Pride was barbaric and inhumane

[ryanrandy]

Been following MMA for 15 years and I just want to say how grateful I am for the UFC, Dana White and Unified Rules. UFC has surpassed Pride in so many, many ways but the biggest is humanity.

Stomps and Soccer kicks and stomps to the head of downed opponents were just sickening to watch and detrimental to fighters careers. How anything of that could nature could ever be allowed in a SPORT is beyond me. If you call yourself a fan of the sport you should care about fighter safety.

I for one, am so very very glad the UFC fixed Pride rules.

Wasn't only Pride buddy. Some orgs still got the balls to allow it today.

TS talks like all Pride fights ended like this:

Just some fights had soccer kicks and stomps, and most of the missed.
A soccer kick to the face is not going to be so different than a fucking flying knee to the jaw.

Lol wut? You ever see a soccer ball clear a field from a knee?

Sherdog is still full of guys who still come all over their wall everyday just thinking about it.

everything about this post was wrong,

but the last sentence.

Not really. A knee strike can be as devastating as a kick, if not more.

Proved by science.

All strikes should be allowed, because if you can't intelligently defend, the ref should stop the fight anyways.

The only things that should be disallowed are eye pokes, strikes to the gonads, biting, and attacking small joints.

Though I'm in favour of small joint attacks, believe it would change the game on the ground
