You know, I see a lot of people say this, and when you're not familiar with the ground aspect of it first, it can be a bit boring. That said, after watching it for a while, and when you start to pick up on the finer aspects of the ground game it actually becomes more impressive if you ask me. You can be lucky and get a knockout head kick in, but you don't accidentally pass someone's guard and submit them. The skill and conditioning required for the ground game is the most impressive part if you ask me.
Someone becoming an extremely masterful Chess player is impressive, but the skill involved in it still doesn't make the concept of watching two people play chess any more appealing to me.
