There will still be plenty of broke parents who will want to give their children that one shot at stardom. Take a look at backgrounds of fighters in boxing and MMA. These sports are explicitly about hurting the other person and people still volunteer to participate.
- mindcrime 10y agoFWIW, MMA is likely much less brutal than boxing or football. Lighter gloves provide less hand protection, and many fights end in a submission instead of a knockout. And assuming you tap out appropriately, there's no serious injury from a knee bar, or a heel hook, or even a rear naked choke.
