i guess your a *** then!!!! j/k. the funniest thing about these losers is that not only are they stupid enough to waste 3 hours watching something they hate, they then proceed to spent hours trashing it on websites and scouring forums for other losers just like them. waaay tooo much time and energy for something that one hates. it was an ok card for me. no complaints as it was free. Hamill got robbed in a good fight. CroCop's fight was the only real disapointment of the night for me.
Oh hell yeah Hamill was robbed that was nothing more than a home town call ..And yeah Cro Cop was disapointing but then again Congo is a beast as well he just need to fine tune his ground skills .
but least there was some ring craft and natural skill it was nie to see a guy on top of his prime not being hit and landing his own...it may have been boring but mma can get really really bad if the guys are jack of all trades. can see your point in that it goes both ways but man mma can be rubbish especially the uk version they are mostly martial art styl peeps who have great technique but dont know how to engage. in boxing the whole point of the fight i to set him up in mma it's not like that.
:rofl:rofl:rofl That was funny. Apparently no one who posted in this thread saw the first two fights.
I find it amusing how certain persons race into the MMA forum after a fight to trash it. Hmmm, you'd think if they hate it so much they'd just steer clear of discussing it altogether, instead of tossing off a drive by post that is neither educated or enlightened.
I can't stand mma either. They said it all when they didn't accept Kermit Cintrons challenge after they went on trying to get Floyd Mayweather a pure boxer into the octagon. Cintron with 3-4 oz gloves = fractured bones in the skull. I'd rather watch a sport where these men can master ONE art form than these clowns who really just know a little bit of a few martial arts which in the end makes it all look like absolute garbage. MMA will never have anything on Boxing and the truth is MMA has ridden on the back of Boxing just to get some fame. Boxing has too much history to be ****ed with.
atsch Clinching in a boxing match is a tad different then roling around with some dudes nuts in your face !:tired
Good analysis. It seems a lot of boxing fans assume that boxers possess super human abilities when it comes to punching and no MMA guy could possibly survive long enough to get the fight to the ground. I'm sorry, but but I'm not buying that. More than likely, a boxer is going to be easy prey for a takedown since his defense in that area will be weak at best. As you mention, of course Cintron would have a chance against Sherk since he's a huge puncher. But, I have to think the odds are against him since Sherk will be hell bent to take him down and will almost certainly succeed.
I'm a little concerned about the homoeroticism that so many people read into MMA. I'm worried it might be their own latent homosexuality rearing it's ugly head, and the only way to stifle those feelings is to brand the groundwork as being some sort of "gay act." I'm curious, does this also extend to into Olympic/college wrestling? There's lots of rolling around on the ground there. Now how about the clinches in boxing? Do any of you guys turn your heads during them lest you be tainted by the image of two sweaty, shirtless men hugging each other. I mean, I have absolutely no desire to hug a sweaty, shirtless man, but I'm also not stupid enough to associate any sort of homoeroticism with that part of the sport. Some people really need to grow up.
Actually, punching someone in the face outside of the parameters of an licensed sporting event is illegal. So, while there might be a certain honor among streetfighters as to what rules are acceptable or not, ultimately you aren't going to have much of a leg to stand on if you claim that a streetfighter must only throw punches if he is to be legitimate. Unless you have a certified streetfighting rulebook that I'm not privy to.
Sure you do, and I'm sure all those fights took place strictly in the boxing range, with a 3rd party their to break you up if you clinched, and I'm sure they never went to the ground.
