Theres a big difference covering up with a 4-6 oz glove and protecting yourself against a 4-6 oz glove then there is with 10 oz gloves..

Most matches end in the same fashion of a jerry springer show or playground fight.

I apologize for not seeing thelearned technical skill employed in this finishes.
Understand how it might look to you but its all subtle technique.. I am 190lbs and I guarantee I can hold an untrained but in shape 222-270lb man on the ground and keep superior positionong just like I can escape when that same guy tries holding me down to inflict pain and punch on me, its not cause I am stronger or more athletic but I have better technical skills and a better understanding of leverage and physics of the human body while holding position...

True Joe Rogan is a comedian and was famous from fear factor, but what you might not know is Joe is one hell of an accompolished Martial Artist himself with a brown belt in Brazalian Ju Jitsu.. So he is more than qualified to be a commentator.

Nobody would eat if its food huh Well yell you what if you havent been paying attention all the networks and all the ratings and PPV numbers... MMA is Filet Mignon brother cause the masses are turning to it and are preferring it over Boxing... Sorry man thats a fact

Twist the guys arm till he Quits... Yea I get that alot with people and ask them to put me in an armbar and when the technique is all wrong and it takes them 10 minutes to do it and its ineffective... Yea anyone can do it Tell you what try it when the other guys expecting it and you have a split 2nd to do it then if you cant apply it effectively you have to let go regain postition and then try for another sub, some body positions you can have someone in a triangle choke and if you cant get it, then you can flow to a leg lock, knee bar, etc... Not easy and believe me its all technique 100%

Again this is a boxing forum not an MMA forum so I never expect anyone to embrace MMA.... But I am versed in Boxing and MMA so I can tell you 95% of the people that have pre conceived notions or talk about it, really know nothing about it or how its strategy or techniques apply....
