To each their own, but it is pretty strategic. You can't be a master of all skills so it's an interesting mix of endurance, speed and strength.
I think they do a pretty good job of stopping fights before serious injury is inflicted.
I prefer to watch the striking as I enjoy Muay Thai (kick boxing) as a hobby, but I can respect and enjoy the tactics of the ground game of submissions.

i agree each to there own every one can watch and enjoy whatever they like its just not for me im afraid

yeah i'm with summerhays on this one
i love stand up fighting, coming from a muay thai back ground. so interesting. however my ocd gets a bit much when someone isnt using proper technique
however when you have two AGRESSIVE high level bjj guys attacking submissions and rolling and sweeping, thats amazing too. just dont get to see enough of it. like when frank mir and big nog hit the ground, the transitions, sweeps and escapes that happend in that brief 30 seconds or so before big nogs arm snapped was amazing
maybe having some background in these areas makes it more interesting then just "two men punching and kicking the hell out of each other in a cage for sport"
but on that note harley dave you seem like a nice enough dude and that post is kinda offensive and silly to make in a thread about mixed martial arts. we understand youre not interested in it. but that doesnt make it cool to make a post bashing a sport that those few of us that post in here are passionate about
and im not trying to attack you with this post just stating the obvious -
it wasnt meant to be offensive ,i thought the post was did you or did not like it ,as i said i dont mind what any one watches its a personell choice .
im not attacking it just saying i dont get . -
no not really ,i do like cricket which if you dont like or understand is about as interesting as watching paint dry .

really hope we see Anthony Johnson back in the ufc , he has been looking great in wsof but there isnt really any more match ups that are competitive ….. with the exception of Tyrone Spong but i cant see that happening
cant wait to see Spong fight again , his last fight against Nathan Corbett in glory was great

As long as he can lay off the eye pokes lol
How he ever made 170 is crazy , dude was walking around at 220 and cutting 50lb
That is basically the same cut that Johnny Hendricks makes for every fight. Said he wants to retire at 185 tho (prob getting tough to cut that 50lbs as u get older lol)

Idk bags. Im not a huge Cruz fan either but the man does have skills and its not like he runs away from the fight for 15-25mins. He still throws. Just very evasive in his stand up. I think Cruz/Barrao would have been good for sure. Better then watching Uriah get the shit kicked out of his lead leg anyway
