I hate combat sports

I hate that Amateur Wrestling has no spaces for hobby-level wrestlers. Instead you have a wasteland of people who want to continue to be athletes, but instead have peaked in high school.

It’s heartbreaking that you can only do Judo until your body screams "ENOUGH!", or until the IJF, in their never-ending search to please France, finally turns it into an all-kata sport.

It’s unfortunate that Sambo is too thin on the ground to find training, is just as tough on the body as judo and is 100% funded by a corporation that is a combination of the worst parts of Exxon Mobil and Blackwater/Constellis.

I hate that Catch Wrestling outside of Japan is composed of carnies fighting with each other, while putting together less than two competitions a year with a grand total of nine total competitors. That is, when they aren’t getting “worked” by dead pro wrestlers.

I despise the fact that Muay Thai is a continuous car wreck of bodily abuse that leaves most fighters with wrecked bodies and scrambled brains before their pre-frontal cortex even develops.

Then you have boxing, which is a Darwinian filter that finds mutants who are resistant to brain damage. How do you know if you have a non-rattling brainpan? We dunno! We’ll find out by the time you retire from fighting! If you weren’t, there’s always hospice at 40!

Of course, you can’t go to the traditional martial arts. They are full "Lightning bolt Lightning bolt!" LARPers with people playing "who can pretend the hardest" and coming to blows over Batman vs Superman arguments, except those superheroes are ‘Chinese druggie movie star’ vs ‘Japanese Carnie’.

You could maybe do a western or eastern weapon based martial art, but, uh… No.

The western style ones are buried in the tradition of trying to figure out techniques from woodcuts before people knew how anatomy and perspective-in-art worked. Oh, and the art is literally full of literal Nazis. No, not Neo-Nazis, but “I have three Schutzstaffel uniforms in my closet and one in my car at any time” type of Nazis.

The eastern style weapon arts? Well, they combine the orientalist worship of tiny brown psychos (fuck off, those are my people) who will kill you for singing Frank Sinatra at Karaoke. This is combined with their own Johnny Knoxville & Steve-O level of disregard for their own personal safety. No one is under 30 and everyone is ready to serve 10-20 years from using that clip-it in their pocket to cover themselves in your blood.

So what does that leave? The Infomercial Version Brazilian Pre-War Judo - Sorry, “Gracie Jiu Jitsu”. A sport created by a family legacy as legit and sane as the Von Erich’s legacy, just with more Victorian age mysticism and Mormon-style bigamist compounds.

It’s a miracle that BJJ is as widespread as it is. It should have gone "worked" like pro-wrestling but the two headed dragon of Latino machismo culture & the socio-economic classism of Brazil kept it "Alive" - the Gracies were rich compound dwellers.

Unlike every other carnie, they loved their machismo displays more than money. So they'd come down from their compound and beat on the karate nerds, capoeiristas and wrestlers in the slums to prove the superiority of their art and their family’s bloodline.

So with the west primed by a 20 year parade of scam artists pretending to be Shaolin monks and mulletted men cosplaying as both Samurai and the resistance against the samurai, it all culminated with a tubby fake special forces LARPer, who roleplayed his way into writing a script to the penultimate martial arts experience: Bloodsport.

After that, we were ready for a "Bloodsport but IRL!" and Rorion was ready to serve it up, with his law degree and the blood of his carnie ancestors flowing through him. He even pushed his scrawny & socially awkward brother to be in the starring role: Royce. I am sure he would have liked to do it himself, but, you know…

Even with a carefully managed opponent list, Royce could have gotten cracked and absolutely embarrassed, but somehow he didn't and Rorion had his angle to work them marks! No more training some locals out of a garage, the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu myth was ready for sale.

So, plenty bought into this repackaged Japanese jacket wrestling in huge numbers on seeing the skinny, awkward and “manageable” Royce strangle his way through a crowd of clueless fighters. They bought into it so much so, it’s now become its own sport and has a competition scene completely divorced from the roots of anything-goes fighting. But that comes with its own problems.

Here’s a sport that is so disorganized that even with six times the number of practitioners in the US than Judo, and nearly 10 times as many fencing, there isn’t a national governing body in the United States, Australia or anywhere in Europe.

Meanwhile, the international governing body is run by the biggest gym association in Brazil. For those who don’t understand how patently insane this is, imagine the Premier League was straight-up run by Manchester United, the NFL run by The Cowboys or the NHL run by the Maple Leafs.

There is no organized syllabus of instruction. There are only nascent attempts at an objective test of skills for the various ranks and they are far from widespread. Want to start a fight online? Ask for “the essential techniques for a blue belt”.

Then there are the competitions. Matches are conducted on mats of random composition, size and protective value. Competitors are allowed to continue attacks off the mat and into other competitors’ areas or into the other competitors themselves. Matches scramble out into the stands, into the crowd and coaching areas, smash into medical tables and even fall down stairwells with frightening regularity.

That all said, it is the only grappling art with any sort of aliveness and a measure of effectiveness that you can realistically do after your athletic peak. This is a damn tragedy, because everything about it is so astonishingly clown-shoes, it is embarrassing to be involved in it.

Historia rywalizacji ma bogate korzenie sięgające najdawniejszych czasów ludzkości. Od starożytnych igrzysk olimpijskich po współczesne mistrzostwa sportowe, rywalizacja jest integralną częścią naszego życia. Jednak nie tylko w sporcie można dostrzec tę dynamiczną dynamikę rywalizacji.

W historii polityki, sztuki i nauki również odgrywała ona istotną rolę. Starożytne imperia rywalizowały o władzę i wpływy, co kształtowało bieg historii. W dziedzinie sztuki artyści rywalizowali o uznanie i wybitność, co przyczyniło się do powstania niesamowitych dzieł. Nawet w dziedzinie biznesu konkurencja między firmami napędza innowacje i postęp technologiczny.

