Ton of love here for Bloodsport, but the low-key racism ruins the movie for me. Black breh literally fights like a "monkey". That's what they have there to represent Black fighters?

If they're really doing a remake then I bet anything they make him do capoeira. Still a bit silly and stereotypical but at least it'll look good.

I miss the tradition in early UFC where you would see every discipline represented from the gi to the kata.."MMA" is so oversaturated that everybody looks and fights exactly the same that u can almost see a armbar or choke out comin by the 2nd round lol


I get what you're saying but this isn't entirely true yet. I think of:


Khabib - his own unique blend of Sambo

Jon Jones - Muay Thai with Bruce Lee and boxing influence

Kamaru Usman - freestyle wrestler

Dustin Poirier - basically a boxer

Charles Oliveira - Brazilian jiu jitsu


Those are five of the top pound-for-pound fighters recently and they all drew from different main styles. And there are plenty other fighters in each of those five categories. Obviously it helps to draw from multiple styles, so everyone has some wrestling or some BJJ and some muay thai to their game. But those basic five styles are still distinct, and you can see the clear difference between the best wrestlers and the best strikers, between the sambo guys and the freestyle wrestlers and the more pure BJJ experts.
