MMA journey man that you've never heard off

In the modern days of MMA, where everything is calculated, it seems like the MMA scene is getting closer and closer to being an actual sport. 

Now you have sponsors, PPV cuts, fighters cutting obscene amounts of weight in order to gain the 'edge' in an attempt to compete with smaller men. 


So you get people that weigh around 190-200 and are fighting anywhere between 155 and 185. 

Basically almost any fighter from LW - MW - weighs around 190-200 pounds... 

They be walking around heavier than the MW limit and quite a few fighters choose to fight 3 or 4 weightclasses below their natural weight

Great, well rounded fighters that fight 2-3 times a year in an attempt to make as much money as they can.. Regardless of the way that they obtained their victory.... Humping, stalling and running away are considered great attributes these days...



Drifting apart from the gladiator persona.. Acting more like spoilt rich - boi - wrestlers.



How about these dudes down there....? ??
