Intro.

In the hardcore world of MMA, reality can be quite scarce, from injuries, to fighters being awesome human beings, and everything that comes inbetween. This sport does have a darkside, that can be psychological, but the guiding light from some fighters, has never been gone out.

5 Jon Jones Before UFC 135.

Let this be a lesson to all robbers, don't ever come across Jon Jones, and Mike Winklejon after you've tried to rob a woman, because it won't end well for you. This is what happened before UFC 135, Before Jones beat Quinton Rampage Jackson. This is the type of thing that when you hear it, you think that this isn't true, but judging by the amount of eyewitnesses that their were, i guess this is the case. See kids this is proof that crime doesn't pay. Jon Jones could learn from that.

4 When Trash Talk Gets A PPV Moved.

Chael Sonnen, and the country of Brazil, go together like cheeseburgers, and  acid. This started off with The American Gangster running his mouth about Anderson Silva, and. Wanderlai Silva, and then insulting the entire country, and insulting its women. by acting like a sexist idiot. This pissed off an entire country of Brazil to the point that, due to fears for Chaels safety his fight against Anderson Silva, was moved from Rio Brazil in June, to California in July. You heard that right the UFC moved this fight card due to one mans mouth.

3. Real Estate.

Sometimes the call of the real world, and fighting don't always go together. I mean just take a look at the recent liable case surrounding the the UFC just to catch a drift into how badly fighters in some cases are treated. Case and point. In 2013, both Chris Leben, and. Brian Stann two former UFC standouts, retired from the sport, and took up jobs in real estate. Now I get that when you know that your time has come to retire, you need to listen to your boby, but to choose a new line of work, just speaks volumes, when you look at the toxicity of the sport.

2. The Build Around Fight Island.

For all of the world. March 2020 was a worrying, and all round concerning time. For what was coming around the corner, was here, and it held everything in it's grasp. All majors sports were outright held back until further notice, except for the WWE, and. The UFC. The Conneticut group  ran shows from their performance centre, whilst the Vegas outlet waited until the middle of May, to comeback, giving fight fans a sense of normalcy. This wasn't always the case. When the Pandemic kicked off. Dana White said in a company video message, that the company would be going ahead with all of its shows, this was until Vegas was shut down. In Mid April White came out and said that he was going to create Fight Island. Yas Island in Abu Dhabi was the home, and just like that. The Sport world sat up and took notice, and fans had something to look forward to.

 1 #FreeCainValesquez.

This is recent, disturbing, yet vital. In febuary 2022. Cain Valesquez was arrested for the attempted murder of a man who abused his son, and just last month he was sentenced to 15 years in federal prison. I think that this is extremely unfair. He did what any parent would do in that situation. I'm not a parent, but if I had children, and you did this to my child, then the only thing I can say is this. you better get in your car, and drive far away, because if I find you, then you're in trouble.
