Thats how I look at it too Floof, I was a huge boxing fan for 25 years but bad decisions, lazy fighters and poor matchmaking/politics killed it for me. I watched MMA when it first came out to the public but it suffered from poor matchups as well- a Jujitsu expert would take the striker to the ground and then it was 10 minutes of 2 snakes rolling around because the striker didn't know what to do. Chico and Lance sold me on giving it another try and I am loving it- I bought all the old Pride fights on dvd and some of the UFC. Out of so many events i can't remember too many bad matchups nor any lazy fighters. You fight with no energy in MMA you are in very big trouble- there are no clutch and grab fests like boxing is so full of.