Rywalizacja może być zarówno zdrowa, jak i szkodliwa, dlatego warto zwracać uwagę na sposób, w jaki się rywalizuje. Pozytywna rywalizacja może nam pomóc rozwijać się, motywować do osiągania celów i stawiania sobie coraz większych wyzwań. Jednak rywalizacja negatywna, oparta na zazdrości i nienawiści, może prowadzić do destrukcyjnych zachowań i konfliktów.

Dlatego ważne jest, aby kultywować szacunek, fair play i zdrową ambicję w procesie rywalizacji. Rozwijanie umiejętności współpracy i empatii może sprawić, że rywalizacja stanie się bardziej konstruktywna i pozytywna dla wszystkich zaangażowanych stron. Historia rywalizacji ma wiele twarzy, ale to my decydujemy, w jaki sposób będziemy się współzawodniczyć z innymi.

Szanse na wygraną

Szanse na wygraną w różnych dziedzinach życia mogą być różne. Niezależnie od tego, czy chodzi o grę w kasynie, konkurs talentów czy rywalizację sportową, istnieją pewne czynniki, które wpływają na to, czy osiągniemy sukces czy nie.

Po pierwsze, liczy się umiejętność przygotowania się do wyzwania. W przypadku gier losowych, takich jak ruletka czy automaty do gier, nie ma sposobu na przewidzenie wyniku, ale odpowiednie strategie mogą zwiększyć szanse na wygraną. W konkursach talentów ważne jest doskonałe przygotowanie swojego występu, aby zachwycić publiczność i jury. W sporcie natomiast regularne treningi i odpowiednia kondycja fizyczna są kluczowe.

Po drugie, niezwykle istotna jest też determinacja i pozytywne nastawienie. Wiara w siebie i swoje możliwości może zdziałać cuda i pomóc pokonać wszelkie trudności. Nawet jeśli na początku wydaje się, że szanse na wygraną są niewielkie, nie wolno się poddawać. Praca nad sobą i ciągłe dążenie do celu mogą przynieść oczekiwane rezultaty.

Wreszcie, szczęście też odgrywa pewną rolę w osiągnięciu sukcesu. Czasem trzeba po prostu mieć fart, aby wygrać w konkursie czy zdobyć nagrodę. Jednak nawet w przypadku gier losowych czy loterii, nie można polegać wyłącznie na szczęściu - warto stosować pewne strategie, które zwiększą szanse na sukces.

Podsumowując, szanse na wygraną zależą od wielu czynników, takich jak przygotowanie, determinacja, pozytywne nastawienie i odrobina szczęścia. Niezależnie od tego, w jakiej dziedzinie rywalizujemy, ważne jest nieustanne dążenie do celu i wiara w to, że jesteśmy w stanie odnieść sukces.

The Ultimate Showdown: Judo vs Jiu Jitsu - Unveiling the Secrets of Two Ancient Martial Arts

Judo vs Brazilan Jiu Jitsu

What’s the diffrence?

In the realm of martial arts, two ancient disciplines reign supreme: Judo and Jiu Jitsu.

Both embody centuries of tradition and offer a wealth of physical and mental benefits. But when it comes to pitting these two powerhouses against each other, who will come out on top? On the other hand, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, an offshoot of Judo, places greater emphasis on ground fighting and submissions.

Its techniques prioritize controlling an opponent through locks and chokes, making it a formidable form of self-defense.

In the vast realm of martial arts, two captivating combat forms have carved a unique niche for themselves - Judo and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Originating from the same root of ancient Japanese martial arts, these two disciplines have evolved into distinct entities with their unique philosophies, techniques, and competitive formats.

So Lets breakdown the 2.

Judo: The Gentle Way

The Emergence of Judo

Judo, known as the "gentle way," sprung from the ancient martial art system of Japan, which was established in 1532, called Takenouchi-ryu. The Samurai warriors of Japan's feudal era extensively practiced this fighting system, which laid the groundwork for Judo and many other martial art forms.

The inception of modern Judo traces back to the late 19th century when Jigoro Kano, a young Jiu-Jitsu fighter, envisioned spreading the combat style to the masses. In 1882, Kano opened the first Kodokan Judo school, modifying traditional Jiu-Jitsu to make it more accessible and less brutal. Kano's version of Judo soon gained popularity, securing a place in the training regimes of law enforcement and military organizations in Japan.

Judo Joins the Olympics

Kano's success in propagating Judo globally led to his invitation to the Olympic Committee in 1909. The 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games marked the official inclusion of Judo, bringing this martial art form to a global platform.

The Philosophy and Techniques of Judo

Judo imbibes the philosophy of gentleness, despite its dynamic nature. It emphasizes the use of balance, power, and movement to subdue an opponent, focusing predominantly on standing techniques. Judo players specialize in throws, trips, and foot sweeps executed from standing and clinch positions.

The techniques of Judo include throws, joint locks, and chokeholds, which are still effective even against armored opponents, reflecting its Samurai roots. It does not involve kicking, punching, or striking of any kind, does not put pressure on joints to throw an opponent, and involves no equipment or weapons.

The Belt Ranking of Judo

The belt ranking system in Judo plays a vital role in depicting a player's experience and expertise level. The advancement through the belt colors signifies the progression in a Judoka's (a practitioner of Judo) journey, with each color representing a specific level of proficiency.

Kyu Grades (Mudansha):

These are for students who have not yet attained the level worthy of a black belt.

Kyu grades are indicated by colored belts:

Sixth Kyu (Rokkyū): Beginners wear a light blue belt.

Fifth Kyu (Gokyū): After passing an elementary level, practitioners adopt a white belt.

