    I'm actually just catching up on the first episode of it now.

    Some of my siblings are mad into UFC. They even went to a book signing of Randy Couture's a while back. The only UFC lad I'd know is Brock Lesnar cos I used to watch WWE years ago when he was in it.
    Poor aul Brock's had to retire for health reasons. Came back after a major operation to try one last time and got soundly beaten, so called it a day and retired.

    It's grown men fighting and throwing punches and kicks and rolling around on the ground like kids in a ball pit, but well with out the balls.

    It has a huge following and massive sponsorship in the usa. :D

    Might I add it is also painful when you find out you are sparring a trainee of it.

    My younger brother and older brother have even gone as far as to get a UFC game for the xbox and some intense rivalry goes on when they're playing it. I know WWE is theatrical at best but UFC is a bit hardcore at times. Poor Brock. Didn't know that happened. Fair play to him for going back for one last hurrah.

    I cannot stand watching those fights, I'm far too delicate! Makes me cringe.

    There's a cage fighting story line in Home and Away now and I look away :pac:

    Gonna watch one my fave films, Spirited Away :) I have a big bag of sweets too from my trip to the magical candy shop earlier :D

    WWE is scripted and theatrical as you say, UFC is 100% real :) It started off as people from different backgrounds fighting, so you might have had a Karate guy fighting a Wrestler and then the Gracie's came along from Brazil and showed the world Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and changed MMA forever :) Fighters now train a mix of BJJ, Wrestling, Boxing and Muai Thai (kick boxing from Thailand) for a much more rounded approach to their fights.

    The UFC game's aren't bad actually (same with the WWE games actually, they're quite similar)

    Yea, I went to a training session with a friend of mine who has a few pro fights under his belt in Thailand and I was horrified at the power behind a full on Muai Thai kick - the kick-bag folded in half with the force Dave hit it!

    I was the first girl in my family after quite a few boys and my brothers were mad into the WWF as it was called then. My first initiation into wrestling was Andre the giant versus Hulk Hogan in a steel cage. I cowered for most of it but as I got older I used to stay up and watch the main events and tape them on the vcr. I'd often stay awake til 4 in the morning doing that. I watched the one where Owen Hart was killed and all.

    Definitely. There would be some hard times ahead if you didn't :)
