Excerpt from The Ultimate Fighting Championship Mary O'Dell 1 American interest in mixed martial arts is growing. Both male and

female athletes are invited to compete, although this sport is not recommended for the prima donna. This full contact fighting combines various martial arts techniques so fighters with different styles can compete against each other. This intriguing sport has convinced more than one athlete that he is not, in fact, the alpha and the omega! Many people think that all combative sports should be strictly monitored and regulated by state commissions. It is obvious that the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is an organization that promotes combative athletic events. State athletic commissions should strictly monitor and regulate the UFC. Select the rebuttal statement that BEST refutes the viewpoint in section one. A) It is necessary to oversee the athletes involved in mixed martial arts. B) It is unnecessary to oversee the athletes involved in mixed martial arts. C) It is necessary for athletes involved in mixed martial arts to self-regulate. D) One distinctive feature of mixed martial arts is the combination of various techniques.

B) It is unnecessary to oversee the athletes involved in mixed martial arts.

The viewpoint made in section one is that "State athletic commissions should strictly monitor and regulate the UFC." A rebuttal statement is one that goes against the viewpoint, so it needs to say something about how the UFC should not be monitored or regulated. Option A agrees with the viewpoint by saying overseeing athletes is necessary. Option B states the opposite by saying it is unnecessary to oversee athletes. Therefore, this is the correct answer. Option C says that athletes must self-regulate. While this puts the responsibility of regulating on the athletes, it does not take it away from the commissions. There is nothing here to suggest that the commissions would not regulate just because the athletes are. Option D has nothing to do with monitoring or regulating so it is a poor choice.

Answer:

B) It is unnecessary to oversee the athletes involved in mixed martial arts.

Explanation:

The rebuttal statement that BEST refutes a viewpoint in section one is; It is unnecessary to oversee the athletes involved in mixed martial arts. A rebuttal is a statement asserting something to be false, incomplete, or in error. The last sentence of section one asserts that 'State athletic commissions should strictly monitor and regulate the UFC.' This is the same as saying that it IS necessary to oversee athletes involved in mixed martial arts (which is the sport of UFC). So the correct answer would rebut that viewpoint by asserting that it is UNnecessary.
