Its not so bad... but they just hit so hard. I've never been in a fight before... I've never even HIT anyone, so its hard for me to get into violent stuff.

Girls

well i actually dont have a problem with violence if it's in retaliation. at least there's a damn reason for it lol it's the whole violence as a "sport" thing that confuses me.

there was a youtube video of these teenage girls beating this other girl up pretty badly at a sleepover, and i was so angry watching it like, "wtf!!! why wont she defend herself!"

i would never let some stupid fucking cheerleader get away with beating me up. i'd go ape shit and fight dirty..do whatever i need to in order to get out of a situation like that if i'm being ganged up on by a group. you better believe if there's a knife or soemthing laying around, i'm gonna use it.

Originally posted by Slylee it's dirty and i don't respect it. it's glorified street fighting.

No, it's martial arts that finally isn't pansy. It's spiritual, honorable, and requires a hell of a lot more confidence and motivation than a judo hugging competition.

Street brawl-esque beatdowns are frowned upon by the (true) fans and the administration who run it. Watch this fight to see a true battle between two guys who absolutely love what they're doing. They high five each other DURING THE FIGHT. Just brilliant.





Sorry Banora! TA doesn't tell me when I have a new message anymore.

My parents weren't... ah, the best of parents. I still remember the first day of school I was super excited and my dad told me to come into the back-yard. I walked back there and he was swinging a bat around and when I asked him what he was doing he said: "Showing you an example. If I EVER hear of you fighting, even if someone else throws the first punch, I'll beat you with this bat. Understand?"

Needless to say I was scared shitless to ever do anything physical to anyone. I remember a few months later I splashed soapy water into a girl's eyes by accident and was more upset than she was (because I thought I'd get a note sent home and get hurt); so I learned how to talk my way out of fights. Its always worked for me, really. I just make them see that beating me up is a waste of time and they usually agree.


However, I say I hate violence, yet I love stuff like Mythbusters where they blow shit up or empty a machine gun into a dead frozen pig.

I watch a lot of mma, I'll be hanging out on saturday watching it, a friend will call, and I'll say I'm watching strikeforce/affliction/random one on the internet and they will say "oh i didn't know there was a UFC on tonight?". Kills me, MMA does not equal UFC. UFC deserves a lot of credit for getting the sport to where it is, but it isn't the messiah.

Anyway, can't wait for saturday. Most looking forward to Henderson/Bisping. I'll admit I have heard good things about Bisping as a person, but that doesn't change me wanting to see Henderson annihilate him. Been a fan of Henderson for a lot longer.
