Message: [QUOTE="FruDaddy, post: 1199103, member: 63076"] I used to watch it, back in the Royce Gracie/Ken Shamrock/Dan Severen days. There was a "David and Goliath" event that looked a little iffy (fixed) to me. Not long after that, they went to the new format with separate rounds and now they bring the fighters up to their feet if they don't look like they are doing anything. The current rules have taken a little of the "real" out of it, but I do sometimes watch a fight or two. I remember once watching Gracie on his back, with the oponnent on top of him, for about 10 minutes. It looked like Gracie was being beaten until the other guy started tapping. [/QUOTE]
