Hi again guys and girls.

I was thinking about what other things people do in the ring in mma. one thing i notice is that before the fight the fighters always stare at each other with a threating cold look about them and get right up in to their face.

(i saw a funny video where they did this then because he was so close the victim gave the guy a kiss on the lips! haha is was funny, look for it on the Internet)

Is this a good way of slightly intimidating your opponent? Showing them a false sense of confidence? or what? Maybe it is just to make the audience get all worked up! Would it motivate you to fight harder, or better?

I would like to hear stories about memories and such.
And any theories.

thanks
David
