I would have to watch it again, it’s been a second, but I did enjoy it. I thought it was an excellent general history of the modern era of combat sports.

I understand what Felix and Bois were going for, how the rise of it coincided with these political vibes, but I remember it not coming together as nicely as I thought it could. Regardless I enjoyed their views on that, since even if not optimal it’s more nuanced and abstract commentary on a topic that is dominated primarily by fucking morons who probably think the matrix was the most confusing film ever made.
What did you as a fan think of “fighting in the age of loneliness” if you’ve seen it? Its basically my only foray into any sort of combat sport.
