Well UFC has become a joke Dana white is makign money- and the casual UFC fans probably just watch it but seriously you cant take this sport seriously- In lightheavy weight there is hardly any decent fighters but john jones and in heavey weight you have 2-3 fighters but Dana is not matching up the best- I used to love the pride days and the early days but now its ****ena JOKE- WHo would even want to watch Big foot v cain seriously...
1-not really- the fights people want to see are super fighters- If dana didnt put JDS v cain then what coudl he put/ seriously 2-Mark fat hunt had no chance against JDS- FACT 3-Big foot v Cain are you KIDDING ME? :rasta
Ok dumb ass actually its not - and that a fact- he has beaten them from pillar to post- they cant just create fighters for him Let me tell you - in ufc you got guys who wont move from a weight divsion- ie john jones could easily campaign at heavy weight- the dude comes at fights at 220-230 but they wont The point is UFC is that- UFC- it has become a joke and no i dnt pay for this **** its free on so many sites but its a JOKE
Nog is a bum? atschatsch When Cain fought them, they were all ranked close to him, as a matter of fact, some were ranked above him. You can look back in retrospect & say 'easy win', but at the time, it wasn't supposed to be.
UFC 160. 3 underdogs won . Pyle, Grant, Whittaker. Lets look at recent boxing card. Mayweather - Guerrero (mass walk outs, 0 underdog wins, total mismatches) Froch - Kessler (0 underdog wins, pathetic undercard) Matthysse - Patterson (0 underdog wins, total mismatches) Garcia - Judah (0 underdog wins) Hopkins - Cloud lol
The UFC has run back to back PPV main events that were massive mismatches in every department...odds, fan reaction and obviously in-ring performance. The boxing HW division gets a lot of flack, but really the MMA version is a lot of smoke and mirrors. I honestly don't think C class guys like Pianeta and Charr are any worse overall athletes then JDS, Silva, Hunt, Overeem or big country. Werdum, Cain and Cormier at least are world class in specific areas.
When i first come on this forum, i immediately started a thread on the UFC being poor with Forrest Griffin being a champion... Then i started to realise, anybody has a chance in the UFC in MMA fullstop... You can have someone whos good on his feet, but cant defend a takedown, then theres the BJJ guys. Anybody has a chance, thats the beauty of it. Dana White and the UFC have done something i didnt think was possible, theyve took over... If i walked up to a man in the street and said... whos the UFC Heavyweight Champion, they know. If i asked the same man... whos the British Light Welterweight Champion... They dont have a clue. UFC isnt just about the fights, its the event, the coverage, everything about what Dana White, the Fertitta's have done is perfect if you ask me. They underpay people which isnt cool, but you see boxers fighting for pittance week in and week out, youve got a guy like Mark Hunt who lost numerous fights in a row... In boxing he'd be finished and forgotten, but the UFC gives everybody a chance and the opportunity to rebuild.
For the past few years Mayweather has had a lot of mis matches. Hatton should've never been in the ring with him. He also missed weight (purposely IMO) against an undersized JMM. Such is life.
You are right. Big fights don't happen in boxing. And then you have the heavyweight champ Wlad taking on bums that has no chance of winning. If Wlad were UFC champion he would not get away with these BS fights he keeps having. ANd while we have Wlad destroying boxing because he does not want to risk getting popped on his glass jaw. We have MAyweather vs. Pacman maybe the biggest fight in boxing history and it does not happen. UFC is beating boxing right now because they make there champs fight the best.
