Anybody can bodybuild at any level and enjoy themselves. They can also decide to go to shows and see other men and woman practice what they do. They can be 17 or 77 and still enjoy.
That MMA shit on the other hand; you can "train" like an MMA bitch all day long wear all the tapout in the world; at the end of the day, getting punched in the face changes everything; most likely your coworkers, wife, boyfriends won't appreciate to look at your smashed mug and converse with your leaky brain...
I've competed in Judo for over 10 years at national level and even did the Pan Am games in 1996. I've fucked up my back good doing so but still enjoyed. Joe Schmoe who orders his "MMA formulas" from his favorite supplement company will not have the same luck.
I still think a "fighter" spartan-like subculture is good for prosperity and morale of a nation. But to compare it with Bodybuilding, Apples and Oranges my friends.
Enjoy being strong and looking good.

I wish I was born a long time ago sometimes just because I would have loved to watch the gladiators fight to death in the colosseum and shit.
Fuck me that would have been awesome

Swede, would you practice "MMA" and get your pretty smashed as a "hobby"?

your legs got fucked up? are you in a wheelchair now? cause if you aren't they probably arent that fucked up and your rationalizing quitting something. just admit you weren't very good or interested and didn't pursue it, don't blame it on your 'legs'. If you wanted it bad enough, you'd be fighting MMA in a wheelchair.

Training MMA isn't for everyone. Certainly not for me. But as a spectator sport, it is one of the most exciting. In any combat sport, injuries abound. My 41 year old knees are comparable to some 65-70 year olds, according to my doctor. I can't shoot with any authority, and normally pull guard in tournaments. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean you can't appreciate it. I still compete 2-3 times a year in BJJ. May not be able to be a world beater, but it is therapeutic for me. I love the competition, comradery.

Bodybuilders, some look good, in the photos . The rest look like 9 months pregnant.
Female bodybuilders, are you sure you want to talk about that?
Strong, but a 170 pound MMA fighter can submit you.

bodybuilders can look good - depends on how they train and what their diet is like. They can get all the benefits of looking much better than average population.
MMA fighters - well, if you're not in top20 most popular fighters in the world, no one's going to be able to tell you're a MMA fighter. You'll basically have to wear Afflication or Tapout shirts but the bad news is, everyone wears them these days. So, the only way to build any credibility is to tell people around you you can beat much bigger guys than you are. Big fucking deal. We don't live middle ages anymore. Go fight a random person on the street and you'll find yourself in jail

It would be a nice scene, in front of the judge.
300 pound guy with a black eye, missing 3 teeth full of juice " will no pass blood or urine test":
Your Honour, he beat me snif snif snif :'( :'( :'(.
170 MMA guy no juice," will pass on blood or urine test:
It was self-defense, your Honour.

For every stupid meathead who walks around with an ILS or who is genuinely built but is acting like a douche showing it off (like wearing short sleeve shirts and spandex shorts in winter), you can find just as many (if not more) morons who wear Tap Out and act all tough, pretending to be MMA or UFC fighters when all they have under their belt is a few sparring sessions in the gym.
There are wannabes in every sport and subculture who always compensate for their lack of achievement / talent in that field by theatrics such as ILS or Tap Out wear or whatever. So it doesn't make sense when guys like MindSpin try and single out bodybuilding as a loser's hobby because of them, while pretending like it's equivalent in MMA doesn't exist.
Any man who tries to assert that he's an alpha male based on his perceived ability to "kick someone's ass" is a much bigger idiot than some dumb meathead who is merely making an ass of himself by trying to flaunt his muscles via ILS or whatever.

Unfortunately, it's scenes like this most MMA guys must fantasize about - in the meanwhile, bodybuilders are pussy pulling machines while many MMA guys have disgusting cauliflower ears and beat up face. Physically many look average, so they have to wear "scary" looking MMA shirts with skulls on them.
Just wanted to add a note - I'm a MMA fan and love watching it. There's just too many amateur MMA douchebags that go around bragging how they could beat people. Seriously.. so fucking what? Good fighting ability was useful around stone age. It's looks and brain that makes a difference in today's society.

