I don't wanna know...anything.

 

[Sabretooth]

Let's just say,Ortiz will more than likely beat Lidell's ass.









Wait,not like that!

 

[The FallenAngel]

Somebody kill me now.

 

[Eric Draven]

Go Jason MacDonald!

 

[The FallenAngel]

Canadian's can't fight.

 

[DBella]

^You're dead wrong and GSP will kick your ass for that.
But then again, he could be the only exception.

 

[Eric Draven]

MacDonald is totally gonna kick ass tomorrow

 

[The FallenAngel]

And then lose.

 

[Sabretooth]

Oh Snap!

 

[Eric Draven]

You shut up. You shut up and die

 

[The FallenAngel]

You caught feelings...hahahahaha.

 

[DBella]

MacDonald will go against Leben, I believe, so I gotta root for my Seattle boy.

Man, I am so excited for tomorrow's fights!

 

[Warhammer]

*Awaits tonight*

Maybe Hooters is showing it for free.

You might even be seated by a beautiful waitress,who you should propose to.

 

[Eric Draven]

I can't believe how UFC is getting crazy big here. But that could be because MacDonald is fighting and a lot of first-timers want to see the local boy fight

 

[Sabretooth]

In general it's amazing how it's grown. It's come a long way from what it used to be.... **** was ****ing barbaric at one time.

 

[Eric Draven]

Yep. They used to pride themselves that they were considered "Real fighting". But that got them banned from a lot of places. They've cleaned themselves up a lot though. Instituted a lot of new rules. I remember watching the old UFCs and it was all tournament style.


Seeing how much UFC has changed and seeing it grow kind of gives me hope for the WWE version of ECW actually.....

 

[DBella]

The UFC was banned for quite some time until they make some changes to make the sport "safer". Before they used to fight with bare knuckles but now they've to use gloves.

Boxing used to be a bigger sport and I still am a fan of Boxing but... it's not like it used to be. There aren't that many great fighters in Boxing anymore. It seems like there's a new champion every month and the truly great fighters are so few. It's just not as much fun watching Boxing anymore. I still enjoy watching the sport on ESPNClassics though.

I still have tapes (yes, tapes, this was before the DVD era) of those old UFC fights and I don't mind how it was at all. It was raw and quite brutal.

UFC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Boxing

UFC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Boxing

Over the last few years, definitely.
In Boxing's golden era, I'd say they are both equally great.

I hated the tournament style though. Especially if some guys fought three matches in one night to make it to the finals but got injured. They just substituted some other, fresher, guy into the finals. I'm just glad they scrapped that after a while...

True. Which is why I think it's better now. But I really didn't mind the raw brutality of it.

 

[Sabretooth]

Whoo I'm pumped for Lidell vs Tito.

 

[The FallenAngel]

Ok, I don't have all the results, or details, but:

Spoiler

Bisping picked up a win. MacDonald beat Leben. Arlovski got a win. Jardine knocked Griffin out. From what I can tell, Chuck beat Tito in the third.
