Man, people like you should work at the UFC. You talk about "The Company" like you have a stake in it. As a hardcore fan, I totally relate lol

[@stuiek8044]

It's awesome to see so many fighters working together like a team. People dont get that about MMA. The respect, passion, love, and beauty of the pain and the struggle. This isnt cock fighting. Its Bruce Lee's vision of a perfect world, even the theater of shit talk. He loved the justice and vengeance that came along with fighting in storylines just as much as the love and respect and discipline. Mma is so pure and true to the human condition. If more people understood this, more people would be fascinated by it and participate in training and watching it and spreading the word about it. I can watch bigfoot Silva versus mark hunt 1000x and not cringe once and enjoy it every time. I cant watch an episode of ridiculousness on MTV without needing a shower. Society needs to get their priorities straight. I love you MMA. That feels like the perfect closing to an article about MMA that I've just decided to write. Please dont plagiarize. Nobody will make it to the closing of yours anyway.

To all the fighters who are suing the U.F.C., and not sensibly unionizing, stuff like this for a new sport/company adds up very quickly.
