Seriously? No hating either but that sh!t is trash. Im not saying this because im a boxing fan..if it was good i could enjoy it, but watching grown men wrestle around on the ground Like their f-ing each other is suppose to be was hot these days. I swear alot of those matches remind me of the rahman-lewis pre fight brawl.
This is my last reply and ill let this thread die....props to all the guys who broke down the sport and put me on to some guys. Im gonna def. check out that anderson silva guy and that other jap guy. Now back to posting about mayweather cotto or paquiao.lol
Can someone please explain to me why is this shit on the boxing section?
These mma f.ags are just rying to convince themselves that this shit is better than boxing.
calm down junior.....i was just asking the board a question. I dont go to hardly any other sites and i know a few of you guys are fans on here. To make you happen i make sure my next thread is about either Mayweather/cotto or pacquiao...a topic that makes up 90% of whats posted on here.:grumble:
this jap is entertaining

This was pretty exciting to watch. I can appreciate this style of fighting since i reminds me alot of wwf/wcw wrestling (although fake) because those moves are really affective and take alot of skill to pull off.
Like armbars and takedowns will really help you with someone getting jumped by 3 or 4 attackers. Let's see mma guys take someone down on concrete without the help of an 8 foot fence.
Takedowns happen easily in freestyle wrestling, greco-roman wrestling, judo and sambo without the help of any fences.....

Of course not. Why the hell are you fighting three or four guys in the first place when you should be hauling tail as fast as you can.

look up Systema Sambo or Modern Combatives Program.

Notice me indicating ONE on ONE fighting in CAPS???
Put it this way......MMA is a lot closer to real ONE ON ONE FIGHTING than boxing....i am a fan of both...
BTW, a top MMA fighter will most likely win a top Boxer in the same weight...
Fighting in reality is not going to be pretty and fanciful like in the movies..... whatever works best in combat is not always pretty...
peace

I think its great, and so do some boxers, clearly tyson and ali have been to K1 and MMA shows, and Foreman said "i love the UFC, a wish it was around when i was younger because if a did that a bet no one would have pulled the rope-a-dope on me" its in the ring mag when they have stuff thats fighters have said
I am a fan of both sports...both sports got their fair share of boring matches,even main events...
I love the atmosphere of a boxing gym.... i like to train like a boxer.. but MMA deserves respect too....

Hey mikedb1984, just wanted to say sorry for how I responded, shouldn't have been so aggressive in retrospect.
Part of the appeal of MMA is that people are beginning to accept that fighting is not just limited to standing up and striking. Grappling is as technically intricate as striking, and just as effective a method of finishing a fight.
if you don't like it then don't watch it.
don't make threads about it in a boxing forum as well.
go to sherdog.com
I agree. Each to his own (I don't like UFC).
Being childish and bitching about it just makes you as bad as the idiot MMA fans that talk petty garbage about boxing.
I've been watching the UFC since before it was banned from television. It was much different then because it wasn't as widespread. To me MMA is doing what boxing did in the 20's and 30's which is give young men who otherwise don't have much going on something to focus on and this is why gyms pop up everyday in this country.
I'm not too interested in it right now, its still in its formative stages. I don't like the lack of referee'ing, the rules are getting better about hitting while down but I get pissed when I see someone knocked out and watch the other guy jump on top of him pounding him even though he's obviously unconcious. I don't like the cut and paste skill set being handed out and I see a real lack of personality in the fights, not alot of break out fighters in my opinion.
Why are some of you idiots telling him not to talk about this on this forum, do I need to go through all your posts to dig up completely off topic discussions you all have been involved in? fuck man people can talk about whatever the fuck they want on here. And UFC is not my thing either. They way they run things, the kind of people tht are into it, the sport itself, rolling around with a man, smelly bare feet, just not my thing
