Types of Fighting Techniques for Fighting

There are so many fighting techniques in the world that the following is just a brief introduction to a few.

Boxing has a long history and it originated at the beginning of the creation of mankind. In order to survive and compete, human beings invented it. Initially, it was a means of protecting people's lives and property. Records indicate that it has a history of more than 5,000 years. In the British Encyclopedia Britannica, it is written that "in the 40th century B.C., the remains of boxing were found in the Euphrates and Tigris river valleys". The ancient Egyptians wrote in hieroglyphics about the "leather bandages" used in boxing. Later, around the 17th century B.C., boxing spread to Ancient Greece via the Mediterranean island of Creek. On a pair of magnetic bottles excavated on the Aegean coast in the 5th century B.C., there is a boxing pattern of two people attacking and defending each other. In Greek mythology, it is said that the Athenian prince Scythias (1000 B.C.), who was a skilled boxer, used to play this kind of boxing. In ancient Greece, the sport was known as jousting, and the boxing gloves were said to contain thistles, and fierce fights often ended in the death of the loser. Archaeological excavations in Mesopotamia have also uncovered the remains of pre-1700 boxing activities. Modern boxing originated in England in the 18th century, when matches were fought without gloves and without rules or time limits, until the opponent lost the ability to continue. The famous British boxer J. Broughton formulated the earliest boxing rules in 1743 to deal with the chaotic situation of boxing matches, and designed boxing gloves in 1747, which contributed to the development of modern boxing. 1839, Britain promulgated the new rules of the London Boxing Championships, which were revised in 1853 to prohibit the use of foot kicks, headbutts, low blows with teeth, etc., and to stipulate that The boxing ring was surrounded by ropes. In 1867, Chambers, a British journalist, wrote new boxing rules emphasizing tactics and techniques in boxing. 1880, the British Amateur Boxing Association was established in London, and the first championships were held in 1881. 1924, on the eve of the 8th Olympic Games, the International Amateur Boxing Federation was established. In today's world, there are two kinds of boxing at the same time, namely, professional boxing and amateur . The Olympic Games and the Asian Games are both amateur boxing. These two types of boxing are very different in terms of rules and methods of competition. At the 3rd Olympic Games held in St. Louis, where boxing was for the first time listed as an official event, only 44 athletes from 1 country, the United States, participated in the competition, and the United States naturally won all the championships in the 7 classes set up. By the 18th Olympic Games held in Tokyo, Japan in 1964, there were 269 athletes from 56 countries. Modern boxing in China began in the late 1920s and was initially called "Western Boxing". First, someone translated a book called "Western Boxing", and in the 1930s, boxing was included as one of the main subjects in the Central National Martial Arts (Wushu) Hall of the Nationalist Government in Nanjing, China, and in the National Academy of National Martial Arts and Physical Education. Boxing is probably the most perceptually recognized form of fighting in general. It originated in British fighting. Britain, as the first country in the world to enter a capitalist civilized society, wanted to embody the spirit of fighting in a relatively civilized way. Kicking, as the most offensive move, was rightfully banned. Wrestling and counter-joint techniques were also abolished one after another, and only the most basic, and also the least lethal, punching technique was retained. Ironically, because boxing was considered the most "civilized" form of fighting, it was the most popular, made it to the Olympics, and had the highest level of relative development. Today, even this safest form of fighting still has the potential to cause serious injury to participants. Many of the professional champions have the power that is required to compete at the top level of professional boxing. The famous heavyweight fighters all emphasize strength training, with lower back and leg strength being the most critical for heavyweights, so squats are an important part of a professional fighter's repertoire, as well as heavy weight pull-ups and weighted sit-ups. Wrestling is recognized as the earliest competitive sport in the world, and was recorded in the ancient civilizations of Greece, Egypt, China and Japan. Wrestling was one of the competitions at the birth of the ancient Olympic Games in 776 B.C., and it has been a part of all Olympic Games.

Wrestling, which plays an important role in the Olympics, is divided into two types of wrestling, classical and freestyle, and is collectively known as international wrestling.

In 1912, when the 5th Modern Olympic Games were held in Stockholm, Sweden, the International Federation of Amateur Wrestling (FILA) was formally established. According to the constitution of the association, classical wrestling and freestyle wrestling were listed as international competitions. The establishment of FILA greatly promoted the spread of classical wrestling and freestyle wrestling around the world, enabling the sport to flourish on all five continents. So far, FIWA has 153 member associations. The distribution is as follows: 33 in Asia, 45 in Europe, 34 in Africa, 28 in America and 13 in Oceania. The IWF manages and is responsible for all events in classical and freestyle wrestling.

