New York: Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Ronda Rousey believes more Mixed Martial Arts would result in lesser violence around the world. The former UFC bantamweight champion makes this point in the upcoming documentary, The Hurt Business: A Deeper Look at MMA. "MMA really is the most responsible outlet for (aggression), says Rousey.

"It's human instinct to fight. If you try to suppress it entirely, and put everyone in a bubble-wrapped society, that's when people start going nuts and shooting movie theaters. If any of those people that had all of that aggression built up in them had some sort of outlet, I think that we'd have a lot more societal health because of it," said the 29-year-old, who is also an actor and model.
