Congrats PS.
Now on the UFC tip for Mr P. UFC/MMA has been proven to be safer than boxing. In boxing, you get a concussion and then repeated head trauma. You get beaten so silly you can't stand up and then get give around twelve seconds to recover before you get smashed in the head again. In MMA you get hit a lot less over the course of a fight and if you can't defend yourself (a knockdown in boxing) the fight gets stopped. Medical journals and research confirm it's safer.
Generally speaking, guys at gyms tend to be pretty humble too. Guys with ego's get frustrated with little guys dicking them in the gym and give up - they're the sort that cause trouble down your town centre. And everyone who does it professionally is just that, a professional. It's their job, they aren't gonna jeopardise it by getting into scraps over a few pints (if they even drink, few do).
Lee Murray exempt, but he's a bit unique (securitas robbery and all that)
Also, it's an awesome sport to watch. Tonights card is gonna be good (James Tony embarrassment aside)
