MMA is a rapidly evolving sport that has the attention of many global fans worldwide. Mostly in part due to combat sports promotions as big as UFC itself. That leaves fans piqued about big face-offs. With a rising interest in the scope of fighting, there are always dreamscape matches to be made. But snubbing the idea of dream matches that never happened between top athletes, some of them do happen but between mere civilians.
One such surfaced footage shows a girl dressed as pop-culture character Wednesday Addams and mediating an MMA sparring match in a basketball court. The footage shows the bizarrely (but interestingly) dressed referee shaking on it and initiating the fight between two mismatched opponents. She mediates the bout, turns the guard when out of bounds, sees an Omoplata submission through, and even sprawls around the fighters. Addams (of Lisa Loring, Christina Ricci, and Jenna Ortega fame) is a supposed spooky character; hence this has drawn much traction.
Every once in a while one gets to witness MMA-styled assaults and altercations even among civilians. And then there are times when the premise is more organized, like a real sport. While they might not fall under listings of the best exciting UFC fights that amazed the fans, they are interesting nonetheless. And one prime reaction on X quipped that – “I’m more fascinated by Wednesday Adams reffing that match.”
Every once in a while even seasoned MMA fighters do engage in goofy and hilarious sparring in the middle of the road. But a ‘David vs. Goliath ‘-esque matchup judged by a spookily dressed character has earned many reactions from the MMA community.
