Default Re: Mayweather calls out UFC and MMA as a whole...

The ground game is getting a bit boring lately because there's been too many guys not staying active on the ground anymore. Even standup, there seems to be a lot more cautious fighters these days. I'm betting the UFC is going to start tinkering with the rules/enforcement a bit to push the action more (stand guys up quicker, deduct points for inaction, etc). I think the ground game is even more exciting than the standup game when done right. Battles between submission fighters can be exhibitions of amazing technical skills.

With the acquisition of Pride they might adopt some of the rules there. Yellow cards for stalling and maybe add knees and kicks to a downed opponent.

I'm with you on the ground game. I find it much more exciting than standup, especially when two very good BJJ guys go at it. If I wanted to watch two guys stand up and not even try for a takedown I'd watch boxing.
