haha hilarious!

I remember seeing another one recently where a guy was picked up and just sort of fell face first into the other guy's crotch. It's definitely a sport with some uncomfortable viewing moments at times.
yeah man... i saw that once too and im like "hmmm.. these grown men like to slob around each others sweaty crotch?.." i like the whole martial arts things but i cant stand the grappling and wrestling part. thats why i like cung le and the other stand up fighters.. its more interesting when people stand there and trade blows than being on the floor feeling each other then try to brake each others fingers after they're done groping each other.
it's much easier to lose a fight on the ground then on your feet. Those that hate ground fighting probably don't get all thats happening or what could if you're a second off.

Sure when they are just stalled and they do nothing the ref should stand them up(which they usually do) but ground is a very important aspect of it. How else are you going to beat someone that's a better striker then you? It gives more options, it's all part of the martial art, may not be as exciting but it's just as important. Otherwise you'd just be watching kick boxing
