You guys watching?
I've recently fallen back into this, I'm in love with all the technical fighting styles in the mix each fight.
I'm adding all the warm up exercises I learned in Tae Kwan Do and am adding in some Muay Thai exercises into my routine. I'm looking at taking Kickboxing in January they offer it at the local college.
David Loiseau is my favorite at the moment, cant get enough of those viscious elbow strikes

I'm sorry I wont be watching it because I don't find the idea of two semi naked men clawing at each other and grunting to be all that appealing. You enjoy yourself though!

Yes actual fighting is something idiots do. UFC is for latent homosexuals.

You can say anything could be an art though if its done skillfully. I made a great sandwich the other day that I would consider to be a work of art.

i wouldn't call ufc/mma fighting "artistic".. its more "athletic" and as artistic as olympic judo or the steeplechase.
true martial arts aren't sports nor confined by rules such as "one-on-one" or "no weapons".
for example muay thai, judo, bjj, kendo, ufc = sports (combat ones) taijtsu, jujutsu, kenjutsu = martial arts

i know what your saying. my sandwiches are always works of art, esspecially with mango chutney.
what i'm getting at is.., it takes a life dedication to compete at a high level of fighting, just as any other sport. When you understand the intricasies and techniques its not just something for "idiots". There is so much going on at this level of compitition.
Sorry to be so bland about it, but i'm sure you disagree when some people say "electrnic music is for idiots, its so repetative and gay!!"
i'd agree about it being more athletic than artistic. But do a search for these fighters...Kazushi Sakuraba, Murico Shogun.

MMA is the Druqs of the Analord.
The crow Kneed some rookie in the jaw lunging at him from about 5 ft away. put him down, it was like the acid of vibert smoothley coming out from a sequence of Aphex Break.
