I’ve always wondered what would happen when a man who was breastfed by his Gran until he was five met Chad Griggs in a ring, haven’t you? What about an over-confident street MMA fighter’s chances when faced with three minutes in a ring with Ben Rothwell? These burning questions don’t keep you up at night? Ok, I admit, I’ve never really pondered these questions either but it didn’t stop me watching the results of these match-ups in the new web show created by Fight.tv, ‘Standing 8 Count.’ This show asks “what’s the difference between a pro and an average Joe?” and unless you can see into the future I suggest you watch episode three, featuring Chad Griggs and episode four featuring Ben Rothwell below. If you’re really interested, the first two episodes feature ex-UFC fighter Rodney Wallace and Roy Jones Jr.'s Sparring Partner Isaac Salter.

Here's one webisode with Chad Griggs.

Here's another of Ben Rothwell doing what he does best.

Ben could have flattened him immediately, but this guy is an amateur and it seems to be an entertainment program, so he went a little lighter on him. That is my impression at least... In any case, Big Ben earned over $100k at UFC 145 so don't worry about him!

He should have flattened him. A huge criticism of MMA involves the boxing, so when the average joes watching see a good knockdown they might take it more seriously.

I will not. That host was shaky and unprepared. His snarl in the introduction reminded me of a very uncharismatic and very unstylish Billy Idol. Having an opinion on a half-assed web series shouldn't constitute name-calling. One would think,,,
