My friend was over and we watched the Lesnar/Velazquez and he showed me Henderson knocking out Bisping and I literally thought he died. I was just wondering I wonder if they will have to change the rules up a bit after someone dies in there. I am not hating on it but this stuff is just crazy and nor do I think it should be illegal because I think boxing can be just as dangerous and cause more head trauma but these guys bodies get all ****ed up. Just wondering do you think there will be a decline in popularity in MMA after the first death?

No announcement yet.
How will the UFC react to the first death in MMA?

Already happened. Guy was gay too I think? But it wasn't really that big of a deal, I think he was dehydrated or the ref didn't stop it in time or some shit like that. It happened about a year or 2 ago I forget all the facts. I could be completely fucking wrong lol it was that long ago. I'll research tomorrow if somebody doesn't tonight.
Not a real big deal tho, shit happens just like in boxing. Fighting will always be dangerous. People die in football & baseball all the time too.

Accidents happen. It's in the nature of sports.

Originally posted by iloveboxing11 View PostI do not think it will just because it is just weird like how Henderson hit a defense less Bisping who was already knocked out cold flat on his back. You can not hit someone who is defenseless like that in boxing.

In the UFC if somebody died then yeah you'd have nutjob's crying "barbarians" but it's no more dangerous then other sports. The world would still rotate and eventually it'd die down I'd guess.
