The mma thread. UFC Fight island is real: Everybody died

its overeem 2.0

I’m just tripping of some of the comments. Child abuse? Seriously?

lol I don’t get it. I don’t have martial arts experience and I could do the same thing.

meh…ive done far worse to kids at karate. this is why cameras dont belong in the dojo…people are too fuckin pansy.

btw the goat retiring after he ankle picks aoki for murica

It’s that Askren never got picked up for ufc or re-signed to bellator

Askren so much better than a lot of ww

oh we all know why hes retiring. its lame. everyone afraid he gonna jon fitch their division.

Which makes no sense since his last couple of fights in bellator and most of his onefc fights ended with him finishes

I really think ufc is the pettiest because of dana being a wild dickhead who talks down to his fighters like some type of slave owner

Either way vs Aoki is gonna be a good fight. I think everybody in here knows the UFC match making and fighter retention is some of the worst in the business, especially if your not caucasian. Askren must have slapped Whites head or something he usually the type of fighter White gets on his knees for.

i doubt its gonna be that good of a fight. japans biggest kryptonite is intermediate to high level wrestling. like as a country they are trash against it.

sorry who? i vaguely remember that name.

that nigga aignt fought in a whole mma generation it def does work.

RockB with the Gill resurrection, what wizardry is this?

Book this shit!!!

hahahaha We gonna have the WORST UFC PPV OF ALL TIME

Most friends are trying to sell off their tickets.

I’ve also heard friends saying that. Cause the lower tier dudes usually fight harder for a KOoTN or FoTN and to show off their skills.

I’m starting to think I’m getting trolled. Now they’re saying they know for a fact that Bruce had better stamina than Conor McGregor and he would have easily lasted 12 rounds against Floyd Mayweather, despite the fact that we’ve never seen Bruce Lee compete professionally in any combat sport.

That’s exactly what you’re doing by claiming that a novice in boxing who hasn’t even fought professionally in any combat sport can beat one of the greatest boxers ever, alsào claiming to believe that Bruce was being humble by saying that Ali would’ve just “rocked him” in a fight despite not proving that he could even be competitive against a competent boxer within his own weight devision, let alone Ali who was almost twice his bodyweight.

Another thing people still seem not to understand is how hard boxers hit. In the 70’s black belt magazine measured the striking force of all martial art styles, boxing included, and they found out that boxers hit the hardest and fastest. In a documentary on the discovery channel that I recorded on a VHS tape (years ago) an editor of black belt magazines (or some other martial arts publication) explained that eventhough it was proven in the 70’s that boxers strike a lot harder and faster than other martial artists these martial arts styles didn’t change to incorporate boxing because they don’t want to break from tradition and view boxing methods as being superior to what they’ve been taught for generations.

I used to be a Wing Chun and JKD fanatic in my teens, until I realised that people who vouched for this style could never prove its effectiveness in any situation, and at that time Brazilian jiu-jitsu was gaining exposure and constantly proving itself against all styles without making excuses.

Most of you are still in awe with people like Dan Inosanto just because they knew Bruce Lee and not because they actually proved themselves as fighters. Dan Inosanto saying Bruce was a good boxer means absolutely nothing. This is a guy who thought that “stick fighting” would be a great addition to JKD.

Saying Bruce can overcome the restrictions in boxing is clearly contradicting the video you posted earlier which implied that Bruce would not care for MMA because of the minor rules and even less restrictions than boxing.

I never said Conor would win or that Bruce would last 12 rounds. I’ve not made a single statement or claim about Bruce’s stamina.

**Citation **please.

I never claimed Bruce would beat Ali, or that Conor would beat Floyd for that matter. You seem to have missed the fact that I don’t really like Bruce Lee at all.

Wow. Punching specialists hit harder and faster than non-specialists. Imagine my shock.

Admitting your limitations seems like textbook humility to me. You’re just upset that I never speculated how bad the fight would go. Bruce said he would lose, that’s good enough for me.

At this point all you’re doing is masturbating over pure boxing.

Wing Chun sucks. Bruce knew it, so do most people. But it’s not the techniques that suck, it’s the training process. After all, it has all your typical strikes and kicks and shit, even the stop kick which we see in MMA (yeah it’s in Savate and other things too, but WC made it popular).

The beauty of starting out in combat sports like TKD and Muay Thai is that…you don’t give much of a shit about Bruce Lee or his followers. Never met Dan Inosanto, never seen anything impressive out of him.

Wait…is UFC 215 tonight?
Why did I think it was next week?
