Its good that someone who is only a fan can try it out and understand how hard it is to be at a competetive level in MMA. Alot of fans look upon MMA as like a cock fight but with people, they pay to see a knockout or broken arm etc, they dont understand the tactics, the skill levels and the fitness levels. They Boo when you get a stalemate on the ground, not realising that to get a stalemate you need two fantastic jiu-jitsu fighters. BJJ is well known as Chess On A Mat! But besides that, the training itself is grueling at the best of times, and only gets harder as each fighter in the gym gets fitter and better, in order to keep up, you also need to get fitter and better... Not Easy!
