WHAT DOES MMA ACTUALLY TEACH.?

MMA are great to train but they do not teach you how to fight.
1.Boxing teaches you how to throw a mean punch, but if the fight goes to the ground the boxer is done for.
2.Thai Kickboxing shows you how to kick the hell out of someone, but if the fight goes to the ground the Thai Kickboxer is done for.
3.Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu teaches you how to subdue someone on the ground with an armbar or a choke, but it doesn’t teach stand-up fighting or punching.
4.Jeet Kune Do teaches you how to condition your body and mind but it doesn’t teach you how to break free of a headlock.
5.Wrestling will build immense strength but has too many rules to ever win a fight. (SHALINI.R.)

MMA

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a full-contact combat sport that allows both striking and grappling, both standing and on the ground, using techniques from other combat sports and martial arts. The first documented use of the term mixed martial arts was in a review of UFC .

During the early 20th century, various mixed-style contests took place throughout Japan and the Pacific Rim. In 1980 CV Productions, Inc., created the first regulated MMA league in the United States, named Tough Guy Contest, later renamed Battle of the Superfighters. The company sanctioned ten tournaments in Pennsylvania. However, in 1983 the Pennsylvania State Senate passed a bill prohibiting the sport.^[4][5]
