Are any of you boxing historians MMA Fans?

UFC, Ultimate Fighting Championship, they hold MMA fights, Mixed Martial Arts.

Well duh

The UFC doesn't have to sell to be popular, I'm not talking tickets and such. They are commonly known to be the Major Leagues of MMA, they attract fighters globally from everywhere. The common mindframe of aspiring MMA athletes is to get to the UFC to fight the best. If there is an MMA market in a country you can get bet the fighters wish/beg/hope to be in the UFC.

No,you said that the UFC is popular all over the world,Most people across the world don't know what the the hell the UFC or MMGAY are

you're not talking tickets? you're not talking ratings?? then what the hell are you talking about?

If you read it you would understand that had they not folded. Also there would be a chance that they would not have since they would no longer have any competition from the UFC.

My god,read your posts before you post them you dingbat.Affliction never achieved anything,their last two ppv's flopped badly in sales,flopped badly at the gate and in attendance and lost a huge profit all the while

they just cancelled their last show and had to cancel one last october because oF **** ticket sales.....that is not success.That is a huge and giant epic FAIL

Dream needs ratings yes, but ratings isn't all there is to the story. You obviously don't know much about Japanese fighting be it K-1 or Sengoku. MMA is VERY commonplace there.

Um yeah,ratings are all there is to the story,do you realise how pride died? they died because they lost their deal with Fuji Television.Dream's ratings have been poor,their attendances have been poor

mainstream japanese mma is dead and until you make a logical argument as to why it isn't then go away dingbat

Well 1) The sport is composed of them so it doesn't matter 2) They are not naked and you saying that would lead me to believe you have ****-****** thoughts about the sport 3) Its not just rolling around if someone is ****ing you up.


You should really try to have an open mind or at the very least not try to **** on the sport because you don't like it.

Like I said you can love both sports.

Last time I checked wearing spandex shorts and rolling around on the mat in high temperatures was...kinda gay

Prisoners are always *ucking each other up in their cells,but atleast their excuse is that they have been devoid of female company

what are MMGAY fighters excuse for such behaviour?

[princemanspoper]

WWE style advertising? Idk but I haven't see WWE promo ppv posters, WWE reality show, etc. But then again I would hope to god I wouldn't.

Um yeah,There's that reality series show called the ultimate fighter have you heard about it? well it's whole concept was taken from the wwe produced reality series called tough enough

research helps

Minus the M.. That's what you are...

stop trying to court me Malone,I don't take take advantage of weak internet pansies

Well duh

So why'd you say "pardon?"

If UFC is popular in NA so is MMA. Direct correlation, thats like saying NBA is popular but basketball is not.

No,you said that the UFC is popular all over the world,Most people across the world don't know what the the hell the UFC or MMGAY are

Sorry, how about a good portion. Don't know what MMA is, a lot do. Russians, Japanese, Americans, Chinese, Brazilians, Greeks, lots of Europeans, Koreans, Filipinos, Lots of places in South America, Canada, Great Britain, etc. And any market that has MMA, ALL fighters who want to be great desire to be in the UFC, thats a fact.

They had money to blow, and if you looked at their cards you would see they were GREAT, smart one. Given time I think they would have grown ESPECIALLY if UFC folded. Instead thinking purely about the stats of a young promotion why don't you look at other aspects of it.

they just cancelled their last show and had to cancel one last october because oF **** ticket sales.....that is not success.That is a huge and giant epic FAILp

THey canceled their last show due to last minute fighter controversy. Why don't you do some research before you spout off nonsense. Barnett was pinned for roids and they decided they could not find a suitable fighter to take on Fedor. The card was pretty good but they felt the title fight was too large a part.

Um yeah,ratings are all there is to the story,do you realise how pride died? they died because they lost their deal with Fuji Television.Dream's ratings have been poor,their attendances have been poor[



mainstream japanese mma is dead and until you make a logical argument as to why it isn't then go away dingbat

Really its dead, so you couldn't find a lot of people who know about it and follow it in Japan? What're you ******ed? Average knowledge about MMA in Japan is common. You'd be surprised apparently how many people know about. MMA is big over there, fact. Its not dead like you claim. Thats not the only reason why Pride died, sorry.

Last time I checked wearing spandex shorts and rolling around on the mat in high temperatures was...kinda gay

Prisoners are always *ucking each other up in their cells,but atleast their excuse is that they have been devoid of female company

what are MMGAY fighters excuse for such behaviour?

Last time I checked you can wear shorts, last time I checked you could stand up, last time I checked high temps weren't a requirement.

Thats good for prisoners, but you're ****-****** fantasy about MMA means nothing since it doesn't happen.

Seriously why do you act like MMA butt-****ed you? Is it because you are so insecure and scared MMA is taking away from boxing? Now you're gonna come out me with sales, stats, any other **** which furthers my thoughts of you being insecure.

Grow up, don't diss sports just cause you don't like em. Open your mind and not your mouth.

Boxing and MMA are both GREAT sports.

Go fight in an MMA match and lets see how you fare. You'd still say it was gay even though another guy did nothing **** to you and ****ed your ass up.

Obviously its not popular to say the least, I don't even remember hearing about it. TUF popularized the fighting reality show, Contender I liked as entertainment but not many people did.

that person youare talking about is a olympic gold medalist and he won it with a broken neck. what have you ever done in your life. your one of the ugliest people i have ever seen.

when is the last time you brushed your teeth, they are ****ing yellow. and when was the last time the hair of yours got a wash. and you need to get down to a gym you have a big fat bell and no shoulers.

and you are you to call anyone anything, you write poetry you ****ing *****. and you never had enough heart or balls to get in a cage or a ring.

****bag.

what a disgrace you are.

Correction: That's broken FREEKIN' kneck.....it's true, oh it's damn true.

When are you going to make a post without recycling Tunney's VERY stale insults.....can't you come up with anything on your own? Naw, you're just a parrott and a particularly low intellect one at that. So what grade did you drop out in? 5th or 6th?

I don't really care, I just wanted to attempt to enlighten some of you or at least reduce your intense dislike for no reason.

But w/e I like most Combat Sports and would be willing to give most a try.

you are going on like MMA fighters are the gods of fighting. At my gym the MMA fighters always get stomped in the ring even by amateurs.

also, some of the best fighters in the UFC are purely standup anyways only they are terrible at it. Look at Silvas boxing debut. Hilarious.

I should also point out, if you are quick on your feet and have sharp reflexes, it's very hard for a wrestler to get hold of you and get a successful takedown, especially if you are in the same weight class and possess similar strength.
