53 Year Old VS 21 Year Old: As Amateur As Cage Fighting Gets

So here's the story as we understand it: Apparently, during what had to be a super tiny, local MMA event, a completely untrained, 53-year-old man was approached with the opportunity to fight in the one of the nights events. He said yes.

His opponent? A 21-year-old (probably untrained?) fighter. What happens next will be making the internet rounds for quite some time. And by that we mean at least for the rest of the week.

Quick Warning: This is an amateur video taken from a small-venue fight, not a public broadcast. There are a couple of brief instances of vulgar language which may be inappropriate for younger viewers. You have been warned.

So what do you think? Does something like this cast a negative light on the mixed martial arts sport or does it provide a shot in the arm for a sport that may have become too focused on the professional tier of fighters, forgetting about the exciting amateur possibilities out there?
