I'm tired of this "MMA is more effective in a streetfight" BULL****

[JulVal]

MMA is not just grappling, wrestling, and ground game. It also devastating strikes(kicks, muay tha, boxingi, and some karate) etc. Thus it being called, Mixed Martial Arts

[crossybossy]

a good boxer vs. a good kickboxer = kickboxer

a good boxer vs. a good street fighter = boxer

a good boxer vs. a good judo = judo

a good boxer vs. a good karate = karate

boxers just have their hands, other forms emphasize a lot more

I boxed for 3 years then started MMA. MMA is a whole different ballgame.

I don't watch UFC AT ALL, in fact I only watch boxing, but remember MMA is a YOUNG SPORT. it doesn't have the science yet that boxing has. The years down the road it will stop looking barbaric.

but I give credit where its due.

lmao @ the thought of a rear naked choke in a streetfight

[mike19727]

Do you even know what a rear naked choke is dude? Under certain situations it could easily be used effectively in streetfights.

[THe TRiNiTY]

Are you serious? Your legs have 3 times the muscle you arms have for christ sake!!!!


It's like saying a club made out of wood is more effective than a sword made out of steel.

I was kind of joking. I hope you were, too.

[ShatteredGlass]

I know one thing.

If I am in some street brawl I'd rather some mma guy take me down, and then he gets kicked in the head by other guys till he lets me go, rather than Mike Tyson hitting me on the chin, which there is no escape from being ktfo and having a wired jaw for 6 months.

lmao @ how dumb you sound

[mike19727]

That's just it guys. You won't always have friends to jump in and back you up. Sure lots ot times people will be there, but a huge of amounts of fights involve two people. Boxing is a sport, so is MMA, both have weaknesses for the street. But, MMA would be better as it stands.

[ShatteredGlass]

I remember one time, two thugs Attacked Tyson!

with iron bollards or some such. He hit them both and ko'd them.

If it was an mma guy, he would take the first one down, and then get hit in the head with a bollard by the other one and die.

[mike19727]

LOL at MMA only being about takedowns. I aslo remember the time Tyson couldn't KO club fighter Mitch Green in a streetfight, but messed up both his hands instead lol.
