Talking MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) - any1 into tht?, Posted December 7th, 2006, 04:59 PM #1 (permalink) |
who here is into MMA as in Mixed Martial Arts? its cult following of sorts among fight enthusiasts is now a lot more than tht; MMA now is the fastest growing sport i the world; MMA promotions like PRIDE FC and UFC have made this sometimes very brutal sport quite popular among the masses

so ppl discuss ur favourite fighters, whether and/or how u train in any specific style (martial art) or MMA which is itself considered a seperate discipline, whether and/or how ur into stand up fighting or ur a fan of grappling, anything to do with this great combat sport ppl feel free to discuss

if any1 here is a practicioner of muay thai plz discuss it; as far as i know there isnt 1 school in bangladesh

so yeah ppl, discuss MMA as u c fit

MMA like i said is the combination of all the known martial arts and wht works in them

links to learn more about MMA :
  • sherdog.net
  • nokaout.com
  • pridefc.com
  • UFC.com
and oh if ur from bangladesh, u can catch Pride FC archives at 10 30 pm (usually if nothing else is on)

yes there are 'rankings' so as to speak, top fighters in the MMA circuit now are as follows:
  • Feidor Emelianenko
    • fights out of russia (prev. association Russian Top Team, now Red Devil Fight Club)
    • Pride FC Undefeated Heavyweight Champion
    • background in Judo, and Sambo (russian grappling style) with more emphasis on leg locks than BJJ
  • Mirko Crocop (my fav fighter)
    • fighs out of croatia (Crocop Squad Gym)
    • Pride FC 2006 OPGW champion
    • background - kickboxing
    • a former K1 (kickboxing0 grand prix winner, he is famed for his left high roundhouse (kick)
    • famous quote about Crocop: right kick hospital, left lick cemetery
  • Wandarlei Silva ('the axe murderer')
    • fights out of brazil (Chute Boxe)
    • Pride FC Middleweight champion
    • background Muay Thai, Brazilian Jui-jitsu (BJJ)
    • a feared striker he is known for his aggressiveness in the ring
there are more to MMA than the violence, its a skill and it takes time and effort on 1's part to make it to any professional MMA promotion like PRIDE or UFC , but its a hell of a lot of fun, trust me, evn when ur at the wrong end of a guillotine choke, lol

thanku all for the enthusiasm uve shown
