Too Much Sparring Leads to Early Retirement for UFC Fighter

[Taste of Death]

... until he retires early that is

It's definitely not for everybody, but boxing is determining the outcome for most UFC fights these days when it comes to the men.

Head injuries is why I stopped going to the boxing gym. The human body was never meant for that.

Then again at 48 Bernard Hopkins was still holding the belt and knocking fools out.

Because he took care of himself.

I don't know, we can't all be Michael Jordan either.

I think athletes like B Hop would be B Hop no matter what.

The Klitschos too avoid getting hit in the head. They say starting as a child is the best because you can get hit without too much trauma but until they invent a time machine I think it's too late for most of us.

But carry on...

By the way, B Hop stutters too.
