I'm all for it...
seems like a bad idea, but kids do dumber shit than that
How does this differ from the Gracie Challenge?
In Gracie Challenge, it's worse. There, it was a trained person going against an untrained person.
Here, at least the people are of equal skill - such as it is - levels.
I've seen the vids atleast they have some set of rules like Strikeforce :)
seems like a bad idea. No properly trained officiating, no medical staff, a bunch of friends standing around yelling ""f$ck him up!"....Once one of them gets really smashed, it will be a big problem.
Dumbbest thing ever...it's all fun and games until someone gets stabbed in the heart. :(
good way to save on training costs
just be sure to watch soime good instructionals
some dumb fucking kicks up in the Carolinas will end up killing each other and ruining it for everyone else
Did it growing up in Hawaii, maybe not the best idea looking back but it builds character. Plus it's better than shooting it out.

??????? Most Gracie Challenge fights were against people very skilled in their own disciplines. And unskilled doesn't = undangerous. Nobody ever died in the Gracie Challenge, which can't be said for streetfighting.
waits for someone to say something stupid so I can clown their ignorance
Yeah I like to fuck around on here and say stupid shit and will also admit to watching this shit when posted.
That said, terrible idea and can you imagine if someone was seriously hurt outside of a trailer park there? Not only are the fighters not really trained, neither is the ref, and there are no doctors.
Sadly, it is likely legal. Yeah they are idiots, but I would feel sorry for someone laying there with a broken neck and rednecks trying to pick him up and tell him to walk it off.
Then again, this site did once endorse felony fights, so I don't know.
Been there, bad idea.
HELWIG - Been there, bad idea.
Please edit to include more 50 cent words and your assertations about how the forcimalatude of society can be negatively affected by this pofronsufous of senseless violence by the creedent perpetuplagoding it in their efforts to forcaswadule it.
Then make a thread about the coolest guys in video games. Thanks.

you know that actually happened right? a high school kid tapped out a guys then his oppenent murdered him by stabbing him , it was like in montana or north dakota..the thread was posted on here a while ago.
That shit reminds me of these 2 ass clowns I used to work with. 1 of em' got a hold of a Wal-Mart glove / mitt combo and they used to "Hit mitts" during our half hr. lunch break. They told everybody at work that they were training for a fight. They had everyone there thinking that they were the 2nd coming of jesus. that used to irritate the shit outta me. And they would smoke after their "Training session". Just like the pro's do.
VERY VERY bad idea.
Horrible idea. Something bad happens then it makes the morning news. Dont need the negative publicity for the sport we all love.
These kids look fine to me, really, there are much less safe things they could be doing.
I bet they get more injuroes if they spend an equal amount of time playing tackle football. Two guys running into each other full force. Not that safe, but accepted.
Who says they have no formal training? They seem to be throing straight, kicks, some ground techniques. Not the best of course but everyone is always learning.
People take more abuse in sparring practices at gyms.
