09.16.16 | It honestly makes me super uncomfortable to watch. I can handle boxing, but some of the viciousness in UFC just grosses me out

09.16.16 | less dangerous than boxing in the long term |

09.16.16 | I don't really enjoy fighting sports at all personally. I definitely see the appeal but it's not for me. |

09.16.16 | Man I almost burst out laughing after the CM Punk match
He didn't even get a single offense in |
MO
09.16.16 | he telegraphed the shit out of his punch. gall's plan was to take it to the ground eventually I think for the submission, but it happened so fast cause punk basically said HEY I'M GONNA THROW A PUNCH NOW!! |

09.16.16 | I'm more of a WWE fan and not really into UFC at all but of course I had to watch the CM Punk match...which was quite embarrassing...
Props to him regardless though, it takes a lot of courage to step in that octagon. |

09.16.16 | yea bloc, as much as people shit on him saying he had no place there, which he didn't, you gotta respect the balls he had to go up against someone who was heavily favoured to kick his ass |
bloc
09.16.16 | His speech after the match was pretty corny though |

My brother is a health professional and according to him boxing is a lot worse cause the gloves allow you to take way more punishment while still standing and the constant rocking of your skull has far worse ramifications than just getting a quick two shot to the face that knocks you unconscious. |

I can't help but feel UFC is modern gladiatorial games. People being pacified by violence.

Gwyn.
09.16.16 | The speech just sort of seemed like he was trying to save face, it honestly looked like he was about to cry and was barely buying anything he was saying
I'd very very surprised if he ever makes it back to the UFC after that, and I don't even know if I'd see him in amateour circles |

09.16.16 | "I can't help but feel UFC is modern gladiatorial games. People being pacified by violence."
Maybe but who cares? No one's dying (You'd actually be surprised at just how much more often wrestlers or boxers die from fighting injuries than mixed martial artists), and these guys are doing this at their own choice, so if you meant that negatively then I don't see your point |

09.16.16 | I've seen some atrocious boxing refs let punches go long after the dudes been taken out, some leading to death. In that sense UFC seems a bit safer, which is good, but I think you'd have more chance of getting injured regularly with UFC. |

09.16.16 | I watch a moderate amount, more wwe tbh. |

09.17.16 | "anyone have any favourite commentators"
I like Brian Stann a lot. When Frank Mir retires I hope he becomes a commentator because he was really good when he called fights in the WEC.

Not even remotely close. With gladiators it was guaranteed death and I'm sure a lot of them were there not by choice and they'd have tigers thrown in there with them for extra spectacle.

09.17.16 | yeah, but on the other hand pretty close.. |

Absolutely NOTHING like Gladiators. Rules/Regulations/Commissions/Highly Trained Martial Artists. The cage is the only thing that gives it that effect. Id be down for a sword or 2 though. |

09.17.16 | I find it a lazy comparison. Not saying there isnt a ton of dickheads who watch it and dont really care about the art aspect of mixed martial arts but true fans ,as with any sport, Understand and are passionate about the fights/fighters and the sport past merely blood and show. Its completely different. Allthough yeah Im sure there are many who kind of see it that way too tbh. One things for sure the amount of morons who watch it nowadays has sky rocketed. |
