Sammy and I used to train together at Revolution Dojo. He was a great fighter with a lot of heart. He would always demolish me in Jiu-Jitsu. Rest in peace homie.
Please fucking LISTEN to what this guy is saying before hitting DISLIKE button!! HE IS DEFENDING the fighters and MMA. "How about life insurances for families of fighters? Health insurances for the fighters themselves? How about better pay?" Hey people I know death is really tragic, but LISTEN and UNDERSTAND what is going on before blaming anybody
i am appalled by seeing so many people say this sport is barbarian and horrible. deaths happen in every sport and there are tons of rules and things they do to prevent these things in all sports, including mma. and just like mma, every sport has unfortunate incidents that sometimes end in a death.
Sports will keep changing but the spirit will never. Audience has and will always cheer for both, the winner and the one who lost. I think it is more glorious to die while doing what you love to do rather than dying in a wheel chair of old age ..
From 1993 to 2015, one death related to pro mma injuries. Boxing on the other hand from 1998 to 2006, has 70 deaths attributed to it. In mma when a person is essentially ko'd, then it's over, in boxing they get a standing count and go on to take more punishment. www.askmen.com/sports/fanatic_300/316_which-is-more-dangerous-boxing-or-mma.html
The issue in street-fights is often when a guy gets knocked out and falls, his skull cracks against the pavement. Seen it happen and it is not a pleasant sight.
I couldn't agree with you more. I hate it when people try and bash MMA and attempt to portray it as a disgusting sport, when there are plenty of sports out there where athletes get hurt just the same, if not, worse.
It's a sport. We also refer to BJJ and Judo and "playing". "You wanna play?" = "You wanna go a round?" "Are you playing?" = "Are you competing in this comp?" We're athletes so it's no surprise for us that we use athlete terms. Hope it clears the air. :)
MMA is way safer than prize fighting. Fights are generally stopped more promptly, many fights end with submissions or limb injuries that don't involve head trauma, having a fight continue until one fighter is unconscious is actually rare. Compare that to prize fighting where a majority of fights end in LOC, and where fighters suffer repeated blunt trauma over and over, which is much more damaging to the brain than a one punch broken nose or whatever.
it doesnt matter because we are talking about deaths/year. the reason is very simple , in Boxing you can get up from a knock down and continue fighting injured where in MMA a knock down is usually the end of the fight
You forgot to mention also that many probably die from bleeding ulcers that aspirin use caused or made worse. But it is rarely used since the reyes syndrome scare of the 1970's so the deaths aren't that many. I am HUGE MMA fan and a medical guy but I am amazed, and glad of course, that there aren't more deaths. I mean these guys are some tough MF's
When a boxer goes down, fighting is stopped. I agree that boxers can sustain more damage merely because they are allowed to sustain more blows, but at least it teaches people that it is not right to hit a man who is unconscious.
"Proctor and Gamble have proven that seeing same stuff over and over can program your mind." Of course, whenever someone is seeing something, there is a reception. But HOW this reception turns out, is something entirely different. Proctor and Gamble might be ricgt in so far, that what you see somehow influences you. But in which way it does, not only depends on what is seen but also on the person, who sees it.
Coroners verdict was and he said cerebral haemorrhage caused by subdural haematoma, so it was from a/multiple blows to the head. He might have had this BEFORE fight night even, as its normally a tiny artery that has bled. The only way is to drill into the skull to release the fluid in the area of the brain that has got pressure on it. We had a plumber knock his head in a loft, came in dizzy,sick. Gave him an MRI & he had the same thing, or you just die in your sleep never knowing. God bless bro
That's not really how probability works. Just because something has a 1/6 chance of happening, that doesn't mean it happens once every six times. It means if you tested it an infinite number of times, successes would be 1/6th of failures.
More and more people are waking to the realization that helping others is in fact helping yourself thanks in part to true shambala warriors...Warriors that battle their own faults and their own Dark souls instead of taking it out on others...People are realizing that they have 2 personalities speaking to them (thoughts) one speaks the right thing to do and the other is the oposite, as all things have 2 polarities to them, even thoughts. People are starting to want to do right instead of wrong...
Fighters know the risks that they are undertaking when they step into the ring or cage. They have to sign a contract that covers the possibility of death as a result of the fight. If you don't like it, don't watch. But frankly, you are safer in that cage than walking to work
Ryan Kader Lol MMA is a very aggressive kind of sport. You can break your neck or have alot of braindamage. Then there is no way to fix that problems. Still always nice to watch if people destroy each others faces
***** Bas Rutten is a awesome fighter i like that dude but i think he's lucky for not having alot of brain damage because he's a very good fighter, noobs will die in such fights.
I completely agree...This is a sport, and with ANY sport, there is a calculated risk for injury/death. Other sports have health/life insurance...why not MMA?
There has been 7 KNOWN deaths in the short history of MMA. This dosent include deaths from small promotions in places like brazil or the former soviet union or vale tudo fights.
It doesn't matter the amount of money a fighter makes, or the type of life insurance they have, they know the pros and the very upsetting cons of MMA and even Pro-Boxing. It's life or death in the ring or octagon. Although I enjoy watching these warriors go at it, i want them to come out alive and with a few bruises and cuts, never death or being paralyzed. I tip my hat to those who fight pro. God knows I wont be able to. Thanks.
These guys are warriors and it's amazing more of them don't get hurt. I guess that's why the Referees jump in so soon when the fighter doesn't tap out. :o
