13 year old Girls MMA bout

Pretty good fight, surprised so many people are put off my kids competing in MMA but then have no problem with them playing American Football or Rugby.
 
haha that's pretty cute. If I had kids of my own I would be pretty interested in watching them do mma
 
They're pretty impressive for their age. Those leg kicks from one of the girls was pretty legit.
 
good stuff TS, thanks for posting
 
That actually looked better than a lot of UFC fights I've seen.

Lol

Good point but neither should not be allowed for kids. Football is bad for your head and they also have kids training boxing.

Whatever, if its your carrer choice in life but you can start doing wresling or BJJ not getting yo head hit.

It is youth pankration so now strikes to the head.

I think doing pad work constantly while sparring once in a blue moon would be necessary to develop proper striking. Also Rugby shouldn't be more dangerous than wrestling for concussions, clash of heads / head smacking the ground on the takedown are probably the main causes and wrestling has just as much chance as rugby for that.

No, wrestling is one oppent you may butt heads but it is unlikely. TD aren't bad, the mat is soft.

In rugby or football where there is multiple opponents colliding you are much more likely to get a concussion and brain damage with skulls knocking.

I don't agree with those people, but I guess they can look past the violence in rugby and football because the main objective of those games isn't to deliberately hurt your opponents.

It's extremely rare to have heads colliding in Rugby. I played for ten years and I've never seen that happen.

I doubt that. Football and Rugby are very concussion inducing sports....a bunch of guys grabbing a ball simultaneously and you think there's few concussion.

Then again you claimed to have played for 10 years...maybe you forgot homey.

I never played football, but I do know that the helmets they wear make head collisions more likely. In Rugby it is extremely rare for heads to collide. It's just the way you are caught to take down your opponent, or even pick up the ball, makes it unlikely for the head to crash into someone else. Watch a few Rugby games and you'll see what I mean.
