Wich are the universal MMA rules you guys would like? I personally dont like elbows and dont like soccer kicks. Knees from the north south position are good I think. Any coments?

I think they should have UFCs rules on elbows and Prides rules on kicks and knees to downed opponents. That would pretty much cover it for me I think.

...Prides rules on kicks and knees to downed opponents...

The Althletic Commission would not budge on that one. It was the only way to get UFC sanctioned. No knees or kicks. They thought it would cause too much damage.

Soccer kicks and stomps? You're a savage

I like elbows, but I could do without the soccer kicks and stomps to the head.

i think its a question of mentality... in the us, they made the ufc rules on the ones already made in boxing, considered a "clean", sportsmanship sport. If we follow that idea, soccer kicks and stomps is considered dirty, in the sense that its so brutal and it looks like hitting a downed opponent is not showing sportsmanship.. but in time, if pride keeps their ruling of allowing those, mentality will eventually change.

I havent looked up, but i dont think any1 has even been severely injured by stomps or soccer kick... the most brutal one i remember was wanderlei silva stomping kondo with his hands holding the ropes for more control while stomping, and kondo did not suffer permanent dmg..
On the other hand, if u look at slams, legal in both org, im sure every1 has seen randleman slamming fedor.. first, im not even sure fedor was really ok after the fight.. second, even if he was, its only cuz fedor... is fedor . Any1 taking that slam would of been seriously injured and without exageration, he could of died of that slam(watch his neck getting twisted).

So i dont think stomps and soccer kick are illegal because of its effect on the fighters, but its just a question of image for the sport(and in US, its already hard to have mma fights in any state). In the future, i think the universal rule will have soccer kicks and stomps, 5 mins rounds seems to be the good format, elbows probably will be allowed, and i hope the fights will be in a ring, but with nets below the bottom ropes(like in vale tudo) so u dont need to restart the fighters every 2 mins.

I say allow it all, elbows and soccer kicks with no gloves on. Only have 8 man tournaments to see who is the real deal. :thumbsup:

 

[jaymackz]

^ holy....the canvas would turn blood red straight up. The fighters would slip and break their back from all the blood..j/p but Fedor would come up to the top .

 

[Kameleon]

And it would be in a solid circular ring with no rope or cage. You have to jump over to get in or out, this is to prevent cheating. The crowd would be on a raised platform or something to see inside, like a coliseum type ring.

The only reason elbows are no good because of the cuts...When a fight is stopped because a fighter is bleeding and not hurt at all, it kinda sucks. Can you imagine if KenFlo cut Sherk just a little lower (eye socket or brow)? Sherk woulda lost the fight. It just not a very clear representation of who's better.
On the other hand, stomps and soccer kicks area a representation of domination (IMO). If the downed fighter doesn't wanna get stomped or soccer kicked they can always tap...It's a business of hurting each other, I don't see why you can't kick someone while they can still intelligently defend themself.
Especially the whole rule about the shooter missing and putting a hand on the ground...You should definitely be able to kick him.

Well if the Pride fighters can survive with them I think the UFC fighters can.