Better insurance and pay for these guys? This is not a necessity. There are many more important jobs out there that deserve better pay and insurance such as teachers and caregivers to name a couple. They know the dangers, they choose this and if they do not like the risks, pay or insurance then they should go find a job better to their liking. If you get punched in the head for a living you should know undesired consequences can occur.
this is true, but i highly recommend beginning this with football or baseball which are extremely higher more payed sports. but ufc fighters do get paid quite enough
yup,,IS NOT About Better insurance and pay or the SHOW,,who cares about the show,,once you are in the Ring,, ONE on One,,only one thing matter,,one goal,...skill to survive, whatever it takes... to be the winner.
Those are 2 completely different scenarios though. Someone being choked to death is much different than a person suffering brain damage and dying at a later date. If a ref allowed someone to be choked unconscious, to the point of death, it would look terrible for the sport. It wuldn't end it, but things would slow down and change quite a bit. And I imagine there would be even more unnecessary stoppage just to be safe.
Then explain to me this: Even though movies, video games etc. get more graphic and explicit, violent crimes become less and less. The crime statistics for murder, battery etc. are constantly going back. How can this be? When violence (be it in sports, video games or movies) is more present and more explicit these days, shouldn't we experience more violence around us and not less? The criminal statistics of the last years have shown a constant decrease of violence related crimes.
Yes but the "jump down heel kick" and other forms of stomping aren't allowed anymore in the UFC, Strikeforce, and the other types of American MMA sports. They may still be allowed in Japan at Pride, but I can't remember. They stopped allowing that for the obvious reason...To stop a major and likely fatal blow.
The problem i have with mma is that it sometimes goes to far. I love martial arts, but when someone goes down you don't keep pounding on them and try to break their skull... Some of these fighters have no break and keep pounding even when a referee tries to pull him off a opponent who's already knocked out. That to me is not sport ... Its a attempt to kill someone.
I can see where you're coming from. but as an MMA fan I simply believe that everything we enjoy in life doesn't have to have a logical reason behind it.sometimes the things that seem the most logical are also the most absurd. so I say simply fuck it. we are who we are....
I agree with you on men's natural agression. But how should watching MMA make viewers more violant? C'mon - the same BS has been uttered about video games, rock music, comics, action movies and so and so forth. The assumption that someone, who looks at something violent, becomes violent himself, holds no water anyway. Especially when the watched violence has nothing to do with the viewer personally. He views it as entertainmant. How should it make him more violent?
@OgBJJ thank you, at last a decent comment on here. I was starting to get worried that not a single person on the face of this earth ever did any research beyond watching fox news. God help us all if our future rests in the power of the fox news people.
There are some really shitty refs in MMA, you cannot deny that. Joe Rogan wanted the head of one of them because it was so obvious the ref was lulled in with the crowd and watching the bloodlust instead of protecting an obviously outmatched opponent. I wish I could remember the fight... I would post.
Boxing is more life threatening (fatal) but UFC/MMA is more brutal. That needs no statistics to prove as in Boxing to KO opponent in 99% of cases it has to be done by strong punches to the head while in MMA there are unlimited techniques targeting all body part that seem brutal but not as fatal as head injuries.
Seriously, all of you commenting negatively towards me needs to stop whining! I know a bunch of people who fight in these competitions at the local level. These events are barbaric and take advantage of the poor, uneducated and desperate.
Also the context matters. Seeing two men fight in television isn't the same like experiencing a violent father. The first is mere entertainment in the mind of the recipient, the latter is cruel reality. For all this reasons I don't see how violence in media makes one more violent for real. Neither the numbers, real life experiences nor common sense back that thesis up. [irony]And if you don't believe that ... IWILL FIND YOU! I have to drown a squirrel now to make me feel better.[/irony]
LA MMA ES UNA CHIMBA.....PERO PIENSO QUE NO SE DEBERÍAN PERMITIR LOS RODILLAZOS EN LA CARA NI LOS CODAZOS SI UNO ESTA EN EL SUELO Y PIENSO QUE DESPUES DE UN KO NO DEBERIA PERMITIRSE QUE SE LE SIGA GOLPEANDO,ESTO ELIMINARIA VIOLENCIA EN EL DEPORTE
You're welcome. I suppose you have a point, haha. It just kind of grows on you because some of these guys play in different sports. They join wrestling, BJJ, Judo and MMA tourneys and use play as a universal term.
............. what!? You expect me to eat a fucking expensive rock!? WTF!?!? How is eating a quartz that cost 25 bucks gonna cure my headache!? Hell, WHY would I do that for a TEMPORARY relief!!?!? is there is something you are leaving out!?!?
@cypresscoach The reason there are fewer deaths in MMA is because there are more ways to end the fight. If you get subbed immediately you might not even take a punch, and there's zero brain trauma. In MMA it is also not considered cowardly to quit like in boxing. Also the gloves in MMA do less long term damage. Boxers are told that quitting is cowardly which leads fighters to fight when they are clearly beaten and have no hope of continuing safely. It's not as simple as you say...........
if a fight where 90% of the times there is one guy lying on his back and the other guy is banging his head with his fists elbows and knees is more interesting for you... then nothing more i can say
Is this guy on drugs? Who is gonna pay life insurance for a bunch of guys DELIBERATELY trying to kill each other? If you don't wanna end up with life-ruining injuries - don't engage in violent activity. Simple
@cypresscoach ........also many of the strikes thrown in MMA are from a position with poor leverage meaning they don't connect with as much force as often as punhes in boxing do. You can hit much harder with your feet planted than you can from inside or while holding guard.
how so?...players have died in soccer on the field....and on the court in basketball...If players are allowed to die there, why not the ring, where its more expected to happen?

