/\ Or just hop over the ropes.

Gimmick. The problem is not the shape, but the ropes. A fighter on the ground starts to squirt out under or between the ropes and the fight has to be reset. That makes for more stops in the action and more referee interference. I like the plexiglas idea! Works for hockey. The ring could be round too. No doors. The fighters come in on hydraulic lifts in the floor (Japanese production) or use a ladder to cross (American production).

Thats fine Dane as long as you don’t have Kalib Starnes as one of the fighters.

my ideal fighting platfor would be two people in the middle of a ring the size of a football field that way the suroundings would in no way come in to play or cause an advantag of somekind

This is a act of desperation. IFL is looking to do anything that will help them. They are bleeeeeding money.

100% agree Oswald.

My ideal cage is a round Plexiglas cage with 8ft walls. Fans will be able to see the action and you don’t have to worry about taking a point off for grabbing the cage.

Kinda like a hamster cage…

That’s stupid, fight in a cage! The MMA fighting in a ring thing is retarted cause when fights get to the ropes people have to move them out of the way or reset in the middle. Wouldn’t have this if you used a cage plus a cage is alot cooler anyway!
