Fighting ‘good for society’s health’

In a clip from the documentary The Hurt Business: A Deeper Look at MMA, Rousey says more Mixed Martial Arts would mean less violence in the world.

[MMA] really is the most responsible outlet for (aggression). It’s a human instinct to fight. If you try to suppress it entirely, and put everyone in a bubble-wrapped society, that’s when people start going nuts and shooting movie theaters. If any of those people that had all of that aggression built up in them had some sort of outlet, I think that we’d have a lot more societal health because of it…[MMA is] a puzzle to be solved. It’s more mental and tactical than anything else. I think it’s the purest, most beautiful sport in the world.
