Sam Vasquez was the unacceptable risk Michael. He leaves a spouse and a son. And although most involved in the MMA's will argue that he had a pre-existing condition and his death was a fluke, the fight will go on. Until the next Sam Vasquez.

I agree the death is tragic. But are we saying that a death should mean the demise of the sport? And if so why does that not hold true for every other sport that causes death - aikido included. Apples for apples remember?
And incidentally Vasquuez's wife is on record as saying she does not blame the sport and does not believe her husband would either...
