Bill Wallace and others have opined that the ground and pound is going to show.. "It's a street fight".

I've been thinking about this for a long time ever seen I first started watching. When do we see the CTE effects. Tito Ortiz has always been a retard so that doesn't count.
 
Not sure. Gonna get some new case studies tonight
I guess it all depends on when the sport got modernized to its current form. Maybe ten years from now?

When did ground and pound become a stable center? Colemans era?
 
Spencer Fisher and Nam Phan have clearly shown the effects of fighting. CTE is no joke. We've seen first hand with football players how it impacts their lives and decision making. It's quite sad.
I think football is worse than mma though
 
So no boxers have CTE then?

Good to know, genius.
Well the claim is boxing is worse but the data isn't in yet. Ground and pound is young among professional athetles. Early UFC had dads fighting who we never saw again.
 
Many guys post-UFC have it and a few fighting now probably also have it currently.
