    Haha very funny

    I didn't watch the video so I dunno what organization she fights for or who she is, BUT last I checked the UFC provides health insurance for their fighters

    Which some people didn't like, because they felt that fighters would take advantage of it (good god, that's what it's there for) and use it to postpone fights due to 'injuries' that they would normally fight through

    As a side note I would NOT recommend training in any 'hard' sport without some sort of health coverage

    It's way too easy to dislocate a finger or toe while training or fracture something in the process

    In all my years watching the ufc, since the days of bare knuckle brawls and the absence of anything that resembled modern-day blood sport such as weight classes and timed rounds, I've seen plenty of exploding ears and exploding body parts in general

    See if you can a find David lousseau fight where his face was absolutely destroyed via elbow strikes while on the ground

    God it looked like he went to see a butcher and had a disagreement over the price of a good side of ham

    There's also been other fights where already cauliflowered ears just ruptured into a sack of gibblets

    UFC is indeed a bloody mess but that's part of the attraction

    They take gruesomeness to the next level and fans love it

    That's why I don't understand all the controversy surrounding football and hard hits

    I've seen broken arms(a prolonged match between Ken Wayne Shamrock and Ralph Gracie. Or was it Royce Gracie? Shamrock won by decision) and broken legs. But never anything that bloody since Gina Carrano fought Cris Cyborg Santos and lost.

    I used to attend full-contact kick-boxing matches in my late teens, and sitting front row or ring-side, I routinely had blood spattered on me. I was in awe back then but oddly enough as I've gotten older, I can no longer stomach raw fights I once cheered on back in the day.

    Well when ur old enough to fully understand the lasting impact of repeated injury....

    You know...it's kinda like a veteran football player not wanting their children to enter into the sport
