Richmond.com Interview with Fred Corritone

Richmond.com (as in Virginia) has an interview with Fred Corritone, founder of New York Karate Boxing Athletic League. Here's a sample:

Mixed martial arts, believe it or not and I hate to say this, is the wave of the future. It's mayhem. It's blood, it's guts... it's smoke and fire. Guys are coming in there tattooed, pierced up, pick them up and throw them down. But that is the way society is. Everything today is pretty aggressive whether you want it to be or not. All of the video games, the music, the dress. And fighting is the same way. MMA will never replace boxing because boxing has been here hundreds of years…but in 10 to 15 years that is going to be most of the fighting that you see.
