MMA is not a brain healthy sport. Plus, you can lose an eye. Read the book: "use your brain to change your age" and see for yourself. All that jarring of the brain and hits to your head can cause serious damage. Not at all brain healthy if you ask me.
The kind of guys who fight for a living aren't really the sort of people who have a wide berth of career choices. I mean the world needs roofers I guess.
I dunno... some of them are pretty smart and can get good jobs. I guess it's like football. It's dangerous... but if you want to be something... you have to take the risk.
I know a lot of Marines who have degrees from Phoenix Online University hanging on their wall as well. Could get a good job is different than getting one.
Reminds me of the movie The Internship“We're graduates of the University of Phoenix. That’s like the on-line equivalent of Harvard!”
