What is anon complaining about?

I mean, even if Fedor did grab the rope, it wouldn't matter. Lindland only got under Fedor in the first place because he grabbed the rope first in the... I don't know 0:08 into the actual match. If anything, Fedor did it as revenge, and then we see/hear Lindland cheat again when the ref tells him to let go of his own pants. Not to mention the fight was settled in the middle of the ring not at the ropes.

Whether or not he did grab onto the ropes doesn't matter. It's not a fight decider like Tyson bitin' on some mother fucker's ears.

That big lipped "greatest current boxer" floyd mayweather didn't want to fight shawn sherk, the current ufc lightweight champ. Dude fucking pussied out as soon as sherk was at the delahoya fight. Fucking niggers. Boxing = full of street niggers, btw ufc > boxing in ppv. boxing is dead.

Boxers aren't skilled even to compete in MMA, which is why they stick to their glorified old-mans sport.

Boxers _are_ skilled, but they make the mistake of going in there expecting something familiar in terms of fighting. Bell rings, fighters close up, beat at eachother and defend, repeat until loss/victory. Instead, they get a sweaty man-groin in their face.

MMA is lots of skill, I'll give it that, but it's a fucking boring and even frustrating sport when 70-90%(to pull a number out of my ass) of the matches are ended by some kind of submission move after 6-7 rounds of squirming on the floor.

Chuck? Blasphemy! We all know Mirko actually delivered a head kick with so much force it divided by zero and created a pime taradox which resulted in him K.O'ing himself.

in UFC there are 3 rounds, 5 in a champ match.

Whats wrong with submission? Submissions are fucking awesome, how can you not like the skill of catching someone with a triangle choke from the bottom of the guard? People who dont like the ground game in MMA should not be watching MMA. They should go watch bare knuckle boxing or something because clearly all they want is someone getting knocked out.

I do believe he's confusing wrestlers with BJJ practitioners. Even though now days most MMA fighters with a wrestling BG have ground and pound tactics in their arsenal. Still, though, you see a lot of lay and pray from wrestlers in the UFC.

True, and that's why I don't watch MMA. Too few highlights so to speak, and I can't honestly say that I put these MMA boys on level with the better boxers.

It's not that I don't think they have enough skill, it's rather because in MMA you don't get to see anything of what they _really_ can do. Boxers can't avoid showing their technique, endurance, and raw strength, but in MMA there's an anticlimactic feeling whenever a hold is initiated.

Well submission is different than lay and pray. Also MMA skill is on display just as much as boxing. You just need to be educated to see it. Stuff like defending take downs, reacting to a low kick, its all skill that alot of people dont see. Boxing can be boring as shit, but its still skillfull.

same postern as above again

Also, MMA fighters could do flying roundhouses and stuff, but its not effective. The style you see predominately in MMA is the style that wins fights. It has been concentrated from all the fighting styles ever tried in MMA, and this is what works best.

It's just what I think, but I can't find myself seeing MMA grappling as "battle" or even so much as a contest. Sure, it's the effective method, you'll win, but it sure as hell ain't fun to watch and I just get frustrated by it.

Linked video just made me horrendously bored, I just wanted it to be over. You might like it though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G2y5fBxSL0&mode=related&search=

I want to agree with that, but I can't.

If that was the case, everyone would be doing what Fedor does.

Boxers aren't weak, that is for damn sure, look at Butterbean. He entered the MMA area because it was attracting a lot more attention than boxing was. Granted, he basically proves that boxers aren't as effective in the MMA ring no matter how awesome they may be in the boxing ring.

He wins fights, but he only wins if he can get off a right hook, otherwise he is going to lose. An example of this would be Cro Cop. Awesome fighter, but he wins the majority of his fights through that left high kick of his. Even then, as Fedor proved indefinitely, it is a bad idea to rely on one sort of move.

How many of you actually saw the various ways he countered Cro Cop's kicks? It was amazing.

Also, I could care less really for the more spectacular things like roundhouses and super-heavy uppercuts and all that drivvel, it's just the grappling that destroys MMA and whatnot for me.

>>479357
And you have BJJ to thank for that. BJJ basically eliminates all stand-up fighting, which is what idiots with short attention spans and no real grasp for the concept of the sport want to see.

Also, I hate the faggot UFC fans. I've watched tons of PRIDE FC fights, and their audience appreciate the fighter's game-plan and techniques. In the UFC, if the fighter's want to take a minute to assess their opponents, the faggot fans start booing. Pisses me off.

Go to youtube and watch the Mark Hunt V.S. Fedor fight.

This one? It wasn't nearly as bad as the vid I posted before, but it was still _bad_. Two clumsy guys flopping around all over eachother.

Signed. Maybe it's just me being mildly claustrophobic or something, but whenever I see grapplers lying there kicking and squirming, I just get really put off.

I'd love to see a boxer get out of anything that either of those two did.

And the 'flopping around' should only bug you if you are taking it in the context that they are trying to perform sexual intercourse on one another. And they aren't.

A good example of what all that 'flopping' can lead to is in the picture I just uploaded.

Of course a boxer wouldn't, he doesn't need to and I doubt he trains for it. And if you're in it for the skullcracking punches, then you might as well watch boxing.

It might be like>>479433said and I'm claustrophobic, but I simply don't like grappling and grapplers. Even though I _know_ there's _alot_ of finesse and skill to it, I can't feel any of it.

Boxing is one form of fighting.... Striking thats all, and kickboxing is more , but still not close to things you can do in mma such as submissions ground and pounds , and they wear small thin gloves to protect there hands not boxing gloves.

I believe that grappling fans are the true hardcore MMA fans. Everyone else is just there to see Chuck throw bombs, or Tito's ground and pound, because let's face it UFC fans are retarded. Keep in mind that there's a difference between an MMA fan and a UFC fan.

Also, for anyone interested in "getting into" and understanding MMA, watch some of the UFC fights with Joe Roggan as one of the announcers. He may be a wannabe, but he knows his shit, and he explains what the fighters are trying to do, what they should do and why.

If you guys have Spike TV, watch The Ultimate Fighter this Thursday. There'll be a "streetfight" with two of the competitors.

Also, 'Rampage gone whoop Chuck's ass!' On Saturday.

I think retired or fighters on relax time till there next fight should be commentators look at randy he knows what hes talking about, joe rogan just reads other reviews of judges, other fighters, and then copys them... hes annoying and the other guy on ufc is lame to.
