Thanked: 31either way you look at it part or all of your body is gonna get worked over pretty good
most fights do go by submission but the ones that get won by KO get beat pretty bad chuck doesnt fight any more but when he did he was one of the hardest strikers in the sport....i would never want to take one on the chin from that guy wake up with all your front teeth in the floor of the octogon

Well, you see it says it right there in black and white for all to see "all men are created equal". So of course if someone has a bad outcome it's his or her fault because he or she is not using the potential they have and at the same time because we are all created equal in order to succeed in life you must crush and destroy your competition or they will do it to you.
Right? Isn't that how it is?No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero

...Also because most educational institutions no longer function in such a way as to give an accurate assessment of a person's capability.
There's one for ya. A competition with flawed rules of engagement automatically makes the competition unfair - we try to avoid this in sports, but we're still happy to perpetuate it in schools. Probably because No Child Left Behind has put the fear of tenure into teachers who are no longer free to teach.

Until some point that is true. Until some point that is also a part of the human nature. We are still naked monkeys. This would lead us deep into philosophy and maybe too far from the topic.
Luckily in a civilized societies there are laws and regulations to make limits to such behavior. To protect those who cannot protect themselves against the strong. To give everyone equal changes to start their competition, whatever that might be. Some societies have more rules than others and some have them too much.
Every time i hear someone yelling about freedoms and regulations i think they should go and check some ideal place like Somalia. Been there seen that. How it is to live (and die) with very weak government, no free public services and not too much regulations to limit those who are strong. Home of the strong and fittest. Looked more like a hell on earth to me.'That is what i do. I drink and i know things'
