The cage is great for UFC wrestling matches but if you want to see the best striking and stand-up fighting, the ring is far superior to the cage. The only question is will they allow soccer kicks? For godsakes let's hope so. Also, if Randy can get out of his contract and fight Fedor in this organization, he'll set the precedent for many other top UFC fighters who've rightfully complained about the lack of pay compared to other organizations to do the same. FUCK DANA WHITE! Anyone who disses the Natural, Fedor, and Babalu in a matter of months is a fuckin' idiot! Agreed!

Dont get me wrong the other fighters are very elite...but without the big dog in his yard M-1 is set to run with their soon to be newest fighter fedor. PS. Fedor doesnt live in outer space he knows Couture wants to fight him, both of them should find a way to fight! ASAP!!!

And dizzle, my experience in streetfights/club bouncing situations is that there's almost always at least one wall, curb, bar or other hard surface around and using it or avoiding it is an art. Generally you are not fighting with a ring around you either. Of course in MMA matches you don't have to worry about the other guys girlfriend jumping on your back most of the time either. I also prefer cage fights to rings because I find that fighters use the ropes to escape and get the action stopped or entangle their opponents, and overall they detract from the flow of the fight.

The ring is unattractive. The cage opens people’s eyes. The ring looks amateur, the cage looks pro. M-1 will not go anywhere." I wouldn't exactly say this is a mistake. I personally think that cage fight should strictly be used in UFC. I like the Ring because if you've ever been in a real fight...ur not fighting with fences all around u...it's more likely that u would fight with nothing there to help u get leverage like a cage can do. just my personal feelings. “First mistake by M-1 right there.

I think that alone might cause a lot of fans to lose interest. I highly prefer the cage. It’s very disappointing that it’s in a ring and not a cage.
