    He is impressive indeed!

    But being undefeated only in some states of USA shouldn't produced the title "MMA prodigy"...

    You have to fight some Holland, Brazilian and last but not least, the toughest ones - Russian fighters around the world and then you can say that you are the prodigy.

    MMA is only in it's infancy which is why there is very little data surrounding the long term affects and dangers with MMA. Basically too early to claim it's safer than boxing.
