Mixed Martial Arts

[abigor99]

Gusto ko lang itanung sa mga nag MMA. Sa pag kaalam ko kc its called MMA because it combines striking and grapling. Ang tanung ko does it make it better to other martial arts who just practice striking like TKD or Muay Thai or Grappling like Judo or BJJ?

 

May narinig din kc ako nag comment na since MMA fighters are oriented to fight in the ring di sila ganun ka effective sa street fight againts thugs and such dahil limited ang techniques na ginagamit sa ring. Salamat in advace to those who will clarify.

MMA is better than "all" martial arts (I say "ALL", take note) in the sense that it is a combination of every martial arts imaginable and there is a lot of improvement, especially if you want to apply some "techniques" in every aspect of it...

 

And no, MMA is most effective in streets than in the ring/cage simply because there is no rule in street fighting and you can maim or even k*ll someone if you use your MMA skills with reckless disregard in the streets... Except, of course, yung BJJ. Hindi ka makikipag-away kalye na nakahiga lang lagi...

tinigin ko lang po kc parang masyado diverse un skills na kailangan malaman sa MMA unlike other martial arts who just practice either striking or grappling. Para bang doctor na may specialization unlike a general practitioner lang.

 

panu po naging effective ang MMA sa streets kung panay ang training ay for the ring na may rules and conditions? Thanks for the comment. hope some one would comment regarding other martial arts they practice.

I basically created this thread to make a comparison with other martial art styles. All styles claim they are the best in this and that so i would like their opinion on why they think their style is the best.

MMA is the best since you can use all of the said martial arts and even boxing! the fighters should not really on their stricking nor grappling alone! it should be balance... the MMA fighters are mostly well-rounded in every aspect of fighting!

 

 

and i dont think MMA fighters arent effective against thugs in the streets! i just dont think thugs will fight fair, its just fighting barehands w/ mob or worse a person w/ a weapon!

Bj opened up a nasty cut on stevenson forehead with an elbow. Bj uses the oozing blood as lubricant to an easy rear naked choke submission. after the fight the loser spilled a lot of tears... tsk tsk tsk... weather weather lang.
