really what "guys" are champs? Tim sylvia, Tito Ortiz, Chuck Liddel, Vanderlai Silva, Antonio rodrigo Noguiera, Carlos newton, BJ penn, matt hughes, murillo Rua,Tank abbot, Frank Mir etc etc etc ..and I could go on forever have all trained in BJJ to some extent..
No stlye has had as much succes a BJJ..now other stlyes are cross training in it and having succes with their own tactics. |

That's the lesson I've taken from all this.

Hey "Ryno", If you think UFC is scripted, GET IN THE RING. You clearly don't know jack about MMA, so don't pretend you do.

I personally don't think it's scripted, but it does have a lot more rules than it used to. I have tapes of the early ones those were awesome.

MMA has no more rules than any other competitive martial art.

| I never said that, but it was more interesting to me when it had less rules, I still think it's great. |

i used to think that but really the rules force fighter to obtain a higher skill level...i mean you can just lay in someone gaurd and headbut them..alot of the tactics they got rid of were not fight enders anyways.
but the old ones are fun to watch. |

| Yeah, you have a point about forcing the fighter to obtain a higher skill level. I do like when the ref picks them up and restarts, it is more exciting in that respect. |

True, I didn't mean to jump on you. I still love the older UFC's, where it was more style vs style. Now everyone is so much more versed in all the aspects of the game that most fighters are interchangable.
