More Gayest. Sport. Ever.
November 26, 2007
A few days after a wrote my post Gayest. Sport. Ever. I came across a post by Mark Simpson about the implicit homoeroticism in sports made explicit in ultimate fighting.
Say hello to Ultimate Fighting, a new – and ferociously violent – sport from the USA in which two hyper-fit pleasingly muscled young men in Speedos grapple in a cage in positions that Chi Chi La Rue might blush at. Though in Ultimate Fighting, everyone fights for top.
Or maybe they’re just very feisty bottoms.
Mark is the writer that we have to think for the term “metrosexual” and for the more recent “sporno.”
Mark also posted this fight of MMA hottie Matt Hughes putting the beat down on some unlucky soul. Its good to know that I’m not the only gay grooving on ultimate fighting.

Actually, I coined the term “sporn” seven years ago, and again several times, in my syndicated sports column, “Sports Complex,” not that Simpson, who didn’t think up the term “metrosexual” either, but claims he did, will ever admit it.
