There's plenty of throws, chokes and other techniques that are very functional without you ending up on the ground. If you've never seen a master Judoka throw guys around, you can't really understand it.

I see you're in Vancouver. Come check out a free week of classes at Gracie Barra or Revolution Fight Team and see for yourself. :2 cents:

we've had this conversation before d.k .. i train to punch to the throat ;)

Ahhh yes, Kung Fu. :Oh crap

"kung fu" is about as general as saying "music with guitars"

Yes, Shogun. There has been so many fights this year, and news on the coming ones that I got them mixed up!

It's been a great year for MMA that's for damn sure, now with GSP / Hughes 3 I'm sooo stoked.:thumbsup

I know the wwf wrestlers bleed as well, it's just that the ufc/mma special effects guys are better at creating more realistic looking injuries.

If you look closely at Rich Franklin's nose you can see where the false nose is attached to his face to make it look as if were broken

same as with the cut on Eastman's forehead, with a gash like that there would be blood pouring out all over the place, but there is none

Two very obvious fake injuries.

The ufc producers wanted to make the fights appear real which is one of the reasons that they don't have the fighters hit each other with chairs or other objects as they do in wwf. There are a lot of people though that believe it to be real because of those factors, yet surprising enough there are also quite a few people that believe the wwf to be real as well :Oh crap Some people are just very gullible and will believe anything that they are told.

Furthermore most of the so called live events are not live at all. Most of the audience, with the exception of the first few rows, is composited into the background during post production. It is a very high quality forgery and at times while watching an mma event I almost forget that it as all a big act scripted for the benefit of the audience.

can't believe people are saying MMA is like WWE... MMA is real, you can SEE them fighting

simple test.. who "rehearses" to pretend to hurt and who "trains" actually hurt?

MMA does look realer ... i mean you see, hear and almost feel that contact

fiddy.....

metaman, you're a tool if you think that
