The U F Motherfucking C 1

If you only ever watch one UFC video, let it be this five minute artwork:
And if you enjoyed that, watch this one too!
These two videos will help you understand UFC.
For myself, its hard to exaggerate how much UFC has changed my life for the better.
This might sound crazy, but it was absolutely a missing part of the puzzle for me.
As a result of the inspiration and motivation it has given me, and the role models I have discovered in the UFC and the fire in my heart I have taken from watching them, I am kicking ass in life like never before.
I believe watching these two short videos will convey something to people who may not understand UFC yet.
I would have chosen a different song, but the videos do an excellent job of giving the uninitiated a small taste of what UFC is about.
Please watch and share your thoughts and opinions.

It's interesting to watch highlights of it but literally every time I've seen a UFC fight, it's almost all grappling, which for a casual fan isn't very exciting. I've seen some UFC fans go nuts watching grappling and I'm just not seeing it, but when the punches, kicks, and all that shit's going on it can be pretty cool to watch. I guess it's like watching NASCAR for the wrecks

Most of the grappling is appreciated by people who have mma experience because it's more technical then it looks

Good video! I recognize most of them. Also, I never cared to watch women's boxing before I liked Ronda Rousey vs Miesha Tate and also Holly Holm KO Ronda Rousey, Holly vs Miesha Tate were good. I'm glad there is a place now for refined catfighting and not merely there for the eye candy.

I do miss boxing and ufc. I also miss training in both arts. I stopped watching boxing due to lame patty cake style fights where you'd have two technical guys clinching half the time and just throwing mostly jabs for most of the fight. I really wish they'd bring back the 15 round championship fights. 12 rounds for most fights is ok imo but for the title matches, cmon..
Women boxing matches are way better I think, they actually throw down and fight. Where as a lot of the guys just clinch and make for a very boring contest.

Definitely one of my favorite fights in UFC history; although I doubt you would see Bass Rutten crying on Ellen after he lost a fight.

They are both for a thinker but I enjoy boxing way more than the ufc. It's entertaining no doubt but its not for me.

Yeah I'm one of the biggest boxing fans you'll ever meet. So is SoloTrip. We're kind of a dying breed these days, lol.

I do wish they'd find a way to eliminate clinching. Or minimize it at least. Guys who use it as a loophole for defense should be penalized swiftly and harshly, and if they continue to do it, then disqualify their asses.
For example, the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquiao "fight" (I put the word fight in quotes because it was a fucking debacle as anybody who witnessed that trash knows). Literally every time Pacquiao got within range, Floyd would tie him up to negate his offense. Every. Fucking. Time. That's not defense, man. Jumping on a guy and smothering him as a tactic, as soon as he gets in range, I mean come on now. And the worst you get from the ref is "break it up", lmao.
There's a lot of boxers out there who don't clinch and put on brilliant displays of boxing, but there's definitely a large contingent of fighters who abuse the shit out of the clinch. and they do it because it's a complete loophole for defense.

This is true as shit. Often I'll go to the homies house for the ppv it's only like 10$ each between 6 or 7 people. The problem is there's drinking throughout the fight and often the ppv ends before anyone expects. Then people start fighting and instantly become mma demigods. It's as stupid as me pretending to be a Pokemon when I was 6 or 7 in kindergarten. I've had minimal training but I'm a damn good boxer. So not very often I would lose. There was this kid that's almost 4 years younger that just annihilated everyone in his path and even I didn't want to fight him. Good mofo to be on ur side. He ended up being a methhead

Football and boxing are indeed worse for Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and brain trauma than MMA.
This is absolutely true, and its not even close.
In boxing, the game is ALL head trauma. There are no leg or body kicks. There is no grappling, wrestling or takedowns. In a boxing match, they ONLY punch each other in the head.
In MMA there are far more defensive options available. If you are getting hit in the head you can shoot for a takedown and go to the ground, etc.
In boxing there are no submissions (armbars, chokes) so the only way to win is a knockout- aka. causing a concussion. Many UFC fights without any knockouts, and sometimes without many head strikes at all.
A boxing match is two guys punching each other in the head. MMA is far more than that, and therefore the percentage of head strikes is less.
Also, in UFC when someone gets knocked out the fight ends instantly. In boxing they do something COMPLETELY INSANE called a "standing eight count" where the REF goes "1... 2... 3..." and if the fighter can stand the fight resumes, even though they are concussed. This allows the boxer to suffer several concussions in a single fight and hundreds or thousands of sub concussive impacts during a match and tens of thousands during training.
Also the larger gloves in Boxing dont protect the brain of the person getting hit with them whatsoever, because brain trauma is caused by the brain being rocked inside the skull by the punch, not the knuckles hitting the face.
A boxing career is FAR worse for your brain than an MMA career, and a boxing match is on average FAR worse for your brain than an MMA fight.
Football is the worst of all. Giant, enormous men wearing full armour with helmets running headlong at each other, smashing into each other=- causes an amount of head trauma similar to many car crashes and far worse than anything that happens in MMA.
Many people have a wrong idea- that MMA is worse for the brain than the ancient and popular pastimes of boxing and Football, when the truth is the opposite.
Of these three, MMA is the least damaging to the brain on average and over a career.

How is it morally repugnant? No one is being forced to fight. Ridiculous.
