MMA is a fistfight that ALLOWS wrestling. Let's not get this backwards.

I was reading along to OP, thinking to myself "Ugh, he doesn't really have a good point, but let me try and see from his perspe-...."

and then read your response. LOL, you fucking nailed it!
 
Or at least it should be. Too much boring wrestling is a sport killer. Positional non-submission wrestling should be tolerated to a very small degree, just as a means to get in position for the submissions or gnp. Ideally all groundwork would be around 25% of the fight. UFC needs to get on this right away and come up with a solution they can shop to the ACs
Casual
 
Let them do all the strikes and a lot of these stalemate positions that suck balls currently will become exciting.

North and South is so neutered and useless under united lame ass rules that nobody even bothers using it. It should be LETHAL Zand something where bad shots can be punished via knees and hopefully also more anaconda and darce choke finishes.
Awesome. Awesome for all viewers, bjj enthusiasts and human cockfighting blood thirsty Neanderthals (myself included in both groups)

Not only will this allow for more finishes, it also naturally creates more opportunities for scrambles and thus standups and back to the old swangin and bangin

Pride had it right near 3 decades ago, with the ring, the rules, the round times and the judging criteria, what they had back then is still superior to what we have now. The only thing that Pride never allowed was elbows, and I always found that bizarre when you could literally stomp a guy in the head.

Wrestling is a form of fighting, but when you take someone down and your not allowed to knee them in the head, it's not fighting, it's a sport.

When you're on you back and someone is trying to rain punches on you while they are on their knees, and you are not allowed to upkick, it's not fighting, it's sport.

One FC was a nice shake up to what we still have now in the UFC.
RIZIN fixed the issue with the PRIDE rules, utilizing PRIDE rules + elbows. Everything works in pretty straight forward fashion there, the majority of the fights are exciting, there are no deaths, and not a ton of stalling bc there are less restrictions on how you can attack your opponent. God bless 'em.

Dude go and watch Glory or boxing then. Goddard did his best to insert some unfair standups of course.
 
Fucking losers on here crying about what is essentially mma jiu jitsu, wrestling, sambo, judo, pathetic dipshits trying to rewrite what a almost 40 year old sport with roots in grappling is to satisfy their lazy short attention spans and ignorance, modern UFC fans are the absolute worst of all sports and why I skip so many UFC events because of what dogshit it has become the retards need social media drama to be interested enough and want grappling out which is imo more than one half of what mma is all about.


Royce Gracie won 3 UFC tournaments using jiu jitsu the others Severn with wrestling and Taktarov, Ruas with Sambo and Luta livre, ya we should just erase grappling to appease the whiny shithead fanbase of gen z go suck a bag of dicks.

The literal name of the sport destroys your entire retarded argument.

That reminded me of the Robbie Ring fight from a couple of years ago.

Undefeated small town kid from a family gym getting beaten up by a serious Mexican prospect.
 
the fun of mma is the physical chess match it is. that was the genius of gsp, always mixing it up, having an answer for everything that came at him. the best fights are when dudes are constantly changing it up going back and forth and keeping each other guessing.
