A New Generation of Athlete

I almost think that a new era of champions in the UFC is being ushered in by Anderson Silva and GSP. A seemingly unbeatable champion with a long title run to his name. The sport has grown and fighters are starting at younger and younger ages and using more advanced training methods that wil only bring the level of competition to such a level that even the ladder there climbing is an accomplishment in its self. Guys are starting so young that we now see some of the best fighters in the world in Jon Jones, Jose Aldo, Cain Velasquez, JDS or Phil Davis just to name a few starting there careers with some big wins and amazing streaks. What about in 5 years when the 10 year old kid who's just picking up the sport explodes into MMA or Steveo Paulin gets another 10 years of experience in and starts changing the game forever. MMA has come a long way since the man with one glove stepped into the UFC or since the day Tank Abbott's flat footed hay makers made him one of the most dangerous men on the planet and its still growing. I see a bright future for this sport as it grows in our society and the hearts of competetors.
