Source for your statistical claim? And who are you, a MAN, to tell a woman where she does or doesn't belong? Sounds awfully sexist to me.

Women should not be forced (or manipulated) into having to

You try "forcing" a woman like Gini Lau or Laura Truley or Michelle Krasnoo to do -anything- she doesn't want to. These ladies break people for recreation, they're not likely to be "forced" into anything.

We do not want to see women with cauliflower ears, noses broken over an over, scarred forehards, cracked ribs... just talking about this is actually making me feel nauseus to be honest.

Meaning -you- don't want to see those things. Some of us have no problem with it; I personally find it HOT AS HELL when a lady's got fight scars. Again, keep YOUR (male) prejudices off those bad-ass women's rights.

we should be happy to see a woman knocked out? Her face bloodied with hooks and jabs?

As students of the martial arts and the warrior culture, YES, if that's what the lady in question wants!

You complain that a former WWE "wrestler" being an MMA champion automatically invalidates MMA, and yet hereby demonstrate to have gotten your knowledge of Muy Thai from a bad Van Damme movie. You have just forfeited, totally, your right to any opinion regarding martial arts, mixed or otherwise.

Come on! There has to be some limits of human decency.

None of which entail being so utterly bone-headed as to try preventing a hard-assed woman fighter from pursuing her sport of choice. "Decency" has nothing to do with preventing people from taking part in the consenting activities of their choice; in this case the meaning appears to have been appropriated in the cause of a particularly silly form of prudish, collectivist Victorianism.
You're not a Feminist, Strange, you're just an especially insulting and condescending sexist/chauvinist.
