    Anthony Pettis is my favorite fighter. He is very exciting to watch


    I like fighters who stand up and exchange punches and kicks.


    The only part i dont like about this UFC stuff is the grapaling. I hate that wrestling shit
    The Wrestling rolling around on the mat shit dry humping each other is gay as fukk.

    i cant even watch that shit.

    But i love watching muay tai kickboxing

    yeah and these guys are not thugs for the most part. A lot of fighters are very disciplined and show respect to everyone.

    its all about controlled agression

    Shit is so stupid anyway. Fukking braindead idiots beating the hell out of each other.

    I guess I am in the minority, i love it. I like betting it, I like watching it and I like training in it. Like anything the more you know the better it is. I do not see hit being fixed. It is not boxing, try getting in a ring and getting the shiiit kicked out of you. I will admit there are some duds in it and some match ups are not great, but overall I enjoy them.
    I think having a knowledge of the strategy behind it gives you an edge to bet these match ups. I have made good money betting it this past year.

    nfl should get rid of helmets, because the animals that play the game, instead of using them as protection use them as weapons to hurt another human being, look what happened the other day to cleveland kicker


    edit* i should apologize to animals, because the truth is the only species that enjoys violence is the homo sapien

    MMA is the greatest. I love it even more than nfl. From a betting perspective it's amazing. 15 minutes and your bet is graded and move on to the next. So much fun.

    It it may seem boring to someone who doesn't understand it just like any other sport. Once you begin to understand the nuances like head position, transitions, submissions, positional advantages, etc. it becomes much more interesting.

    As far as barbaric, sure it is. No more than boxing though.

    So excited for tonight.

    I'm going to start a thread about why I don't like tennis. Should be a good read. Look for it.

    Like anyone here wouldn't tune in for Dwight Howard vs. LeBron James in an MMA match...

    It's an entertaining sport, and the brutalizing isn't what makes it entertaining. At least not to me and many other fans of the sport. I enjoy watching the Jiu Jitsu aspect of the game more than just a boxing slug fest. If you understand what's going on in the ground game... I dunno how you can possibly not enjoy the sport. But to a lot of people it just looks like two sweaty guys humping each other.

    Also a good sport for betting... especially the undercard. I've got Tibau and Siver tonight.
