    An ACL* injury is a tear or sprain of the anterior cruciate (KROO-she-ate) ligament (ACL) - one of the major ligaments in your knee. ACL injuries most commonly occur during sports that involve sudden stops or changes in direction, jumping and landing - such as soccer, basketball, football and downhill skiing.

    I use to hear ma big brother saying that martial arts it's about discipline and being calm I guess he was telling me the truth because really Boyka is so calm and he talks with respect he doesn't show pride or ego can we have more movies of him plz plz

    I have just as much respect for a MA movie star as a competition fighter (just simply for different reasons). They are good at 2 different things, and maybe one would not be able to do the other, but they are both skilled. Even the Choreography you see in things like WWE must take great skill. I really Like Scott Adkins' Choreography. I think he is very very skilled, cool to watch, and very athletic.

    Scott Adkin’s Undisputed interviews are incredibly mind jarring just to hear that cultured British accent coming out of Yuri Boyka
