The following is an excerpt from an interview with everyone's favorite drunken babbler from HBO boxing events, Larry Merchant. Merchant gives his opinion of MMA during an interview with SoCal Sports Observed:
LAO: What's your view of mixed martial arts?
LM: It's a car-crash movie. It's what I call “honest wrestling,” as opposed to staged wrestling, for normal-sized white guys. They have very good hype and marketing. We'll see whether it's the next evolution of hand-to-hand combat or whether it's a fad that will go.
Others have said worse.
