So like football, you can gird your loins so that your loins can be exploded by even harder impact. This is insanity.
The only way to make "fighting sports" safe is to ban hits to damage-prone areas of the body. But the organizing body's in those sports are unwilling to go far enough - apparently we want, nay, _need_ to see blood, spit, injury and yes, death in our "fighting sports".
