PhatMack19 Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 What do you guys think about this? I know kids start wrestling and karate at a young age, is this much different?http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/daily-take/201109/kids-young-eight-cage-fighting-england
OldSkool97 Posted September 23, 2011 Report Posted September 23, 2011 The video mentioned that they cant kick or punch. In that case i dont see a problem with it. Pretty much just wrestling in an octagon if you ask me.
mat Posted September 25, 2011 Report Posted September 25, 2011 The stigma of cage fighting will draw more critisism than boxing, wrestling or karate however I could potentially see some serious injuries with submissions.
OldSkool97 Posted September 26, 2011 Report Posted September 26, 2011 I agree totaly with what you said. If they were to do away with the octagon that these kids 'fight" in, you may as well take away wrestling from them as well. Only difference between the video and actual wrestling is where it takes place. Another link would be kids playing football. There are injury risks there too, just something that you have to be willing to deal with if it were to happen.
