MMA: The Positives and Negatives of The Sport with Jake Shannon

There is nothing hotter than the UFC right now. Grown men and women fighting until one is knocked out or give up. For decades, boxing has been in the spotlight, and now, Mixed Martial Arts combines all facets of fighting into one.

The numbers of younger men and women training in MMA is growing.

With the UFC once again pushing for legalization of their sport in the state of New York, and the White House following through after up on an interesting and successful summit on concussion and youth sports, the issue has never been more heatedly discussed.

Best-selling author, MMA expert and founder of Scientific Wrestling Jake Shannon has been training potential MMA stars with his own breed of Catch-As-Catch-Can wrestling for years, and has a lot to say on the issue.
