Posted: 2/26/2008 6:38:22 AM | | I like watching it. It doesn't matter if the guy I'm interested in likes it. I do. I like Randy Couture, Anderson Silva, Kaleb Starnes and quite a few others. But I've always liked "rougher sports" like that. | |

Posted: 2/26/2008 8:58:02 AM | woman and ufc huh? me personally love ufc. i love anything that has to do with fighting almost. the sport is unique in its own little way. do you people really realize the disapline you need to be in such a sport? wow i enjoy it alot. i dont see it as guys beating each other up i see as guys doing what they love. if you notice most of them have a passion for it. its better than having them on the streets! lol but you cant say all gurls just put ufc on their profile and not mean it. i love sports and i enjoy watching and playing them there are some truthful females out there. dont be so judgemental.   | |

Posted: 2/27/2008 10:42:39 PM | | I wouldn't pretend to like it, don't think I could, for any guy. If my guy wanted to go see it, fine, but it's one interest we would not share. | |

Posted: 2/27/2008 11:55:47 PM | In my first post EVER on the Ask a girl forum I would lay money down on the idea that there isn't a single women who likes UFC who wasn't sucked into it by some guy.....just like the women who say " I love to watch NASCAR, football etc."
How many guys do you see with their profile that says "I like cooking, reading to the kids, and making a house a home"? Its a symbol of the male dominated world we live in and women who get sucked into it...... | |

Posted: 2/28/2008 12:14:56 AM | ^^^^ Wrong!
I LOVE UFC and all MMA. I got my boyfriend hooked on it! 
Although he still doesn't like it as much as I do. I could watch the same fights over and he would prefer not to. | |

Posted: 2/28/2008 11:14:04 PM | So how did you get into it...ummm I like cats? Did you just see it one day and go "wow I really like that"? Were you raised watching violent sports?
I guess I shouldn't have said a single woman....I should know there will always be the deviant in any population....not that I'm talking about you as a deviant cats.... | |

Posted: 2/29/2008 12:29:27 AM | Nope not me...although I have had guys ask me if I do like watching it...lol...nope, sorry. This is the same with hockey...people will say they enjoy it and this goes for both men and women...and spend most of the time talking  | |

...yep...
but then I come by that honestly, learned at my mother's knee, as she was a fan of heavy weight boxing.
I even order the $40 PPV events when I'm home alone...Hope you don't think that makes me a 'deviant' either... | |

Posted: 2/29/2008 10:09:27 AM | Hey, nothing wrong with being a deviant, unless it hurts someone else.
I couldn't agree more mysteriouse. Might as well just give them short swords and inbetween matches feed a few folks to the lions.... | |

Posted: 2/29/2008 11:35:15 AM | Maybe I'm a little weird, but I will never in my life understand the fascination with watching two people beat the sh*t out of eachother. So to answer your question, while some women are into that sort of thing, I'm far, far, far from it. I also usually skip over guys who list "UFC" as an interest/hobby. I wouldn't be able to tolerate it, I just know. I think it's one of the stupidest things on the planet. But meh, different strokes, I guess.

Posted: 3/18/2008 8:31:55 PM | I watch UFC, always have. Did I grow up watching violence, sure.
Do I do everything a guy tells me to. Are you kidding?
Call it a sport or argue that it is not. Whatever. Those fighter have discipline, courage, agility and instinct to survive. They know the risk they take everytime they step in the ring. Hockey players know the risks when they step on the ice. What is the difference?
Well, besides the obvious about the gear and skates.
UFC fighters take pride in their strengths, they improve their weaknesses and they love what they do. What's not to love? | |

Posted: 3/19/2008 7:12:56 AM | | I like watching it, not high on the priority list and I wouldn't want to watch it every week. | |

Posted: 3/19/2008 11:16:06 AM | | Nope, definitely not something that's just done to impress a guy, it's what I actually enjoy watching. But that can be said about a lot of things for a lot of girls, football, hockey, etc. Not every girl is a poser. | |

Posted: 3/21/2008 3:41:20 PM | I was quite a tomboy as a child and my older brother helped a lot in raising me. So I guess I ended up loving video games and watching boxing and UFC and Pride because of him. Its just stuck with me through the years.
I like UFC. I don't go out of my way to watch it unless there is a big event, but when i am bored sometimes i will youtube some. I live on campus at school so its hard to catch it on sometimes but i think they show it on Spike or G4. | |

Posted: 3/23/2008 10:09:31 PM | I'm one of the girls that actually likes to watch UFC fights and boxing matches. I used to box, so my interest has nothing to do with whether it attracts men or not.
Come on now, any girl silly enough to chat with other girls or talk on their cell phone instead of watching sexy, sweaty rock hard bodies crawl all over each other and duke it out is crazy!!! ;) | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 2:54:58 PM | yea most girls ive seen dont know anything about ufc or mma in general. i got my ex into it, she took to it right away. we broke up a while ago, but still talk. she still watches mma and we discuss fights a lot.
shes the ONLY girl i know that is actually into it and can appreciate the technique. most girls do this when they watch the fights: "oh hes cute, oh i like his tan, oh his hair looks stupid, oh look at those abs, oh he needs to shave his chest" retarded ass comments lol.
i love how the lady brought up american gladiators. lol classic!!!!
i think the equivalent would be her talkin about theres something about mary, then i say something like "but , well, i love video games"
anyhow, i actually talked to one girl on here that somewhat knows what shes talkin about regarding ufc, so that was refreshing, maybe i can convert her into a big time fan? | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 5:48:11 PM | Where was this thread earlier? I started a topic almost identical...ooops. 
I didn't think most women would be into it...fighting does seem rather primitive, but it has it's positives:
1) Every guy like to feel macho. Nothing says 'tough guy' like a black eye or a fat lip.
2) Nothing builds respect like being beat by your foe.
3) Unlike sex a fight is pretty easy to get into.
It's not that brutal, really. There are legitimate rules in organized fighting.
I think it satisfies every mans urge to feel like the alpha male. Most guys I know like to tumble. Like how women like to b*tch about each other and how fat so and so's thighs are or have catty fights, men fight and get it over with.
Guys can have a serious grudge, have one fight and the loser is VERY clear you will always have one loser and one winner, there are no maybes.
The loser has no choice but to accept to defeat, so in way, not to sound like a hypocrite, but I guess fighting does solve problems, when it's done respectfully, which is what organized fighting is all about -- respect. | |

Posted: 5/31/2008 6:03:06 PM | I am one of those women that truly love the UFC and have it listed in my profile. I am a dedicated watcher of UFC and have even started watching WEC in recent months. I do pay for the championship/special fights that come on pay-per-view and am also a dedicated watcher of the reality show that comes on each season. Not sure of the others if they are listing it because they like it or because they think it looks good - I, for one, am not the type to list things that I don't like just to get someone's attention - that's definitely not my style, lol.
So, for me at least, what's on my profile, is only things I enjoy and are not there to impress anyone! :) | |

Posted: 8/8/2008 9:11:04 AM | | Jazmella: Totally agree with you. Seeing UFC as an interest in a woman's profile completely turns me off. I think it's a little twisted for women (or anyone) to get their jollies from watching brutality. I would worry about dating someone that got off on something that caused serious injury. If you actually like watching people getting maimed or killed for real, serious mental help is needed. Boxing's bad as well, but at least there's a line you don't cross. Wrestling's a little different since it's more acrobatic without too much serious injury. I really think we have a lot of evolving to do. | |