Fourth Kyu (Yonkyū): Still indicated by a white belt.

Third Kyu (Sankyū): Brown belt for seniors or purple belt for juniors.

Second Kyu (Nikyū): Brown belt for seniors or purple belt for juniors.

First Kyu (Ikkyū): The last kyu rank before promotion to the first-degree black belt (shodan).

Dan Grades (Yūdansha):

These denote expert levels and are ranked in ascending numerical order.

Dan grades wear black belts:

First Dan (Shodan): The initial black belt.

Second Dan (Nidan), Third Dan (Sandan), Fourth Dan (Yondan), and Fifth Dan (Godan) follow.

Sixth Dan (Rokudan), Seventh Dan (Nanadan), Eighth Dan (Hachidan), and Ninth Dan (Kudan).

Tenth Dan (Jūdan): The highest rank in Judo.

This ranking system was introduced by Kanō Jigorō, the founder of Judo, in 1883

Jiu Jitsu: The Art of Flexibility

The Advent of Jiu Jitsu

Jiu Jitsu, or the "art of flexibility," shares its root with Judo in the traditional Japanese martial art forms. However, the modern version of Jiu Jitsu, known as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), found its origin in South America, thanks to Mitsuyo Maeda, a disciple of Jigoro Kano.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu: The Gracie Legacy

Maeda traveled to Brazil in 1914 as part of a Japanese immigration colony. He initiated the first Judo school and started training the Gracie brothers, who eventually shifted their focus to the ground aspect of Judo, known as "newaza." The Gracie family's contribution to modifying Judo ground techniques led to the emergence of a unique fighting style called Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. They utilized their ground fighting skills to dominate Vale Tudo, the no-holds-barred fights in Brazil.

The Philosophy and Techniques of Jiu Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu emphasizes ground techniques, with some standing techniques incorporated for self-defense. The primary goal of a BJJ match is to force the opponent to submit. The sport instills the philosophy that a smaller and weaker opponent can outmaneuver a stronger one using appropriate techniques and leverage.

The Belt Ranking of Jiu Jitsu

The belt ranking system in Jiu Jitsu serves as a roadmap for students' progression. The journey from a white belt to a black belt reflects the development of technical skills, tactical strategies, and mental toughness.

Adult Belt Ranks (16 years and older):

White Belt: The beginning rank for all BJJ students. White belts focus on fundamental techniques and positional control.

Blue Belt: After gaining experience, practitioners advance to blue belt. They learn more complex techniques and develop their game.

Purple Belt: Purple belts have a solid understanding of BJJ. They refine their techniques, transitions, and submissions.

Brown Belt: Brown belts are highly skilled and often considered experts. They focus on mastery and teaching.

Black Belt: The pinnacle of achievement in BJJ. Black belts have extensive knowledge, exceptional skills, and often contribute to the art.

You can read more about Evolution MMA / Alliance Jiu Jitsu Belt rankning system with the button below:

The History of Evolution MMA’s Jiu Jitsu Team “Alliance Jiu Jitsu”

Alliance Jiu-Jitsu was founded in 1993 by three Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legends:

Romero “Jacaré” Cavalcanti,

Fabio Gurgel, and

Alexandre Paiva.

Their vision was to create a powerhouse team that would not only excel in technical prowess but also uphold the highest standards of professionalism.

Here’s a glimpse into the story of Alliance:

Origins and Unification:

In the 1980s, Jacaré and his two black belt students, Fabio Gurgel (General) and Alexandre Paiva (Gigi), followed separate paths in their own academies.

However, whenever they met in championships, they ended up competing against each other due to their origins, creating an unfair rivalry.

In 1993, they made a pivotal decision: to form an alliance—ALLIANCE—so they could stand together in all competitions.

This alliance allowed them to combine their strengths and create a unified force in the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Growth and Association:

As their academies expanded and formed affiliates, they realized the need for a unified teaching method and effective management.

In 2014, they established an association to achieve these goals, implementing Fabio Gurgel’s successful management practices.

In 2016 Evolution MMA joined team Alliance Jiu Jitsu and became Chicago’s Alliance Jiu Jitsu

Today, the ALLIANCE Team boasts over 300 affiliates worldwide and holds an impressive 13x WORLD CHAMPION title.

Some of the main champions associated with Alliance include Sergio Moraes, Bruno Malfacine, Cobrinha, Bernardo Faria, and many more.

Founders:

Romero “Jacaré” Cavalcanti:

Born in 1952, Jacaré began his BJJ journey at the age of 11.

He trained with notable figures such as Carlos Gracie Jr., Rickson Gracie, and others.

Fabio Gurgel (“General”):

Born in 1970, Fabio started his BJJ career at 13.

He received his black belt from Jacaré at 19 and became one of the founders of Alliance.

Alexandre Paiva (“Gigi”):

Alexandre began training in 1983 with Jacaré.

He obtained his black belt in 1991 and played a crucial role in Alliance’s growth.

Alliance Jiu-Jitsu continues to shape the world of BJJ, producing champions both on the mats and in life. You too can be part of this remarkable legacy by joining the Alliance family!

Judo vs Jiu Jitsu: The Dichotomy

While Judo and Jiu Jitsu share a common lineage and philosophy, they exhibit stark differences in their focus, techniques, and competitive formats. Judo accentuates standing techniques and throws, while Jiu Jitsu prioritizes ground control and submissions.

In terms of competition rules, Judo matches can be won by executing a perfect throw, pinning the opponent on the mat for 20 seconds, or making the opponent submit.

On the other hand, a BJJ match can be won either by points or by forcing the opponent to submit.

The belt ranking system also varies between Judo and Jiu Jitsu, reflecting the distinct training and grading methodologies of these martial arts.

The Interlinkages: Judo and Jiu Jitsu

Despite the differences, Judo and Jiu Jitsu are intertwined in many ways.

