Do people watch UFC cause they like watch other people get beat up?

good point, and yes...theres nothing like the excitement of what you dont want to have to deal with yourself...just like car accidents

NO...lol, it's because people appreciate the capability that these guys have to put a whippin' on someone and take a beating as well...and a lot of them work REALLY hard to get where they are...lots of training. I know a guy that fights...just don't understand why they do it except to prove to themselves that they can, but hell...I'll watch :)

I like NINJA WARROR on g4 ...You don't hurt anyone and you still show how bad you really are.

Do you seriously have to ask that question??

From the beginning of time "man" has been intrigued with violence and has always viewed forms of it as a "spectator" sport.

I'm not taking a side either way here...just pointing out a simple fact of life. Just think throughout history what man has done like this for "sport"..and that answer should be crystal

its a sport, real tech, and u must be very well rounded. its gonna take over boxing

I watch it cause to be honest. Its my religion, and im very devoted.

thanks i understand now what you mean sumthingdifferent

Pure straight up competition,two guys 1on 1 to see whose better

Men ... all violence.

:p

I'd much rather watch boxing. I've had discussions with a friend of mine who's really into MMA and I stil don't get it and I still wouldn't let my child watch it.

For me, it's like playing chess. The opponents always have to be 4-5 moves ahead of each other. It's exciting. I know, I'm a nerd but whatever!

thats the best thing i could compare it to also, it is like a more violent game of chess lol.

violent and exilirating all at the same time...such a rush...but imagine being in the octagon...that would be an even better rush, don't u think?

UFC sucks now,they tamed it down way too much.when i first started watching it,it was a blood sport but now it's not much different than the WWE

K please stop reading troll posts on sherdog.
Just watch it so you can make your own decision. WWE????????? come on hahaha thats silly. UFC used to be ruleless and it didn't have the level of skill it has today. Royce used to dominate with BJJ alone, because no one else knew what the hell he was up to. Now the game has evolved and its hard for a fighter to be one dimensional and completely dominate in the cage. The matches are amazing, and the rules make it safer for the fighters. Nothing wrong with WWE its just simply a different form of entertainment. UFC is a competitive sport however and should not be compared.

dude i don't like the WWE either,i was just saying last time i watched it,i didn't see any blood like i used to.first time i watched UFC,i seen a guy bear hug a guy and then i see the guy's head fly back and blood came out of his nose,my first thought was "that was awesome!!!"and that got me hooked until recently i started watching it again and i thought "what the hell happened to this sport???".what next?are they going to make everyone wear helmets?

Oh hahaha, well im personally not the hugest blood fan. But sometimes a bloody fight can be exciting. No the sport is still the same, just more well rounded fighters. There is a finale on tonight free on spiketv, if you got time I would watch it. Should be good.
