One of my favorite fighters (Uriah Faber) got his ass kicked this weekend. He took a couple dozen vicious leg kicks from Brazilian phenom Jose Aldo. Check out his leg the day after!

Not sure what I think about this. I admire this guys determination. Not his handicap keep him from doing what he wants, but if he keeps it up he might get seriously hurt.

After watching this documentary on the guy, I say let him do/try whatever his heart desires.

Good stuff...

A Fighting Chance
(2010) 89 min

Born without arms or legs, Kyle Maynard plans to fight in the MMA cage. He'll change your definition of "disability" forever.
A Fighting Chance is the vivid, character-driven story of Kyle Maynard, a young man born without arms or legs. At 23 years-old, Kyle has already become a nationally ranked wrestler, ESPY award-winner, motivational speaker and bestselling author. However, when Kyle seeks an official Mixed Martial Arts match against an able-bodied fighter- a highly controversial and dangerous goal – Kyle has to face even greater challenges in a world that fails to see him as anything but "disabled."
Whether fighting in the MMA cage or extending his "No Excuses" philosophy to wounded military veterans, Kyle Maynard shows what life can be like when every day is a battle. Ask yourself: what is a disability? What is normal?

"When people look at some one else and look at them as inferior, because of some type of physical challenge, I think that is an inherent disability." - Kyle Maynard
