I certainly do NOT want to see heel hooks removed. I would like to see elbows removed or the rules adjusted only to stop fights from ending prematurely due to a cut.
I certainly would not deny that Mayweather is one of the best(quite possibly the best) boxers in the world. However, it does not excuse his behavior. Why is "talking trash" something that is acceptable? Many athletes who are at the elite level do not stoop to such low levels as Mayweather...
Mayweather is an incredible boxer but seems to be worthless as an individual. For that reason alone, I would like to see De La Hoya win.
I keep wondering if Mayweather's antics are driving DeLaHoya in the same manner that Mayorga's antics drove DeLaHoya.

I have not seen this fight but in the past Machida was very smooth. His style is unique in that he seems able to score many shots without taking many in return. He definitely needs to start finishing fights.
Bisping - The biggest thing that I noticed was his hand speed while int he guard. Typically, punches are not thrown with such speed so often when in the guard.
Arlovski vs Werdum - Disappointed in Werdum's takedown attempts and lack of trying more. I found the numerous openhand lefts that he...
I do like the addition of the knees as it is a good counter to a wrestler. However, I would like to see elbows taken out, especially on the ground but this is not going to happen.
I think the wave of upsets is good and bad. It is good b/c it shows that anyone has a chance to win especially new fighters who have been training specifically for mma. It also makes it good for the viewer b/c this means many more competitive fights. However, I think it will be bad for the...