Taekwondo

Taekwondo (Korean: English: TAEKWONDO) is one of the more commonly practiced martial arts on the Korean Peninsula, and is a national tradition of fighting using hand-to-hand and foot techniques. Taek (TAE), meaning kicking and slamming with the feet; Kwan (KWON), striking with the fists; Do (DO), an artistic method. Taekwondo is an artistic method utilizing fists and feet. It is a footwork-based kung fu that is 70% footwork. There are 24 Taekwondo routines***; there are also weapons, grappling, wrestling locks, sparring self-defense and more than 10 basic kung fu styles. Taekwondo is a Korean martial art that was developed through East Asian culture and is based on the oriental spirit, inherited from a long tradition, and based on the spirit of martial arts that "begins with ritual and ends with ritual". Therefore, Taekwondo can be effectively integrated into Muay Thai and Kickboxing, and has a good effect on the practitioner's technique. Its routines can be fully or partially integrated into ancient or modern Muay Thai styles, thus improving the skill level of the practitioner.

Taekwondo is a kind of martial arts combat with hands and feet, but in some athletic competitions, such as the Olympic Games, some of the techniques, especially hand techniques, are restricted for reasons of protection of the athletes and enhancement of the spectacle of the competition. The specific requirement is that the attacking movement of the hand may only be attacked with a straight punch and only in the part of the torso that is protected by the guard. It consists of five parts: Pin Pose (Terr), Real Combat, Breaking, Stunts, and Taekwondo Dance. Taekwondo is a unique martial art that has been innovated and developed to have a high practical value for self-defense and physical strength. The origin of Taekwondo is a fusion of Taekwondo and Sontokan-ryu Karate, which is a popular martial art in Korea, and is a national traditional sport that uses hand and foot techniques to fight. Taekwondo has its roots in Taekwon, which was practiced during the Three Kingdoms period on the Korean Peninsula. Its roots can even be traced back to ancient hand-to-hand combat. It is also believed that Taekwondo has no history, and that its connotations, style, and name have been around since the 1950s. The term "Taekwondo" was coined by Choi Hong-hee in 1955. The word "taek" refers to kicking (footwork), "kwon" refers to boxing, and "do" stands for the practice of Taoism, one's own etiquette. When Choi Hong-hee was studying in Japan, he learned Japanese Matsutokan-ryu karate and incorporated it into taekwondo, so that a few of Matsutokan-ryu's hand strokes can be seen in taekwondo's patterns.

It enables practitioners to enhance their physical fitness, master their techniques and develop the quality of perseverance and will through the forms of exercise such as competition, pinpointing and kung fu testing. Divided into the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) and the International Taekwondo Federation (ITF) World Professional Taekwondo Federation (WPTF). Taekwondo is the third combat sport to enter the Olympics. The first two fighting sports to enter the Olympic Games have coincidentally avoided the most lethal technique of leg kicks, but the fighting world is undoubtedly extremely incomplete without this most important technique. How to reflect the leg technique and ensure the safety of the participants at the same time? Fancy Taekwondo draws on the ideas of fencing and solves this problem with a point to point approach. This has led to an explosion in the number of taekwondo practitioners, but it has also been criticized most by those in the fighting community. For them, Fancy Taekwondo is a typical "fancy footwork", which turns leg kicks, which are meant to be a powerful weapon, into a purely technical performance, which is "blasphemy to the spirit of fighting". Because of its point-to-point principle, Fancy Kickboxing emphasizes strength training to a lesser extent.

Today's rapid development of taekwondo has led to many fights in which taekwondo fighters can be seen. Muay Thai, or Thai boxing, is deadly and has a long history. Muay Thai is divided into ancient Muay Boran (Muay Thai) and modern Muay Thai. Muay Thai was born out of Siamese martial arts. Muay Thai is said to be "invincible for 500 years", and it is still the most lethal and popular fighting technique today. Muay Thai is known as "the sport of eight legs". Ancient Muay Thai boxing is not outstanding, but has a vicious knee, elbow, and exceptionally fierce leg: Muay Thai's trademark technology - sweeping kicks, has made many fighters buried under the iron leg, was kicked off the arm, kicked off the leg of countless. On the basis of the ancient Muay Thai fierce techniques, modern Muay Thai perfectly fused with Western boxing (boxing) technology, so that modern Muay Thai technology can be perfected, like a tiger to add wings. There is no shortage of fierce fighters in modern Muay Thai. Muay Thai's Achilles heel is the boxer's lack of understanding of wrestling and anti-joint techniques. Muay Thai's power training ideas are unique, emphasizing endurance training, requiring each strike to focus on the whole body strength, the training weight is not too concerned. Of course, this kind of thinking is not correct, can only be regarded as an interesting direction. In the free-for-all world, where Muay Thai-style techniques dominate, fighters use orthodox strength training methods to gain more powerful legs.

