SO you guys think backwards and upside down about everything, and not just most things? Being intelligent and actually thinking things through is more "enlightened" than thinking backwards. I hope some of you realize this before it's too late.
There were degenerate types in the early UFC, but they were really just "slightly better than your average boxer" types that had that image pushed on their behalf, outside of the Datsik and Howard types that were crazy. Once high level combat athletes from jj, amateur wrestling, Olympic Judo, and even other TMA's who had cross trained started coming in you had more honor and sportsmanship involved than in American Football etc...
