There is always an MMA fighter involved in a Trump story...always

I can't think of another sport that intersects with the American Right, especially Trump's branch, as much as MMA does.

Hi KZ (hope that's okay), may I ask, why do you think that overlap is? I totally get you may not have an answer at the ready. I thought it might be bc BJJ/Wrasslin, has always leaned very reich wing?

Thanks for the investigative reporting here. I had watched a lot of the Jan 6 Committee hearings and what happened to Ms Freeman and her daughter is just plain insane and cruel. Sad to hear of yet another MMA fighter throwing in with the white Christian fascist agenda of MAGA. Truly sad how much the UFC and MMA fighters gravitate towards all of that.