Thai boxing (Thai:? ; Latin transcription: Muay Thai) What is Muay Thai? Literature on Muay Thai is increasingly found in martial arts publications or in travelogues on the terroir of Thailand. Most of these articles try to introduce and comment on the techniques or characteristics of Muay Thai, but unfortunately, they can only sketch the outline of Muay Thai. Some of the so-called experts focus on its outward form without understanding its subtleties, while others vigorously portray its primitive, brutal or gray side.

Thai boxing is a national sport in Thailand, with a strong killing power. In recent years, due to the slimming craze, Muay Thai's high calorie consumption has been used as a substitute for aerobic dancing, helping women to slim down as well as acquiring a skill for personal defense.

Some people say that Muay Thai is not outside the Thai national boxing, there is no mystery to speak of, but modern Muay Thai has become "from Thailand, belongs to the world" of a sport, we all know the K-1, KOMA and other wrestling competitions, most of the contestants from Muay Thai. Any martial art so famous in the world, must have its unique nature and individual value. Muay Thai is famous all over the world, has a brilliant history, and its preciousness can never be exhausted in a few words. Muay Thai is generally practiced by poor people. The earliest record of Thai people practicing Muay Thai can be found in the Northern Chronicle, which is an account of the Thai people into the Central and Southern Peninsula, from the Sukhothai Dynasty to the Ayutthaya Dynasty's early books. According to the records, there was already boxing in the military as a pastime for the kings during the truce period. Although boxing did not become a professional game, the lords already had the custom of keeping warriors to fight to please the king. As the palace fighters and retired soldiers returned to their hometowns, the fighting skills were gradually introduced to the people. According to historical records, at the beginning of the Ayutthaya Dynasty, a law was enacted that exempted those who killed or injured their opponents in a fight from punishment. At the height of the Ayutthaya Dynasty (1350 A.D.), boxing became more and more popular and spread throughout the country. Thai people gradually realized that the new art can defend the country and the state, so the practice of martial arts is very strong, not only adults good martial arts, and Thai children can also swing kicks, practice boxing. Boxing has developed into a fashionable folk entertainment. With the introduction of Western culture, Thai traditional culture has also been affected. Western boxing was introduced to Thailand in 1912, and its forms and techniques of competition were gradually adopted and applied by Muay Thai. Especially in the early days of the Kok Joo ring (1928), the "King of the Northern Thai Legs" Nai Peng kicked the Khmer boxer to death, in order to be safe, "wearing a condom" style of Muay Thai boxing began to be used, gradually replacing the traditional "wrapped in hemp" style of boxing, and the match was gradually replaced by a "wrapped in hemp" style of boxing. "On April 1, 1937, the Department of Physical Education and Sports of the Thai government promulgated the rules of Muaythai for the first time. At this point, the system and form of the national ring competition, finally perfected and unified.

After the outbreak of the Second World War, Thailand was affected by the war, Muaythai competition was once depressed, only in the mainland during the Buddhist temple event occasionally held boxing. After the end of the war, the famous "Ratchaburi" completed, Muay Thai into the modern standard competition. Boxers from all over the world have to go to Beijing, in order to honor the wealth to show off their skills, so that once cold boxing, unprecedented activity. 1946 to 1951, known as the "Ratchaburi" period, is called the golden age of modern Muaythai development. Subsequently, "Lumphini Stadium" was built in 1956, further promoting the development of Muay Thai, Muay Thai opened up a new situation. Sanshou was born in 1979, and in the early 80's, the National Sports Commission of China started a pilot program of Sanshou in Beijing and Wuhan gymnasiums. Nowadays, Sanshou has a certain status in the international fighting events.

