I tried mix martial outs yesterday with my friend, who is big time into it. I really dig it a lot. Is there anybody here who is into MMA?

I watch it a bit.

You fight?

Nah.

I am not into MMA.

When it first came out and there were some really professional people with sportsman-like attitudes, it was great. I was into it then.

Now that there are a bunch of mouthy punks and almost as much drama as wrestling.... I'll pass.

Big Time.

Watching the St. Pierre vs. Hardy fight was awesome. Hardy is a total mouthy douche, and watching St. Pierre kick his ass was glorious.

Not into MMA...but I am(was) really into martial arts. If you were closer by we could work out. I think that the best way to do MMA is actually get your hands dirty with the nuances and the pros/cons of the different styles. Most of my training has been in striking arts (karate, TKD, kenpo etc.) with a tiny bit of grappling (Jiu-jitsu etc.).

It takes a bit of discipline, but if you really want to get into it, you should scan your area for martial arts schools. By the sounds of it, you want more of hole-in-the-wall type school over the "Mc-Dojos" that a running amok in the Martial Arts landscape

Enjoy martial arts in any event. It is SO Stress relieving

I am not into the drama , I just like the fighting. But I really would like to learn Muay Thai. Or BJJ. I got my ass kicked the other day, but that felt so much better then dealing with my girlfriends parents.

They're just a bunch of fags rolling around on the ground fantasizing about sodomizing each other.

Shut your mouth.

Man... you guys don't know me at all!! That was obviously a troll post...

I love MMA and I've actually started various threads on here that have always died. I've gone so far as to criticizing the Aussies on here because they weren't enthusiastic when the UFC held its first event there. Oh well...

I tend to borrow a tape of every UFC event from friends, lol... I'm too poor to buy the PPVs.

It's the greatest sport out there, so much intensity and action. I know some people hate the ground game, and I'm no expert, but I like to appreciate the intricacies of what goes on on the mat.

Also, GSP definitely dominated Hardy, but it wasn't like he was kicking his butt and wiping the cage with it. Heck, Hardy escaped and armbar and a kimura...

The Hughes/Gracie fight was comical at the end, it was like Hughes was keeping Gracie alive until he couldn't take anymore... hahahaha.

Anyways, I really liked the Davis vs. Gustafsson fight they showed. I know it was a prelim, but I highly enjoyed it. That anaconda choke was amazing!!


So who do you guys think will win the next PPV, Machida or Shogun?

(I've had 1 1/2 of previous Karate experience and I'd love to train in BJJ in the near future.)

smileys are your friends.

use em.

What???

(NOT SO) BREAKING NEWS!! Tito got locked up this morning for beating on Jenna.

Oh, and I reeeeeally want to watch the Lesnar vs. Carwin fight.

I think it will be an great fight, but it'll be pretty much a stalemate. They're the same size with the same skills...

However, Carwin does have KO powers while Lesnar seems to pretty much just get GnP TKOs....

It's a hard one to call.

Oh well... my friends will order it.... and tape it!

Did anyone watch the Aldo vs Faber PPV or at least the prelims?

It's funny how they totally hid the WEC brand name.

I watched the prelims. But I didn't stick around for the big fight.

So guys...

Fedor lost, Lesnar won... what are your thoughts?

Lesnar beat Fedor? Daaaaamn.

No. Hahaha...

I'm just saying... Fedor lost against Werdum and Lesnar beat Carwin, haha....

Ah, k.

But still.... WERDUM BEATING FEDOR!!! HAHAHAHA!!!! WERDUM, MAN!!! IN LESS THAN TWO MINUTES!!!! Hahaha...

Not really an MMA style of fighting, but I am studying Krav Maga right now. It's a a Israeli style developed for IDF commandoes, and is used world over by military and law enforcement.

Ah, Krav Maga... so controversial, haha....

I like it, it seems like an excellent self defense system. I know a guy who studied for two years and he told me that he was confident that he could kill any attacker with his bare hands. (granted the attacker didn't have any long range weapons)
