Im looking most forward to the Diaz/Davis and Florian/Maynard fights. I like watching Baroni as well, he is a total tool, but he will pass out before tapping, which is highly entertaining.

Try it for what?

I don't do any martial arts, but as far as I know, Ninjitsu is a soft style which has emphasized ways to kill your opponent which should traditionally be a samurai. It contains "dirty tricks" like throwing sand in your opponents eyes and many ways to disarm and use their weapons against them.

It's cool (and perhaps pretentious and cheesy) and probably fun to learn, but I'm not sure how valid it would be on a day to day basis in my life at least. For dealing with agressive people and not assassinating them, I would think jujutsu which has a lot of locks that you use to stop people from fighting or something else would be a better choice.

A samurai sword is good too but if you are afraid of hurting yourself you can use a bokken for practice.Without momentum and the increase skill costs,I don't see how MA will be playable. MA revolved around momentum unless something has changed.

UFC 125 is going to be pretty sweet. Nate Diaz, Guida, Leben, Baroni, Edgar, Maynard, Vera, Gomi, Silva all on one card is highly entertaining.
