We all do recognise the potential danger in any sport. The danger one might face in an everyday life event. My question is this: why do we need to go out of our way to create danger? In a racing grand prix car, engineers apply the best their brains has to offer in rendering that superfast racing car as safe for the driver as they possibly can.
When I mentioned the word danger above, I meant the cause of harm to someone else. You may say but this is sport, and that even though a sport like the UFC may appear brutal to some, it still does follow certain rules and guidelines (after all, the fighters are not gouging their opponent's eyes out, or punching at their throat etc), that's an argument I do understand. However, a man's worth is his brain (much more so than his body) as is evident by one of the giant thinkers of our time: physicist Dr. Stephen Hawking.
What's Ausbb's opinion on this subject?
