I prefer MMA. Oh yeh I noticed what you did there putting MMA in he same league as pro wrestling. If any sport is full of theatrics its got to be boxing (padding)
Anyone over the age of 16yrs that watchings rock n roll wrestling needs to have a good hard look at themselves. I'll add computers games to that list.
Only a fan of Anderson Silva really because most of his fights end with KO and he does something out of this world. I used to watch it back in the days but I got bored of it especially the wrestling on the ground since I don't understand it. I don't watch pro wrestling at all
Big Japanese pro-wrestling fan. Dont watch anything from TNA or WWE as I cant handle all the soap opera aspect of it. The fact that its pre-determined doesnt really matter to me as I still enjoy the matches and as long as its physical and hard hitting which it generally is in Japan I will always enjoy it. I would say I got into MMA from pro-wrestling. I watched the Japanese 'shoot' style wrestling so as soon as Pride came along for me it was just like watching another Japanese wrestling promotion just this wasnt pre-determined and the rules were different but it was all one in the same. My excitement for boxing and pro-wrestling has never dwindled but I barely watch MMA these days. MMA is dead in Japan and in the last 18 months I have just watched less and less UFC. I still catch the big fights but cant remember the last time I watched a whole show. Not sure why it is but I think the fact that the only show in town is the UFC doesnt help. When there was Pride & UFC, I would watch both all the time!!
MMA. Pro Wrestling is ****. It takes balls to do what they do, but what they do is no where near as impressive as what MMA fighters do. Pro wrsetling is predictable as ****. MMA is not. And I disagree with most fans in that I actually prefer the grappling game. Even though I was a boxing fan before I was an MMA fan.
Boxing-is my my favourite sport,been a fan for nearly 20 years Wrestling-I was once a huge wrestling fan,grew up on it as a kid all the way through my teens,cooled off when I got to around 18 and dont really watch it now,some of my friends still watch it so I hear about it off them.. MMA-im a fan since around 2004..
Similar to me I watched Pro Wrestling first I love the indies and Japan. Then I got into MMA heavily when Brock went to the UFC. So, I did my history on it and watched old school Pancrase and UWFI. Now I love BOTH MMA and Pro Wrestling.
Kickboxing > Boxing > Pro Wrestling > MMA in entertainment value. But all have faded from their golden years. Kickboxing was on top back at the start of K-1, boxing was good for many generations but we all know it's dying (not dead, though), Pro Wrestling is still good but I prefer the non-PG era. MMA was best during the Pride years. The fighters may not be better but they were way exciting back then. Red card if not doing anything (LnP and stuff), exciting entrances, etc. Thank god One FC is bringing some of those feel back.
MMA = No thanks its not my thing. To boring to watch these ground and grappling thing Wrestling = Its for Kids. When i was a child i watched Wrestling to, but after a saw a docu in 1994 about Mike Tyson and Boxing i never watched these fake-****.