Both martial arts focus on using an opponent's strength and movements against them, promoting the principle of efficiency. They share several techniques, particularly those related to grappling and submissions.

The use of a uniform, or Gi, is common in both Judo and Jiu Jitsu competitions, and gripping an opponent's Gi is an integral part of the techniques in both martial arts.

A Tale of Two Martial Arts

Judo and Jiu Jitsu, despite their unique trajectories, remain closely connected through their shared roots and principles. Each martial art form offers unique benefits and challenges, contributing to the richness and diversity of the martial arts world. Whether it's the gentle way of Judo or the flexibility of Jiu Jitsu, both martial arts continue to captivate practitioners worldwide, enriching their journey of physical prowess and mental fortitude.

Khabib Nurmagomedov: Der Aufstieg zum ungeschlagenen Champion

Khabib Nurmagomedov, auch bekannt als "The Eagle", ist zweifellos einer der erfolgreichsten Kämpfer in der Geschichte des gemischten Kampfsports (MMA). Als russisch-dagestanischer Athlet hat er mit seiner unvergleichlichen Kampftechnik und Dominanz die MMA-Welt beeindruckt und sich einen legendären Ruf erarbeitet.

Nurmagomedov begann seine Karriere im Kampfsport bereits in jungen Jahren und erlernte die Grundlagen des Sambo und des Judo. Mit seiner außergewöhnlichen Kombination aus Präzision, Kraft und Ausdauer entwickelte er im Laufe der Jahre seinen eigenen unverkennbaren Kampfstil. Der Großteil seiner Kämpfe endet mit bodenbasierter Dominanz, bei der Khabib seine Gegner mit seinen beeindruckenden Grappling-Fähigkeiten kontrolliert.

Seit seinem Debüt in der UFC im Jahr 2012 hat sich Khabib auf beeindruckende Weise durch die Ränge bewegt. Mit einer ungeschlagenen Bilanz von 29 Siegen und null Niederlagen wurde er zur dominanten Kraft in der UFC-Leichtgewichtsdivision. Er hat sich gegen Kämpfer wie Conor McGregor, Dustin Poirier und Justin Gaethje behauptet und siegreich seinen Titel verteidigt.

Neben seinen beeindruckenden sportlichen Leistungen ist Khabib auch für seine Bescheidenheit und seinen Respekt vor seinen Gegnern bekannt. Er ist ein Vorbild für viele junge Athleten auf der ganzen Welt und wird für seine Disziplin und seinen starken moralischen Kompass bewundert.

Ende Oktober 2020 verkündete Khabib seinen Rücktritt vom MMA nach seinem letzten Kampf gegen Justin Gaethje. Mit dieser Entscheidung verlässt er den Sport als ungeschlagener Champion und hinterlässt eine beeindruckende Erfolgsbilanz.

Khabib Nurmagomedov hat zweifellos seine Spuren im MMA hinterlassen und wird als einer der größten Kämpfer aller Zeiten in Erinnerung bleiben. Seine außergewöhnliche Karriere und seine beispiellose Dominanz haben ihm eine große Fangemeinde und den Respekt der gesamten Kampfsportwelt eingebracht.

Conor McGregor ist zweifellos eine der bekanntesten Persönlichkeiten im Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) und eine beeindruckende Figur in der Welt des Sports. Der irische Kämpfer begann seine Karriere im MMA und entwickelte sich zu einem der erfolgreichsten und polarisierendsten Athleten der Branche.

Geboren am 14. Juli 1988 in Dublin, Irland, begann McGregor früh mit dem Kampfsport und trainierte sowohl das Boxen als auch das Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Er wurde unerbittlich in seiner Verfolgung, sich in diesen Disziplinen weiterzuentwickeln und eine Karriere als MMA-Kämpfer zu verfolgen.

McGregor machte auf sich aufmerksam, als er im Jahr 2013 die Cage Warriors Fighting Championship gewann, indem er seinen Gegner in der ersten Runde besiegte. Dieser Sieg brachte ihm den Aufstieg in die Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) ein, die weltweit führende MMA-Organisation.

In der UFC machte McGregor schnell von sich reden, indem er eine Reihe beeindruckender Siege erzielte. Sein markanter Stil, der von seiner außergewöhnlichen Schlagkraft und Präzision geprägt ist, hat ihm viele Fans eingebracht. Er ist bekannt für seine Fähigkeit, seine Gegner schnell auszuschalten und spektakuläre K.O.-Siege zu erzielen.

Neben seinen sportlichen Erfolgen hat McGregor auch außerhalb des Rings eine große Anhängerschaft aufgebaut. Er ist bekannt für seinen selbstbewussten und oft kontroversen Stil, der ihn zu einem Medienliebling macht. McGregor hat ein unverwechselbares Auftreten und scheut sich nicht davor, sich mit anderen Kämpfern oder prominenten Persönlichkeiten anzulegen.

Obwohl McGregor in seiner Karriere auch Rückschläge erlebt hat, bleibt er ein herausragender Athlet und hat sich als eine der größten Figuren im MMA etabliert. Seine Popularität und sein Einfluss sind weiterhin stark, und seine Kämpfe sind immer ein Ereignis, das die Aufmerksamkeit der Fans auf sich zieht.

Conor McGregor ist zweifellos ein bemerkenswerter Athlet und ein faszinierender Charakter. Er hat die Welt des MMA geprägt und wird zweifellos weiterhin Schlagzeilen machen und seine Fans begeistern.

Die UFC 229 war zweifellos eines der aufregendsten und denkwürdigsten Events in der Geschichte der Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Dieses spektakuläre Event fand am 6. Oktober 2018 in der T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas statt und sorgte für zahlreiche kontroverse Schlagzeilen.

