Some sports simply dont make sense, like boxing. They are no sports. Just acceptable excuses to pointlessly waste lives.

Really, really sad. Rest In Peace.

*OP, the fight didn't take place in Canada. He went to Michigan to fight.

Tusky44: Mixed martial arts like boxing is a show put up by barbaric animals for barbarians.

The real martial art doesn't involve competition. It is a *self defense* art with bare hands. Senseis don't show off until you attack them. One KIAI is all that is needed to fend off and startle the aggressor.

RIP boy.

BLAME THE REFREEE INSTEAD FORM THE MOMENT HE COULDNT DEFEND HIMSELF THAT FIGHT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE STOPPED.

Apparently the fight was unregulated!

Oh! This is the most beautiful thing i've ever seen in my life. i almost cummmm in my shorts. Oh, what a beauty! Look at that perfectly timed uppercut and cross combination. He did it like it ain't a thing. Oh blessed! My heart is in the throes of orgasmmmm! i think i'm in love! He first missed out on the poor jab of his opponent, then went in a semi-squat, concentrating all his power into the force and accuracy of the uppercut (hardest punch to deliver) and he finished it off with a super cross that landed flush on the fainting man... i'm gay for this nigga!
You must be sick upstairs.

35 is too old for such a sport. You are fighting younger, faster and stronger guys. At 30, one should retire from such a sport. RIP to the guy. What a way to die. cry
