Hockey games are often AS violent as MMA fights with less regulation and more equipment which can cause injury. People really watch Hockey cus they want to see the guys beat each other up - not because they care about the puck.

You missed the point.

The point of Hockey is to score the most points, not win the most fights. If fact, you are penalized for fighting. The more violent team often loses the game.

The point of MMA is to win the fight by using violence.

The people who watch this metaphorical hockey game for the violence have a 4 letter acronym that they label themselves with.
