Media mainstream sportscenter starts show with mma vs boxing debate

[El Kabong]

Put UFC's heavyweight in vs Vitali Klitschko in either sport.....BOXING is still king! (maybe of a smaller country but boxing still rules UFC)


Really a more fair fight would be WWE vs UFC.....which has more roided up guys with worse tatoos?

[Trainer Monkey]

I hear Pride's coming back with Gilbert Gotfried as their figurehead

[El Kabong]

....I think it's more of a statement about our society.....kids don't know the propper way to fight now'a'days...


No kicking
no biting
no hugging
no scratching
and no screaming like a little girl (Joe Rogan)!!!!







also more importantly

No weapons
No extra help (one on one and that's it)

[Punisher136]

I bash vitali for his lack of heart in the byrd fight but when healthy he would dominate mma with his kickboxing back ground and don't worry about trying to take him to the ground you wont be awake long enough to try it.

Boxing has it's problems but let's just compare UFC 71 (when the numbers come out) to De la Hoya-Mayweather and see what's what!

I'm sure PBF/DLH will out sell UFC 71, but do you really want to compare PPV buys between the two sports over the last couple of years? MMA wins hands down.

i saw what every fight in the world should be in a middleschool hallway a few years ago. These two little kids were talking mad shit to each other. Then the one kid said "shit i lost my contact" they both looked for it, found it, set it aside and then started annihilating each other it was classic.

[El Kabong]

....when Tim Sylvia is a heavyweight "champion" you're in the INFANCY of your sport!


Don't come to boxing with this "we're greater than you" bullcrap! It fucking angers me to no end.....ask yourself which would you rather have 3 rounds with ANYONE in MMA or 12 with anyone in boxing?

I'd go 3 rounds with GOD rather than 12....MMA is some gay ass shit....all they are missing in the ring are their purses!

Tabacco companies make more than the ufc nationwide as well. You still wanna lay claim that because more buy it its a better product?

You Decide!

[VictorCharlie]

Lyle at least be some what informed
Randy Couture is the HW champ not Tim Sylvia
Chuck is a LHW not hw
Title fights are five 5 minute rounds

[El Kabong]

....so they fight for at MOST 25 minutes in championship fights vs boxing's 36.....and let us remember for the most part in "Non-John Ruiz" championship fights the boxers don't spend half their time rolling on the ground or hugging each other.

Couture ain't much of an improvement....could he beat Vitali? I doubt it

[Trainer Monkey]

In all honesty,probably one of the reasons I dislike UFC
They kick like old women
If I had kicked like that when I took Ken-Po,Id have spent many moons kicking a tree,until I got it right
I want to see guys who can actually kick,I watch proper Muy Thai

did you come up with that argument all on your own? Unless Big Tobacco is showing PPVs of people smoking I dont see the relevance in your post...and yes I think its a better product

they punch like pussies too!

Sam Soliman's offense looks better than their's....oh sorry "striking"....I'll strike Dana White upside his ugly fucking head.

Everything in MMA is WORSE than it is in boxing (with the exception of the match making...it's more consistant but I never have heard of 3/4Th's of them).


I'd rather smoke cigarettes than watch MMA if that answers your question Punisher

[VictorCharlie]

Lyle I can do this too

you decide

give me a break man both sports are valid..both have great fights and both have snore fests
entertainment is subjective...there is no reason to bash the fighters and their fans b/c its not your bag
