Big fan of watching fights. As far actually training and wanting to use my own fists.....hey, that's why I got into guns.

Since we're talking about MMA, am I the only one who thinks there may be something supernaturally involved with Anderson Silva? No man should be able to be that calm and relaxed....I would even say happy to have another extremely skilled fighter taking swings at him. He does everything wrong, and he doesn't loose. I see him with his mouth open and his hands at his sides. Those are the two leading contributors to unconsciousness in a fight. Ridiculous. But I love it!

I am definitely an MMA fan, watch most UFC fights. I have been training Brazillian Jiu Jitsu for about 6 months.. It's certainy a sport that takes at least a decade to master.

Been training for six years. Yep, it's fun.

You know, that's funny to me. It certainly takes a different colored duck to play the game. I mean, sure most men might like to dish out a beating, but to take one too and call it fun? Nah, not for me. I understand, respect and appreciate the mutual respect and good sportsmanship among most fighters. That doesn't make it any less weird. Two guys can go out and drink together and chase women all night after having beat the piss out of one another a few hours earlier. I'm sorry, but if you punch me in the mouth, we can't be friends anymore. That's just how I'm wired.

I'm glad it is the way it is though. It's best entertainment, sportswise, money can buy.

I'm just glad Walmart sells 3X TAPOUT shirts so I can tell if someone is a douchebag without even having to talk to them. :) I respect those who ACTUALLY do the sport, however. I prefer boxing, but not brawling. I also enjoyed Forrest Griffin's book Be Ready When the Sh*t Goes Down.

yeah there are so many douche bags that wear there little tapout shirts and crap and they also think UFC is a sport they make me laugh...

Are you saying that you do not like the UFC? That it is rigged or ? Do you like a different promotion or you just do not like the UFC because of their business practices?
