Let's break them down then.

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

OPINION-- NOT FACT

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. It's called Jiu-Jitsu and trust me they don't want to get hit, they want to submit you.. again no facts here only speculation

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 Apparently, so ridiculous that no boxing match can top MMA in television views, and while I'm on it again, he is not an actor when it comes to MMA. More speculation

A - Lesner apparently was a good wrestler in college
Fact. Finally, a fact

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.
False again. Show me these so called win and losses by the best

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.
Because we all know that upsets NEVER happen in boxing

The fact is, I am not that strong or tough a guy, I havent trained a lot.
You said it, not me.

If I fought a UK level heavyweight boxer I would be beaten 100 times out of 100 - under the Queensbury Rules
We care why? More nothingness

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)

You have to know how to actually DO an armbar before you can say this. I'd go one step further and put you against people who aren't even in the UFC yet who have been training for a while up against you. If you did go to the UFC or any other organization you'd be slaughtered. You have no knowledge of Martial Arts, Feminism or anything else in this thread.



This thread is OVER
