According to a new study, oxers and MMA fighters may see some recovery in their thinking and memory skills as well as brain structure after they stop fighting.
Within a year of the start of the study, all fighters had a professional fight. However, retired fighters then went two years without any fights while active fighters continued to participate in professional fights. In the areas of verbal memory, motor speed, and processing speed, the retired fighters had improvements in their scores over time. On the other hand, the active fighters’ scores were stable or showed subtle declines.
For neurofilament light chain levels, retired fighters showed a decrease in levels in their blood from the start to the end of the study, whereas active fighters remained stable throughout the study.
