I mean, there was some fighting, Sanda…. There was wrestling here and boxing there. But to have a sport with the least amount of rules as possible and it to be worldwide, MMA as a concept has done more to promote and preserve realistic MAs than anything in the last thousand years. It’s that important…. It’s a sport, but it's real fighting. And, it’s well-rounded fighting.
