Mixed Martial Arts

[John Vella]

Are any of you into this fantastic sport (Pride FC, UFC, Cage Rage) as either a recreational participant or a fan?

im a fan,but i like K1 far more.much more technical and entertaining!

[John Vella]

Well I reckon the striking is obviously alot more technical in K-1 coz that's all you can do. I prefer MMA coz its so much more well rounded with the grappling & submissions as well as the strikes but fair play to you man... :)

K1 is also good stuff!!! :)

I am biased towards Pride FC coz I prefer the submissions side of it, but I do see how people can find that part of it boring.

K1 sounds good, I haven't seen that! I do like cage fighting though, but I don't like the submission side of it so much.

I remember this thing called Bushido on Sky Sports used to be good, I haven't seen it in a while though, doesn't seem to be on any more, dunno if it's still going in Japan, but it was certainly more technical than Cage fighting.

And I wouldn't fancy being a contestant, are you mad? Haha

[John Vella]

Bushido is part of Pride FC. That's my favorite organization. Some of my Brazillian Jiu Jitsu instructors are preparing for it. (They are pros-- well good at it!!) :) :)

I absolutely LOVE combat sports :love: and follow K1 , muay thai & Pride FC. My background is muay thai , boxing , & WTF/olympic taekwondo with lots of crosstraining in wrestling & a little groundfighting. Personally I find striking more entertaining but that's just me.

[marginmaster]

yeah its quality, can be abit gruesome. its good to see the grapplers v punchers, usually an interesting fight. grapplers usually win

[basslinejunkie]

K1 v's UFC would be wicked
