucking lose it. I mean i like mma its entertaining and all i watch it i have nothing against it, but the fans are fuckin retarded the kid was trying to say that submissions are more exciting then knockouts, and other bullshit like that.
This isnt a post trying to diss MMA like I said i like it, this is a post to diss the typical MMA fan.
Im a boxing fan first, and a mma fan 2nd, but i'll tell u this. Anyone can land a lucky punch and ko his opponent. There is no such thing as a lucky submission when it comes to proffesional grapplers.
Well if he likes submissions more then Ko's thats fine, who are you to tell another man to like a Hamburger more then a hotdog.
Two different sports
Two different fan bases
move on
guys i have a question id appreciate it if you could answer it for me,
what is the typical mma, is it just guys who are there to see a street fight and hopefully see someone get the shit beat out of them.
from the mma events i have seen on tv, the impression i get is that the people at the event dont seem to appreciate the technical aspect of the sport and if there isnt punches being thrown or ten seconds without action the place is usually ringing with boo`s.
so what is the actual crowd like at mma events? maybe i have the wrong impression.
im not say saying all fans are like this, of course there are people who appreciate and understand the technical aspect.
Depend on the area. If you had a show in SoCal or Ohio. you'd possibly have a high amount of people who know and understand the sport. Texas and Montreal would be a bit even and New Jersey is flat out full of fags. England is too hard to judge yet.
But you're right, with the boom, there has been a rise in asshole activity and the best we can do is explain and either get through to them or just wait it out till they lose interest. It's usually split between guys who scream about stuff hitting the ground and others who say all the fights are fake.
Ok i know some people like submissions but I dont really care abuot that I'm just complaining about the ignorance of these people. But you cant honestly say a typical person would rather see someone get submitted then knocked out. And I like mma i said that before i guess you guys didnt read it.
Coming from a grappling background, I can say if a submission is perfectly executed or unique, it can be up there with a beautiful KO.
Hey man some people dig subs more than KOs, its just a matter of taste.
And to be fair, 5 years ago the typical MMA fan was generally also a boxing fan, and very well educated on the sports and most of us trained.
Its just the big MMA boom that has turned lots of dump shits into MMA fans, but thats not really where to sports roots are, for what thats worth.
The OG MMA fans, like myself, arent like that at all.
Submissions can be more exciting than knockouts, it all depends on one's personal preferences. Personally I would say that there are more or less exciting cases of both.