Der Hauptkampf der UFC 229 war ein Duell zwischen dem irischen Superstar Conor McGregor und dem russischen Kampfsportler Khabib Nurmagomedov. Die Spannung und der Konflikt zwischen den beiden Kämpfern waren bereits im Vorfeld des Events deutlich spürbar. McGregor, bekannt für seine laute und provokative Art, hatte den russischen Kämpfer und seine Familie öffentlich beleidigt, was zu einem hochexplosiven Duell führte.

In einem brutalem Kampf setzte sich Khabib gegen McGregor durch und gewann durch Aufgabe in der vierten Runde. Jedoch wird dieser Kampf oft aufgrund der nach dem Kampf entstandenen Ereignisse in Erinnerung bleiben. Khabib sprang nach seinem Sieg über den Käfig und attackierte McGregors Teammitglieder, während einige Mitglieder von Khabibs Team in den Käfig eindrangen und McGregor attackierten. Dies führte zu chaotischen Szenen und Eskalationen zwischen den Lagern beider Kämpfer.

Die UFC 229 brach mehrere Rekorde, darunter den Rekord für das meistverkaufte Pay-per-View-Event in der Geschichte der UFC. Es wurde von Millionen von Menschen weltweit verfolgt und löste eine riesige Debatte über die Grenzen des Sports und das respektvolle Verhalten von Athleten aus.

Der Vorfall nach dem Hauptkampf hatte schwerwiegende Konsequenzen für beide Kämpfer. Khabib wurde vorübergehend suspendiert und mit einer hohen Geldstrafe belegt. McGregor erhielt ebenfalls eine Suspendierung und Geldstrafe wegen seiner Beteiligung an den nachkämpferischen Auseinandersetzungen.

Insgesamt war die UFC 229 ein denkwürdiges Event, das die Grenzen des Sports überschritt. Es zeigte, dass die Emotionen in diesem Sport oft überkochen können, und führte zu Diskussionen über Disziplin und Fairness im Mixed Martial Arts. Trotz der Vorfälle bleibt die UFC 229 ein monumentaler Moment in der Geschichte der UFC.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) ist eine aufregende und wachsende Sportart, die aus verschiedenen Disziplinen des Kampfsports besteht. Es ist eine Mischung aus traditionellem Boxen, Kickboxen, Karate, Judo, Ringen und Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Im MMA sind die Athleten erlaubt, sowohl Schlag- als auch Bodenkampftechniken einzusetzen, um ihren Gegner zu besiegen.

Ein wichtiger Aspekt des MMA ist die Vielseitigkeit der Kämpfer. Sie müssen sowohl im Stehen als auch am Boden kompetent sein, um erfolgreich zu sein. Dies erfordert ein hohes Maß an Training, Disziplin und körperlicher Fitness. Die Kämpfer müssen nicht nur stark sein, sondern auch über eine gute Ausdauer, Flexibilität und Schnelligkeit verfügen.

Eine weitere bemerkenswerte Eigenschaft des MMA ist die Tatsache, dass es keine Gewichtsklassen gibt. Kämpfer verschiedener Größen und Gewichte treten gegeneinander an. Dies führt zu faszinierenden und oft überraschenden Kämpfen, da die Technik und das Können eines Kämpfers oft wichtiger sind als seine körperliche Statur.

Das MMA hat in den letzten Jahren an Popularität gewonnen und zieht ein breites Publikum an. Es gibt eine Vielzahl von Veranstaltungen und Ligen, wie die UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship), die die besten Kämpfer der Welt zusammenbringen. Diese Veranstaltungen bieten Spannung, Action und atemberaubende Knockouts, die die Zuschauer fesseln.

Es ist wichtig anzumerken, dass das MMA trotz seiner gewaltsamen Natur strenge Regeln hat, um die Sicherheit der Athleten zu gewährleisten. Es gibt strenge Vorschriften bezüglich erlaubter Techniken und Schutzmaßnahmen wie Handschuhe und Mundschutz.

Mixed Martial Arts ist nicht nur eine Sportart, sondern auch ein Lebensstil für viele Athleten. Die Kämpfer investieren viel Zeit und Mühe in ihr Training und ihre Skills, um ihre Ziele zu erreichen. Sie sind Vorbilder für Disziplin, Ausdauer und den Willen, über ihre Grenzen hinauszugehen.

Wenn Sie ein Fan von spannenden Kämpfen und beeindruckender athletischer Leistung sind, dann ist Mixed Martial Arts definitiv eine Sportart, die Sie verfolgen sollten. Es ist eine aufregende Mischung aus verschiedenen Kampfstilen, die gemeinsam ein fesselndes und unvorhersehbares Spektakel bieten.

Die Gewichtsklassen im Kampfsport sind entscheidend, um faire und ausgeglichene Wettkämpfe zu ermöglichen. Eine der aufregendsten Gewichtsklassen im Kampfsport ist die Lightweight Championship. In diesem Artikel werden wir uns mit den wichtigsten Fakten zu dieser Gewichtsklasse befassen.

Die Lightweight Championship ist eine Gewichtsklasse, die in verschiedenen Kampfsportarten wie beispielsweise Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) anzutreffen ist. Sie befindet sich in der Mitte der Gewichtsskala und liegt in der Regel zwischen den Gewichtsklassen Weltergewicht und Federgewicht.

Die genaue Gewichtsgrenze für die Lightweight Championship kann je nach Kampfsportverband variieren. Bei vielen Verbänden liegt sie jedoch bei etwa 70 bis 73 Kilogramm. Kämpfer in dieser Gewichtsklasse haben in der Regel eine schlanke und athletische Statur, da sie einen guten Kompromiss zwischen Geschwindigkeit und Kraft bieten.

