I do not think a full contact fighting sport like MMa or Pro level boxing is a safe idea for anyone under 18 years of age.MMA style stuff is a bit too violent in may respects as well things like boxing,wrestling,a specific martial art if taught by a good trainer can teach a kid good discipline I do not see MMA style fighting doing this like I said MMA is really a bit too violent if you ask me it is nothing more than a modern version of Gladiatorial combat(in real life the gladiators usually did not kill each other they where too valuable) viewed by fans who in many cases would never even attempt such things in real life but they enjoy the vicarious violence this is basically the nature of MMA these days and I do not see how learning this is any good for a kid.
