Poker and curling also claim to be sports...

I like the fights when they mix it up properly.
Watching them wrestling for full 3 rounds is as boring as watching them punch each other for full 3 rounds.
I can appreciate a technical ground game if it doesn't involve just being on top of the other guy and not move the rest of the time.
Same way I can appreciate dirty boxing in the cage side if it involves work and movement.

Some fights just have too many breaks in them and nothing - literally - happens. Those are boring.

Yup, I too enjoy balanced fights the most. Some fighters do have fairly interesting ground games, but majority don't. But there's tons of fighters who have boring as fuck stand up style as well.

Probably the reason I really like watching Frank Mir.
He's awesome and technical on the ground for such a huge guy. He still stands and trades punches too tho.
Same for George St-Pierre. I like his versatility. A beast on the ground and yet he improved a lot over the last years in standing up.

Though I rarely have a favourite. Most of the time I rule for the guy that puts up the better fight which doesn't necessarily mean that he wins in the end
With those thin gloves, it's surprising that there are not even more knock outs tbh.

Considering you just described Berenger's sex life in a nutshell are you really that surprised?

I last for 60 minutes bitch.
