Re: Any style of MMA simular to boxing?
Was it just me, or could you also read from his post that the pussification of america is what brought the, as we call it, "McDojos" into America.
I can see where he's coming from, where boxing had historically been known as a gentleman's sport of sort. However, he makes the same old mistake of assuming that MMA is just thugs brawling in a cage. Children learning MMA today from a solid teacher are going to learn the same lessons they learn from boxing. There are things you just don't do in the ring (e.g. lowblows, purposely breaking a limb when you could have had the opponent tap, kicking downed opponents) that equate to the established rules in boxing (e.g. lowblows yet again, striking the back of the head) in teaching the same lessons outside the ring. The UFC in its infancy is not MMA today. With sanctioning bodies and instituted rules, MMA is, for all intents and purposes here, just an evolution of the boxing we all grew up to.
Boxing is like a handjob, and MMA is like a hot sweaty orgy with 5 chicks. I could never say no to a handjob, but which would you rather have?
