I love the physical chess match of how the counters are set up, but I’m not a fan of the head trauma one bit.
I don’t watch any football for that reason. Mma isn’t much better, but at least there’s not a school/state sponsored farm system trying to trap kids into having brain damage at an early age like football.
It’s my one guilty pleasure, but I’m not convinced mma is a good thing for the population & definitely not the way it is promoted.
Hey I'm all for some fights in sports and hard hits and crashes and all that excitement. It's just these KO's are so brutal, where the fighter's head is torqued so far to the side it cuts off vital blood flow to the brain or there's blood splatter. Yeah I definitely start worrying about CTE, brain damage, and the socio-economic factors that got a fighter to this place to start.
And I will refrain from voicing my opinions about the NCAA and even amateur extreme sport sponsors. Both only care about money and manipulate to system to legally exploit these athletes.
Not an MMA fan so much anymore. That stuff just sort of twists my stomach watching those KOs.
But those are some epic 'Finish Him' level moves.
Happy Friday!
