8-Year Old Cagefighters. Guess where it is?

A social club in the north-west of England has been hosting cage fights with children as young as eight.

The Greenlands Labour Club in Preston, Lancashire, hosted a ticket-only fight night that included the eight-year-olds' bout which lasted 10 minutes.

In video footage, one of the boys who is bare-chested, stands over another child who is on the floor of the cage. A man in the front row can be seen urging one of the children to keep his chin up, as another man raises his arms in the air. The smaller child has his arm twisted during the bout.

At one point, one of the children appears to burst into tears, and
medical staff are called in to check them. None of the children are
wearing headgear or padding, but the organisers pointed out that they
were not allowed to kick or punch each other and that it had been "an
extremely good event."

Two 8 year old hurting each other until they gave up with hundreds of lairy pissheads roaring them on, encouraging them not to quit, and one disgusted intellectual watching with tears in his eyes. It was a horrible scene.

Yeah if you put it like that then It does sound bad but If these kids want to be professional MMA fighters then this is the best way for them to learn.

When they're eight? That's just wrong.

Are you not worried that your identity may be found out by the videos on YouTube?

Greenlands is probably one of the roughest areas, kids always hanging about, big fights etc.

My mum's boyfriend was at this event and he didn't mention anything about kids fighting.
