I understand the mixed feelings. Seeing a real bloody MMA contest makes me a bit squeamish, seeing a woman get real bloddied up bothers me on a different level for no rational reason.

It seems as though he was asked a question, and he answered it.

I kind of doubt he went and tracked this camera guy down just so he could pop off about not liking women's MMA.

It is Hughes though, so for some people the above is probably their exact perception of how things went down. That second post of this thread shows that off pretty good.

The stuff Dana swept under the rug for him, I assume, were some vague allegations that swept Sherdog about raping somebody, though those seemed to have even less basis then the Miletich thing.

Geez, that Hughes must be some character. I read the dust jacket from his book, he seemed like a good dude.

Would you like three guesses as to where Mr. VonDoom came to us from? I'll even let the first two not count.

I thought on sherdog, there was an age limit of 16. Does that mean VonDoom is that young?

Nobody is trying to stop you. All I (or Hughes, apparently) said was that he didn't enjoy watching it, and if he was asked to vote (which he isn't) he would vote against the UFC bringing it.

I agree, I have seen several exciting female fights but I still do not really like seeing women get beat up. I will say that despite not like watching it I would not vote against them having the ability to fight, that is if I actually had a vote that was worth anything.
