It seems the UFC has changed over the years. More and more fights are two guys striking, often throwing wild punches until one connects (often sloppy street fight resemblance). Or, they use the cage (which imo should be done away with as it gives a person an advantage) and throw the guy to the ground and pound away. Obviously there are submissions but they seem less frequent.
Also, as great as BJJ is, I find the Gracie JJ arrogance annoying. They seem to come across as if itās the only art that works which is clearly not true.
It almost appears that athleticism is overriding the fine techniques.
Maybe athleticism overrides fine techniques. And it is us who has the wrong focus on martial arts.
Cardio and sloppy punches is the real deadly.
