Cain Velasquez?
- Thread starter Timm
- Start date
I got into UFC Heavy like 5-6 years ago. But that wrestling shit just wore me out.....
Every fuckin match them dudes just want to wrestle. Sure, every once in a while you see a nice drop kick or knockout punch..........but overall I just couldnt take it anymore.
One other thing.........it seems like every body and their fucking mom thinks they can be a UFC fighter now. That's the other thing I hate about MMA. Just because you took a Karate class or a boxing lessons doesn't make you a MMA fighter. This ultimately did me in with UFC because it brought a bunch of whack fitghts..........
Thats just my take.
i'll watch it every now and then, but fuck pay for PPV's like I used to.

That is an understandable reason, most people don't want to admit that they don't like the wrestling/grappling aspect. It is part of the sport and if you are not into it, than you are not totally into MMA, just some parts, which is perfectly expectable.
Most true fans that follow MMA hardcore enjoy the wrestling and BJJ. I personally like watching high school and collegiate wrestling as well as I like watching BJJ tournaments. Most people do not understand the technicality of grappling, they may understand the basics, but I'm talking about the more intricate details that make grappling interesting.
This goes with other things as well. For example Baseball, I find it somewhat boring, but when I watch it with my father in law and he explains the intricate details like how player X is suppose to catch the ball a certain way to be able to get a better release and stuff like that it becomes much more interesting other than what I am seeing is a guy catching a ball and throwing it. Like grappling, most people see 2 people on the ground, not realizing that one might be trying to get wrist control, or is positioning a leg a certain way for a sweep, or is trying to set up a submission.
Now there are some MMA fighters that really do just try to stay in ones guard and not go for subs, not go for better positioning and their ground and pound is unseen, now that can be uninteresting to just about anyone.
i gotta simple solution for the people who dislike mma...
dont fucking watch it...
I'm a fan of boxing, and have been my whole life.. but its the BOXING ONLY fans that are fuckin annoying. You cant sit there and blast the sport of MMA bc ur tired of seeing GSP dry hump people...
in that case lemme blast boxing bc David Haye and Wladimir Klitschko didnt live to the hype, alexander and bradley sucked, Floyd and Manny will never fight, Shane and Manny dance around for 12 rounds and bore people...
Every sport has its flaws and snooze moments. MMA has had its share of shitty moments and so has boxing. But i still love both sports.

^^I literally can not remember the last MMA match I watched. So, I heed your advice.
It's not that I can't stand watching GSP dry hump people....its that I can't stand %80 of the sport Dry humping each other.
Let me say though that I do plan on watching Nick Diaz's next fight. I was always a fan of his. He is a real fighter and will pull some karate shit out of his ass too.
All in all, its the fans of MMA that crack me up. I am talking about MMA only fans. I know like 30 people that are now trying to be MMA fighters. Or so called.............
I swear...

Yea see me i can watch both... Bc in reality, ive watched waaaay more boxing than i have mma... And i watch a shit ton of mma.. I know what ur saying about the dry humping tho or guys fighting for points.. A lot of guys are losing that killer instinct and wanna lay on a dude... Or in boxing an occasional 1,2 run away... And it makes some fights boring... But i cant sit there and bash either sport bc of a few guys... And since this is a Cain Velasquez thread i will go out and say dude is the best wrestler the UFC has. When he takes someone down expect hundreds of punches.
