    Hey. :cool:

    MMA's pretty popular in the Philippines. People here watch both boxing and MMA without hating the other sport. I've been watching MMA fights since UFC I.

    Yeah. We saw it on local cable TV back in the early to mid 1990's.

    It's funny, because in boxing, I love the brawler/slugger types, but in MMA, I like the complete opposite and prefer the slick, technical, defensive, stand up sharpshooter kind of fighters.

    I like Machida, Anderson Silva, GSP and BJ Penn. And Pedro Rizzo some time back.

    All really top fighters. I like Machida and Fedor the best. Think i must be the same as you - Machida reminds me of Mayweather but where Floyd usually bores the hell out me i love watching Machida.

    Speaking of Joe Rogan's comments...


    "...the only guy with bigger hands than Brock Lesnar!"

    I'm like, ok and what's the big deal with bigger hands?

    I like Carwin, but i figure somethings are pretty irrelevant sometimes.

    Randy Couture was also a cardio machine.

    Rampage and Anderson Silva are monsters.

    Lastly, almost every guy is "one of the best strikers/grapplers in the history of MMA."

    WTF?!

    A lot of people love MMA, there's no need to stretch reality.

    I'm picking Machida over Evans, just for the record.
