  • DAFAQ? TRACK AND FIELD IS A DEFINITELY A SPORT.

  • @Edgaros FUCK HIM!!

  • this guy has NO point.

  • @boogynights then they should go to boxing which was originally intended as a sport which was later turned into a self defense. but things like tae kwon do or ju-jitsu were meant to prevent someone harming oneself

  • @shadowhawk72 I respect that those techniques and are meant in combat and the sport behind the mix fight is holding the true source of what it really is meant for but it's regulated in competition in full contact sparring. To not intend to kill but to show all above in martial way of living in pride and challenge, honor, displaying skills with one others skills in non-battle conditions is regardless can be a sport.

  • @boogynights translation : fighting each other with techniques that were developed to defend oneself. every single self defense teaches to only use what you know if you are attacked. i don't see anybody getting attacked there. i see two parties willing using their knowledge to harm one another

  • @shadowhawk72 The mix fight is the truest form of human competition between 2 combatant artist in All disciplines in unarmed combat of show case of honor and martial skills.

  • mma is not a sport in that what they are learning should only be used in self defense and they are using it as an excuse to harm other people

  • His definition of sport is very narrow

  • I agree, MMA isn't a sport. It' a lifestyle. If you're an athlete in MMA, you live and breathe fighting. MMA is something on an completely different level. No sport is like MMA.
