Muhammad Ali Was A More Impressive Man Than A Boxer -Vox has been added as a related post - related requested by bareboards2.

Thank you for your service to your country, Muhummad Ali.

I remember watching an aging Ali being presented with the BBC Sports Personality of the Century award back in 2000. The Parkinson's was taking his toll and he struggled to accept the award and speak, but even then there were moments of that old Ali brilliance as he graciously accepted the award and said...

"Thank you. I think I'm gonna make a comeback"

RIP Ali, you were a goddamn legend.

How is this different to any other social pressure pushing bullshit in other countries (US, Aus, UK).

Vocal people apply pressure to change the status quo. Look at the treatment of integrated and peaceful Muslims around the world at the moment...

It's not the Chinese gov. you have to worry about, it's Facebook, Google etc... Where the fuck do people think this evil ass data mining and social pressure started? Monetising your preferences and forcing people to bow to social (peer) pressure or face shaming. Tencent and Ali Baba are the real motivators behind this and even if China went full capitalist tomorrow, those companies would continue to promote this system and it would still work in exactly the same way.

The real horror is that we look at China and think that they are getting the short end of the stick. We need to look at ourselves. We're not free, we're consumers. We accumulate stuff and we think that equates to having choice. China is just following the sterling example set by others...

I think there's a lot of criticism of 'that artist' for various reasons, and I've seen a lot of underground rappers call him out for variously A) not being a good rapper, B) offering watered down social criticism that makes white middle class feel societally responsible, and C) for being very successful without giving any cred to his influences and predecessors.

I don't really care too much about that though - I just love how brother Ali manages to diss him while never mentioning his name... but rhyming his name in nearly every line.

The reason MMA fights are more likely ending with getting choked out than having your limbs broken is quite simple. If you are the guy who breaks everybodys shit, nobody will want to fight you anymore because broken bones take you out of fighting (the thing you do to make money), training (the thing that allows to compete on such a level in the first place) and the enjoyments of life (ever tried to masturbate with two broken hands?) for weeks. Weeks or erven months.
Nobody will book you or allow you in their competitions anymore because 30 second fights aren't that interesting (which is why proffesional boxing matches rarely turn out to be like Muhammad Ali vs random guy from the audience), getting qualified and equal fighters as opponents becomes next to impossible (see above) and "liability" would be the word promoters mutter in their sleep while having nightmare about faceless lawyers.
MMA isn't the Kumite from Bloodsport. MMA matches are a business and their cash cows are their fighters otherwise it would be just bum fights. You can't milk a cow with a broken udder. But you can choke its nipples until the milk flows, you just gotta have the right technique.
