UFC 122 Talk

[Matt "Gumby" Glach]

People want bigger names, but COME ON. Your complaining and you haven't even seen the fights yet. These guys work harder than I ever will and they're on tv and people are complaining. How would that make you feel as a professional ?

I honestly don't care how the fighters feel as professionals, they get paid by the UFC, and they get their chance in the spotlight on tv to show me what they've got, and if I am impressed, well then on the NEXT card that I see them on, I might think differently about the overall quality of that card. I'm all for giving the lesser-knowns a shot at the lime light, but that's what smaller shows should be for, like the fight nights on spike, which I'd love to see a lot more of. But this is supposed to be a big UFC event, second time ever in Germany, etc. I just think the UFC has enough big names where they can at least round out the card with some bigger draws, it's not like there arn't big name fighters waiting in the wings looking for a fight.

4/5 prelim fights were finishes. The main card has been good so far

It was an awesome UFC event. On paper it didn't look that good. But even all of the prelims where awesome. The only kinda boring fight was the main event.

Many thanks to Joe and Eddie who made it possible for me to watch the event live in the arena!
Love you guys!

Honestly...I'm tired of watching the UFC. What made MMA exciting for me in the first place were the style match ups. I feel like the UFC is becoming all about who is the most freakishly athletic. IMO two dudes trying to out score each other with athleticism just makes for boring fights.

I would rather watch ADCC, or even big international Gi tournaments. I mean BJJ is the reason why MMA was exciting to me in the first place.
