Is the sport being flooded with pansies?

Ive been watching this stuff since the early 90s. Ufc 2 on tape was my first event and i havent missed a beat. From superbrawl, to pride, wec, strikeforce ive watched a lot.

but what i notice now are a bunch pansies who are watching this sport. Guys constantly wanting fights to be stopped right when a guy gets dropped. Or not wanting soccer kicks or 12-6 elbows or knees to a grounded opponent. This sport was meant to be the closest to a full fight and true purist fans should always want that.

i get that sanctioning and laws have forced the sport to a happy median as far as brutality, but a true fan should always want more pure rawness of a fight, not a watered down sport. Its become something in its own. But now im seeing stuff like, “omg he hit him 2 more times than i wanted him to before the ref stopped it”!

Anyone else notice a bunch of guys who are scared of violence watching now?

inb4, how would u like it if ur son got soccer kicked. Well i wouldnt want my son to get headkicked either.
 
Fight to the death then, I'm down (to watch it).

There are ways to liven up the sport without ratcheting up the brutality. What about adding a bit of strategy to the mix ? Give each fighter a 1 minute time out they can call any time.
 
Whatever.
There are early stoppages,and late ones,and opinions will be divided on which are which.
Shit was the same 10 yrs ago.

This thread is all crying and bitching,so the pansy was YOU the whole time !!!!!!

I don’t think viewers are scared of violence. I think most viewers understand it’s a sport. Now, if sherdog has a dedicated football forum I can see where one could come to a conclusion that pansies have ruined that sport.

You should stay in your basement with your doritos is what I think

That would be fuckin retarded.

If I saw a guy trying to call time i'd immediatley beat the shit out of them. The referee would not be able to stop the action in time,and it would just be a stupid gimmicky thing to pause the action we were actually trying to watch.
 
No, what has been happening globally since the smartphone destroyed humanity is that every asshole in the world who was too stupid to know where the internet was for 15 years is now on the internet, blurting dumb shit out of their fart dispenser and if you read enough of what people have to say, the dumb shit is what sticks with you the most.

Anyone else notice rage nerds complaining about pansies? It's easy to be open and honest about your sadism when you remain anonymous online.

I do have to admit that someone who claims to care about fighters on the pay issue also thinks they should take some extra punches when they're pretty much unconscious though.

I took a break and only watched some fights.

Since I've been back more, the fights now days do look like they get stopped earlier.

It makes it harder to protest a stoppage when a lot of them are "early".

Not saying any of this death ish that people are talking about but the ref used to give them more time and some of them would fight out of it.

On the other hand, this way should make it more rare for fighters to take shots while they are clearly down or out.

I dont even mind people being sadistic,but thats their problem not ours.

Go "rEbEl AgAiNsT ThE MoDeRn WoRlD" in the war room pls
 
Why? I dont understand that.


The lines are blurred, now.

The field goal from what constitutes a fighter being "done" has been pushed forward.

Coming back from a break after what we used to watch, so many of the stoppages look earlier than when a ref would previously call it, so it's hard to say "early" because they almost all look early.

It should definitely help with the fighters long term health, though, which is definitely a benefit.

<WellThere>
 
most of that pussy shit just comes from cry babies who lost bets or dick riders whose crush got murked. If it'd been their boy who inflicted the brutality, they'd be cheering it on like any other just bleeder
