New Sport Toss Up: Kick-Boxing Soccer Or Medieval MMA? Who You Got?

So I was originally going to just blog about this wacked-out "sport" I came across on twitter, but then after clicking on the video and stumbling another "new sport" people were posting beneath it, it turned into a longer blog. 

I didn't think something would be more messed up than letting grown men, who are jacked as fuck, (skins), team kickbox against boys (shirts) in headgear, and call it soccer. 

But then I found "medieval MMA". 

And I gotta be honest. I think I'm in love. 

It's technically called "Armored MMA", or "AMMA", but you get the point. 

They somehow only have like 1200 Twitter followers and a handful of videos. But if they had more, I could watch hours of this stuff. 

I am a fucking sucker for Medieval Times (we have one not far from Chicago), and it's always the best time. But there let little kids and families go to that (because it's obviously for families and all ages). But this is like Medieval Times if all bets were off. And if it wasn't scripted and they guys were legit trying to fight to the death.

Plus, their entrances are electric. 

This shit is so real even the refs wear protection, and carry protection. 

I fucking HAVE to see this live and in person. I want dibs on this and want to become the Robbie Foxx of Medieval MMA because this is the best shit I've seen in a long time. The viciousness. The prestige! It has it all. Sign me the fuck up and let's dance… with swords. Keep your blades sharp, and your wits sharper.

p.s. - here were two other "sports" people posted in the thread.  "Phone Booth Boxing"
