The Rabbi in the Ring

Rabbi Yossi Eilfort, an assistant Chabad rabbi from San Diego, Calif., recently made news when he fought his first amateur MMA fight, winning by TKO in the second round. Several publications covered the story, but much of coverage focused more on the oddity of a man of G-d stepping in to the MMA ring and less on the spiritual message he was trying to convey by doing so.
