Fabulous image with a very strong and beautiful use of colored lights !!
Absolutely well done my friend!!!
Excellent!!!!!!
Impressive Tone, very nice.
Love the character and coloration. MMA has drastically changed the game for many like our fighter here. In the older days it was all about stand-up skills. Then along came MMA and the Gracie's intro of BJJ. Then the whole game went to the ground. Later the Eastern Bloc fighters, introduced team fighting 5 on 5 matches. That is some really mean stuff. So stay on your feet if you can my friend. The ground is no place to be when his friends begin applying the shoe leather.
I'm a longtime fan of many combat sports, and agree with the general aspects of MMA's history as you described it. In a lot of ways I think that Bruce Lee pointed the way toward this in the early 1970s - the Game of Death almost seems to point the way toward the "What-If?" scenario of placing fighters with different elite skill sets against one another. The introduction of weight classes was very important to maintain some type of parity in the ring or cage and like every fan I sometimes wonder just what the referees, judges, and promoters were thinking regarding certain matches!
Fantastic Work,
wonderful lighting together with a powerful pose
