Knockout or submission?

Which way of finishing a fight is more satisfying for you? Whether you like to watch a certain fight deliver a brutal knockout or a text-book submission, or deliver one of the two yourself.

I know almost everyone (I know atleast) likes to see a knockout, because its more appealing for the fans/viewers at home, and has that "HOLY SHIT!" factor.

For me personally, I love to see a awesome knockout, but I really favor submitting somebody, and watching a fighter finishing a fight with a textbook submission is more appealing to me.

I think submitting somebody shows more of your physical, athletic and technical prowess, and for me personally, I get a sensed that I just made someone feel inferior to me. I mean that in a good way, not a an egotistical way.

So how about you?

I'll take a submission over a knockout any day... especially anaconda chokes!

I don't care as long as it is a great fight not some hug fest or stand up feel out party.

I love a good KO, but there is nothing like a slick sub
