What's the difference between martial arts and fighting?

In fact, there is no difference, but the focus and concern are different. Wushu is the shadow of traditional Wushu in people's minds. For example, when it comes to martial arts, people always think of Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi. Now these efforts are mostly for the purpose of fitness or performance. But if you practice these skills at home, you can also have the effect of fighting, such as Yi Long, a monk who often plays martial arts. Fighting is mostly to defeat or subdue opponents, which reminds people of the enemy boxing, Sanda, Muay Thai, karate and so on that the armed police often practice.
