Could you hurt a man for money?

Question

With your skills and martial arts training, could you go into a competition like the ufc and pound a guys face in with elbows for money? I admier these men who fight, because they have a lot to teach about courage, spirit, discipline, and skill, but I personally could not bring myself to severely hurt another man for profit. Could you hurt a man for money and fame?

Answer 1

No, not for money of fame. However, if he were to attack me, someone I love, or someone else who could not defend themselves, then I would have no problem putting a serious hurt on him that he would never forget!

Answer 2

I could do it for fun if I was a man! My husband and I UFC Style fight with each other. Well, he pretty much lets me pound on him and try to put him in a rear naked choke then he grabs me and puts me in an arm bar in about half a second! I'm 110 lb he's 210 lb not exactly a fair fight, but lots of fun trying! Every once in a while I get a wicked elbow in on him!!

Answer 3

Yes, Yes I could it's a sport if that's what your bread and butter is then why not do it....People fight for dumb reasons all the time so I would rather fight for money and fame in a controlled enviroment with medical staff on hand the ref's are really good at calling fights so I would think it would be alright

Answer 4

Yeah I could.

But you gotta remember, this is one of the ways these guys make a living and how they get there by beating their opponents.

and being a champion or a winner is being at the top of your game, but it all comes down to strategy and technique to win.

I did my share of competitions and tournaments and won and yes I too hurt or injured my opponents in the process, but you or anyone else can and will get hurt in ANY sport whether its competitive or not.

Life is a competitive sport as well as a contact sport, so you do what you do to get through it.

but the important thing is to not be cocky or rub it in your opponents face if you win, because good sportsmanship is the greater aspect of winning, and enjoying the product of the hard work and effort you spent to get there.

Answer 5

I could but I wouldn't.
I do not want to be a cage fighter. I enjoy my corporate job much more (although there ARE days...).
I believe you are questioning the ethics of the fighters. My belief is that as long as all parties are willing participants...then let's get it on!

Someone had a very insightful comment comparing the ethics of fighting with the ethics of hunting and fishing. Two humans who wanting to fight is way more ethical than hurting an innocent animal.

Answer 6

I would, not for the money or really the fame, but because you know what you are getting into when you sign up. If you're a scary man then, you'll be scary when you enter the cage. I have no remorse, or sympathy if you enter. You know the risks...

Answer 7

I only use my skills in a life or death situation, I would never enter a competition to fight for money, that is just greedy!

Answer 8

Would, could, did.

I used to fight professionally for just over 12 years, full contact, empty hand and live weapons....

also did some frelance stuff for a time....still do..doesn't matter who I work for, or what I do, or why I'm dong it...only that they meet my terms....

Answer 9

Yes I have done it.

Like as someone else here (dogpreacher) say. Many people here love to claim they're peaceful and kind person. Yet they would go into home of other animals and blows them away with a bullet as they drink, snatch fish out of water with hook, and trap them for name of sport. At least the person who is in ring or cage know I'm coming and they have a chance to back out.

So... It's not nearly as bad as hunting or fishing.

Answer 10

The seize 22 situation, extremely, is the stereotyping of gender roles for the era of our species. There are some (small, and shrinking widely used) inherent ameliorations between the sexes. Being smart animals, we can conquer any of those ameliorations that we favor to with the help of being outspoken and getting help the position that's necessary. Sexism is lots of the time behavioral, fortunately. lots of the "weak vs. robust" arguments can boil right down to at least one aspect: word. in case you artwork and tone muscle mass, no count number what gender you're, you get superior. idea of weak spot is regardless of that's, regrettably, inspite of this innate, discovered through 1000s of thousands of years of evolution, even stretching back pre-human, should you ascribe to the clinical view of actuality. All animals comprehend weak spot in diverse animals as a widespread portion of their survival. If that you may want to progression off of yet another creature, diminishing its utilization of sources, even as recuperating your own, why would ought to you no longer take features? that's with the aid of the actual actuality of this instinct that now we now do not have to any extent further yet eradicated that aspects us to work out a weak spot of one better male and take advantage, aspect out, or ridicule it. Getting hit and whining about it would want to (supposedly) aspect out a weak spot and also enable features acquaintances to work out that you're flawed. In sophisticated society, i might want to wish that people's minds might want to win out over pithy, insignificant and beside the point impulses, notwithstanding as a lot as now, we are seeing little boost. i might want to also wish that someone, male or female, might want to record any abuse in any respect to the acceptable authorities.
