* I like the sport and even though it is violent, so are a
lot of other sports. Carl T
* Count me in, the more violent the
better. I may be a female, but seeing strong men beat each other
is a real sport. Debbie Forster
* Tell them to go hug a baby harp
seal. Don Bartley
* No I would not attend one
of these events. I am far from being a prude about such things and enjoy
a good boxing match, however, these matches go beyond acceptable levels
of contact. I do not enjoy watching 2 people literally trying to beat
each other to death while an audience screams for more blood. Ban these
events? That in its' self would be a mistake because then they would be
held illegally and secretively with no rules or regulations regulating
the sport to keep it semi-humane. Kathleen French
* I do not appreciate any one
beating another one for the sake of money, or pleasing the crowd. Allen
Doxtator
* Yes I would attend. If
people are willing to get in a ring and beat each other I think it
should be completely legal. For those who want it banned, they should be
banned from the area. First off, Las Vegas is the adult playground. If
adults want to enjoy this type of entertainment, so be it. I would
watch. I think it would be great fun. My wife on the other hand, would
most likely choose not to watch, but she wouldn't mind if I did. Don't
ban it. Ban the people who want it banned. That, I think, would be a
much better choice. Doug Barnett
* No thanks, this is not for
me and going as far as calling it a sport, that is a joke. Next
thing you know we will call the lions and Christians a sporting event in
Roman times. This is nothing more than television going past the
boundaries of good quality shows and delivering sensationalism to
increase their ratings. Only thing worse than this is the news on
television, now that is a bias joke that is more deadly than K1
fighting. William T. CA
* I would not attend such an
event, however, I do not believe that it should be banned. As long as
all participants are consenting adults and no animals or children are
harmed it is the right of those interested individuals to participate in
these sports. I do not believe in them but it is a "free" country where
each of us has the right to pursue our own interests, something which
too many people in this country seem to have forgotten! Heather
