WTF! Bob is out there. There are certian demographics who enjoy both the sport of boxing and MMA. It's completely false to say it's a bunch of skin heads in MMA!:rofl MMA In my opinion isn't as good or entertaining as boxing b/c boxing is the sport I love. But I respect MMA fighters and the sport as a whole. They put themselves through a lot in order to make a living in a very harsh sport. And I respect the skills and art of MMA, just as I do boxing. Bob is trashing MMA b/c he's a BOXING promoter. And MMA has taken some $$$ from his pocket. And as a jew.....he throws in the race card and implies that the mass majority of MMA fighters are skin heads. Completely untrue. I don't mind having a preference for boxing or MMA, but as a "FIGHT" fan I enjoy most combat sports and boxing as well as MMA offer this aspect to thier audience. Respect should be given to each sport even if you don't like it. I don't like soccer but I respect it. Bob is too funny and too old. He's getting progressively out of hand.
What I find exciting and intriguing about MMA is when two guys stand there and slug it out. That isn't what Mixed Martial Arts is, though. There are a few exceptions to the rule, ones I was referring to when I used the word exciting, but generally MMA bores me to tears. What they are selling isn't very good, but sometimes a knockout can happen - and that is undeniably exciting.
Since when is Melvin Costa well-known? He had a few fights in KOTC until people got upset about his tats then he got barred from the promotion. The guy hasn't fought in two years, and his only real claim to fame is being a neo-nazi who competed in a semi respected MMA promotion.
He makes an excellent point about the Chins of MMA fighters they are awful. Guys getting KOed by Jabs all the time doing the chicken dance from a Jab it is pitiful. If these guys could fight they would be Boxers making real money.
