Some interesting views here.
UFC is dramatically more civilised than the Romans n the Colleseum. I haven't seen UFC fighters getting fed to Lions or mowed down by chariots with spiked bladed wheels. No one to my knowledge has died in the real UFC shows. Unlike boxing (which is all punching to the head hundreds of times) UFC incorporates both wrestling, and many varietys of martial arts. Also, boxing is badly rigged n very corrupt. Havent seen that in UFC yet and I am a big fan n follow the sport closely.
I did martial arts for apx 15 yrs when younger (Japaneese Shotokan Karate if u want to get technical) and its saved my life a good half a dozen times over my 44 yrs when a pack of drunks have decided to attack the loner walking down the street).
Kids these days are encouraged to go to a gym n learn boxing or UFC rather than taking it to the street. Ofcourse, there are always going to be the idiots who are cowards n attack people in public for no reason), but UFC is professionally run and fighters are 99 percent professional and always shake hands before n after a fight (vast majority).
Unlike USA very popular wrestling, UFC fighters don't hit people over the head with chairs (stacks of fans in professional wrestling are kids) and Pro Wrestling shows people getiing hit over n over n over again when they are play acting hurt etc. You never see that in UFC.
I think theres a place for everything in life n sport. When u start to see weapons n lions introduced into the UFC cage, then I will say ban it, but I don't see the world speaking latin again anytime soon or throwing Christians over the UFC cage for the combatants to pumble....
UFC is professional. Ever seen the most beautiful champion Rhonda Rousey (oooo laaaaaa laaaaa) She is hot.
Imagine if she was your wife, U wouldn't want to argue much, you would be arm barred in about ten seconds n your balls squashed in 3 seconds.lol
