I could not disagree more with the opinions being expressed by your show regarding mixed martial arts (Ultimate Fighting). Unlike boxing, MMA is an art form that is well regulated, and takes the safety of it's combatants very seriously. Unfortunately for it's detractors, MMA will be around for a long time. Boxing, pro hockey, and the WNBA will be gone long before MMA which is on the verge of a meteoric rise in popularity.
