You are talking about recent MMA fights, they used to always lose every damn time before crybabies ruined MMA. The would get taken down and submitted. Kickboxer might throw a few punches or kicks, but they would get choked out in the first 2 minutes usually. Since then UFC has changed their rules to be more friendly towards stand up fighters like kickboxers. Before that they were completely dominated, now people like Chuck Lidell aren't jobbers anymore. This is all due to rule changes like small joint manipulation being outlawed that has led to stand up fighters actually winning some fights. PRIDE doesn't count because it is run by a former pro-wrestler/promoter and has been exposed as having fixed fights years ago.
