Frank "Mur" vs Noguiera

A good stand-up scrap is good as well though. But out on the street, putting someone to sleep is the way to go

I have respect for your opinion but you just don't know much about the sport to comment on it and its fighters

Jeebus, does no one read?

Did I say I hate the sport? No, I said I don't understand it.

And yes, I clicked the link to see how a former WWE wrestler (another "sport" I don't get, but find humorous) would fare in a competition where real fighting occurs.

But you're right, I don't know much about the sport. I thought you had to be in shape to compete at a high level. Now you're telling me that's not the case. Hey, maybe I've got a chance, then?

This whole "debate" is beyond ridiculous now. Sorry I hurt your delicate sensibilities by calling a chubby guy "chubs."

Heaven forbid

Lol same question here actually.

As my 8 year old nephew asks, "what the problem is?"

We're having a debate. No biggie. My feelings ain't hurt. I hope nobody else's are. It's the Internet. People have opinions and disagree.

Here's to hoping the next few pages of this thread turn into a technical MMA discussion

I'll kick it off with agreeing that Mir v Big Nog II was a masterful display of high level BJJ. Never thought Mir would pull off that roll, and I knew there was no way Big Nog would tap. That was one of the most unbelievable finishes I have ever seen!

Frank Mir: limb collector

[MikeMoach]

My feelings ain't hurt, just trying to understand each other if you ask me

As for fights you can't go wrong watching a Liddell v Ortiz fight

Amen! Definitely a top 10 fight. Nobody ever busted up Ortiz in his prime like Liddell.

[Iwantone2]

It's just that I saw the words "(uneducated) opinion" somewhere, and to me, them's fightin' words

I was hoping this thread would be more discussing about Dave Bautista's performance and MMA in general, not back and forth about someone's opinion. But as long as it is a healthy discussion, then cool!

And yes, Frank "Mur" is a limb collector

Well, I said my piece on Bautista early. Impressive debut? No. Good attitude and respectable effort? Yes.

I live MMA (literally), so I'm up for any discussion!

I agree...he did not look too impressive. I know he trains under one of the Gracie's for his JJ, but I don't know much else about his MMA skills.

I was training at the Gracie Academy here in Torrance, CA for a while, but had to drop it for financial reasons (I got laid off from my job).
