Ufc fighting

so i was watching ufc last night, and randomly i thought, if youre hiv positive or have aids, are you allowed to fight? i mean if they are, with all the blood shed it would be easy for the other fighters to become infected too. But if hiv/aids positive people are not allowed to fight, then wouldnt that be discriminating? does anyone know the rules about this, if there are any? thanks.

I totally agree.  Blood sports like UFC can spread blood-borne illnesses such as HIV and hepatitis.  However, I am not aware if the fighters were ever tested for such infections prior to the fight.  I remember Dana White, president of UFC once dismissed one fighter because he had oral herpes.  I believe he did the right thing as oral herpes is highly contagious via skin to skin contact.  I don't believe it is discriminating to prohibit HIV-positive fighters from fighting.  In fact, I think it is the prudent thing to do.

Cool Equal justice for All

The law works but the system needs changed, We all abide by the law but sometime it failes us. The same with the goverment. God bless the USA, Brign our troops HOME safely, To the men who did not get the credit they deserve, MAY GOD WATCH OVER OUR SERVICE MEN.

Best thing i can tell you is look up the rules on the UFC and see how they read also look at the ball player Magic Johnson he had HIV and could not play basket ball any more as there is less blood shead in Basket Ball than some outher sports.

As  a Wwe wrestling   fan for  31 years  Since  age 10 ~~Ouch~~ , I think   with wrestling  stuff  needs to  be toned  down, You  got  guys  jumping  100 feet  and landing  on  another guy , In a  TLC  wrestling match , They  defintley  should  have toned  this  sport  down  along  time  ago  But these wrestlers  get  cuts , And  I  hope  they  tested