Sparring hand is the popularized form of Chinese martial arts. For safety reasons, most of the traditional wushu's training methods that enhance power are not used in Sanshou. Currently, there are three styles of kicking, punching, and wrestling in Sanshou. The Sanshou leg method has been criticized the most, because the guiding principle is to focus on safety first, the power of the leg method has been limited the most. This permeates all aspects of the rules, tactical thinking and training of the Sanshou competition, although there has never been an explicit prohibition of heavy blows with the legs, it is undeniable that there is a world of difference between Sanshou leg kicks in terms of lethality and traditional martial arts. Wrestling is the killer weapon of the casual fighter, and in the popularized fighting world where punches and kicks are the mainstay, casual wrestling has made many fighters from many disciplines feel uncomfortable. Sanshou today still doesn't place much emphasis on strength training, and the methods of strength training are not yet very scientific, so Sanshou lacks hard-hitting fighters. The wrestling method in Sanshou has certain characteristics. According to the requirements of "fast wrestling" and the characteristics of "no handle", grasping the key points of "destroying the center of gravity" and "swinging circle", the "catching" method was created.

Modern Sanshouba martial arts has created the methods of "catching fall" and "pinch fall", which make Sanshouba's fall fast, labor-saving and strong in actual combat.

Modern Sanshou competitions began in the late 1970s, but the 2000 Chinese Wushu Sanshou King Competition debuted in a brand-new form. Compared with traditional tournaments and invitational competitions, the Wushu Sanshou King Competition gives people a feeling that it is more exciting and better to watch, and also has some basic rules for its competitions.

The scoring of Sanshou King Competition is a five-game total score system, in which the side referees of each game record the scores of the game, and the on-field referees give the scores to the scorekeeper, who counts the scores recorded by each side referee at the end of all the five games, and the athlete who is awarded as the winner by the majority of the side referees at the end of a game shall be declared as the winning side. It should be noted that each referee is independent in awarding points, and the winner cannot be judged by adding the total points of the three side referees. In a sparring match, athletes may score points as long as they make reasonable use of the offensive and defensive moves of each wushu school, including punches, kicks, falls and knees, but they are severely penalized if they use foul moves during the match.

Traditional Chinese martial arts have a long history, with many schools and techniques. In terms of attack and defense techniques, traditional wushu emphasizes that "the hands are the two doors, and it is all up to the legs to beat people". In terms of power generation techniques, traditional wushu emphasizes that "the root is in the foot, the leg, the master is in the waist, and the shape is in the fingers", and points out that "practicing the leg is the basis". Traditional Wushu has a clear understanding of the role of strength, since ancient times, there is a "jack gate" practice, boxers can be deep squatting, leg lifting, pushing and lifting and other training, coupled with the stone stretcher, stone locks, the formation of a complete set of strength training system. Ancient wushu masters believed that strength and technique were equally important to wushu and should not be neglected. Wushu pays special attention to strength training, so the training cycle is much longer than that of modern fighting. Coupled with the fact that some fraudulent techniques such as pseudo qigong are mixed up with other techniques, today's wushu world presents a particularly confusing situation. People with knowledge have long been crying out that martial arts may be swallowed up by the jianghu style if they do not clear up their origins. Kickboxing, English name is: Kickboxing, Katakana is: キックボクシング, it has a lot of kanji names in Japan, such as: "Cujin", "Cuji", "Cudo" and other names. There are American and Japanese styles.

Note: When Kickboxing was introduced to China, it was translated by Hong Kong people as "free sparring", and the word "free sparring" came from the original translation of Kickboxing, which originally meant Kickboxing. Sumo wrestling is the national sport of Japan, where it is practiced as a sport of elegance. The sport is an elegant endeavor, and athletes are expected to possess the qualities of innocence, zeal, and broad-mindedness, as well as the cultivation of honesty, boldness, and modesty.

Sumo wrestlers compete in "dobangs" using a variety of sumo techniques, and sumo is not graded on the basis of weight.

Today, sumo is also popular among women. Yokozuna is the highest ranking title in sumo. MMA is the abbreviation of "Mixed Martial Arts" in English, and the full name in Chinese is Mixed Martial Arts (MMA)

When it comes to the most violent fighting program, it is no other than unlimited fighting. In the early days of no-holds-barred fighting, it was a real fight. The players did not bring hand protection belt and gloves, empty hand on the battlefield. And the rules are extremely open, headbutt, crotch hit, hair pulling and other unethical methods of fighting are not restricted. Competitors are able to fully utilize their kicking, punching, wrestling, and holding techniques. Today's MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) is not brutal, it guarantees the safety of the competition from the system, rules, supervision, so there are few casualties. Various techniques such as kicking, punching, wrestling, counter-joints, etc. can be used in unrestricted fighting, which is more comprehensive than the techniques used in traditional karate and Muay Thai, and is conducive to the formation of well-rounded techniques in the competitors.

