How are mma fighters so resistant to being attacked?

1.50K views

Whenever I watch ufc or ofc, I notice the fighters are flooded with so much impact to their bodies. How are they so durable tho? I get they do conditioning. I also do body conditioning because I do mma too. But whenever I spar someone it hurts so much after. In the moment, my adrenaline deals with it but afterwards everything hurts so much. Do they also feel this?

You have to understand that the ufc is the pinnacle of the sport, so just as in the nba its not like you turn black tall and athletic after years of training basketball, a certain genetic type of human excells in fighting, so these guys that you see are not regular humans, these are mostly the genetic freaks. You can sometimes see the contrast when some fighters make it to the pinnacle mostly on superior skill and they still get Ko’d “relatively easy” take a ryan hall as a recent example and more on topic of you check more behind the scenes stuff, most “small” injuries don’t get discussed but many fighters will break bones, hands, have tears, concussions and much more on a regular night.
