Why wouldn't it be relevant? I agree that it doesn't mean he deserved what happened, but it can also show that Zimmerman had every right to defend himself against somebody who could be seen as dangerous. If they show that he was prone to getting in fights, I would think that it would be relevant to this case.
Zimmerman was prone to getting into fights---he had a domestic violence restraining order against him at one point, and had assaulted a police officer and resisted arrest (charges dropped if he completed anger management classes.)
Those facts are not allowed into the trial, so why would any evidence of a propensity for fighting in Trayvon's past if it even existed, be allowed? And there is no evidence of that anyway.

Well, you are glad his MMA past isn't brought in. How biased is that. You want to win to such a degree, you don't care if an innocent man is taken down. Pitiful!
Serino saying his impression is that GZ didn't recognize his voice because that is typical of someone hearing themselves. He didn't take that as a denial.
There's so much stupid conjecture that they ask of the witnesses.
Why aren't they relying on actual documentation, like the pages of statements by the first investigator, and later Serino, in which they documented why there was probable cause to charge Zimmerman with manslaughter? I haven't seen any of that introduced into evidence.
Of course I remember. I, unlike others, am actually watching.
The Olympics Committee could find NO record of her qualifying. NONE!
Guess that one flew right over your head.
And please stop with the personal challenges. It's sickening and very old.
Do you have any link, or any other form of proof, that the Olympics Committee made a statement that they could find no record of her qualifying? Btw, I'm, like everybody else, responding to people posting on a public Internet political forum.

Both of their characters should be under the microscope here so that the jury can make a more informed opinion.
