UFC 196 - McGregor vs Diaz - who are you picking

Haha no way! I found Tate vs Holm kind of boring actually. Besides Rousey fights, I have to say I like JJ and Miriam Nakamoto (Muay Thai not MMA). In fact, quite a few of the pure MT women are really great to watch

Might be a difference in preference of what we prefer to watch :wink:

I really can't stand watching MT despite doing it for a year myself!

I agree. I did MT for 9 years and loved it, but can't watch it. I find the fights too rhythmic and repetitive. MMA has a lot of variety and unpredictability.

Which is why cage-fighting is banned in Thailand :wink:

Different strokes indeed. Practicing MT is what makes me love to watch it! Especially women fighters. Lots of technique since they often can't rely on brute force

I think also watching TB just makes me want to get involved and do it again. MMA I know for a fact that I would get taken down and smashed, so I can just appreciate it for what it is without having impulses to get in there...
