This is such nonsense. MMA is safer than most sports because:

1. There are basic rules for safety;
2. They stop the fight long before any serious damage is done.
3. Many figths end with non-injurious submission holds

This is more nonsense from the nanny state looking to keep boxing alive which is more dangerous than MMA, Hockey, or Football.

So far there has not been one death in MMA.

So far there has not been one death in MMA.

True that, but I do have to say I remember getting a chuckle out of Tank Abbott putting straight-arming his fist through a guy's face and giving him a stinger. Tank, in his usual display of sportsmanship gleefully imitated his opponent's spastic movements!
