It doesn’t matter how fancy things get at the top of the sport — MMA’s regional scene is still a chaotic mess where literally anything can happen. Case in point: At Fire Extreme Fighting’s show at the Kankakee Fair Grounds in Illinois on Saturday night, a 53-year-old spectator named Tim was asked if he’d come in as a replacement for a fighter who had dropped out at the last minute. Being in fair shape for his age, and open to new experiences, Tim agreed, and found himself staring down a 21-year-old opponent just an hour later.

So is the act of keeping your hands up the MMA equivalent of riding a bike with a helmet or wearing your seat belt in your car when you drive to the grocery store? Is it just plain uncool to keep your hands up now?

Damn it I knew I needed to check out local shows! That must have been fun as hell to watch live and freaking Bonner was there to top it off!
Even though anything can happen in a fight that kid must be crushed that he lost to some old dude out of the crowd.