Hey people I know death is really tragic, but LISTEN and UNDERSTAND what is going on before blaming anybody
As a fighter I think that they should ban any hits if one of both parties fell down unconsciously, or acts weird, in order to prevent deaths.
I swear to GOD I am in the middle of watching that movie. I have it on as background noise like a radio. you just blew my mind.

Sergio Callao You can die via carbon monoxide, so lets ban breathing as well.
Tyler Durden we shouldmt ban either because most die from being too stupid.......

I thought this video shows the actual fight.. but it is just insurance advertisement..
In street fights, it's never the hit that kills, but the head hitting the ground.

Yes in fact they should bring them back , thats a great idea

i have a allergic reaction for aspirin....aspirin has so many benefits to our body....
while watching this video, 10 people died of tobacco use world wide. there are far more dangerous things in this world than MMA.
The thing is he didn't just die, he was murdered.

hehe i don't think it is good for your health to get pulferized by MMA fists knee's and things like that
no matter what you think, go to thailand and see muay thai for yourself guys.
People who don't know anything about mma shouldn't comment on it.
no it will triple the next PPV earnings. The only thing it will do is make the New York Athletic Commission say "nerr nerr I told you so".

Boxing is nowhere near more lethal than mma , in mma you access to the entire body wich opens you up to way more Injuries and complications

RIP Big Sam.
Why so many dislikes when hes asking legitimate questions. If you dont ask you may never know
Each year, on average, boxing has more deaths and more permanent injuries sustained by practitioners than MMA does.
yes, and mma exists since the ancient Greece...
They signed up...
They knew what they were doing...
This is the result.
Thats not permitted in mma. When someone stops defending themselves that fight is over, no matter what.
Those are 2 completely different scenarios though. Someone being choked to death is much different than a person suffering brain damage and dying at a later date.

Wait until a fighter dies from a choke/submissiion on a UFC PPV. It will end this sport. It will be over.

316 people apparently wanted blood. What's wrong with Straka calling for insurance and better pay?
Yea. Its much better to get knocked silly, stand up, just to get knocked silly again.
Better pay for fighters ?? They often make more after 1 fight than most people make in 1 year.
MMA's not a franchise...
I agree with you on men's natural agression. But how should watching MMA make viewers more violant?

I posted that comment 2 months ago and I still get replies, lol. MMA feeds off the poor and desperate in society, plain and simple.
"an mma player".... what?
The refs won't let it happen and it's quite easy to recover shortly after being choked out
hes right health care life insurance and deff better pay cuz they only make a small amount compared to boxers
spoken like a poker player
you want me to eat a rock? are you serious? A 25 dollar rock?

Seriously, all of you commenting negatively towards me needs to stop whining! I know a bunch of people who fight in these competitions at the local level. These events are barbaric and take advantage of the poor, uneducated and desperate.
No, you said 99.9% of boxers make it out alive. Inferring that for every 1000 boxers, 999 live and one gets killed.
Also the context matters. Seeing two men fight in television isn't the same like experiencing a violent father. The first is mere entertainment in the mind of the recipient, the latter is cruel reality.

Or you know, someone who understands math.
that won't end the sport at all it's a dangerous sport people die playing football and soccer for crying out loud are those sports over nope.
people can comment on whatever the hell they feel like comenting on.
I second that. Better pay!
Health insurance for the fighters?? ROFLMAO...do you really fucking suggest that??
No rules fight to the death

@cypresscoach ........also many of the strikes thrown in MMA are from a position with poor leverage meaning they don't connect with as much force as often as punhes in boxing do. You can hit much harder with your feet planted than you can from inside or while holding guard.
actually i think theres like 4 to 5 deaths man
He died because he had a pre-existing heart condition and should not have been cleared to fight.
I dont get it...Why they gave you 14 thumb down you said everything right...
I was there it was horrible to witness
How about not fucking fighting at all.
........ yeah, you're trolling alright -_-
how so?...players have died in soccer on the field....and on the court in basketball...If players are allowed to die there, why not the ring, where its more expected to happen?
it's possible that's for sure!
No it won't. That will never happen.
