Well, I'm confused. It's been said that most sports turn boys into men. This, I think, is especially true of my favorite, boxing. But now we have the emergence of what is called extreme fighting which turns men into animals. What is sporting or aesthetic about a fighter sitting atop and continuing savagely to beat his helpless opponent? Reminds me of cockfighting finally outlawed only a month or so ago in South Louisiana. Maybe extreme fighting, since it's only a "sport," could be introduced as an acceptable substitute for, say, the disputed "torture" of waterboarding.
