So you are one of "those" too... but unlike ...Yawn! So you are one of "those" too... but unlike you, you dolt, I get emailed everytime someone leaves a comment because I use Comment Moderation on this blog in an attempt to prevent anonymous idiots like you leaving abusive comments. <BR/><BR/>Let's tackle your points one by one shall we. The news report that inspired this particular blog (on the BBC) specified that these particular caged fights were being held in a "circular caged ring". Got that? I'm well aware that a normal boxing / wrestling ring is indeed square. <BR/><BR/>You are a coward for making anonymous posts. End of. Don't bother making anymore because they will not be published. And actually, to clear up another point, I don't <I>have</I> to publish them. This is MY blog where I am allowed to say what <I>I</I> like. If you want to celebrate the travesty that you think is a "sport" then kindly do so on your own blog. <BR/><BR/>I don't care how many years of training these guys have... I dare say the pilots who flew the planes on 911 were also well trained. Does this justify their actions or somehow ennoble them? I think not.<BR/><BR/>Any kind of sport where people or indeed animals are encouraged to physically hurt each other IS barbaric. I question our need for such things in a so called modern, civilized world. <BR/><BR/>The fact you are trying to help these kids is admirable. That I cannot deny though I question the methods. Is violence the only outlet for them. Being paid to hurt and be hurt? What a sad waste of a life. Wouldn't getting them an education be a much more effective way of helping them out of their circumstances. Is violent sport the <I>only</I> option open to them? Or is that merely what people like you tell them, I wonder? Would you make any money out of them if you, for example, encouraged them to go to college instead? <BR/><BR/>That you seek to justify a sport which is reprensible to the vast majority of people by crying crocodile tears for the poor and the suppressed is distasteful in the extreme. You disgust me. <BR/><BR/>Now, if you don't mind I have much better things to do than publish your ill-educated and ill thought out repostes on my blog.

I know this must be hard to understand but there’s violence in all sports! So are all sports "barbaric" as you so love to put!? I also like how you need to act like a ten year old and begin swearing and calling me a coward for making a point! Sadly enough it seems you’re becoming "barbaric"! And speaking of cowardly acts I like how you are trying to stop me from commenting back! MMA is a very "technical" in which people spend years traveling to different places learning both new and old forms of combat and in some cases it helps these people! I own an MMA training facility in North East Ohio and I’ve seen some amazing things happen to these kids that come off the street and I help them get a second chance in life! So don’t you dare put these kids down for trying to get there lives back in order!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009574.post-54207505567581406942008-04-13T15:42:00.000+02:002008-04-13T15:42:00.000+02:00Anonymous you're a thick thug-loving nob.

(2) It IS barbaric; I don't give a toss what "rules" there are to make it "safe", at the end of the day you are getting your rocks off watching two human being knock 7 kinds of crap out of each other. Which makes you a sick fuck. Don't bother posting anymore comments Mr "Anonymous" (you fucking coward) because they won't get published.

Also, its two fighters in a boxing styled ring, a hexagon, or an octagon! Not a cicle!

TV is enough (plus, my attention span wouldn't last that long!). Looks like the days of Rome are coming back...:-)-eve-https://www.blogger.com/profile/01051512896652327719noreply@blogger.com
