I love it. Killa seems to have the problem with it. But what proof is it that Pride is corrupt? I heared K-1 is but havent seen anything about pride besides that fact they harbor Roid abusers.

but ya thats where I Stand on prizefighting, im a fan im not involved in the business so I dont care which is better then which cuz I watch the sport I dont make money off of it
where I stand today Boxing is my favorite combat sport by a lot, but if I were fighting it would be in MMA.

if im a fighter
Boxing scares me more, as obsurd as that sounds with MMA being mixed.. Boxing scares me more cuz ur always facing a professional in that ring, and Boxing is a perfectionist sport.. you cant afford to make mistakes cuz u can get hurt bad if you do, and your getting hit a lot more in boxing then you are in MMA.. against guys that are always gonna be very strong too
in the UFC You can face a guy like Kenflo and leave without a scratch, Kenflo doesnt scare me at all to be honest, im not saying I can beat him.. but im sayin I wouldnt be scared for one second fighting him
I wouldnt be scared fighting a guy like Babalu either, or even a guy like Forrest Griffin
put me in the ring with Winky or Jermain Taylor i'd be frightened.
Pride scares me as much as Boxing does though, cuz they hit a lot harder over there and your always gonna see a very good fighter.. theres no hiding from kicks, and they focus a lot on the technical part of MMA in Pride.. UFC not so much I See a lot of guys that are extremely sloppy.
