Good. I don't understand how anyone working in any medical capacity can support this brutal sport.

How very inlightened of them. I mean I'm glad, but they should have never aired "matches".

I never understood the attraction of a sport where part of the goal is to injure the opponent. Lots of people (including Muhammad Ali) have suffered brain damage from this sport.
