Icon1 John McCain

Senator Jogn McCain is running for president next term and wants to ban all MMA in America. Sayin it is a "death sport". McCain being an ex-boxer was at a boxing match and saw a man get hit and killed inside the boxing ring, when asked if he still stands by his decision and all the negative things he had said about MMA, even though someone just died inside the boxing ring, and whats the difference he replied yes I still stand by it and if you do not know the difference I'm not telling you and blah blah blah.

So no McCain for president.

I was pretty sure that McCain was no longer against MMA because of the rules that have been put in place.

With all the other issues facing the nation, I very seriously doubt McCain has time to take-on MMA again. That's hardly a platform issue.

Basically all the MMA noobs automatically think it's worse than boxing because anything goes in MMA. It's just plain ignorance and people not giving it a fair chance.

Hes not going to ban MMA. I would rather have anyone (except Jimmy Carter) as president instead of Hillary, so hopefully she won't run. MMA is here to stay, dont worry guys.
