Caged Combat?

Caged Combat is coming to Missoula. For those of you who don't know what this is, it is no holes bared, anything goes fighting. Martial Arts, boxing any combination of anything someone wants to use.

The commercial I saw for it showed one fighter sitting on the others chest and beating the crap out of the guy on the bottom. Punching his head side to side with impunity!

I guess some people can call this "sport" but IMO, what the HELL are we as a society doing promoting this! People are actually taking their kids to watch this crap! Is this what we want to teach our children? And YES, it IS much more violent that boxing!!!! Why not go all the way and provide beer/whiskey bottles to hit each other with. Why not baseball bats? Who knows, maybe that's added in later rounds!

Heck, what's next! televised street gang fights? We could have a competition to see who has the toughest gangs in the county! Why not bring back "quick draw" competitions with live ammunition. I can see it now, "Well, we try to only shoot each other in non vital areas but once and a while we're to good and someone dies"!

The guy putting this crap on stated that injury is common!!!! Here's the link for those who are interested.

I hate to break this to you Grizo but Caged Heat has nothing to do with sex! Although when you and Pols and friends get together the actions may be similar! :wink:

Go ahead and go. I seriously doubt that I'll see you practicing what you'll learn in some school yard or read about you kicking the crap out of someone in the Missoulian. Just don't take any kids along!!
 
Just got back and had a pretty good time at the event. It was a lot tamer than I thought it would be, so you should have put down your Geritol, Victor and made the trip down. I don't think your delicate sensibilities would have been hurt in the least. :wink: And I didn't learn anything I didn't already know...thank you very much.

Met, and talked briefly with Chris Leben...the red headed guy on Spike TV's Ultimate Fighter. Nice guy.

Also ran into Lance Spencer who looked absolutely huge. He said he'll be more than ready for the new season.
