Leads

Contrast and Compare Lead- Famous boxers had the fame and the fortune.  They were thought of as tough and strong people with a lot of endurance.  Back in the twentieth-century, that is.  Boxers are still like that, but  now something Bruce Lee contributed to, named MMA, is the new "boxing".  With more than punches, MMA is the new sport.

Narrative/Anecdote Lead-  Punches are thrown, and kicks are released.  In the octagon, two people are going at it.  First, the plan in their heads are mysterious, but eventually you will see that the fighter on the left will fake a left jab and round house kick his opponent in the kidney on the left side of the body.  The fighter on the left is in the situation, but blocks the left and catches the kick.  He swipes the left fighter's left leg and brings him down to the ground.  Lastly, the fighter on the right ends the fight with a leg bar with the fighter on the left tapping out.  This is not a brawl, this is MMA.

Question Lead-  What is MMA?  MMA is not boxing, and it isn't street fighting. It is just an acronym for Mixed Martial Arts, a sport.  Many people would think,"Oh, isn't that boxing?" or something along those lines, but it isn't.  It is more complex than boxing by the amount of moves and strategies one may use to win.  It is more than punches, it is more than kicks, it is the ultimate fighting sport.

Please comment on which one should be used.
