RE: Nick Newell is one step closer to a UFC contract
this is fantasy ! Why spur on hope for the disabled ! What are you trying to prove ? Why remove capable fighter when he in real life scenario would get killed for not being able to run fast ! not balance to reach long distances in sprints ! Again you just removed an all-arounded complete athletic to make a mockery of the sport ! WHAT IS NEXT
NO-ARMS VS NO-LEGS !
I don't think he will be too successful at the top level but it's far from making a mockery of the sport. He's a legit fighter with a good record and has wins over other legit fighters.
If he had 2 perfectly formed arms, with his record he'd already likely have had a chance at the UFC so why not when he's got just one?
Spur on hope,..?!? the guy is 14-1 with 9 finishes dude. That's exactly the kind of pro record that might get a look from a promotion like the UFC..
@jclark @agr8buzz you are both 100% right. His record is insanely good and he puts dudes away, and definitively. @keyball you should check out some of his footage man if you haven't already, he's legit man, he could easily have been offered a straight contract and I wouldn't have been surprised really. There is also no rule in MMA as to how many limbs you have, if you can fight you can fight.
