SAN FRANCISCO – It seems like we don’t really need sign language interpreters for UFC fights. Sports commentators already have so little to say, and, as far as sports go, it’s pretty easy to understand what’s happening in a fight.

Having a sign language interpreter just means you’re watching them the whole time and missing all the action. The same is true of subtitles, which should be discouraged across all sports and any media not in a foreign language.

And it seems there’s little the interpreter could say that isn’t being said by the fighters.

More importantly, UFC fights are invaluable opportunities for multi-tasking, starting with the fact that one should always be listening to music and/or podcasts while watching a fight.

For music, we recommend Ravel’s Bolero or Vulvodynia’s Praenuntius Infiniti. For podcasts, it doesn’t really matter.

As you watch the fight there are tons of quick moments where you can sneak in a few pushups, work on a long text, or practice your efficacy. Stealing these moments is essential to the success of any hot-blooded go-getter, and fighting sports present an ideal scenario.

And anyways, if you’re watching a UFC fight, then really you should be watching a Jake Paul fight. He’s a boxer, he doesn’t do UFC stuff.