Top Self-Defence Styles to Learn in Brampton

Feeling capable of protecting yourself is an important life skill. While Brampton is a safe city, it’s smart to be prepared just in case. Self-defence classes can provide invaluable hands-on training in practical techniques to avoid dangerous situations and defend yourself if needed.

In this post, we’ll explore some of the most effective martial arts styles offered in Brampton’s top studios and classes.

Useful Martial Arts for Self-Defence in Brampton

Let's look at key self-defence styles you can learn in Brampton to boost your safety knowledge and preparedness. Understanding these arts will help you make an informed decision when choosing classes.

Karate: Karate is one of the most widely practiced martial arts and is great for self-defence. Originating from the Japanese prefecture of Okinawa, karate focuses on different types of punches, kicks, blocks, and strikes to disable opponents. By training in karate, you can develop lightning-fast reflexes and powerful self-defence techniques like front kicks, roundhouse kicks, knife hand strikes, and punches. Karate is excellent for learning to keep attackers at a distance with your strikes.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ): Brazilian jiu-jitsu is a grappling-based martial art that teaches you how to control and disable opponents with joint locks and chokes. BJJ focuses on ground fighting and using leverage to manipulate your attacker. By training in BJJ in Brampton, you will learn essential skills like escaping pins, reversing dominant positions, and submitting opponents from your guard, which basically means from the position of being on your back. BJJ is ideal for smaller defenders to be able to control larger attackers. There are some excellent Brazilian jiu-jitsu classes in Brampton for students at all levels, including beginners.

Krav Maga: Krav Maga is an extremely effective, ruthless self-defence system developed for the Israeli military. The focus is on real-world techniques to counter immediate threats like grabs, punches, weapons, chokes and more. In Krav Maga classes in Brampton, you learn essential skills like defending against guns, knives, and multiple attackers. The training is intense, with little time wasted on katas or traditions. Krav Maga classes in Brampton enable you to react instinctively to neutralize any threat.

Muay Thai: Also known as the "art of eight limbs," Muay Thai utilizes punches, elbows, knees and kicks for an effective stand-up striking style. You can develop devastating self-defence skills by training in Muay Thai strikes regularly on pads and bags. Many Muay Thai gyms in Brampton will also teach vital self-defence skills against weapons and multiple attackers. This practice is ideal if you want knock-out punching and kicking power to keep assailants at bay. There are some excellent Muay Thai lessons in Brampton for beginners and advanced students.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA): Mixed martial arts combine techniques and training from various arts like boxing, wrestling, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai and more into one very effective system. MMA incorporates both striking and grappling techniques for well-rounded self-defence abilities. By training in MMA in Brampton, you can learn takedown defences, ground fighting, stand-up striking, clinch work, submission holds, and hardcore conditioning. Quality MMA gyms have expert coaches who will accelerate your skills. MMA is great for realistic self-defence with its full-contact sparring.

Learning Striking vs. Grappling

Striking arts like karate, Muay Thai, and boxing rely on landing hits to damage an assailant. Grappling styles, including BJJ and judo, use leverage, pressure, and holds to control an attacker, often on the ground. Most experts recommend training in both groups to be well-rounded.

Sparring Is Crucial

Look for gyms that incorporate sparring against fully resisting partners. This allows you to apply techniques safely against realistic opponents. Avoid any place claiming to teach deadly moves without live practice.

Finding the Right Instructor

An experienced, patient teacher who keeps things beginner-friendly will enable you to progress smoothly. Avoid “McDojos” that promote students too fast or have lots of extra fees.

Trying Out Classes

Before committing, take advantage of free intro or trial classes to get a feel for different gyms and styles. Make sure the atmosphere and schedule work for you.

Consistency and Patience

Becoming proficient in self-defence requires consistent training. Avoid any place promising mastery in just a few sessions. Be patient as your skills develop.

Cross-Training for a Well-Rounded Skillset

Consider cross-training different martial arts, like karate and BJJ, to deal with varying real-world scenarios. Building a diverse self-defence toolkit takes dedication but is worth it.

Staying Safe in Brampton

While violent crime in Brampton is relatively low, it does occur. Taking practical self-defence classes can boost your situational awareness, confidence, and ability to protect yourself if needed. But avoidance and de-escalation should always be your first lines of defence.

Brampton offers many high-quality martial arts classes that can provide useful self-defence skills if you put in the time and training. Key styles to look for include karate, Krav Maga, BJJ, MMA, and Muay Thai. Finding an experienced instructor and gym with sparring that matches your schedule and learning style is crucial. While violent crime is rare in Brampton, basic self-defence training can make you feel safer and more confident.

MMA vs. Street Fighting: Understanding the Differences

In the world of combat sports and self-defense, two terms often come up in discussions: MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) and street fighting. While both involve fighting, they are distinct in their approaches, rules, and objectives. In this blog, we'll delve into the differences between MMA and street fighting to gain a better understanding of each.

MMA: The Art of Mixed Martial Arts

MMA has gained immense popularity over the years, thanks to events like the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship). It is a regulated sport with a structured ruleset that combines techniques from various martial arts disciplines such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling, and judo. Fighters train extensively in striking, grappling, and submissions to excel in the octagon.

Key Aspects of MMA:

Structured Environment: MMA bouts take place in a controlled environment, typically a cage or ring, with trained referees ensuring safety and enforcing rules.

Technical Skill Development: Fighters spend years honing their skills through disciplined training under experienced coaches.

Rules and Regulations: MMA matches have specific rules regarding permissible strikes, grappling techniques, and conduct.

Weight Classes: Competitors are grouped into weight classes to ensure fair matchups and minimize the risk of injury.

Sportsmanship: While aggression is part of the sport, fighters are expected to adhere to a code of sportsmanship and respect for their opponents.

