He's not called "the kicking machine" for no reason
The leg doesn't even look that bad. It's just swollen from all the bruising, but it's going to subside. A week from now it's going to look yellow and be half of the size it's now. I've never had that big of a bruise, but I've fought a bit in high school and once kicked my opponent in the leg and the result was pretty similar, just 1/3 of the size.
The pay isn't bad, especially if you come from countries where nobody earns like that. Champions can get over $1m for their fights, while some get 3-4m which is insane. They all hope to get a contract like that one day. As long as you're not a cripple, or dead after the fight, a million is something people would gladly suffer for.
It sounds like the "kicking machine" really lives up to the name! It's fascinating how bruises can evolve over time, and your insight into the aftermath of such fights adds a unique perspective However, I haven't been in insane fights like that maybe some minor sparring session but a serious fight that will cause some bruises like that nope!
Well, the financial aspect is intriguing too the allure of earning a million dollars in the world of professional fighting certainly seems to outweigh the physical toll for many. Do you have personal experiences with martial arts or fighting, or is this based on observations and discussions?

Those fighters are from ONE fighting right?
The names didn't look familiar at all so had to do a short search for them. But good to know about how bad leg kicks can get. As in the UFC anybody can win by a solid kick. Just look what happened to McGregor with breaking his leg from them.
UFC fights announced so far for the 300 aren't going over so great. And I think I heard the another event is Jessica Andrade vs. Marina Rodriguez.
Which doesn't get me excited one bit so that is 11 fights already booked.
So what is the main event has anybody heard what it is yet?
Because it better be great to save this thing. Because remember seeing a meme with the headliners and Belal was one of them. The most boring fighter who is up for a title. So that says it all.
It's interesting how you delved into the fighters from ONE fighting and explored their backgrounds. Leg kicks indeed play a pivotal role in many fights, as evident from McGregor's unfortunate leg break that was an Elbow from Dustin Poirier but that was all just Bruises,
While in the UFC. Regarding UFC 300, it seems like the announced fights haven't quite lived up to expectations so far. The potential Jessica Andrade vs. Marina Rodriguez matchup may not be sparking excitement for you. As for the main event, I haven't come across any information yet. Hopefully, the organizers have something captivating in store to make UFC 300 a memorable event. The meme with Belal as one of the headliners adds a humorous touch, but let's hope the actual event surpasses expectations!
