MMA is not "fixed". They are pre-arranged matches, meaning a set time and set opponents, with rules, a ring, and a ref. That is a completely different situation than an anything goes self-defense scenario.

B. Yes, Timmy, even MMA can be "fixed". For reference, see some of the one handed MMA fighters fights and tell me his two handed opponents didn't feel bad and intentionally not take advantage of his disability the same way they would kick a non-amputee in the leg over and over and over again if they knew his knee was hurt.

I'm not saying ALL MMA is fixed, but it's entertainment first - sports second or third after profits.

All pro sports, especially when betting is involved, eventually become fixed.
