>>3419939>what other sports are /pol/ approved?MMA is for dumb chimps.
The effects of even one punch to the head and one knockout likely have lifelong consequences. They're discovering more and more CTE even in young athletes. The more you get hit in the head, the worse off you are, and permanently. MMA, football, rugby, all major traumatic contact sports is for people with nothing to lose in the brains department.
Learn a martial art, learn to defend yourself but for fucks sake don't ever get hit in the head on purpose.
Self defense should start with a gun, not your fists. Get a CCW and learn how to shoot.
