I don’t follow it closely enough to know either (I used to back in the day of GSP etc).

[[ (I used to back in the day of GSP etc).]]

I followed fr9m before gsp, back in the days of the pride league where no holds were barred. Followed for a bit after the gsp reign, but fights began to be more wrestling than stand up fights.

I can appreciate the skill of the wrestlers, but it makes for boring fights in my opinion, so I kinda phased out of mma- every now and again I’ll watch, hoping for a good fight, but inevitably the fights go to the ground th3se days mostly.

Also, the inclusion of women’s fights just kinda ruined the sport for me. I don’t mind that they wanna fight, (they are tough FOR WOMEN, but still nowhere near the toughness of men really- and in my opinion don’t belong in same league. but I think they should,have their own venue instead of being featured in men’s league- imcant stand the commentators acting like the women are the most brutal thing to walk the earth- their comments during female bouts are just rediculous- its like car enthusiasts trying. To hype a vw during a Lamborghini show. They hype is over-the-top rediculous.
