    The guys that aren't usually have a wrestling/boxing background like Randy Coture and he's suplimented his base skills by learning basic Ju Jitsu.

          Why do you people keep bringing up Kimbo Slice? Most MMA fans correctly view him as a side show attraction ala Erich "butterbean" Esch. So please shut the *** up about him.

            As a person who enjoys MMA. I have to agree with you here.

            I say it all the time. I can literally all name the guys in the UFC who are legit martial artists.

            Anderson Silva
            Georges St. Pierre (don't count his BJJ black belt though, it's fake.)
            BJ Penn
            Kenny Florian
            Lyoto Machida
            Antonio Noguiera
            Rogerio Noguiera
            Frank Mir
            Dong Hyun Kim
            Yoshiyuki Yoshida
            Demian Maia
            Dan Hardy


            Out of the entire UFC. Those guys are the only legit martial artists. None of this "I learned BJJ in 2 years for MMA". They literally put in work in the martial art game before ever getting interested in MMA.

                Just because idiot hardcore MMA fans said Boxing is dead doesn't make Dana responsiable for it. In fact hardcore boxing fans are just as guilty as MMA fans for perpetuating the myth that boxing is dead.


                The whole boxing is dead thing is just something that came out of idiot Boxing fans and Idiot MMA fans arguing over which sport is better.

                Boxing fans call MMA gay and MMA fans call boxing dead, both observations are ***ing ******.
                If you can't admit that Dana White and the UFShe pushed a "boxing is dead" marketing campaign, I can't do nothing for you.

                Dane White has always said he's a fan of or he loves boxing in one breath and ****ted on it in the same breath and with the next.

                See, you're trying to put some on blame boxing fans for defending and entertaining something that UFShe and its fans created. Not only did y'all create it, y'all wanted to act and ialk like y'all had been the killers or the reason why "it's dead".

                You guys are basically the Mayweather Sr. to our Pacquiao.

                The UFShe and its fans perpetuated a bad rumor, were boxing fans supposed to sit there and take it? If you say something enough, people will believe it, whether it's true or not.

                  Wrestling isn't a martial art. Well, technically it is part of fighting but it isn't a fighting discipline. It's just imposing your physical strength on your opponent.

                  I didn't name only bjj guys though.


                  GSP- Kyokushin karate
                  Anderson Silva- Taekwondo, Judo, Capoeira, muay thai (bjj also)
                  Dong Hyun Kim- Judo
                  Yoshiyuki Yoshida- Judo
                  Lyoto Machida- Shotokan karate
                  Kenny Florian- Muay Thai (bjj also tho)
                  Dan Hardy- Taekwondo, Northern Shaolin Martial Arts

                  The only two guys who use Muay Thai right in the UFC is Anderson and KenFlo.

                    I have always said that if you don't like MMA fine but why bash other people for liking it? Don't be mad at m,e because I get double the entertainment from both Boxing and MMA while all you got to watch is boxing.



                    Seriously why are you guys so "thretened" by MMA?
                    because it's gay. in general North Americans don't like to roll around with other dudes half-naked in the missionary position or doggy-style.

                    why do you think WWE cut out all of the ground game aspects of wrestling and only kept the stand up game and added to it plastic folding chairs and aluminum ladders?

                    because that **** is gay.

                      i didnt know punching down in someones face is gay or elbowing someone or breaking an arm or breaking a leg or choking somone out is gay.When have you ever seen WWE do that?and when have you ever seen WWE keep "the stand up game" and box?i don't know what part of north america youre from but wrestling is pretty big.
