Originally posted by THE REAL NINJAthanks i'll check it out ...dont get me wrong i know who most of them are and all i still watch mma but i lost a lot of love for it after the old UFC days..it should have stayed the same 'no weight classes '
Boxing: Manny Pacquiao vs Valuev
MMA: Fedor vs Matt Hughes
Not a fair match, but MMA should at least have an open weight fight once in a while. I would like to see Ken Shamrock(self confessed nuthugger here) vs Royce Gracie for a trilogy.
Also, go to a bookstore, u don't have to buy it, a book called "No Holds Barred", its about the history of MMA. Great book.Comment

There is also ranking in welterweight and lightweight.
If interested in learning about MMA history, schedules, results, and fighters, here are some websites:
www.sherdog.com and its forum, www.sherdog.net
www.mmaweekly.com
If u joined the forum sherdog.net, u can ask the history of MMA, there are some members who have more knowledge in MMA. They also have a section in boxing, kickboxing, grappling and stand up technique. Go join to find out more about MMA but don't bash MMA or u will be attack by a pack of wolves.
Some MMA magaines: Grappling mag, Tap Out, and Full Contact Fighter. The mags show some techniques of MMA and grappling. If ur gonna buy one or subscribe to it, i recommend Tap Out.
Also, go to www.youtube.com, type in Pride fighting, it will show some highlights from Pride.
