While that would be a great idea, I have 2 reasons he will never reach Tyson like status. 1. His weak chin has already been exposed on many different occasions, so that kind of takes away from being unstoppable in anyones mind. 2. Hes not animal in the ring like Tyson was or as intimidating, Wlad dont have what Tyson had.
Yep. I actually feel kind of bad for MMA haters. By being a UFC and boxing fan, look how many more nights of entertainment we have to look forward to. Between now and the new year, There's great cards in both boxing and UFC.
As to whether MMA or boxing looks "gay"...yes, both do. It's a matter of degree--boxing "hugging" looks less gay than MMA, but gayer than tennis or golf. But it shouldn't matter, because the athletes are NOT gay. In fact, they're beating the crap out of each other, which is about as un-gay as you can get. This argument is stupid...Unless you're extremely sensitive, insecure, or vehemently afraid of anything that looks remotely gay. If that's the case, I recommend watching competitive darts or chess instead.
They think a lot of work done inside the guard looks especially gay, then various mounts, even if submissions are being set up or some vicious ground and pound, in which I think both of those factors are their best are beautiful. But I also like good ground fighting.
Where were you 10 pages again! The succinct nature of your post sums up exactly what myself and others have been saying since the start of this thread. Nicely put!
As I said earlier in this thread to someone else, you are under absolutely no obligation to enjoy MMA. Or Nascar, or golf, or tennis or any other sport for that matter. And if you choose to stick needles in your eye, well that's your perogative too. I don't recommend it though. Word on the street is that it's quite painful. As for your incessant homoerotic ramblings, you might be better off avoiding sports all together that feature close male contact. Football and baseball are dangerous due to the incessant butt patting - and hell, look at all the hugging they do when they win the World Series. Ewwwwhhhhhh!!! Best of luck!
So, boxing is less gay than UFC? And are other sports less gay than boxing? Do you have a list of sports from most gay to least gay. Feel free to post it.
Yeah I absolutely agree, that was some boring ass ****. They can easily do commercial breaks between those hugs and takedowns since nothing really happens for a good 2-3 minutes.
Boxing has lots of boring cards. The biggest boxing event in recent memory, DLH vs Mayweather was considered by many to be incredibly dull. Sure, last nights UFC wasn't the greatest ever, but it wasn't horrible. If UFC's were uniformly bad, then they wouldn't be as successful as they are. Once in awhile, there's going to be dud.
Why does everyone keep saying Oscar vs Mayweather was BORING... sure it didnt live up to the hype, and it wasnt an EXCITING fight, but it wasnt boring. I hate this saying, but i think people that thought that fight was plain boring doesnt really like boxing a whole lot. Taylor vs Spinks is Boring.... Mayweather vs Hoya is just not exciting... but not boring.
I agree that it wasn't boring. I'm just saying that a lot of average boxing fans felt it was boring. I watched it with a group of guys who don't watch boxing reguarly and they all said it was boring and regretted watching it. I told them to **** off!! Similarly, I definitely wouldn't call last nights UFC card boring. It was great, but I still enjoyed it.
Yeah, a main event of chuck liddell who just got KO`d against a nobody Keith Jardine who just got ko`d, wow great matchup lol. Not to mention how blatantly the UFC rigged the fight on saturday so that the Englishman Bisping got the decision in England so as to help promote the gravy train for more English events even though he lost all 3 rounds against Hammill.
