    I guess I should start following UFC, LOL. It may sound ignorant, but I had never heard of either of those 2, LOL. The only non-Boxing Fighters I had even hear of were Ronda Rousey and that chick who beat her.

      Ya I hope I get that opportunity 1 Day. Just wondering....do U Speak Italian or Spanish? And if not, is it a bit of a barrier in terms of communication, etc.? Thats why I was thinking, if I do travel abroad (my family is from India, and my wife's from Philippines), I'd probably start with places like England, Australia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, etc., because English is widely Spoken in those areas. My wife, as a Filipina-American, does Speak Spanish, so That helps if we were to go to Spain, Latin America, etc. I Know we're getting waaay off topic of Boxing, my bad.
      It depends, a lot of big cities that are used to tourists have a lot of people that understand english. I can at least hold my own with Spanish so I was at an advantage there, but I don't know any Italian. Luckily in places like Rome, Venice, Florence etc, most people speak at least a little English. Btw, Australia and New Zealand are awesome places, go if you ever get the chance. I still haven't been to the UK yet, but it's next on my list. Will definitely be timing it up so I catch some big fights when I do go!

        That makes sense! Great Fight country in UK! Well, u Know Spanish, so That's Cool. My wife Knows it so I guess we'd be fine. LOL, other than being born in India (and my parents coming here when I was like 2 Months Old), I havent been out of the US (except to Canada). Would like to see other places too!

          Jones was a good fighter before he started getting trouble outside the octagon. Cormier is decent but he's a better wrestler. Demetrius Johnson is probably the best UFC fighter but he's in a lower weight class. Cody Galbraith is a good up and comer. On the female side the ones from Eastern Europe and Brazil are the better fighters. I started watching sporadically about 10 years ago but I'll watch more often now,

            Thanks! What about that guy Chuck Lidell? Is he still 1 of the top guys?
            Its my fault for not following. I (obviously wrongly) thought of UFC as sort of the minor leagues of Boxing. Of course It really isn't.
