A Professional MMA Fighter's Life

Today we watched a documentary called The Smashing Machine. It was the story of former UFC champion, Mark Kerr. I learned that a pro fighter has to go through a lot of pain and suffering to be a champion. When the fighter wins any prize money, they have to split it up to pay taxes, agents, managers, trainers, doctors, and so on. They barely have anything left for themselves. The fighter has to sacrifice and train every day and spend less time with their family. That is very difficult.