Street Fighting: Survival in Unpredictable Situations

Street fighting, on the other hand, is less structured and often arises in uncontrolled, real-world scenarios where physical confrontation becomes unavoidable. Unlike MMA, there are no rules, weight classes, or referees to intervene. Street fights can occur for various reasons, including self-defense, disputes, or acts of aggression.

Key Aspects of Street Fighting:

Unpredictability: Street fights can occur anywhere, anytime, and involve multiple opponents or weapons, making them highly unpredictable.

No Rules: Anything goes in a street fight. Participants may use any means necessary to defend themselves or incapacitate their attackers.

Instinctive Techniques: Fighters rely on instinct, basic striking, and grappling techniques rather than specialized martial arts moves.

Dangerous Environment: Street fights often take place on hard surfaces, increasing the risk of serious injury or even death.

Legal Ramifications: Engaging in street fights can have legal consequences, including criminal charges and civil lawsuits.

No Gi vs Gi Jiu Jitsu: What to Wear on the Mat

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is an evolving martial art with roots in Japanese Jiu Jitsu and Judo. If you’re a newbie or even an intermediate learner, choosing the appropriate attire can be a bit confusing. Whether it’s BJJ Gi or No Gi Jiu Jitsu, knowing what to wear can make all the difference in your comfort and performance. This blog aims to break down the two styles and help you decide on the Best BJJ Gear.

BJJ Gi and Its Components

BJJ Belts – The Path to Progress

The BJJ Belts are a vital part of the Gi uniform, signifying your skill level in the art. Your belt will be the ultimate display of your journey, from white to black, each color indicating a specific level of competence and experience.

No Gi Jiu Jitsu and the Freedom it Offers

In No Gi Jiu Jitsu, the absence of the Gi top allows for quicker movements but fewer chances for holds and grips. The standard attire includes BJJ Rash Guard and grappling shorts. The Rash Guard Men BJJ options are available in various designs, while Women’s Rashguard is made to suit a more feminine physique.

Women in No Gi

Women’s No Gi attire includes Womens Compression Pants and Women Rashguard, designed for optimal flexibility and ease of movement. The gear is crafted to wick away moisture, thus keeping you dry during your No Gi training sessions.

BJJ Gear Essentials for No Gi

When it comes to BJJ No Gi, a good rash guard and a pair of quality grappling shorts are essential. Jiu Jitsu Rash Guards are tight-fitting and made from moisture-wicking materials, making them crucial for No Gi training.

What Women Prefer: Womens Kimonos or Women’s No Gi?

Men’s Gi or BJJ No Gi?

Men’s Gi is often considered a staple in BJJ training because of its traditional importance and role in tactics. However, BJJ No Gi offers more freedom of movement and a quicker game, making it equally popular among many practitioners.

Conclusion

Both Gi and No Gi have their merits and downsides, and your choice will largely depend on what you aim to get out of your BJJ training. Whether you’re eyeing the Best BJJ Gi or considering investing in No Gi attire like Jiu Jitsu Rash Guards, the most crucial aspect is comfort and fit. Knowing what to wear can go a long way in enhancing your performance and making your BJJ journey more enjoyable.

So, are you a traditionalist who prefers the Kimonos Jiu Jitsu, or do you lean more towards the freedom of No Gi Jiu Jitsu? Regardless of your preference, Kingz Europe offers a wide range of BJJ Gear for Men and Women, catering to every style and need.

Karate vs. Other Martial Arts: A Comparative Analysis

Martial arts, a world of diverse combat practices, have fascinated people for centuries. Among these, Karate stands out as one of the most popular and recognizable martial arts. However, it is just one piece of the larger martial arts puzzle. This blog delves into the distinctions between Karate and other martial arts, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of the differences that make each art unique.

The Roots

Karate: The roots of Karate can be traced back to Okinawa, Japan. With its origins influenced by Chinese martial arts, Karate evolved into a distinct form characterized by powerful strikes. It heavily emphasizes striking techniques like punches, kicks, knee strikes, and elbow strikes, aiming to maximize speed and power.

Other Martial Arts: Different martial arts boast distinct origins and core principles. For instance, Taekwondo, a Korean martial art, places a strong emphasis on high, swift kicks and dynamic spinning kicks. Meanwhile, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, originating from Judo, focuses on ground-based combat, specializing in submissions and ground control.

Techniques and Emphases

Karate: Karate centers on striking techniques and is renowned for its direct, forceful movements. Katas, predetermined forms, are integral to Karate training and serve as a structured way to practice and refine techniques. Practitioners develop strong stances, swift footwork, and precise striking methods.

Other Martial Arts: The techniques and training in different martial arts vary significantly, tailored to their particular domains. Judo, for instance, specializes in throws and ground techniques, while Muay Thai prioritizes clinching and the use of elbows and knees in striking.

Forms and Katas

Karate: Katas are a fundamental component of Karate, allowing practitioners to hone their skills through structured forms. These forms help improve precision, balance, and the fluidity of movements. Karatekas often dedicate years to perfecting their katas.

Other Martial Arts: While other martial arts also incorporate forms and patterns, they may not emphasize them to the same extent as Karate. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu places more importance on sparring and rolling, while Taekwondo uses patterns known as "Poomsae" but focuses on high-speed kicks and sparring.

Philosophy and Spiritual Aspects

Karate: Karate places a strong emphasis on discipline, respect, and self-improvement. Many dojos incorporate elements of Eastern philosophy, such as Zen, into their teachings. The pursuit of self-mastery and the cultivation of a strong moral character are core tenets of Karate.

Other Martial Arts: Each martial art carries its unique philosophy and set of values. For instance, Judo's philosophy revolves around using an opponent's energy and balance against them while emphasizing mutual benefit and welfare. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu promotes problem-solving and technique over physical strength. Values and philosophies can vary significantly between martial arts.

