Plastic cage for MMA

**Vaughany** · 10-22-13, 05:16 AM

No more grabbing the fence, possibly better judging. People pay top dollar for front row seats then crane their necks to look at the big screen.

in addition to grabbing the fence, the cage also gives other advantages to a grounded fighter such as "wall walking" and preventing the top fighter from executing certain maneuvers.

they should just use a ring surrounded by little japanese dudes to keep fighters from falling out.

it would never happen though, as the octagon is a big part of the ufc brand at this point.

Would prolly have to come from smaller promotions and get attention.

Gaberz suggested using bouncy castles instead, what do you think of that idea?

It was the plan with the original UFC Octagon. People thought Davies might actually haul it out for the Yamma Pit.

**The iron sheik** · 10-22-13, 12:17 PM

they also planned for an electric fence

I think they should get rid of decisions. Perhaps after three rounds regardless of who seems to be winning, the fight should go to overtime and the overtime will be fought with baseball bats.

or uzis, whichever seems fitting.

Should've suggested that during the Shamrock/Magnum PI fight, that shit was excruciating.

**hobbesITD** · 10-22-13, 02:30 PM

They should do it like Rio Heroes where every other fighter on the card stands in a circle and pushes the fighters back if they get too close.

**Thor4140** · 10-22-13, 03:12 PM

i have always said they shuld use a standard ring. That was one reason Pride was so good. Fence grabbing may be one of the biggest game changers a guy could use.

What about rolling in between the ropes?!!

**PaperTrail07** · 10-22-13, 03:56 PM

I feel if you toss the guy outta the cage it should count as a KO LOL....

Just like Virtua Fighter.

Things like that get annoying... can't push someone up against the ropes on the ground. Course a solid wall may be too good to push the guy up against without him being able to climb it.

**Noleafclover** · 10-22-13, 09:03 PM

Plastic sheeting maybe, no handholds.

**The iron sheik** · 10-23-13, 01:32 AM

How about mandatory finger and toe amputation? It solves most problems. Perhaps not the toes but you'd just look funny so they go too!

-It will severely reduce eye pokes
-You can't grab the fence, shorts etc.

Most of all, without fingers you'll have less of that really really gay grappling shit.

Oh yeah, thanks for reminding:

the fingers and the toes must go, and a castration to eliminate nut shots

**PaperTrail07** · 10-23-13, 10:28 AM

Haha for sure...Man that brings back memories....great game

Only flaw. Ring much better than the Cage. Ring stops these dancers who run around in circles. Tough to cut them off. Trap them in the corner of a ring.

**Noleafclover** · 10-24-13, 01:57 AM

Another simple change would be 5-judge panels.

There's still grabbing the ropes to prevent a td, which is probably even more effective than grabbing the fence. It just needs to be enforced better. Both in the grabbing and not having the ref yell "don't grab the fence" if a guy breaths on it too hard.

Fedor use to love to grab that rope. Just feel the ring seems to make fights more exciting. rope is a little more tougher to grab than a fence tho yo.
