I doubt you'd see ol' Georgie boy anywhere near the front line. ;-) Ok, I'll call a truce on any political wrangling.

The Briggs fight was bad. I'll admit. I'm not saying that boxing can't do more, but I am saying that boxing has tried (or has been forced) to make the sport as safe as possible - I don't see that MMA is doing the same.

<edit> and look at the ol' Texas boy in my avatar. Yeeha!

i think ufc has helped make it safer with no head butts or stamping on downed oponents or kicks to the head when opponent down
