What if someone died in ufc




















Terrible news regarding Joao Carvalho. The UFC is the biggest MMA organization, so it has invested a lot of money into making sure that nobody dies fighting in the ring. As a result, Grunge reported that many people have died after fighting in a MMA bout. Many of these fights were amateur fights, but others were professional fights. Another notable death was that of Rondel Clark, a healthy year-old who died after a knockout loss. Weight cuts are common in the UFC, and almost every fighter cuts weight to meet the weight limits.

Unlike boxing, where there are tons of weight classes available, the UFC only has eight weight classes for men and four weight classes for women. So once a fighter steps outside the bounds of the predefined set of rules. They have effectively opened themselves up to whatever punishment deemed necessary under the law, based on what had occurred. And down through the years, there have been several prosecutions in combat sports for illegal activity.

Including fighters and trainers tampering with the gloves before a boxing fight. Or low blows or eyes gouges which were sometimes not seen by the referee. And while there have been several deaths in MMA. There have not been any prosecutions for the fighters involved. As there was no illegal activity involved in the match and the fighter succumbed to the injuries they received during a sanctioned bout. If however, the fighter had used some illegal strikes like a twelve to six elbow, which is banned in the UFC.

Or a kick to the downed opponent which is also banned in the UFC. The fighter involved would then be liable for the results of their illegal actions. The short answer to this is no.

The Ultimate Fighting Championships has not experienced the death of any of its competitors. Either during or after a fight as a result of damage taken during the bout. This does not mean that there are not examples of fighters displaying signs of neurological issues. From the extensive and repeated blows to the head taken during their career.

Which at a later point can lead to a shortened lifespan. Who now suffers from a debilitating condition called CTE Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy , leading to a far lower quality of life. Something we see all too often from former fighters in almost all combat sports. But in terms of a fatality, this has not occurred in the UFC. His kidneys started failing when he was in Boston. His body began to deteriorate and he ultimately died of rhabdomyolysis, a condition that causes a rapid breakdown of the skeletal and muscular tissue.

His fight started off great, with Fernandes winning the first two rounds, before ultimately going down in the third round after a combination of punches. The referee halted the match and Fernandes lost, but that is when it all began.

The young fighter started to seize and was rushed into hospital, where he died at p. There is a word that Fernandes was on drugs during the fight he participated in a local program that helped drug addicts overcome their addiction through martial arts , but that was never confirmed; he passed all the blood tests before the match. The number for these, although a bit higher nine , is still small compared to other combat sports. Unsanctioned fights are always a risky undertaking and that was a lesson teenager Alfredo Castro Herrera had to learn the hard way.

Rodrigues knocked Herrera out during the match and the year-old died soon after. The cause of death was never publicly revealed. After taking several shots to the head, Dedge tapped out and lost the match.

He initially held his stance, but soon collapsed and was taken into surgery in Kiev. He had severe brain trauma, although the term was never specified. Rumors exist that Dedge passed out during a training session just before his fight and that he had had a pre-existing medical condition, but neither has been confirmed up to this day.

Not much is known about the year-old Korean whose family name was Lee. The organization was so bad that no medical exams were made before the fight. He was knocked out by an unknown opponent and soon collapsed, dying not long after the match. American Mittelmeier went to Bolivia to participate in an unsanctioned MMA bout; he was just 20 years old.

Mittelmeier managed to leg lock his opponent, but the latter illegally kicked him in the head with his foot, knocking him out in the process. A few seconds later, Mittelmeier collapsed. It was later determined that he has severe a severe cerebral hemorrhage that sent him into a coma, from which he never recovered. The organization was so horrible that, reportedly, there were no medics standing by so it took a while before he eventually went to a hospital.

He tapped out during his fight and all seemed well with the young fighter. Jensen calmly watched the two fights following his, but he collapsed as he went into his locker room. He was taken into hospital, where he died a week later from a subdural hemorrhage. The Nigerian appeared fine, but he stopped and sat down on his way to the dressing room; he said he was exhausted.

Elochukwu soon fell down from the chair he was in and it was clear to everyone that he had collapsed. The ER was supposedly called, but since it came around 40 minutes after Elochukwu fell, there are doubts whether the organizers called the medics immediately.

People from the crowd tried to give him CPR, but without success.
