2.Or is there another reason for the disenchantment? I will admit that sometimes, watching MMA standup is painful after watching great boxers work.

1. In the MMA forums here, If you don't agree with what someone says, you are a f ag or a newb, or you have a lot of postsetcetc etc.
Look at hte boxing forum. here if I disagree with someone, its respected and if someone disagrees, theyare intelligent enough to back it up with something. Its good discussion. The MMA forums are just a bunch of high school geeks trying to impress each other.
2. Mostly what I said. But its a lttle more. I really have been watching UFC since the second UFC was released on VHS. Everyone says that, but I really have been a fan for years. Now I'm seeing pro wrestlers take the spotlight, internet sensations... i don't like it. Thats just my opinion, but I'm embarrassed by it. Also, the fights seem to play out all the same. I never really get a big surprise, I never see true top fighters fght each other. The rankings mean less in MMA than they do in boxing, and they mean shit in boxing. I'm starting to get the feeling I get when I talk to someone that enjoys pro wrestling.
