This is the thing to me. It may indeed require skill, as you have suggested, but when these fights hit the ground, it's just plain DULL to watch. I don't care how much macho promotion you dress this **** up with, watching a couple of guys roll around on the ground is just BORING.
exactly when its on the floor its terrible i think thats the reason why i like Jon Jones his almost never off his feet and controls his opponent from distance
Yeah, that's why I liked some of Chuck Liddell's fights - there was ACTION, punches being thrown, guys moving around and getting knocked out - not dull, boring rolling around on the floor.:yep
ya and there 5 minute rounds, often 4 or more of those minutes are guys hugging each other on the floor mma isnt more exciting than boxing, but it has a single governing body and is marketed better
You need to get some humour - it will help with your comprehension. What doesn't make sense is why someone spends as much time in the MMA forum when you hate the sport? :huh You do realise there is pretty much no legit posters left in the MMA forum to troll except Zakman? Pity he also hates the sport and is only here to boost the post count for the advertisers.
More or less is though. I have to laugh at people mentioning hugging and MMA in the same sentence. Same people are Wlad, Ward and Hopkins fans.
Well, you have to develop a good marketing plan when your product - stripped of all the macho posturing and WWE-style trappings - is about as entertaining as watching paint dry!:yep
UFC ratings and PPV buy rates are sinking consistently.The fanboys and followers of the WWE are their only hope to keep this garbage in the news.
Just as with boxing if you learned more about submissions and grappling you would have a greater appreciation for the art. It's like people that say Mayweather is boring because he doesn't brawl. Opinions vary but when the science and skill is there, the onus of beauty is on the beholder.
let me guess, you got choked out after your right cross sailed over the top and therefore you forever hate MMA fighting?? well that's life kid :bbb now get the **** out of here before I arm bar you to death :deal
