MMA is a farce for a number of reasons I have laid out which have not been countered
Lets summarise
1 - It is cowardly to strike a man when he is down. No gentleman would do this in a sporting match
A - The MMA fans that some fighters find that lying flat on their back and being repeated struck is the best position to fight in and advantageous for them.
2 - The fact that an actor is the MMA champion after a three fight and a two fight winning streak makes the sport look ridiculous
A - Lesner apparently was a good wrestler in college
3 - Even the best MMA fighters have many losses on their record, proving the random nature of a contest that is basically a scrambled brawl where the first person to get an arm lock on someone wins.
A - The MMA fans claim that it isnt the case that MMA is TO A DEGREE pot luck but claim it shows the strength of depth of the sport that even a highly ranked fighter like Kimbo Slice can be beaten by a man half his size who was visibly shaking with fear before the fight.
The fact is, I am not that strong or tough a guy, I havent trained a lot.
If I fought a UK level heavyweight boxer I would be beaten 100 times out of 100 - under the Queensbury Rules
If I fought a top 25 MMA heavyweight from UFC I reckon I would have at least a 1/20 chance of beating him. Without anymore than my natural strength (average for my size) and a basic instinctive ability to brawl to an average level, I'd win 5 out of 100 simply because I'd get in a clinch with the guy, and in the pot luck scramble I'd be th one to get the arm lock on (and the guys superior training in wrestling would give him a win 19 times out of 20, sure)
