I've really been getting into lately, on Saturday night they have free to watch matches. I don't think I would pay 60.00 bucks for pay per view. I really miss watching the boxing growing up with all the great prize fighters back then, I feel lucky to have seen the golden years of boxing, this MMA is kind of filling that void. I'm still learning this MMA stuff, and it's pretty entertaining. Who else follows it?

Fights on FS2 most every early morning, and then there's Muay Thai on RSNW at least once a week, again usually starting at 2-3AM.
If you get AXS TV, every Friday night there's MMA, hosted by Michael Schavello and Pay Militech. Usually as good of fights as you'll find on UFC (and sometimes better).
Joey Periotti....local boy, they call him mama's boy, he's interesting to watch. His Grampa was tough hombre and that's first hand knowledge....
Just watched one of his video's, and he looks like a well rounded welteweight. At 4-0 as a Pro, he's got a good start. Hopefully he'll get noticed by one of the bigger promoters and have a chance to advance for the high-$ fights.
If a guy's gonna do that for a living, he sure as hell better get paid well for it!
Been talking about it on here for years, and everyone told me to shut the fvck up....
Don't know ya, but from what I've seen busting your balls is the favorite pastime for a majority of the forum. What'd you do to piss people off so bad?
Holm did more than KO Rousey, she rung her bell so hard Rousey lost some of her brass. She's booked for a UFC PPV event, but I'm waiting to see if she actually steps up and fights again.

Maybe it was from delusional and fabricated replies, like the quote above.
That and/or he doesn't know when to shut his snivel'n little bitch mouth.
This is what happens to one who doesn't have a forethought.
Edited by Kinetic Kwik (11/24/1610:14 AM) Edit Reason: That aaannnddd. Can't get a fuckin clue as to why he was booted from the board. Not only once, but twice. OK 4 times then. NUMBSKULL
KK -2.0, stfu, you are a retard, first off it was 4 times, secondly, go do a search, i used to post UFC threads all the time...
GD, dont know either, probably because i dont put up with old peoples sh!t on the internet, never have, never will...
Rousey fights Amanda Nunes at 207, Nunes will likely kick her ass too... Rhonda got exposed by Holly, thats what happened... Holly got exposed by Tate, and Tate got her ass whipped by Nunes.... Nunes will probably be champ for a while, until she fights Cyborg...
thats another issue, if Rousey wins, she will have to fight Cyborg, and she will get her ass kicked AGAIN...
coming up on 206, the Cormier/Rumble fight will be or should be an excellent match, i was really looking forward to Jones becoming champion again, we will have to wait for that tho...
my friend Demico was on TUF (Evans/Rampage) on Quinton's team with Kimbo... he ended up losing to Brendan Schaub, and is now a firefighter, still trains daily tho... my other buddy Mike fights at Snoqualmie and a few other venues like that every now and then...

Used to follow boxing. It seems like it has fallen from mainstream and is all about ppv. With boxing it seems like most fighters when they are fresh have pretty solid defense but as the fight wears on, both guys are standing toe to toe flailing their arms to see who falls over first.
In MMA, if you don't have good defense ALL fight long, you will be submitted or knocked out very quickly. The style and background of these fighters are what makes it entertaining. Been following it for around 7 years now and find it as entertaining as anything.
The only thing I don't care for is the self promotion/WWF/E stunts they pull to draw in bigger audiences. If you don't believe me, check out Connor McGregor or Rampage Jackson.
The fight that got me hooked on MMA was the Dominick Cruz and Urijah Faber2 fight....wow
All the greats are really good at slowly breaking down their opponent. It's a chess match that involves dragging the weaker man into deeper water, or having the gift of being able to knock someone out in one punch. A good fisherman will employ a multitude of techniques given the water conditions to be successful because one technique or style will not be successful 100% of the time, same with fighting...
In all fairness to Redhook, he did call the Holm/Rousey fight... suprised me...like Rich predicting Trump to win
A good fisherman will employ a multitude of techniques given the water conditions to be successful
The technique that I find most successful is a 10/0 treble with a hunk of lead. It takes water condition out of the mix too. :>)

Evo, is UFC the only body of MMA? or is MMA a body of itself?

I did some MMA training several years ago....Muay Thai discipline. It got me in great shape until a sparring incident with my trainer resulted in my left bicep tendon tearing away from the shoulder. Surgery required re-attachment and some removal of my collar bone...good times. Had full recovery and still hit the heavy and speed bag when in the mood.
SD, I think Bellator is another organization that has MMA divisions, plus there are "kick-boxing only" organizations that do not permit grappling.
There are several good fighters in the UFC and Bellator.....Conor Mcgregor holds two belts in the UFC, Donald Cerrone is entertaining on and out of the ring, just to name two. Benson Henderson, from Federal Way has fought in both organizations. And there are talented female fighters too.
the UFC is the highest point you can get, Bellator, ONE, WSF are a few others, the chicks fight in INVICTA, there used to be another fairly large one called PRIDE, but they are gone now, there was also Strikeforce, EliteXC, WEC, DREAM, Shooto, ect...
K1 is another one, its kickboxing, but theres grappling, basically it would be a UFC match in a boxing ring, ALOT of great fights came there, especially Cro Cop and Fedor, Arlovski, Overeem, Hoost, Mark Hunt, ect...
the UFC is where MMA fighters hope to land, if they are good enough....
fvck Connor McGregor, i cant stand that guy, watch what happens when he fights Diaz again, or he could just fight Nick, unlike Nate, Nick can knock people out...

Mike, did you see that Swanson, Choi fight tonight? That was a freeking war.....hay maker after hay maker. One of the best fights I've ever seen.

Cub Swanson vs. Dooho Choi was a main card bout from UFC 206. I don't buy the PPV fights, but always watch the prelims. Not sure how you saw it today as the fight was Dec. 10th.
EVO: I watch 'em all...
p.s. Just watched it on youtube..yep, as always Swanson is a scrapper. He's one tough dude, and is gonna bring it every fight.
You want to watch an awesome fight, look up the Nam Phan vs. Leonard Garcia fight..that was one of the best fights I've seen.
It was on Fox, channel 13 for free. I'll watch Nam Phan vs. Leonard Garcia.

Even thought it was a replay from December 10th, I watched the Swanson-Choi fight last night......great fight! They gave it their all. The Cerrone fight was good too.

Sad to see it, but Rhonda's days in the octagon are over.
There's a new field of fighters that have come of age, and while her judo skills carried her for years, these new fighters are bigger, stronger and are fine tuned ass-whooping machines.
Miesha Tate said that Nunes hits with intense power..just like a man. Look at her shoulders..nuthin' but muscle. She's one badass dyke!
Cruz got what he had coming to him, and CG earned that belt. Can't wait to see Garbrandt take on TJ Dillishaw..that's gonna be one hellova battle..
Hendricks missed weight..again, but IMO he won that fight.
Mike Pyle getting KO'd had to be the knockout of the night!

Duc, UFC fights on now at FS1, with the main card on Ch. 13 (fox) starting at 5.
Be sure and catch the Cerrone vs. Masvidal fight...that's going to be an ass kicker (or head kicker..lol)
Hope my boy Cerrone kicks his butt all over the cage..
Missed it....give me a call next time. Ron
