Bringing back tournament style and a new fighting surface to boot....can't loose. The fans can't get enough of this, finally some much needed competition for the UFC.

Maybe that's what this is. It's a live action Pit Fighter Game.

Unless they are only expecting to grab the lunatic, hardcore violence fans. But is this is going live in Atlantic City casino, it has to be legit.

The 3rd Generation is great under some other set of rules? The Miami Dolphins would be in the Super Bowl right now...you know...under a different set of rules. MMA is a sport - it's not combat. And it's awesome to watch - as much as I loved the UFC in 93, I enjoy it a lot more now. We have better athletes, more diverse skillsets, and you can even convince women to watch it with you now! I spent many years an an infantryman in a variety of units and we were great under "different rules" too. Bad guy gets the mount on you - you're buddy shoots him. Maybe we should incorporate that into MMA too - that way it's more "realistic"...oh wait...that would suck ass. New rules are awesome. And I'm not dissing BJJ at all. It is awesome - I train at a fairly high level several times a week and from a pure enjoyment standpoint, if I had to isolate aspects of MMA out, I prefer it to Boxing, Kickboxing, etc. But come on man! Mad props to the Gracies for creating the sport as we know it and for bringing BJJ to forefront. I hope Team Gracie 3.0 comes into the UFC and kicks ass. This is the funniest discourse yet!
