Affliction

This will be the last Affliction card, they have no more money to dish out, and Josh Barnett is coming back to the UFC and Fedor can go fight his freaks in Japan. UFC is by far the best orginization in the World for MMA fighting. I for one and cheering for Brock to beat Mir on Saturday.

Unconvinced

Folks love their violence. How about a fight to the death? It's coming.

Unconvinced = ignorant

This sport is less violent than boxing where men stand and bash each other's brains to mulch. Here there are other styles and ways to end the fight. More skin cuts, more blood, less prolonged head violence.

I was...

at a Martial Art finals in Oklahoma City one year and thoroughly enjoyed the competition between people who had protective gears to protect vital organs and parts of their bodies, despite bloody noses etc but minus the brain injury. I think the UFC is just plain nuts.
