Watching an MMA fighter try to grapple, suplex and roll around the floor for a submission in tiny pants makes me think "I could be watching wrestling right now but I'm not 12"
Then I watch Khan dismantle Alexander with amazing hand speed and technique and I think "wow"

With the Tony Jaa reference, that's like me saying "I could be watching a Rocky film right now".
The lack of any decent opponents fighting each other in boxing has completely turned me off of it.
Include the fact that in the past so many years, they've not had the fights UFC has (Bigfoot Vs Hunt, Hendo Vs Shogun, Sanchez Vs Gilbert etc.), MMA has become waaaaaaaaaay out in front for me.
