Here in America we have few rules to protect the fighter but that knee to the head allowed in One is sick af.. Reminds me of the good ol PRIDE days.. If you aren't a casual you'll know exactly wtf I'm talking about

Yeah knees to the head are OK but not on a downed opponent. I loved and still love PRIDE. IMO it was the heyday of MMA. I have seen a bunch of Bellator and 1 LFA event in person. They are fun but honestly it is better to watch on TV.

DW, me too. I was house sitting for a friend back in the day and he had a spoofed cable box. I was looking for the playboy channel and stumbled on UFC 2-3 I cannot remember. I was hooked. It got me to stop body building and go to training BJJ and Muay Thai almost exclusively. I still hit the gym 2-3 times a week to work with weights but it is all geared towards making me a better fighter. (Although i am no fighter and I am too old to be competitive. but i still love training and mild to medium sparring)
