RE: Jason "Mayhem" Miller Faces Four Years in Prison

Thanks so much I agree 100%. The UFC wanted to be better than Boxing but they did what Boxing did and made the fighters independent contractors so they could dispose of them at will. I wish someone would take this to court as the Labor Laws on independent contractors get stricter and stricter to prevent this kind of abuse.

    Thanks for acknowledging, It’s a difficult subject to talk about. This video illustrates my feelings very well. Especially one of the very last sentiments

    I have a lot of personal experience caring for my dad who was dementia for the last 10 years, he’s only 71. Can only imagine what it’s like to have a professional athlete as a father & see him go through dementia at an even younger age. It is the families of these athletes that end up doing the heaviest lifting.
