| Hello everyone, My name is Gregory but you can call me sugarpooper. I'm 23 years old and have been a huge MMA fan for a number of years now. I was born and raised here in Los Angeles, California. Growing up, I was able to get my black belt in TKD (Tae Kwon Do.) Besides my infatuation with MMA, I also enjoy various sports. I have generally always been opened minded & relaxed, so if we ever get in a heated debate just know that all's well that ends well on my end, to each his own! During my spare time, I enjoy putting together videos for my youtube channel & a bit of gaming. I attended my first UFC event this year, UFC 157. It was an awesome night, and surely glad I went! |

| I'm 18 years old, been a long time MMA fan which I've seen all PRIDE, DREAM and UFC events in an attempt to futher my knowledge in MMA and understand every aspect of MMA. I feel as though I have accomplished that. I'm half American and half Welsh, I live in Wales currently. I enjoy debating with people on any topic I have an opinion on. As long as you can back up your points with more than 1 example, I'll always think your point is valid. I don't take anything on here personally, unless you do give me a personal attack which I won't care too much because I'm just not too bothered. I'm a gamer, I usually play video games in my spare time. I listen to podcasts and enjoy doing podcasts also.
Rich, Sugar and I have essentially decided to have our own MMA forum where we can discuss MMA with everyone. We all have experience with being an admin or moderating forums so we feel like all of us together can create a layed back and chilled MMA forum. If anyone ever has any issues with the forum or even personally, myself and other staff members are always here if you wish to hit us up with a PM. |

| Hey everyone,
I'm a long-term MMA fan and have been a Mod and Admin for MMA sites for several years.
Merc, Sugar, and I decided to get together and start MMA Voice, where MMA and a variety of other topics can be discussed in a more open and relaxed fashion than most other MMA sites on the internet... as long as the discussion is respectful, and not bashing other members we're pretty much open to any discussion.
We also do a couple of MMA shows / Podcasts, where we get together and discuss MMA events, interview MMA fighters, and interview industry insiders as well... feel free to join us on one of our shows and chat some MMA with us in an audio and/or video format.
We hope you take the time join MMA Voice and chat some MMA with us in a relaxed, intelligent, and respectful manner. |

| Whats up everyone, my name is Mike I am 37 I have followed and fought in mma before it was even called that. I started out at 19 fighting in tough man contests in South Carolina parts of GA and NC. I took a break from it for awhile when they started increasing the rules more and more until it became a boxing match. Back in 2008 while living in PA I decided that I wanted to give it one more shot before I got to old to do it. I started training with Barbarian combat sports in Sunbury PA owned and operated by UFC fighter Tim "The Barbarian" Boetsch. I got my national mma ID and took on three fights as a ammy going 2-1. I am a old friend of Rich's and I am glad to be part of this new group. I have met alot of pro fighters as well as trained with quite a few, I have a 11 year old son who has been wrestling since he was 4 and two more boys that will be wrestling before I know it. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask. |

| Welcome to the forum, glad to have you here. As you can see we haven't done much with the skin and logo just yet, but we've done enough changes and work to where the forum can be used well at the moment. Look forward to seeing you around. |

| Hello everyone, my name's Jacob and I'm 18 years old. I currently write for a couple of sites - Fansided and WhatCulture - and I've been a fan of the sport for nearly 10 years now. I try to follow most organisations, not just Bellator and UFC, and I'm becoming more of a fan of WMMA and Invicta as time goes by, but I still think the old-school Pride events were the greatest. My favourite fighter is Mark Hunt for his incredible chin, power and resilience. I'm currently at university so I'm not as active on forums and writing articles as I used to be. Glad to be a part of the site. |

| Hello! My name is David and I'm 21 years old. I started paying attention to MMA around the age of 16-17 and got obsessed with it within a year or 2 after that, it's now the only sport I keep up with. I actually took a year of tae kwon do when I was really young and loved it, but at the time my passion was closer to high school sports so that was short lived. I hope to one day get involved in MMA or any individual martial art again. I love keeping up with all aspects of MMA.. the interviews, press conferences, the actual fight nights, and everything else.. I enjoy it all. I'm always down for MMA discussion and I also play plenty of CS:GO to fill up my spare time! |

| Hey guys! I got referred here by my buddy Rich, but I've known (online) Rich, sugarpooper, merc, and to a lesser extent, Jacob for awhile now.
At 47, I guess I'm the "old man" of the forum, but I'm cool with that. I've been a fan of MMA for a long time now, and started watching UFC when it was in it's single digits, and Pride soon thereafter. Most of my favorite fighters (Don Frye, Mark Kerr, Randy Couture, and Fedor Emelianenko - to name but a few,) have long since retired.
Among the current batch of fighters, I'm a fan of Cain Velasquez, Frankie Edgar, Mark Hunt, Pat Barry, Johny Hendricks - I know I'm missing a few names here, but I love the brawlers. I have a strong loathing for the recently retired GSP, Jon Jones, Anderson Silva, and for reasons I can't quite put into words, Lyoto Machida. You can lump into the "loathing" category any of the "lay and pray" type fighters, and fighters who consistently win via decision *snore*
I love women's MMA, and Hope it continues to flourish in the UFC, and that Invicta remains viable for a long time to come.
Fair warning up front: You will notice a pattern with me, where I will be silent for a long time, then I'll be all over the boards for awhile. This is due to my job: I am a truck driver, I run 3 weeks at a time, then home for a week.
I look forward to continuing my association with those I know already, and getting to know those I don't. Peace, Love, and Arm bars! |
