Not any more than our own real-world laws.

If a player intentionally breaks someone's leg in a soccer game for example, he can only be punished according to the game rules, but they can't charge him for it in a legal court.

That's way more fucked up than going too far in a fighting competition, not to mention it's real to boot.
