usrper,
If that was your first time to see it, you are basing your opinion on only one show.
I'm not sure exactly which show you saw on Spike because they've been showing the fight that was live this past Saturday night, and the fights from the finale of the Ultimate Fighter television show.
All I can say is, you're way off mark in assuming that the guys in the ring are losers, or have no skills. That is in no way true.
Some fights are boring, and some are over the top action packed. A good fight showcases several fighting disciplines - stand up fighting, wrestling, submissions, etc.
It is all very technical even though it may not look like it.The gloves on their hands are little more than a thin leather cover above their knuckles. It is nothing like boxing.
It's a show that is as much about the offensive strategy as the defensive. Having watched several fights, it's always interesting to see more and see how people are evolving. So many fighters in UFC have become incredibly well rounded, whereas some used to be dominant at just one type of fighting.
