what do you prefer to watch (thoughts on UFC fight)

[baya]

What do people prefer watching, an MMA fight last night with both men trading throughout and both getting wobbled, 3 knockdowns, big shots landed and almost constant edge of seat action and momentum shifts? Or fighters like ward, rigondeaux, klitschko, lara and their most recent performances? Discuss...

i don't think any sane person, unless directly related, would watch a lara or klit fight over a fight like last nights.

Boxing. Who wants to watch guys roll around with each other for an hour?

Neither guy rolled around at all in that fight

I dont get why ppl just cant enjoy both boxing and MMA. You have to be a bias boxing fanboy to say that fight yesterday wasnt entertaining.

i dunno mate i would have thought the fight last night would have got stopped last night if it was a boxing ref, with diaz's' cut.

Nah. But Tony Weeks would have stopped McGregor in the 3rd.

Nate Diaz is definitely considered one of the toughest fights in his weightclass. 2/3ds of the fights he lost, he didn't really lose and he has beaten some bad ass guys incl one guy that's on a mean streak right now in Cowboy Cerrone.

Is he a long time championship fighter? No. But he has never been given any favours whatsoever and was always matched hard.

Yup, main problem with boxing right now. When porter and thurman fought it lived up to the hype and was fireworks, boxing needs more of that and less cherry picking. FIghters cant cherry pick in the UFC .

Boxing every fooking day over that ugly ass sport.

Ain't that the truth. You can watch Unimas or Bein sports and see bloody action wars like this regularly. Or stream those fights in japan. These whiny b**** only watch 1 fight per month then cry that there are no action fights.

These dudes can't admit it but boxing is just not for them. And that's OK. It's not intended to be an insult. Just am observation.

McGregor goes life and death with the Brandon Rios of MMA and suddenly MMA is epic 2 pub brawlers swinging with the most horrible of technique

Is this even a serious question? Yes UFC can be . . . Entertaining, but the striking is just toooo sloppy for me to admire. Chins in the air, arms swinging away. That little asian guy that lost to Perry. . . That dude had no chin protection at all. Granted is probably more difficult to block/parry 4oz gloves but still, the lack of head movement or real ability to control range is just an irk that stops me fully enjoying the sport.

I like good fights... Good matchups with both guys trying to win..

Doesn't matter the styles, just want to see great matchups and fights.

Too often guys just go for the decision and look to survive, instead of actually trying to beat an opponent.

People say floyd is boring, but when the other guy comes to fight ie castillo, hatton, cotto, Oscar, Maidana, then floyd is in entertaining fights

Nowhere else can they do it like boxing
