During the match when they display significant strikes/takedowns etc. I think it would be cool if they had a stats breakdown at the end of matches. Much like the pre-fight analysis. Last I saw, though GSP was cut up, he was still ahead on strikes and takedowns by 30%. Cut's and blood doesn't mean you win. I'm on the fence with the fight, myself.

The 10 point system is garbage and shouldn't apply to mma. The 10 point system ruined boxing and is beginning to do the same thing to MMA.

MMA is about damage, not stratgically placed takedowns, holding someone down to "control" the fight. Scoring rounds a 10-9 in some of these fights is a fucking travesty! When a guy is getting dominated he shouldn't be kept in the fight because of rules from boxing scoring it that way.

Also, the rules the way they are automatically favored heavily in the way for wrestlers. Controlling/holding someone down is not winning a fight simply because they aren't fighting. It's stalling not to mention miserably boring to watch.

To add that, a lot of people fail to notice that some of the best submission guys in the world aren't even bothering with the UFC/MMA and that is directly because of the boxing rules that governs MMA. Most judges have ZERO martial arts experience and have no idea what they are looking at. Hell, a lot of fans don't even get what they are looking at when it comes to the submission part of mma. They don't understand the chess match that is occurring. The ONLY way judges seem to score for a submission guy is if he is on top striking. Which takes out half of the game working from the bottom. There is no consideration of for working off the back or multiple submission attempts setting them up, executing etc.

Nope, it's still all Neanderthal boxing style judging and rules. If MMA has done anything since it's inception it had proved how in adequate it is as a form of combat and the same can be said about it's rules and governing base.

No doubt. So why is it that there aren't MMA specific judges by now? Figure Dana and co. could get something like that started up. I'm assuming it's the only way that the sport can be legally sanctioned/accepted? Maybe a division of said commission?

What grocery store keeps the cock soup right above the Froot Loops??

Nice catch lol

The commissions are government employees. White and the Ferittas have absolutely no say in how it's run or which judges are put into place. If they were to turn their back on the commission it would be a 20 year step back into the dark ages back when John McCain had something to bitch about the fighters being unprotected.

Seems fitting really. I'm more wondering who is the person that knows the difference between natural artificial cock flavors. It must be that Grace chick on the box who makes great Cock soup.

Right. You would just think that by now they would have some sort of middle ground with how wildly popular the sport is and how much the commission is despised.

Absolutely. To add to that I would think Nevada would be open to something not wanting the UFC to go elsewhere. With White nervous holding events in Nevada now and that could really hurt with the revenue it brings in Las Vegas.
