I simply cant get into the idea of going out of your way to get your brains beat in. Long term that destroys your body. But then again, I like the NFL and head injuries are a growing problem and one the sport hid for a long time.What's wrong with serving instinct? It's what we are. It's where our motivation comes from, and it's where our neurological pleasure rewards come from. You don't like fighting; you prefer listening to Abba. Fine-- you don't have the same level of testosterone that other members of society do, or the same instincts that they do, and there's nothing wrong with that. However, do you like it when people crash into your 80's music threads calling you unmanly because that music is so hopelessly superficial and lacking in musical depth or passion that it belongs more in elevators than on the radio?
I guess really you still have to let humans make their own choices. But I simply hate how evolution has played out to where men have to prove themselves to everyone. I think far too many in our male species don't understand how fragile they are in reality. But like I said, you'll wont change evolution even if you can make more people aware.
The fact is that this particular match is probably the most anticipated fight in the history of fighting. It involves closely-matched opponents with very different styles, and has a back-story that stretches back for years. Whatever you think about the sport, this particular event is of a level that transcends that sport.
So put your coin in the jukebox, put on your sequined jacket, and boogie on outta here.
