OP Here

I'll be watching both. I'll watch UFC live on Spike, and watch Affliction once high quality downloads are available.

Affliction's card is the best non-UFC card since PRIDE got bought out.

Affliction's shirts look so awful it is no wonder the UFC banned them.

Their fight league isn't a disease. Their clothing line, however, most certainly is.

Does Affliction take place in a ring or cage?

I couldn't find anything about it on their website.

Dood... beating each other up, but doing it in a ring, getting money into it and calling it "mixed martial arts" makes it a sport.

Anyone who isn't a faggot, and realizes what good MMA is? UFC's card is weak as fuck. Affliction is good, but insanely predictable.

Crap!

Cages are so much better because you don't have all those restarts because of the ropes.

Dream: A bunch of Japs and Joachim Hansen

Affliction: A bunch of has beens fighting unknowns

UFC: Anderson Silva fighting someone bigger than him who'll probably go down anyway and a bunch of mismatches

And the cage sucks. There's absolutely no corners and tons of space. It's designed to stifle strikers who want to press the fight. Boring as shit. I'll take frequent stoppages to real action to consistant circlin' any day.

Fixed.

That's more true of the division than the promotion. All 145 and down fighters are well conditioned and elite athletes because there's very few sports competing for their participation.

Bruce Lee would get destroyed by a mediocre mixed martial artist.

There's a very good reason traditional martial arts never show up in MMA.

name one reason the ring is better
>> Anonymous
>>220856

Because the ring is a million times easier to press the action in. Sure there's stoppages but if a guy wants to chase you down it's going to happen. If he wants to hit you it's going to happen. The octagon is built for dancers like Royce. There's no shame in that, he was giving up a lot of pounds back in the day. But the octagon should be scrapped. At least make it a smaller, square cage.

i'd be watching silva if either.

silva kicking some guys ass real quick? thats just fun.

Its pretty easy spotting the MMA newfag. He will be the one wearing an Affliction shirt, stud ear rings, and ricking the blowout.

>>220291There's a very good reason traditional martial arts never show up in MMA.

-GSP and Ryoyo Machida started out doing karate (you can see a bit of it in their striking).
-Brazilian jiujitsu was obviously based off traditional Japanese jiujitsu.
-There are several Judo practitioners on UFC's roster today.
-And pretty much everybody has to learn a bit of Muy Thai to be effective in the cage.

"Traditional" martial arts techniques are still being used in modern MMA.

Bruce Lee isn't about traditional forms about martial arts, his whole story was about changing the dumb fixed positions and making fighting more fluid...asshats

ah yes, one of the select group of people that are attaching themselves to lesser known brand in the hopes that it one day topples the big names and they can take pride in being the original supporters and not some bandwaggoners.
