@CIENEGALOKO13 I know. I'm saying that Lewis seems to approve of UFC specifically, since he was working for UFC at one point. I'm also saying that, broader than just UFC, Lewis seems to have respect for MMA. And beyond that, Lewis considers MMA fighters to be legit martial artists, and I don't see the grounds for denigrating them, their training, or their abilities.
@1337mma And you know this how, exactly? Do you own a time machine? It sounds like you're just saying completely unverifiable nonsense based on stuff you made up in your head. The entire premise of "guy from the 70s versus guy from today" is idiotic anyway, like saying "Albert Einstein was a better scientist than Isaac Newton." You can't even begin to make sense out of a comparison like that.
@CIENEGALOKO13 Joe Lewis doesn't like UFC? He worked with UFC in the early days as a post-fight interviewer. I've also personally been at seminars taught by Lewis and heard him talk about the value of mixing striking and grappling training, so he clearly has no problem with MMA.
And UFC fighters are somehow not martial artists all of a sudden? What are you talking about? I'm pretty sure those people practice martial arts.
Joe Lewis was the real thing!!!!...he did achieved as a figther a lot, not only in movies...not like others so called "kings of martial arts",wow he is great!!!!
melvin keeps disrespectfully passing off his cowardice as being cool by constantly turning his back to joe. I'd punch him in the back of the fucking head

@TheRichardHinckley UFC and MMA are not synnonymous. UFC is a corporation.

@killerwill77 Cowardice? He's in a boxing ring with Joe Lewis. I'd say that proves him "not a coward" right there.
