Just look up street fighting on your favorite video streaming website and you'll have more than enough Vale Tudo.

Jack of Hearts posted:How does judo typically fare in MMA? I'm taking a judo course next quarter because the trips and throws look cool, but it seems like as a discipline it sits at an unhappy medium in the MMA world. Like Gi BJJ, it relies a lot on the opponent having a Gi to do a lot of the moves. And in most MMA promotions they won't let you wear a Gi. So while some the moves will work, some won't. Wrestling is a better way to get the fight to the ground.

He was an all right fighter who fought a lot of cans handpicked by his management, making it really easy to amass large unbeaten streak like his. The main problem is his fans are retarded and continue to think he's the best fighter ever when his record is mostly filled with crap fighters.

No, just like any fighter you can be a fan if you're not stupid about it. It just so happens that Fedor fans are usually defensive and a little stupid about their favorite racist, which makes them more annoying than the average fighter fan.

If you're able to control your opponent so much in the grappling aspect that they can't mount an offense or escape I'd say that's pretty effective.

1. BJ came out with a gameplan Fitch didn't see coming and didn't train for so it's okay for him to get outwrestled for the first bit of the fight. 2. Jones is a nice young Christian boy who respects the elderly, and wanted Coleman to feel relevant one last time before he dies. And yes Kos, GSP, and Sonnen are better wrestlers. How are they not?

Except they're not? Who was the best wrestler mark coleman has fought against and won? Dan Severn? GSP and any of the other guys at the top of WW have been facing great wrestlers forever. Of course Mark can look good wrestling all the Kickboxers in Pride. The moment he faced a good wrestler he got the poo poo choked out of him. Got off his dick.

I'm merely interested in the well-being of MMA. A roidraging purple Ohioan is not good for this sport. Anyone who loses to Randy Couture is not good for this sport.
