McCain on MMA

Back when the UFC was just starting there were no rules, no weight classes and Sen. John McCain sought to have it banned.
TON and I recently wondered what his views on the sport would be now that it has been significantly cleaned up. We said we'd admire McCain if he would come out and recognize the changes in the sport and drop his opposition to it.
He pretty much did that in this interview with ESPN's Bob Ley in which he also discusses some other sports-related topics.
