To be calling MMA cockfighting is pretty ignorant. I also think it is ridiculous to suggest they're not quality athletes. MMA is a tough sport, so to get to the top requires a high level of skill. Fury wouldn't last very long in a cage. I'll admit I'm exaggerating with the length, but I wouldn't be stunned if Cain stopped him in a Boxing fight.
I didn't call MMA in general a cockfight, although it certainly can be. I was thinking specifically of the fight last weeked between Cain and Junior. That was shit to watch in large part, Dos Santos was completely out of gas unable to fight back and just getting hit while turtling on the ground for much of the fight, not my cup of tea. And to suggest Cain could beat anyone who only boxes for a living at a high level is purely hypocritical given that you accuse me of being ignorant.
