I didn't know that. According to Wikipedia, it seems like elbow strikes of any kind were fouls. So, I was completely wrong.

I do. In fact, I was making a thread about Pride Rules, but it was so long, I erased it. I have learned that this forum is not the place for serious discussions. It is more about entertainment and light banter. When I made my "The truth about Fedor's Record" thread, I looked over the Pride...

6'41" minutes of dick riding McGregor. He doesn't even touch on all the mistakes that McGregor is making that better fighters could exploit. When McGregor throws a punch, he too is overextended and looks like he is going to fall over. With his chin often fully exposed. He moves in and out...

More proof that Jon Jones would have completely destroyed Fedor, even worse, with Pride Rules. Pride Rules Jon Bones Jones would be too much of a wrecking machine. I believe part of Jon Jones' Octagon hesitation is calculating which strikes are legal vs illegal. The unified rules slows Jon...

Or it could make him susceptible to future KO's. Brutal battles didn't make Cigano a better fighter. He is now getting KO'd left right and center.

(1) I would agree with you, if the entire mma community didn't call Tyron Woodley's masterful performance versus Demian Maia "boring." I have never watched a sport where the so called experts called a masterful performance boring. If the experts don't know what they are talking about or can't...

Snoop Dogg calls that the "take that booty" position. HAHAHA

Conor McGregor, Ronda Rousey and Brock Lesnar are outliers. Two very respected fighters who are known in the mainstream media, and fought on an awesome card couldn't crack 1M PPV (Cormier vs Jones). Ferguson vs Lee is good enough to do the average or better, but not worse.

No, it isn't. Maybe you are choosing to look it at from a "I have to defend the sport I love perspective," instead of taking a logical stance. Every sport/art or whatever has a point when people can do it part-time or whatever, and still be successful. However, as the sport grows, and becomes...

I am not a mma fighter.

I am not gay, sorry.

Not yet, but maybe. Anybody has a chance in MMA. Easiest sport to be champion, for now.

So, some of you guys think that Capoeira is just a dance, but a backflip makes a mma fighter "athletic." HAHAHAHAHA He is just an average joe (in athletic ability). MMA is still in the stage where average joe's (in athletic ability) can be successful. The HW champ is a Fireman for crying out...

I accept all fighters' excuses. I am just wondering why the fans are not putting pressure on him to save the card. Like a few others have stated, it is probably because he isn't on the radar. Taking Ngannou on short notice would have brought some attention to him and the HW division. He...

What has McGregor ever done in the Octagon that is so awkward and confusing? Cabo Nate Diaz was able to touch him, and almost KO'd him. If his opponents had a clue about boxing, they would have used all the opportunities he gives them to KO him, and KOd him. It is on the tape. I just...

And lose all the money he made on a lawsuit, and attorney fees? I don't think (1) He is stupid and (2) He is a dirty fighter.

I agree with him. Think about this, Kovalev an elite boxer couldn't go 12 rounds with Andre Ward in two fights, and Conor McGregor will in his first professional fight? Conor struggled to go 5 rounds with Nate Diaz, twice, in a sport that doesn't require as much endurance.

when he is gassed out after 4 rounds with Mayweather, and he is eating shots to the body and face, and realizes that this is not mma, you can't just fall down and surrender to your opponent, in order to avoid the inevitable KO/TKO? HAHAHAHA

Saving UFC215. I understand Stipe's probably excuses. I am just surprised that the fans are not putting any pressure on him to save the card. Like another poster stated, it is probably because he is too vanilla, and the fans don't expect too much excitement from him. They just want him to...

I think this is a great time for Stipe to take on Ngannou. Ngannou is still new, and the JDS fight was his path to Stipe anyways. If I was Stipe, I would take out Ngannou now, like McGregor took out Max Holloway when he was 3-2 in the UFC, and now Conor fans can say "Conor beat the FW GOAT and...
