Aggressive sports - what is next?

MMA - Mix Martial Arts - a new fastly growing kind of sport. People almost kill each other in the cage. Blood, broken bones, the faces full of frustration and pain. These all is what MMA is about, though even here is also the great money is involved. But what makes people risk their health and even life on the ring? I think that there is something about people's emotions and psychology, too.

To my mind, the MMA fighters look for some new feelings when they go to fight in the cage. They know that there is the real danger ahead - and this only makes them continue. Why? Just because they want to check what is the level of their strength. In most cases they simply want to prove themselves something really important - they want to prove themselves that they are the best and can control the situation - if not in their real life, than at least on the ring.

The other reason for the MMA fighters to become such, is their aggression and anger which is multiplied on some inner feeling of dissatisfaction - this is what really leads anyone to showing all these feelings in the cage: when there is the only other human being in front of you, and he is your enemy: you are in the same conditions - this gives you the confidence - and the only thing left - is to fight. Fight until your victory, or at least fight with the greatest devotion, to prevent the disappointment in yourself.

So, if such an aggressive sport as MMA is becoming more and more popular now - what is going to be next? Probably, people will invent the sport in which other people will become the alive targets for shooting? Or they may have to swim away from the sharks in a huge tank? And all the spectators will applause, standing, and watching the loser of the game dying, just as today they do, when see the first blood on the ring? who knows for sure, what is going to happen in just a decade, just a year. All in all, think over it. And make Your own decision: if you want to cheer for the death; if You want to become a victim of the next cruel game the humankind may create for fun, or if You want to live in peace and harmony with the surrounding world and with each other.
