Im a fan of MMA. I even used to roll around with a few fighters that ended up fighting for a living. I first learned about MMA from watching the UFC back in the mid 90's (you know back when it was basically anything goes, basically American "Vale Tudo"). Then when I was a teen I discovered K-1 (yea not really MMA, but many MMA fighters came from there). Then in my late teens I encountered Pride FC, and I have to say that to this day Pride FC is my favorite (with K-1 being a closed second). I dont really watch UFC anymore (I cant stand Dana White and to a lesser degree Joe Rogan).
Some of my favorite K-1/MMA fighters growing up were:
Fedor Emelienenko
Bas Rutten
Mirko Filipovic
Mark Hunt
Mauricio Rua
Jerome Le Banner
Peter Aerts
Andy Hug
Wanderlei Silva
Don Frye
Ernesto Hoost
Ken Shamrock
Randy Couture
Remy Bonjasky
Royce Gracie
Mark Coleman
Just to name some of the fighters whos fights that I followed.

The only time that I probably laughed harder during afight, was when I saw "K-1 Dynamite 2005" live, it was Heath Herring vs Yoshirhiro Nakao... Ill tell you after seeing what transpired in that fight (I dont know it we can even call it a "fight"), I couldnt stop laughing like a month. It also didnt help me while at school, because I would burst out laughing at random moments during class, just thinking about that fight. Of course everyone else in the class probably thought that I was crazy, because I appeared to be laughing among myself for no reason.

Yea man it was very violent, especially in Pride. I remember how UFC didnt allow stomps, but Pride allowed stomps and floor kicks. Guys like Wanderlei use the "kick/stomp" at their advantage- he would kick an opponent's head, as if it was the World Cup....

At least most of the wresting we used to watch as kids was fake and scripted...
