This is not Ultimate Wrestling Championship....yes we understand wrestling is a part of MMA but it's so overrated....and soon as a judge sees takedowns it's basically an automatic win....mighty mouse pushed the pace of that fight, landed numerous shots, defended and got up almost every time, countered well....but soon as you get taken down, and your fight goes to decision YOU LOSE...shits weak...if you cant stop a wrestler....then you've already lost
Refs need to be more strict about stale ground work, and judges need to change their scoring, UFC is slowly being taken over by wrestle fuckers....
Hate me if you want, but demetrious was a beast in that fight, and it sucks to be wrestle fucked to a loss....
Well, on he one hand, MM did the same thing against Torres that Cruz is being accused of against him.
MickColins - Well, on he one hand, MM did the same thing against Torres that Cruz is being accused of against him.
Yeah true, I was more using that fight as an example, I just hate how wrestling easily over powers almost every other martial art and judges scorecards...
That was a battle. These threads are brutal. You don't like suplex's? Sub attempts? Maybe you just don't like MMA. That was a great night of fights from start to finish. Fucking crybabies ought to train for 1 day and see how it feels. Everybody laid it on the line tonight and they deserve respect. Period (get off yours).
Ilovejesus - This is MMA get the fuck over it you crybaby if you do t like it change the channel.
Dude see where I'm coming from, jon jones an Cain Velasquez use their wrestling effectively they teansition and keep the fight going, they don't just lay there and hold their opponent down to victory they are both great wrestlers, but they understand the full aspect of MMA and respect that it's MIXED MARTIAL ARTS...cause usually when you have a fighter who's only great in one aspect he loses... Except wrestling, its too overpowered, like I said hate me if you want, it needs more balancing on judges scorecards
Im curious. How does constantly trying to advance position and working for submissions = wrestlefucking? Can you please enlighten me?
Wrestling is a part of Mixed Martial Arts, Cruz used it to his advantage.
It is no different than someone using their Boxing or BJJ to their advantage.
Why in the hell should someone like Cruz not use his wrestling skills to win? Where in the rules does it state that you have to be a crowd pleaser?
It is easy to see the difference from those who actually understand MMA as opposed to those who just want to see constant brain damage and limb snapping to be dished out.

Karma's a bitch.

To simply put it, the people on this site are getting fucking ridiculous. Thats all that needs to be said.
I think some people, including the OP, really dont know what "wrestle-fucking" or "lay n pray" really is.
They see more than one takedown, disregard any and all submission attempts or in this case suplexes as well and just throw an mma buzzword with negative connotation on there.
Ultimate Wrestling Championship. The sport will soon be called mixed wrestle boxing
Whah!!!!!! whah!!!!!!
I've been taken down and I can't get up.
They should give em life alert buttons

He did not get wrestle fucked you tool he constantly tried to advance position and went for submission. Not to mention the take down started coming easier and easier
Idiot

^ This
The worst example of a guy with an undeserved 'lay & pray' reputation is Sean Sherk. That dude is whirling dervish on the ground, and NEVER lays in guard, yet the morons on internet message boards always whine about him laying & praying. It doesn't matter how active he is on the ground, they always cry 'lay & pray' as soon as the fight hits the mat.
"I should just turn off MMA and go rent the best of Toughman instead. I wish these guys would do some real 'rasslin like HHH and the Undertaker"

Thats right, let's not pretend that if MM had the better wrestling he wouldnt have been doing the same thing. MIXED MARTIAL ARTS Folks.
