You are, I never said that "Not" smashing your head into random thins is psychotic behavior. They are acting psychotic because they are. And I don't think I ever gave the impression that anyone is psychotic because they bleed. Sorry I did not word it better.

IMO UFC is boring as hell. Boxing has gotten very repetitive and boring as in UFC you have guys trapped in a cage the size of a babies play pen grabbing each other in weird places, plus it's probably scripted anyways. I have actually found a pretty nasty picture of one UFC fighter sticking his hand down his opponents butt. If I had to choose one though, it would probably be boxing. Brazlian Ju Jitsu, who cares about it, it's not that good or exciting to watch, its just a guy who knows a few simple throws and a few holds. Boxing is where the veternas and men play. They throw real punches that hurt like heck with blood pouring out of their head and competition to the max. WWE beats them both though IMO.

.....If you want to see blood, then the UFC is for you.....

And I do not think the UFC is scripted, but I can tell you that the WWE is.

Oh man, thank god you reminded me, I thought today was friday lol.

I dont know who is going to win but, Watching Taylors last couple of fights he has been getting beat up pretty bad and still comes out with a win. I just I just wonder how long he can keep that up.

UFC is scripted though. Do you have any idea how some people waste millions of dollars to bet on sports in general. If you want blood watch WWE, they're all monsters who will really bring the pain! But any way back on topic. Who would win in a fight? Mohammad Ali (back in the day) or Royce Gracie? Just to stay on topic so it doesn't get locked :)

wow....

Besides the improper grammar throughout the whole post he's also throwing out crap about sports that he knows nothing about. You say Boxing is repetitive, and WWE isn't? WWE is probably the most repetitive sport I know of. They're starting to reuse story lines they used 10 years ago... plus, it's gotten pathetic. I really find no entertainment in bogus "fighting" and made up drama.

You're saying that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu isn't that good? It happens to be one of the most successful fighting styles in the history of Martial Arts, way better than your crappy wrestling antics. And you think that punches in the UFC don't hurt? Ok, let's do this. I'll punch you in the face and you tell me if it hurts....

Sorry, I don't mean to be hasty, but when someone talks crap about sports they don't even know about it kind of ticks you off.

Lol, you do realize the WWE is and always was, fake fighting....


And Ali vs Gracie would be pointless.

Also, Ali was not the best Boxer.

Holy SMOKES. Did you guys watch the fight tonight? Lil ole white kid from Youngstown Ohio - Kelly Pavlik TKO's Jermaine Taylor in the 7th round. This was the biggest boxing shock in years for me.

Taylor's arms were like twice as big as Pavlik's... Just looking at the size differential before the fight started, I didnt think there was ANY chance Pavlik could do anything against Taylor.

This was not fixed either...Pavlik was very close to being TKO'd himself in the 2nd round. He came back and took care of business.

If someone see's it on youtube before me, post it here.

The boxing community is like 'OMG' right now. I am shocked. Wow.

I was hoping Taylor would win, and during the 2nd round Talyor looked like he was about to KO Pavlik with 1 minute to go, and I bet if Talyor would have kept coming after him in the last minute like was was, he would have.

I will give it to Pavlik though, That was a hell of a fight. He surely lived up to his name, "The ghost".
