Finally, folks. The sport of mixed martial arts is about to be legalized in Ontario. About time, isn’t it Dalton McGuinty? I’ll let you in on a little secret here. People. Like. Fighting. The sport has become ridiculously popular all over the world lately, especially in Ontario. And why not? Fighting is the ultimate form of competition, dating back to pretty damn early in time.

And let’s not get into the safety issue of MMA. Both professional boxing and kickboxing are legalized in Ontario already. Add in wrestling and ju-jitsu, and you have yourself an MMA fight. There is not much difference.
Now here’s a little bit of shock value for you readers. I’ll name three sports for you right now that report more injuries and deaths per year than mixed martial arts; Golf, cheerleading, and lawn bowling. http://www.sportingo.com/all-sports/a10042_ten-most-dangerous-sports-world. Hey, don’t laugh. Even if you’re thinking up creative headlines such as, “Lawn bowling accident strikes again.” Maybe that was just me. All puns aside, mixed martial arts are in Ontario to stay. That means no longer being forced to just watch it on a big screen at your Boston Pizza, no matter how good those nachos are. We can now go ringside and get our own taste of the action. I’ll see ya at the fights.
