I watch both from time to time.
Wrestlemani was dissapointing comparing to other years altough Undertaker vs Micheals was probably a top 10-15 ATG match
UFC......Fuck UFC.

Even in the MMA, it's the smaller fighters that are exciting just like boxing... I enjoy watching the smaller guys like Kid Yamamoto, Miguel Torres etc.. the strikers in particular but i can't stand the Jujitsu and the wrestler guys who hump each other on the floor.. IT's not exciting at all..
Boxing will always be superior.

I used to like the UFC, but now I cant stand it. Everyone who walks down the street wearing a tapout shirt thinks they are tough.I remember my brother telling me about this in the WWF.

In order to be a fan of the WWE, you have to either be a kid, a redneck, a fag, or all of the above.
I enjoy UFC/MMA fights when it is a bout between two skilled fighters. Especially if it is two strikers going at it. I hate fights where they just lie on top of each other and do nothing. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate Brazilian jiu-jitsu and the ground game.. just not guys who lie there and do nothing.

WWE can put me to sleep... UFC on the other hand is... all right, but it doesn't really motivate me like boxing :good

K-1 is much more exciting than UFC excluding the heavyweights.. If you look at the smaller guys at K-1, those guys are fuckin crazy..Some of the spin kicks they do are the ones from the movies, straight up.. Serkan Yilmaz aka The Turkish Warrior for example... If anybody is into real martial artists and not some UFC fag who throws those half assed kicks, check out Serkan Yilmaz from K-1... Now that's a real MArtial artists..
Boxing fans would be more suited for K-1 than UFC..

I feel like UFC is a huge fad. With the talent out right now in mixed martial arts, I think its going to hit its plateau and then go down hill.
Too many meatheads, not enough talent worth watching.
I think Anderson Silva is on another level. He's just really respectful as a fighter. I'd pay money to see him. Everyone else..no.

I hate those ball bitin' fights, and the modern WWE is way to much of a soap opera, but I was a huge fan of old school wrestling.
To be the man, you have to beat the man, WHOOOOO

I watched WWE for most of my lif but haven't been paying attention the last year or two, the new generation of guys just haven't caught on with me, and most of the ones I liked have retired/died of overdoses/killed themselves and their families.
UFC I watch occaisonally, it's okay, thye ground based matches bore the shit out of me, but it looks like it's the sport of the future.

Years ago I went to a pro wrestling show with some friends who were into it. Scary stuff. On TV they do a decent job of covering all the angles, but when you watch it live the air punches and fake blows are extremely overtly apparent. Seeing thousands of people all around you wildly cheer and overreact to blatantly phony "fighting" as if it was real is disturbing to say the least. I'm still traumatized.

wrestling is just good for a laugh, I think if you get hooked as a kid you can't help but still watch it if you were flicking and you saw an old favourite. Stone Cold is still a fuckin bad ass. Loved Bret Hart as a child, even with his supergay black and pink sparkly tights.
UFC is pretty good, I think it was more entertaining when MMA was less developed. UFC 1 is class how its like one discipline against another. The sumo vs the savate(i think its savate) is hilarious, he comes palms in, and just gets knocked the fuck out. It was bare knuckles then as well, some twat of an American boxer came out with one glove on thinking he was cool as fuck. I dont care what anyone else says, an accomplished grappler would beat a boxer 9 times out of 10.

WWE was fun to watch when i was younger. There's drama, comedy and action at the same time. Im also a big UFC fan, i enjoy watching the fights whether it's an all out brawl or grappling.

Haven't watched wrestling since late 90s, could care less about it now. I'm just as psyched about Liddell vs. Shogun as I am Hatton vs. Pac. A lot of boxing guys hate on UFC, but there's just as many shit boxing matches with no activity. I think half these boxing guys that hate on the UFC haven't even watched it or Affliction. How's a boxing guy gonna hate on Rampage vs. Wanderlei,or Houston Alexander vs. Jardine, Liddell vs. Couture, Belfort vs. Lindland, too many to list.
On the same note, how's an mma fan gonna hate on Pac vs. JMM, or Barrera vs. Morales, Mosely vs. Margarito?
