These days, the rules are different, and alot of his hits would be illegal. And that is a good thing.
The theme of the thread though is where to draw the line between entertainment and safety. Is MMA still acceptable in a civilized society? Are devastating knee, shoulder or other injuries acceptable risks for entertainment purposes in other sports like soccer and hockey?
I think the free market will decide.
I don't spend dollars on MMA because I think it's too brutal. The odd hockey fight to me is ok, so I spend on the NHL.
