Kylläpä on taas ollut antoisaa lukea asiallista ja eritoten asiantuntevaa keskustelua --> suomeksi: uskomatonta paskaa. Ilmeisesti tämä on sitten yksi niistä lieveilmiöistä joka tulee lajin suosion mukana, halusi sitä tai ei. Täällä(kin) vaikuttaa monelle vapaaottelu olevan synonyymi ufc:lle ja kaikkea mitä Dana tai Danan perskärpäset sanoo, pidetään absoluuttisena totuutena.
Mun kantahan tuohon parhaaseen p4p-ottelijaan selviää nimimerkistä, joka oli selvää heti silloin kun näin Fedor-Herring matsin vuonna 2002.
Tässä videossa on vielä muutama muukin samaa mieltä ja veikkaan, että herroilla on jonkun verran tietämystä ja kokemusta vapaaottelusta.

Ja sitten vielä jokunen muu, osaksi samoja kuin videossa. Osa saattaa olla tietysti ufc-fanclubin edustajille tumtemattomia, mutta kai te nyt sentään Chuck Norrisin tiedätte?
