did anybody see the spectacle that is randy"the natural"couture totally take apart tim sylvia on saturday night??
that man is an animal.and at 43 its just hard to comprehend the unbelievable shape that he is in and the fact that he fought a man for 25 minutes that was 6'8",268 lbs and 13 years his junior and totally destroy him!once again crowned ufc heavyweight champion of the world!!well done captain america!!!

I'm not a fan of UFC myself. Bunch of animals in a cage but, i have no problem anyone else liking it.

Give me De La Hoya, Hatton, Sugar Shane or Pac-Man any day of the week 8)

hey i love my boxing to i just hate all the massive ego's that go with the fighters these days,i know i used the word ANIMAL but...i think the i like the term hard man better hahaha these people are quite articulite if u hear them and very very respectful towards each other which is something u just dont see in boxing anymore!i like the variety of styles u see in mixed martial arts fighting as apose to just straight boxing!
each to their own i find it more exciting is all!

I like the old UFC when it didn't matter the size of the aponent, they just threw guys in the octagon and it was a tournament.  But the new fighters are just as hard core and in fact better fighters because they have learned all different styles.  I just like the old tournaments, except for not having time limits.

This is what Bruce Lee wanted, all differnt style fighters going at it to develop the most effective combative form.  In fact, his idea was to have no formal styles just whatever worked the best to kick someones a$$

I'm not saying they aren't articulate it just seems too savage to me.

Also most boxers are respectful. I left out Maywaether because he isn't and avoids decent fighters and i don't like the way he fights either.

theres no way you will agree with me fox but.......ultimate fighting is actually safer than boxing!proven fact!
bbbooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm...bombshell hahahaha

yup, there arguement was ufc is safer because when taking many blows to face and head you can stop and take the fight to the ground.

in boxing you cant.....obviously.....lol

thats right brother and because the gloves are'nt AS heavy the knockout comes quicker,the fighters are'nt taking as many dull thuds to the head!
i just love it its so exciting to watch!then again i love boxing too!

Hey i'm not saying boxing is safer

I just prefer it 8)

Yep, those were the days... Fighters of all shapes and sizes going at it. You'd get some massive big bad mutha against a tiny skinny wee guy... and you'd always be suprised at the outcome.
I remember watching those old tapes of UFC 1-6 and loving them... Who can forget Pat Smith's fight against that Texas Ninjitsu geezer in UFC 2? Nasty... Or Orlando Weet's fight against that big Judo guy which resulted in Orlando being pinned to the ground and recieving a ton of elbows to the head, half of which were after he was knocked out... Ouch.

Oleg Taktarov was the man too, but the fighter I liked most was Tank Abbott. That fight he had against that big hawaiian guy... we all know how that ends!  :p

Man, I need this stuff on DVD.

yeah man the old contest were certainly more extreme in terms of no weight divisions and stuff,but i think i like it better now!tank abbot's bench press is still one of the most amazing things ive ever seen,what a strength!
