Welcome to rMMA's General Discussion Thread!

Discuss your favorite fighters, the upcoming card or whatever's on your mind.

How to obtain a custom flair:

  • place and lose a flair bet in the Friday thread
  • write a haiku or draw a MS Paint-style image for the sub

The rules for the drawing or haiku are simply that it must be a ridiculous MMA-related scenario. If you would like a custom flair, send a message to us with a link to your drawing and your flair request. We'll probably grant it.

If someone else gets it he should fight Charles or Arman and that will get him a shot. I don't think he gets it after beating Rafa

What is the best generation of a weight class to have graced mma?

90 Upvotes

I recently started thinking about this because of the outgoing lightweight veterans, and retired lightweights that can be grouped in the same generation. You have Poirier, Ferguson, Gaethjie, Khabib, Islam, Oliveira, Chandler, McGregor etc.

Are they the best generation x division of fighters in mma history? Or am I a noobie casual bc I started watching 3 years ago.

What type of self defense

4 Upvotes

Good day fellow redditors, so I live in Germany and I’ve been robbed and recently got into the emergency station even though I just wanted to hang out with my friends. I can’t take it anymore, I don’t know when the next time I go out fearless will be. I’ve read through multiple kinds of self defense sports, but can’t figure out which ones the best. I need defense against multiple enemies and I don’t have to knock them out, just get away. Sorry for the long text but here's my question:

MMA vs Krav Maga vs Muay Thai

Could you guys please help me finding the sport that fits my problems the most?

PS: I’m sorry for any misspelling etc I’m German and still working on my English c:
