Mark's mma career

At the end of the movie it shows Mark about to enter the cage for an mma fight. Of course the movie ends before the fight starts. So my curiosity got the best of me and I googled him to see how he did in his mma career. Turns out he only had one fight which he won by to. The crazy thing for me anyway is it was at ufc 9. I wonder why he never fought after that.

b/c mma is gay --- every fight ends with two almost naked guys trying to make as much skin contact as possible

Yeah that doesn't happen in wrestling.

It was a conflict of coaching wresling as UFC at the time was unsanctioned in most states and viewed poorly by the general public. It wasnt till after the Ultimate Fighter was broadcast, rules were codified and Zuffa pumped their millions of dollars into the legitimatized sport it currently is.
