Don't put me in the 5.. Saying the MMA was influenced by former pro wrestlers is a country mile from your statement that modern MMA is all rooted...
Haha... Hmmm. I'm pretty sure I got you to recant your original statement: I bowed out of this debate when you changed the context of your...
Are you kidding me? These dude generated a live gate of better than $2.5 million at the 02 Arena against freaking Akiyama on a card not even...
I say this about boxing, MMA, football, etc. If a fighter/player doesn't like the risk/reward ratio, then do something else for a living. These...
And what from Japanese PRO wrestling did Ken Shamrock bring to the UFC? Just curious.... I didn't see Ken using any fake slams or holds in the UFC.
Yep, it was the way Rampage acted after the fight. Because of Machida's dominant 3rd round, Jackson thought he lost the fight.
See what I mean. He offers nothing to support his view. He simply makes a statement yet I want to argue.
As much as Dana hates Nick Diaz, you know he's hoping Diaz beats Daley. It would make everything so much easier. Plus, a win over Daley makes Diaz...
Wow, it's just dawned on me, there are 45 points on the line. There could be some huge jumps in the standings as we near the end of the contest...
OK, here we go. I am including 4 under card bouts that are all being broadcast somewhere. Each of the fights include fighters that are well-known....
Something tells me that Brother TLC can come up with a painful signature for you to wear around. I'll be pulling for Lyle, but man, what a tough...
:laughing: True..
I can't stand Bisping but you can't deny the dude puts asses in the seats in the right venue. He deserves to be paid for that.
One of the problems with taking the Evans stance of "I won't fight my buddy" is if your supposed buddy says "Bullshit we ain't that tight". Then...
BJ Penn Lyoto Machida Jon Jones Carlos Condit Nick Diaz
He must be using some hybrid Canadian voodoo mind control. He gets me every time. He says nothing but he says everything. I can hear him right...
I was just catching up on this thread. It's funny, but Steve_Dave's response to everything has been "It's all here. It's crystal clear. If you...
I wanted to bump this as it appears our young Jedi knight and Jarhead will be entering into a signature bet on the Aoki-Beerbohm fight. Jarhead...
I would vote for Meathead Mitrione if his hand is better. A good barometer for both guys.
That quote from Jones needs to be used in a movie. I can hear a trainer badgering his fighter with those word. That might be one of the top 10...
Really? So you mean he can change professions then?
He was definitely ahead of the curve. That's why he did so well for so long. He matched up well against almost any style.
Well it has absolutely nothing to do with the roots of the UFC. That is for sure. Again, I am stretching to see the connection.
Modern MMA is basically the UFC. Let's be honest. And the UFC is not rooted in Pro Wrestling. It has been influenced by pro wrestlers that have...
SD bails on yet another discussion that he was over his head in.
I think this is a disagreement over use of the words 'roots' and 'spawned'... The UFC is not rooted in Pro Wrestling. It has been influenced by...
Speechless SD?
Absolutely not. My definition of roots is far more involved than just wrestlers or former wrestlers participating in modern MMA. I will say it...
So then your quote from the very first page of this thread is a bit of a lie. For clarification, you didn't get 'torn a new asshole for saying...
I didn't see a question. Ask me a question and, unlike you, I will answer. And if you have a question about that thread, ask it in THAT thread....
