Presenter Felicity Finch Cage Fighting - an honourable sport of skill and strategy or a safety valve for nature's wrestling instinct? A place to prove one's manhood in recessionary times or a pantomime of thuggery?

The diminutive dancer and broadcaster Felicity Finch examines the phenomenal rise of mixed martial arts and explores why this controversial game has flourished despite disapproval from the sporting community.
