Wow I can't believe anyone could say that. Clearly you believe fighting is just about punching and nothing more? How can you not respect 2 guys who have had to learn more than one martial art in order to make it to the top of a combat sport?

I just don't think either man is a special athlete. I'd much rather watch someone who was incredibly good at one disicpline than a cockfight. Aesthetically, I find most ground fighting to be repulsive regardless of how difficult or skillfull it may be, I'll admit that.
