Wanderlei hit again by a moving vehicle early this month rererere-reconfirms excessive MMA training = negatively affecting life.
In traditional karate that became extremely popular worldwide during the counter culture era, you are strictly taught to avoid getting hit. One punch kills and make no mistakes in defending it, they always said and reminded students of the fatal situations that might turn into reality any day.
In MMA, you're required to toughen yourself up, take risks and bang out or shoot. In the words of Rocky Balboa, "get hit and move foward to win", dumbest thing I'd ever heard in my life. Well, you may be able to fight like that for once or twice in lifetime but continuing to do so for career long is not going to guarantee good outcomes.
Let's look at some of the MMA professionals who have helped prove that MMA is a very bad activity to get involved in over a certain extent. You lose your control gradually and start to invite unnecessary troubles that you otherwise never have to encounter. They got into fights with traffic, people, the law and themselves.
Quinton Jackson
Matt Hughes
Jacob Ortiz
Kkazuo Misaki
Ryan Jimmo
Hayato Sakurai
Renato Sobrel
Justin Eilers
Angela Lee
Jon Jones
Tapout Mask
Roger Guerra
Sean Strickland
Daniel Straus
Kris Midoux
Julianna Pena
The list goes on forever