MMA is a collection of ornamental, entertainment, competitive in one of the excellent sports, has become the main project of the international martial arts combat competition.MMA sports is boxing, kickboxing (kickboxing), judo and wrestling and other sports perfect combination, can be said to be a combat sports decathlon.MMA competition is a breakthrough in the rules of the sports competition, MMA's MMA is a breakthrough in the rules of sport, where all martial arts are treated equally, and practitioners of different fighting styles are allowed to compete in the same arena under a unified set of rules. the rules of MMA allow for the best of all worlds to compete in an open and fair environment, which makes it a true and fair competition. Various techniques such as strikes, holds, joints, etc. are permitted in the fight and the fight continues while the fighter is on the ground. Various martial arts techniques such as kicking, punching, wrestling, and holding can be perfectly demonstrated.

The modern sport of MMA combines kickboxing, judo and various fighting arts sports such as wrestling and kung fu, making it a very exciting fighting competition.MMA has unified rules of competition, and the rules of the match are set in an unbiased manner, which neither favors a certain kind of martial arts nor puts a certain kind of martial arts at a disadvantage. Competitors can use a variety of techniques such as punches, kicks, holds, locks, and strangles. Matches can be held in the same ring as a boxing ring, or in an octagonal arena with guardrails. Matches are won in a similar manner to boxing, i.e., KO win, dominant victory, doctor's stoppage, opponent's forfeit, scorecards, or disqualification. However, the difference with boxing or kickboxing is that a contestant can also win a match by making his opponent concede. A contestant may choose to concede when he wishes to stop the match due to being wrapped up in a clinch, taking too many punches, or physical fatigue. The entire fight is fluid and clear, and when a contestant falls to the ground the fight continues, with the referee seldom calling for a time-out. Competition weight classes are divided in much the same way as for boxing, wrestling, judo and sparring. Mixed martial arts competition dates back to the 33rd Olympiad of the Ancient Greek period in 648 B.C.E., and was known at the time as Pankration. the perfect participant would be the best wrestler of the boxers, or the best boxer of the wrestlers. Participants not only need high and comprehensive martial arts skills, but also good courage, psychological quality and tactical arrangement are the key factors to win the competition. In ancient times, the fighting competition, are no rules, is to life and death to fight each other, such as the Roman Colosseum was used for the competition, the competition, the contestants can use any moves, can use boxing, ancient Greek style fighting, wrestling and so on fighting arts.

In recent years, the kicking and wrestling to take everything mixed martial arts competition has undoubtedly become the mainstream of the world ring competition, about cross training (cross training) and MMA (Mixed Martial Arts English abbreviation, that is, Mixed Martial Arts) professional discussion, there is no doubt that has been in the international martial arts world firmly occupy the right to speak, and from this back, the international martial arts world authority will be today. The authorities in the martial arts world all attribute the pioneering ideological guidance and practical enlightenment of today's world of mixed martial arts to Bruce Lee. Because as early as the 1966s, when the traditional martial arts community is still boxing gloves and inch-stop style competition as the main body of training and competition, and still enjoy the almost mysterious "one-strike" stunts, Los Angeles Zhenfan National Martial Arts Museum period Bruce Lee has through a lot of improved training tools and improve the training methods, began to cross schools, cross-training. The cross-training of schools and fields, as well as the practice of unlimited kicking, punching, wrestling and taking what the author calls "JKDMMA", which is regarded as the beginning of the globalization of modern MMA by some domestic and foreign martial arts critics.

