    MMA is filled with a bunch of Glass Jawed fighters (many of whom are nothing but failed Boxers BTW) that make peanuts for getting their faced torn to shreds.

    I have seen drunk frat boys in bar fights that throw better punches than these MMA fighters.

    The **** is boring as hell who wants to see 2 guys roll around on the ground for 5 plus minutes? I would rather watch John Ruiz.

    Exactly! That's why most MMA fans hate Brock. They know by him wining it hurts the credibility of their sport in the long run.:deal The very fact that a guy can come from a fake sideshow like the WWF and win a HW championship in months while others train for years says that it's not a very high skilled sport. I see this and others do as well. You would never see a guy come from the WWF come into boxing and win a HW champinship in a few months it wouldn't happen. MMA is a joke.

    The credential's for one of the fighters who will be on TUF10 along with Kimbo is laughable....

    I can. Tyson had the speed, explosiveness, footwork, strength and the nastiness to pull it off. Not to mention he would have had most of them beat before they even left the dressing room. He would catch one of those guys with a upper cut coming in for a takdown and put them in a coma.

    Please that was a shot to **** Tyson. I'm taling about the prime Tyson who has excellent head movement defense one shot KO power and speed to burn. He would be too much for these unskilled bums because the fight would never make it to the ground. As wide open as these guys come in he would land on them like rain on a tin roof.:deal

    This guy thinks that the only group there is are 18-30 year old white men from the suburbs.

    And he says boxing is with pillow gloves.

    This guy has never been in a fight in his life.

    Funny as hell isn't it? I'm sure within a year some of these guys will be challenging Lesner for his title.:lol: How anyone can excuse this is beyond me.
