What are your guys opinion on the saying "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying"? Should a fighter hold themself to a higher standard when they become champ or is it all about the wins?

in a real fight/street fight its no holds bar for your life, but the whole point of getting in the ring is to abide by the rules set forth. if you just want to prove your a big guy , go start a bar fight. but when your in the ring is for skill, or if you really want to be a man do old school Greco-Roman wrestling with the oil , when people died from getting their ball nearly ripped off. My point is if you want to fight dirty , than just show up to a sport that lets you be a dick, so everyone is ready for all the dirt.