I prefer "submitting" women a lot more than men, so i train to look good :D
you guys have fun "side mounting" each other while I mount your girl ;)

First time they ever had ass...and it's paid for....But of course just because people are pictured together, doesn't mean they, have, will, or are sleeping together, especially some drunk gals ;D

Bodybuilders are more like "pussies wrecked clunks" ;D
Pregnant, bald,acne and sweating like a pig. should I continue?
That really makes a difference in today's society.
Have a nice day :-*

I believe this argument is for the regular guy and which endeavor they choose to participate in. I don't think Big Alex was talking about pros in either "sport". A guy can "bodybuild" and still be in great cardiovascular condition. However once you get to be the size of a pro obviously no woman is going to take you too serious unless they have some type of a fetish.

On the contrary, most of the pro fighters from our academy and association aren't the alpha male, gotta "kick someone's ass" type you assert. Most of them are extremely calm, normal looking folks who don't go looking for attention. Yes, most of them work full time jobs, hoping to get recongnized by a Strikeforce, or UFC, but in the meantime, go about their business and don't need to wear tapout shirts.
The folks who do that are usually the casual fan who have tried to train, or have trained very little and have the need to act up. We keep our own in check, because if a fighter from our academy gets negative press, it puts a bad light on the management of the team and leaves little negotiating room for fighters in the future limiting opportunity and pay. We have to constantly regulate noobs who come into the gym and want to impose their wills on smaller practitioners. Most good camps will not tolerate an idiot who puts a bad light on a camp. There is a reason Xtreme Couture, ATT, AKA, Jackson's, Militech produce who they produce. Ego's must be checked at the door, and rigorous daily practices ensure that everyone assimilates. Please, no generalisations over fighters. It is just as bad as making the ILS generalisation over the bloated bellys, G4Pay, etc...

That's exactly my point. You've got people in both fields who don't feel the need to rub it into people that they are bodybuilders or MMA fighters. Look at the top guys in bodybuilding (other than a few dickheads with the meathead mentality) - they never make a big deal of their physique in public or try and flaunt it every chance they get. Same thing with MMA guys - a lot of them don't show off, but there is a percentage of wannabes who try and act tough by talking about kicking ass or whatever. I'll grant you that it's not the majority who do it, but only a small percentage of the entire sub-group.
There is this other thread in which some people talk about the wannabe bodybuilders and make it seem like they represent the entire faction of people who bodybuild, which is far from true. Which is why I was pointing out that MMA is no different. And it's not just bodybuilding and MMA alone - you have the "wannabes making noise and trying to get attention" phenomenon in just about every sport or activity.

The cigarette smoking, tough talking folks are simply spectators and not folks who train. The difference is there is no physical evidence of someone training MMA, or combat sports. Whereas with bodybuilding, there is. I don't go to the local globo gym simply because of all the BBs who monopolize the equipment, who drop their pants in the middle of the gym to look at their legs and draw attention. I almost witnessed a fight between a group of powerlifters and BB's over a similar stunt. I was eagerly awaiting on the side to see what would occur, and nothing.

another mma fan that can't help but mention rape. I think alot of mma fans have been ignored by women throughout their lives. They are angry towards women. And bodybuilders make them feel insecure and/or weak.

The dipshits who walk around acting like they can kick someones ass are exactly the same guys who are juiced to the gills thinking they can push people around because they are on Tren/ Test. People who feel the need to overcompensate are almost always the same guys who cant fight for their lives or are inflated baloons of sustanon that will deflate the second they come off.
A lot of these guys are exactly the same- If you have to broadcast how tough or strong you are, 99 times out of 100 your a joke. I dont think its just for MMA wannabees or bodybuilding wannabees--- its just for wannabees in general.
