Ah yes, a sport you can win by humping your opponent into submission. Personally I would rather eat razors and sit on a barbed wire cushion than watch that tedious BS. A fight should take place while the fighters are standing up, not lying down getting good and cosy, with the gonads of their opponent less than ten inches from their face.
When I first heard of ultimate fighting, I was hoping it would be a kind of "you go until one of you is knocked out, as in asleep, as in not getting up again without assistance." not the current situation of "Well, you go until one of you humps the other guys arm so hard that he cries, oh and by the way, the only acceptable mode of dress for this event is skin tight pants. Good luck".
I want to see fighters hitting so hard and fast that four ribs and a jaw are broken inside of an eyeblink, not two men in a cage getting in touch with their feminine side, while wearing spandex.

So you wanna fight??? I'll kick your butt!
LOL...
Talk is cheap on the internet... I wonder if you've ever actually been in a ring before?
I was a boxer for two years, and a kickboxer for a little while... of course that was over 10 years ago...
UFC wasn't even close to as popular back then... but I used to watch it when it started, back in the Royce Gracie, Ken Shamrock days...
I wouldn't get in the ring with a MMA fighter... not even back then
And if you're smart neither would you, even if you've fought in the ring before...

P.S Throw a boxer into that "Octagon"(What an appropriate shape for such a bloody sport) and he will get pulverized.
That already happened a few times... James Toney was the HeavyWeight champ... a wicked boxer!!
But he learned fast that boxing isn't the same as MMA...
He quit in 2 fights I believe... lost both...

I'll poke u in the eye ball, palm strike to the nose, chop to the throat, then knee to the groin and you'd be out.
yup that would probably do it....
i'll take that as an admitting you've never been in the ring...

Is it hell.
Most of the people I have known from out and about fight in one of two ways. Either the fight is over in two strikes, in the case of those fellas who actually have both balls, or it's a fight of five vs one, where mr lonesome gets all manner of a kicking . MMA has nothing to do with how street fighting happens, and if it did, then even the winner of a street fight would get stabbed afterward for being a massive douche. You do not hump your enemy to death, no matter what. You knock him off his feet or you accept that you just don't have the balls and move off. No messing about in the middle with bloody submission moves ( which any ballsack with a basic understanding of the human anatomy can pull off).

"Safety" comes first in the UFC, As if Dana white or those Fertitta brothers care, underpaying all their fighters. Fighters made money in Pride and K1, now it's a dead end sport. There's alawys Vale Tudo which is as raw as it gets, head stomps..etc
