The poor man's Mike Tyson.
The guy is rhoidal and was always well muscled but not even close to a good fighter. Boxing at many levels is a joke. Evander Holyfield still fighting? The heavy weights are so few they are just trying anything now that side show Mike is put up and not in Vegas. This is such a messed up sport.

I'd still rather watch boxing than the UFC. I don't want to watch two dudes on the ground hugging each other.

Hugging...

Those guys are beating the crap out of each other. They are blood (not mud) wrestling, take a look at the mat Pillow. Jeez these guys are killers. I cant watch it long cause it hurts... all parts of my body.

Damn Pillow if one of those guys hugged me I would quickly become blood, torn skin, and cracked bones. Than stuff is flat out vicious. Ultra hard core violence.

I agree with Pillow.....UFC can be cool unless one of the fighters is a ground attack type of fighter...That is as boring as a bad infomerical...now if they are two stand up fighters it can be pretty exciting, but I would still rather see a good boxing match anyday.

Have you seen the submission holds from some of those ground attacks? I almost saw a guy get his arm torn off. Boring...? I dont find hacking people up with sickles boring, but I do find it violent. I cant watch the stuff anymore. Maybe I was just watching the allstar type guys. These guys would just annhilate any boxer under their fighting rules.

And I also prefer boxing. I like Floyd Mayweather cause he hardly ever gets hit... so I guess that about says it all as far as the blood baths from my point of view. Other people find pretty boy boring. I like the highly skilled guys that can punch and not get hit.
