The Ring for MMA

But it makes for such hilarious gifs.

 

Anyone seen one of the early UFC fights when some one gets kicked/pushed/thrown through the door? Trying to find the clip on youtube.

 

i think i remember it i hope you find it cause it was pretty funny

 

might be in a tank abbott fight i think

 

I prefer the ring over the Octagon. Theres no where to hide in the ring.

 

Nowhere to hide except, you know, outside the ring:

The cage is the ideal battlegrounds for MMA (when the doors locked that is) but if promotions want to use a ring they should at least go the IFL route and spring for the extra canvas outside the ropes for the fighter's safety.

 

I can't make any sense out of this comment.

 

boxing ring has corners to trap your opponent beneficial for strikers, cage does not.

of course for ground fighters it is the opposite

grapplers will prefer a cage, GNP'rs will too.

pressing opponents against the cage.

 

I happens to Kieth Hackney when he fought the big sumo...

 

I think if mma wants to be like a street fight..make it in a street.....with some curbs....maybe a dumpster you can slam a guy into......

 

ring dont work for mma

 

same here. i was thinking it was the other way around.

 

What is that supposed to mean? Seriously, I am not making fun.
