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
