Today I had a disturbing run at the gym. I've seen some things that have probably scarred me for life (let's chalk that up to gratuitous nudity in the locker room), but today I watched men beat the living sh!t out of each other on UFC TV.
I was unfortunate enough to choose a treadmill in front of the tv showing UFC Raw. By the time I noticed what was on in front of me, I had already committed and wasn't going to switch (there were no other open treadmills anyway). I basically watched several pairs of men fight to the death, on a mat covered with other people's blood. It was awful.
When I was in college, I took kickboxing classes at Chuck Liddell's gym. This was before he was a big UFC champion and while he never taught a class, he was always there watching (probably making fun of how terrible I was at it). At that time, I didn't know how violent the sport was!
