Mixed martial arts (MMA) has long been frowned upon. Martial arts fits perfectly into our times.
The blood from the previous fight is quickly drained away, new blood will soon flow. 11:15 p.m., thousands in the hall are cheering for the highlight of the evening. The two fighters, pumped up and starved at the same time, attack each other. Punches, kicks, in staccato. After 246 seconds, one man’s right fist slams into the other’s chin. He falls against the cage bars in a daze. Swing out. Strike. Bam. Once again. The victim loses all facial features and collapses to the ground. The referee intervenes. Over. Knockout in the first round. The winner raises his arms in the air. Lights flash across the stands, a song by Kid Cudi blares from the speakers.
