Point fighting.
WMMA.
Everyone looks the same now.
Severely malnourished and grossly underweight fighters.
No soccer kicks
No headbutts
No downward elbows
No knees to the head on the ground
No back of head shots
No spine shots
All these things about MMA suck, and MMA was not made for all these rules, the whole entire point of ultimate fighting was that, Ultimate Fighting. thats how the sport is supposed to be.
yeah I'm not too bothered about that, we can keep the no spine shots but please allow soccer kicks, it makes it so much more fun to watch.I'm not opposed to the "no spine shots" rule... Back injuries don't really go away, and they're easy to cause, but apart from that I'm all in favour.
For me it's the hug spammers like Nik Lentz and Usman... Dudes are literally shrugging at the cameras and apologising during their fights because they know how boring it is to watch a man hold another man in the same position for minutes on end without attempting to attack or hurt him in any way. That's not a fight.yeah I'm not too bothered about that, we can keep the no spine shots but please allow soccer kicks, it makes it so much more fun to watch.
The worst for me is point fighting, I hate it so much, its ruining UFC. Guys like Sergio Pettis are a disease to the sport, I can't believe it took UFC so long to cut him, every fight was on repeat, it was the same fight over and over on loop, just against a different opponent, you knew it was going to a decision as soon as it was booked lol
Yup totally agree buff, guys like Usman are not easy to watch at all, he has huge problems finishing, even low level prelim guys he couldn't finish them, I don't like the thought of him being champ for long, unless he can change a lot. He is a top class wrestler and very very very physically strong, but his fights also look like they are on loop, once you see one Usman fight you have seen them allFor me it's the hug spammers like Nik Lentz and Usman...

Yellow cards were awesome. Remember that time Rampage got a yellow and went crazy and KTFO the guy seconds later and demanded it be taken away in his post fight interview? We need more of that.
Yes,we shouldn't like anyone. No excitement. EVER.The stupid, emotional fans falling for every fucking hype trains. These days it's Masvidal, until he gets wrecked. Then it will be someone else
It might look fun,and sexy but jockeying for cock position is one of the most exhausting aspects of mma.I hate it when they start hitting each other, just laying into each other like neanderthals
it's not cock fighting
Also hate when they start cock fighting

Personally, I would prefer it if fighters never did it. If you're angry when you start, be angry when it's over.I'm more annoyed by high fives and hugs during the fight... do that shit after the fight is over.
I hate those moments where a fighter is in a dominant position, but doesn't do anything with it, and the fighter being dominated starts pretending to yawn and looks bored, be it up against the fence, or any kind of top control... Absolute crime.
In those situations restarts need to happen more. I can't deal with stagnant fights, they make me wonder why I bother.
I'm a big fan of Yellow Cards like in Pride.
