Why is it that almost no one uses traditional martial arts in kumite?

It really isn't practical. And the ring has certain rules. And people compete in combat, not traditional martial arts. People don't let traditional martial arts people compete.

By the way, mma rules are split-finger gloves, and the rules are very open, so anyone practicing traditional martial arts can go to a mma gym and try kicking it out, and won't be bound by the rules.

To this I have always thought that traditional martial arts can't work. There is no distance, there is no explosive power, and when you see traditional martial arts abusing sparring and such, it's usually against rookies who have only been training for a few months.

And after a long time of evolution, most of the ancient martial arts used for fighting have been lost, or have been rejuvenated.

And most traditional martial arts are not taught outside of the community, resulting in traditional martial arts never getting improved, and what is backward stays backward. That's kind of the biggest drawback. But it's not that everything is impractical, there are a lot of practical techniques, but against the main use of fists and feet of modern fighting will be very disadvantageous, in the distance and power are not dominant. Take the most scientific grappling, Aikido, it dissects the human body (deconstruction) very thoroughly, so the moves are very scientific, but it only counterattacks, and against the straight line of punches can not be defended or counterattacked, only when the other side of the close, the other side of the body to touch a touch part of your body, or you have already contacted the other side of the real effect, that is to say, it is against the fight this kind of thing is almost a complete disadvantage. Traditional martial arts are the same way. In terms of punching, the fastest and most powerful attack is now the straight swinging hook. And in terms of distance, the straight punch has a big advantage.

When it comes to wrestling, the combination of Sanshou wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu (meaning Bajo and traditional Judo) wrestling techniques are really sick. We have a lot of students from the gymnasium, and their judo team won 13 vs 13 against the Chinese wrestling team, which was their offline match, with no strict rules. When it comes to takedowns, with some knowledge of deconstruction as a foundation and a period of training, they can be mastered quite well.

I'm getting a little emotional again, in short, a lot of things in traditional martial arts still work well against hooligans, and there's good stuff in there that can be learned, but not copied.

Specifically on the practicality of not practical, the above is my point of view, I am practicing mma, if the owner of the doubt, you can 2 years to spend time to the traditional martial arts and a variety of modern fighting arts are practiced, by the way, exercise, you see which is practical good.

2 floor within the buddy, don't mislead people, whether it is even traditional martial arts or practicing mma can see that person is drag.
