Ground fighting in MMA is to...

...crashes in NASCAR
...Homeruns in MLB
...slam dunks in NBA

at least for people that aren't really 'into' it. You only really wanna see big payoffs, big Knockouts, but you can't really appreciate the ground game, submissions, gaining position, etc.

I love going to places where the fight is being shown, and two fighters are on the ground and some douche in a tapout or affliction shirt yells "this is boring, stand em up"

The refs don't stand fighters up because it's boring for the fans. They stand em up if nobody is being aggressive, or attempting to move to a better position.

Sorry but I have to rant as I've lost a lot of faith in 'fans' of the sport.
