I don't think the cage is ideal, but I get really irritated when the action in the ring goes through the ropes, and the fighters are repositioned in the middle of the ring. It breaks momentum, and gives the guy getting beat up a chance to recover.

cage 2000%. It gives it a more hardcore feeling and you don't have problems like frank shamrock vs bas rutten falling out and you don't have like twenty people grabbing the ropes and slapping the fighters hands when the fighters grab on to the ropes

From a fans point of view, i personally like the Ring.
Makes it better to watch, as well you see more.
With a cage, it just causes to many problems to view (if at the event)
From a fighters view, im sure the ring has more benefits. But if your more of a standup guy, you would want a ring. With a Cage, ground guys can use it to their advanatage.

I'm going cage.
-to much stoppage and wasted time in a ring.
-You cant fall out of a cage.
-This isnt boxing, its ok to be different.
-You keep beasts in cages.

cage seems to be a little tougher since the pace is different. you don't get the restarts and what not in a cage
