ImA2TimeLoser - Didn't stop anyone from watch pride.

Oh yes I did

Yes it did, Me. I stopped watching after the Big Nog vs Ricco fight. I owned every pride that came out up to that point and just stopped. I know I missed a lot of great fights but I didn't care. Fixed fights, everyone on roids, mismatches and people fighting well out of there weight classes. Wasn't for me.

This is MMA. Not WWE. Nothing about martial artists who dedicate their lives to achieving greatness thru discipline, hard work and sacrifice for no guarantee of fame fortune or glory can remotely be considered, nor should it be confused,as fake.

It's obvious, with that question, you have no idea what the fuck you are talking about. If you did, the mere suggestion that UFC fights are fake, makes you one of the lowest forms of MMA fans....

Have some fights been fixed? Absolutely. Was that at the behest of the UFC? Absolutely positively fuck no. It was a matter of either both fighters, or only one fighter being in on the fix. And at times it was all set up by some shady, outside force that had no business being involved with matters related to MMA. See: PRIDE FC and their Yakuza roots.

I posed a simple question. I don't necessarily believe there has been predetermined fights or works, but what if there was? This was a hypothetical question. Would you stop watching? That's all I asked. Defensive much?
