UFC noob looking for advice and guidance

Koscheck is still a contender, but his KO loss vs Paulo Thiago set him back. He is the second best wrestler at 170, but he is in love with his striking, since he has very fast hand and knock out power, but his technic is lacking..

its the website I use for watching all fight. Really great site.
Jose Aldo is a name you need to remember, check his highlight, the kid is CRAZY good

 

Pride was a Japanese organisation that was bought up buy the UFC a couple of years back. Pride was crazier in a number of ways, as you could probably tell from the video, Pride didn't have an upper weight limit, so sometimes fighters would have to fight freaks and giants. I don't know of any specific differences in rules, but I'd say that my general impression was that Pride was a lot more violent and that fights were allowed to go on for a lot longer after one fighter had gone down.

 

mma-core is awesome bro there isnt much you cant find there.

 

:hi: D-Mac

A lot of fights mentioned there probably all the greats. Get yourself into some Pride fights there were great. If you can get into demonoid.com they have a good selection of torrents i would send you an invite but im a complete tool :good

 

I don't think that there's that much of a difference, but if had to pick one over the other, I'd go with the ropes. The cage gives the aggressor an unfair advantage, as it's harder to put any force into your punches when you're up against the wall. The ropes give a level playground in that regard.
