Man,UFC is a nonstop hugfest tonight,and boxing gets criticized?

[1bad65]

Are you comparing MMA to golf? Golf is a very dramatic and suspense filled sport...

I'll bite... You are kidding, right?

I wish I knew how to make those Gifs. I'd make one of sherk when he was pulling out his leg while on the ground to get in full guard, it looked like he was humping his opponent.

yeah. i saw that man. i was gonna shout it out loud but my son was with me so i had to contain my reaction.

tiger woods> all MMA fighters

Thing about Sherk is he's a neutralizer, not much a finisher. He can take any situation and pretty much stop it and be dominate. The dude's overcausious though. He ain't never going to finish. Just work the cards. Notice how not once he stayed in the same position or took a rest.

That's not saying that neutralizing isn't fun to watch, it is. It's just the special herb and ****e is the will to finish.

I just think it's funny that Sherk trains the Brocks. Both are great finishers.

You do know that finishing a BJJ black belt on the ground is not exactly a simple task don't you?

[Lethal]

i had to sit down and watch 25 minutes of grapling on the ground by the lightweight champ who claims he can beat Floyd Mayweather

Sean Sherk CAN beat Floyd. Sherk took KNEES to the face and immediately proceeded to lockdown on Franca. You honestly think Floyd's "uppercut" attempts that u guys say "works" would actually work? Get the **** out of here.

,the crowed booed every single round and hated it,now im watching Tito fight,its the same,nonstop holding.

The crowd booed somewhat during the Klitchko fight. Crowd booed alot during the Holyfield fight. Crowds boo, especially when they're drunk in Las Vegas. The crowd started to boo in Oscar vs. Floyd but Oscar saved the fight by throwing flurries.

The thing that pisses me of is,nearly a whole UFC card can be boring with the crowed booing the matches,but it still gets praised,while boxing gets criticized if ONE fighter has a boring match,boxings 'dying' because of a PPV that didnt live up to the hype,****s disgusting.

That's the thing. The PPV was NOT boring. The thing is, you like every other boxing fan in this site tend to watch UFC with a BIAS so that u can criticise anything they do. We don't watch boxing with intent to hate on it. If it's boring we criticise it. Jabbing and running is what Floyd made people pay $55, and possibly $65 if u count snacks, add that and terrible undercards and you got some pissed off people. Not everyone was upset at the(last night's) card. There were alot of cheers, you were just so eager to hear boos so u can be "backed up" in your pathetic attempt at hating on UFC or MMA in general. Boxing has a lot of jabbers and runners, but yet you guys act like we should appreciate the sweet science when you guys fail to even understand the sport of MMA. Very hypocritical and if I recall correctly it was BOXING that started talking **** about MMA. Stop watching MMA and go watch your boxing, honestly this hate on MMA is ****ing ridiculous. Just shut the **** up and stop bitching.

Boxing has had a great year in 2007 with more exciting fights to happen,i just wish people would appreciate the sport more

And I wish idiots like you would appreciate MMA more or at least attempt to understand the scenarios.

Sean Sherk dominated a brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blackbelt, do you think Floyd would do the same? He's not strong enough to have kept Franca controlled, HELL NO def. not strong enough.

i actually thought the tito vs. rashad fight was a very good one...both are great wrestlers and to see how they stuff each others attempt to slam each other down was great....the good thing about the ufc is that the best usually do fight the best in their primes unlike boxing....thats a big difference i see......

That's a big problem for boxing too. Money hungry people who can't be satisfied with their 20 million dollars.

Yeh the best always do fight the best in UFC,but still,boxing has great fights,especially this year,the best are beggining to fight the best in each weight

Pacman-Barrera
Williams-Margarito
Hopkins-Wright
Taylor-Pavlik
Vasquez-Marquez
Calzaghe-Kessler
Mormeck-Haye
Floyd-Hatton (?)

1st fight: old
2nd: don't jinx it
3rd: def. gonna be boring, come on now be for real
4th hopefully Jermain doesnt **** it up for the fans like floyd did in his last fight
5th good fight
6th dont jinx it
7th ????
8th dont jinx it

lol @ u listing mostly future fights

Boxing has had many stacked cards thoughout its whole history.

No it hasn't. He also means on paper btw.

I have watched EVERY UfC PPV for the last 3 years (for free, I'd never pay for that ****) and I have yet to see anything that would have me jump the ship from boxing to MMA.

That's the thing...we're not trying to get boxing fans to ditch their sport and watch MMA. Watch both , I mean **** YOU guys are the first to criticise. I don't remember any boxing hate threads, leave MMA the **** alone if you dislike it. The more you hate on grappling and the ground game without even training it or at least understanding it...the more hate can go towards jab and runners.

UFC is not a hugfest..its a HUMPfest..it was better when UFC first started out..strictly stand up fighting, not wrestling

Wow that was a ******ed post. When UFC first started out they were basically trying to see which style would win in a fight...boxing, wrestling or martial artist...the BJJ dude schooled everyone. don't say some ****** **** like "they were garbage" becuz fame doesnt equal skill.

I wish I knew how to make those Gifs. I'd make one of sherk when he was pulling out his leg while on the ground to get in full guard, it looked like he was humping his opponent.

And I can make a gif full of jab and runners...what's your point?

The fights I saw werent that bad. I missed the Sylvia fight and thats the one I wanted to see.

Yeah but boxing fans looovveee to hate on MMA so any and everything is garbage.

Free, so what? I hate golf, I think it's a boring 'sport'. Even though it's on alot and it's free, I don't watch it, and I sure don't watch it then go ***** about how boring it was.

Your right in that it takes skill, but so does golf, and I don't watch it cause it bores me.

Exactly.

You do know that finishing a BJJ black belt on the ground is not exactly a simple task don't you?

They don't. They're a bunch of fat ****ing idiots.

[demirturk]
