Jesse The Body Ventura on Mixed Martial Arts

Earlier today Jessy "The Body" Ventura was on the show of Larry King Live on CNN and this is what he had to say about Mixed Martial Arts:

- Speaks highly of the sport, fighters, and officials
- Thinks MMA is safer than boxing
- Liked the Lesnar fight, disliked Brock's actions after the fight
- Feels MMA is the "truest" form of hand to hand combat
- Thinks that the big PPV numbers and media coverage around UFC 100 is proof that the sport is gaining acceptance in the general public
- Jesse would not have tried MMA when he was younger; his hand to hand combat instructor in the SEALS told him "when you have a machine gun, no one should get that close."
