I was having an interesting discussion
on the issue of disabled people taking part in MMA and boxing the other day. As
you may be aware there are plans to have wheelchair bound fighters compete in
both disciplines.
The Wheeled Warriors organisation wants
to bring the concept to both the cage and ring next year. But it has met with
opposition in some areas. Some people are more than a little uncomfortable that
two guys in wheelchairs will be slugging it out in front of cheering crowds.
Yes, I can see that it might make some
feel uncomfortable, some squeamish and some think it’s immoral...
