Joe Rogan On Fighting vs. Other Sports (Football, Basketball, etc.)

I have to agree with Joe. Fighting is much more interesting to watch because it gets to the heart of the issue (i.e. direct competition among individual egos). Fighting has less "bullshit" attached to it, and less excuses can be made from an opponent after a defeat (which can be more damaging to the losers ego). Many people oppose fighting because of its "violent nature", but it's not like people are dying from competing in fight-sports (except for a few poorly regulated cases). I suppose it all boils down to how it is interpreted. Some may take discipline away from watching/ participating in fighting sports, others may take away violence and aggression.
