It's good for their credibility that they also want to ban boxing, if they want to ban MMA. But if they are going to quote John McCaine and pretend that the UFC still have the rules from 1993, they should just keep their mouths shut.
And joint injuries and fractures? Any physical activity can result in that, and I don't know about England, but over here health authorities are desperately trying to get kids to do some exercising because they are getting fatter all the time. Should we tell the children to stay in front of the TV, so that they won't risk injuries?