Bruce Lee's idea of no-limit fighting, which he advocated more than 30 years ago, and his epoch-making allegory of modern no-limit fighting through the opening scene of Dragon vs. Tiger with Sammo Hung, ultimately inspired the organizers of the world's first Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in the 1993s: to let martial artists of different disciplines compete under quasi-no-limit rules that were the closest to the actual combat situation, and who was the stronger? Who's really better? That is, in the competition is allowed to use kicks and punches, elbows and knees, wrestling holds, joint techniques, strangulation techniques and other techniques of any school, even after the contestant is on the ground can still continue to attack, until one side is completely submissive, in order to maximize the proximity to the reality of unlimited combat, as a result, Brazilian jiu-jitsu Hoyce Gracie won the multi-champion, Brazilian jiu-jitsu for the first time to break the people's traditional view of the strongest standing skills of the traditional martial arts, cross-sectional unrestricted fighting competition thus began to take off. Cross-school no-holds-barred fighting competition thus began to take the world by storm. Initially, in these tournaments, the competitors' disciplines were clearly differentiated, while jiu-jitsu and wrestling competitors were in the limelight and dominated the world. However, as the practice of UFC continues to deepen, the new "conservative" view of martial arts, which was once believed to be the strongest in the world of jiu-jitsu, is once again ruthlessly broken - because those disciplines are blurred and the world of jiu-jitsu has become more and more competitive. The new "conservative" view of jiu-jitsu as the world's strongest martial art was once again ruthlessly shattered, as mixed martial arts fighters with blurred boundaries and proficiency in both stand-up and ground techniques began to dominate the world by a wide margin.

History has confirmed Bruce Lee's insight that martial arts can only be truly fresh, vibrant and dynamic if they do away with the artificial boundaries of sects and races, and that "only a well-rounded martial arts style can cope with any situation" -- whether it be kickboxing or boxing. Whether it is kickboxing or jiu-jitsu, no one is stronger than the other, but only a comprehensive combination of three-dimensional application, can truly be based on the contemporary mixed martial arts ring. Currently, in Japan, the United States, Brazil, Russia and other countries such as mixed martial arts tournaments for a period of time in an endless stream, the evolution of rapid, although the name is different, but collectively referred to as the MMA competition. And it is no coincidence that today's hottest MMA tournament players mainstream dress and protective gear, live is exactly the "Dragon Warrior" in the opening unrestricted fighting, Bruce Lee and Sammo Hung's dress and protective gear replica!

For Bruce Lee's pioneering contribution to MMA, Japan's authoritative martial arts magazine <<Full Contact Karate>> Magazine had a clear title: the great Chinese martial artist Bruce Lee: the originator of Mixed Martial Arts. 2007, on Spike TV's "Bruce Lee Day" commemorative event, the U.S. UFC was honored by the U.S. National Championships for its "Bruce Lee Day". In 2007, at Spike TV's "Bruce Lee Day" commemorative event, Dana White, president of the American UFC organization, even openly evaluated Bruce Lee as the "father of MMA" (The father of Mixed Martial Arts).

Before the rise of MMA, the world ring is the world of stand-up free fighting, and today's world martial arts world of full-contact free fighting ring system, its main promoter can be traced back to the early 1970s, known as the United States "kickboxing ancestor," Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis, and the Joe Louis. Joe Louis, and Joe Louis is one of Bruce Lee's three champions. Louis was one of Bruce Lee's three champion-level disciples, and his idea of a full-contact, free-for-all professional tournament came directly from his mentor, Bruce Lee.

The Gracie family introduced MMA to the U.S. in 1993 with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), which allows any martial art (karate, judo, sumo, and lucha libre, etc.) and Olympic sport (boxing, judo, wrestling, and taekwondo, etc.) to compete under uniform rules. The UFC allowed American audiences to see different fighting arts compete in the same venue for the first time. To date, the UFC has become the most influential MMA competition in the world and is recognized as one of the most entertaining and competitive sporting events in the world. the success of the UFC has received tremendous support from the international martial arts community. Nowadays, champions of Olympic Games and World Championships and martial arts masters from all parties go to participate in the UFC.The success of UFC has driven the development of MMA sports worldwide, and MMA has become a globalized popular sport. To date, MMA fights have become officially legal in all 50 states throughout the United States. In addition to the monthly UFC fights; there are nearly 100 different organizations throughout the United States that host their own MMA fights.

European countries such as Russia, England, France, Germany, Spain, Finland, Norway, Holland, and Denmark have taken up the sport of MMA. In Asia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, the Philippines and other regions have also begun to organize their own MMA competitions. It is worth mentioning that Japan has become another MMA developed country after the U.S. PRIDE is the largest MMA organization in Japan, and is ranked as one of the world's leading MMA competitions along with the UFC. PRIDE usually holds a tournament in Japan once a month, and the audience alone reaches tens of thousands of people. Even the Japanese K-1 organization, which has always been famous for its kickboxing competitions, has now begun to convert half of its fights into MMA matches.
