Summary |
For martial arts fighters, a post fight trip to the ER is just another day at the office. A sport not for the weak, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a full contact combat sport that includes martial arts, striking, and grappling both standing and on the ground. MMA style fighting came to the US in 1993, but has been practiced and developed in parts of Europe and Asia since the early 1900's. What does it take to become a champion? What are the pressures in putting your career and life on the line for every fight? Andrew Jenks is about to find out. (From the US) (Documentary) (PG) **New Episode** |
