Because take downs and "control" score so well, there really isn't a reason to change it up. I think because of people that gameplan so well like Randy and every wrestler coming out of Jackson MMA, there's going to be an equal and opposite reaction from those that specialize in other arts. The only way you nullify these wrestlers is either with superior "reverse wrestling" or a really active guard. Or of course you could just knock them out.
People might think that it's boring, but I think it's just another step in the maturation of MMA as a sport. The constant fight of one discipline/martial art to become better forces other disciplines/martial arts to continue to improve.

Exactly. Frankie Edgar isn't finishing anybody anytime soon. And I'd rather watch Maynard as champ than Edgar, because there's an actual chance Maynard could possibly knock someone out if he threw his fists for 3-5 rounds. Edgar's quick and has great wrestling, but he isn't hurting anyone or finishing anyone and it's fairly boring for me to watch.Originally Posted by MC OTAKU

Frankies not gonna knock out nobody with those pillow fists.... Gray 'The Blanket" Maynard should beat him w/ UD. This is a lw showdown that i def would not pay for. I still think Eddie Alvarez or even Gil Melendez > Frankie if they fought.

Yes, I'm a BJ Penn fan.
Yes, I'm mad.
