Ok, I got this idea from another thread, list your favorite sports in order and how much you watch them.

Futbol (Serie A, Forza Inter!) - religiously
College football - Weekly
College basketball - Weekly
UFC - All of them
NFL - some playoffs, I catch a week here or there
NHL - some playoffs, regular season, here and there
Nascar - rarely watch

Rugby - its hard to watch it here in canada you get it on a specialty channel called Setanta sports, primarily international stuff like RWC, and 6 nations, but i like Guiness premiership and Super 14 as well
NHL - Ottawa senators, i've given up on the maple laughs

watch this whenever i can as well as international hockey
UFC - GSP, ultimate fighter and whenever its on, great action
NFL - watch this the odd time, Philly eagles fan
Lacrosse - if i ever see it on i'll watch it, played some box lacrosse a year or two back, most people don't know that its Canada's national sport lol, and its mostly a north american thing. i wouldn't be surprised if the European people on here didn't know what it was.
these are the sports that interest me the most but i'll watch pretty much anything that interests me at the moment lol

Don't really watch a lot, but love to play football and basketball. Well use to play football. Nobody ever want to play with me they all say i play to rough. (bunch of wimps) Try telling me a flying clothesline or flying elbows are against the rules. I never seen it in any rule book. lol

I used to watch UFC back in the day... now it seems it's nothing but glorified boxing.

Back in the day, you'd watch UFC and it would be a tournament, with like 30 guys coming in each with different fighting styles. You'd see broken bones, knock outs, dislocations, etc.

Now it's just 30 minutes of crotch punching, followed by a judge's decision.

AFL- weekly
Rugby both codes - weekly
NBA- weekly
Thats about it really, i used to watch more but i have grown out of the rest.

ufc is that way now because the level of fighters that come in, so well rounded they need to be precise on what they do or it could cost them the fight in seconds. one style can complety destroy the others hense why i love mixed martial arts, when i was kid i went to a fighting tournement and won 1st place at semi contact,i was trained in tie kwon do, I won seats for the full contact fighting at the end of the night for the adults.their was this team of Moi tia kickboxers from tialand came in and for this tounement they had knees and elboes legal, they just demolished every fighter their, it was just a bloodbath, ref were throughing in the tower ever second fight, entertaining but in a way it was completly unmatched, shortly after seeing how bad any single style including my own was that was not moi tia kickboxing, i quit and it was a month or so before recieving my black belt,heartbreaking to say the least. now the ufc is so well rounded its anyones game. hense why i like the new ufc better than the old ufc,UFC all the way by far the best sport to watch. imo

I love UFC and WWE. Yes i said it sometime i watch wrestling and yes i know it's not real. But still fun to watch.lol

Lankyrob · 06-30-10, 03:48 PM

imo UFC is the Ultimate combat sport - at the time i had my accident i was in training to become a fighter in the UK - prob too old at 30 to ever make it as far as the UFC but would have loved to get in the ring (or octogan) and give it a go. Unfortunately for me that is no longer feasible - the training schedules tho were awesome in three months i lost 4% body fat and put on nearly a stone in muscle - thankfully using the wheelchair means i have kept a lot of the upper body muscle but now its just hidden under a layer of fat!!

I like to watch Gymnastics and Synchronized swimming. They are so beautiful! I enjoy the sports with music. That's why I always take dancing lesson at gym instead of machine training or ball games.

Any and all mixed martials arts (UFC, WEC, Pride fighting, etc) and occasionally boxing and kickboxing! Oh...and oil and jello wresting and the Lingerie Bowl LOL! Actually they have a womens roller derby team...thats kinda fun to watch and definitely brutal! Hill-climbing in Sturgis, All Harley Drag Racing, frisbee golf!

PS - hope I kept it clean enough!?!
