MMA upset

Muscle & Fitness, April, 2009 by Randall Wingert

As an avid reader of M&F for a few years now, I've enjoyed the insightful articles you've published. But as a bodybuilder who also practices jiu-jitsu, I was dismayed to read in the December 2008 Editorial that " ... MMA guys would rather eye-gouge than shake hands." This is a terrible representation; eye-gouging is a WWE stunt that has never been a part of the mixed martial arts. In fact, MMA athletes are some of the most respectful people you'll ever meet. Your normally informed magazine shouldn't allow such an inaccurate misconception to make it to print.
