He's old so we'll cut him a break. Not really. Legendary boxer Jake LaMotta, now 88, gave this quick quote about mixed martial arts:
You're never going to convince or teach a guy like LaMotta about MMA. Let him believe what he wants. But it is ironic that a guy who had no self-control is opining about savagery or control.

He's old so we'll cut him a break. Not really. Legendary boxer Jake LaMotta, now 88, gave this quick quote about mixed martial arts:
"When they hit you on the floor? That doesn’t make any sense, it’s savage." The now 88 year old Lamotta told Reuters. "It’s out of control, I still think the regular way is the best way."
LaMotta wasn't exactly a wallflower. Pictured is Robert DeNiro, playing LaMotta in Raging Bull and what he "allegedly" did to his wife (NSFW) over the years. Make sure you watch at the 2:10 mark when he seems to mount and hit a downed opponent.