Sparring and Competition

Karate: Karate competitions typically involve point-based sparring, where competitors aim to score points by delivering controlled strikes to specific areas of the body. This approach is commonly seen in the Olympic Games, where full-contact strikes are not permitted.

Other Martial Arts: In contrast, other martial arts like Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) or Muay Thai feature full-contact competitions with fewer restrictions on strikes. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions focus on ground submissions and positional control. Rules and objectives for sparring and competition differ significantly.

Training and Ranking

Karate: Karate employs a colored belt system to denote a practitioner's skill level. Advancement through the ranks is achieved by demonstrating proficiency in katas, techniques, and sparring abilities. Progress is marked by belt tests and gradings.

Other Martial Arts: Various martial arts have their unique ranking systems. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, for example, uses a colored belt system (white, blue, purple, brown, and black), with promotions based on technical skill, competition performance, and training duration.

In summary, Karate represents just one facet of the diverse world of martial arts. Understanding the differences between Karate and other martial arts is not about determining superiority but recognizing the rich and multifaceted nature of martial arts practices. Whether you're drawn to Karate's powerful strikes, Tai Chi's flowing movements, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu's ground combat, or Taekwondo's dynamic kicks, the world of martial arts offers an array of styles for individuals to explore and embrace.

Nochikan Karate International is an academy that offers world- class training in Shotokan.Nochikan is devoted to promoting and developing, the physical and internal well- being of its scholars.The academy offers classes for children and women.

CORE presents The Co-Op 2023 - Update #01

In this first update, we will announce the full cards taking place on night one of the CORE Co-Op 2023 taking place on March 30th 2023 from the Pico Union Project in Los Angeles, California. Updates and full card announcements for our events taking place on March 31st, April 1st, and April 2nd will follow.

TrustBusters: Answer The Call

In the opening bout, Ari Daivari’s former tag team partner Invictus Khash will compete against New Japan STRONG stand out and one of the most improved wrestlers in recent years, Fred Rosser.

When Ari Daivari sold Parker Boudreaux’s contract to Swerve Strickland, Daivari claimed Boudreaux would still be a “TrustBuster for life.” Ari makes good on that promise as Parker Boudreaux and his Mogul Affiliates stablemate Trench will team up to take on west coast tag team pro wrestling stalwarts Reno Scum, Adam Thornstowe and Luster The Legend.

Ari Daivari has recently associated himself with Tony Nese and “Smart” Mark Sterling, leading some to question his connection to The TrustBusters, regardless Tony Nese will look to put his talents on display against a wrestler poised to have a breakout 2023, Michael Oku.

Swerve Strickland squares off against the mercurial Lio Rush in their first singles match in almost three years. The two were set to grapple last year for the TERMINUS office before Lio withdrew from the contest.

The TrustBusters are looking to settle some unfinished business against Team Filthy. It was in non-tournament action at night two of CORE’s 2022 Trios Kingdom tournament when The TrustBusters debuted their newest member DJ Karl Fredericks. Fredericks had attacked and disguised himself as Team Filthy member Black Tiger before turning on his partners to side with the TrustBusters. Wrestling politics prevented Team Filthy from getting their revenge on DJ Karl and The TrustBusters. But with Karl Fredericks’ recent departure, The TrustBusters team of Sonny Kiss, Slim J, and JeeVeS K will go head to head with the Team Filthy trio of Tom Lawlor, Jorel Nelson, and Royce Isaacs.

And in the main event, Ari Daivari will be adding another chapter to his critically acclaimed and highly competitive series of matches with Anthony Greene.

Ari Daivari vs. Anthony Greene

Masakatsu Funaki's The Quest

Masakatsu Funaki presents The Quest. All matches on this card will be competed under traditional Pancrase rules. Closed fists, elbow strikes, and stomps are banned. Each participant starts the fight with five points, points are lost due to knockdowns or rope escapes, if a competitor is left with zero points they lose by TKO. Fighters will have a ten count to get back to their feet after any knockdown.

Our opening contest will see MMA veteran, most famous for his victory (despite what the history books may say) over CM Punk, Mike “The Truth” Jackson (not to be confused with 73 year old professional wrestler Mike Jackson,) battle it out with amateur mixed martial artist, professional wrestler, and recently debuted professional boxer, Bobby “Bobby Fish” Fish.

The next match will be between notorious behind the scenes pro-wrestling tough guy Cinta de Oro putting on a fight in front of the curtain this time against seasoned MMA fighter turned professional wrestler Blake Troop.

The third match features AEW wrestling star, judo black belt, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner Tay Melo going toe to toe against the current Just Tap Out Queen of JTO champion, STARDOM competitor, and lifetime karateka, Tomoka Inaba.

Next, two veteran wrestlers with an established appreciation for the catch wrestling style and the history of having competed in legendary and highly influential Japanese combat sport promotions (Pancrase and UWFi respectively) will clash as TAKA Michinoku takes on Little Guido.

The semi-main event is a battle of two current AEW wrestlers with very impressive resumes. In one corner you will see Jake Hager, NCAA All-American college wrestler, hat enthusiast, and undefeated MMA fighter. In the opposite corner, NCWA National Champion and four time NCWA All-American, Josh Woods.

And in the huge main event, in a match that you could never see anywhere else, pro-wrestling and mixed martial arts legend Masakatsu Funaki will go one on one with Olympic freestyle wrestler Jeff Cobb.

Masakatsu Funaki's The Quest 01. Mike "The Truth" Jackson vs. Bobby "Bobby Fish" Fish 02. Cinta de Oro vs. Blake Troop 03. Tay Melo vs. Tomoka Inaba 04. TAKA Michinoku vs. Little Guido 05. Jake Hager vs. Josh Woods 06. Masakatsu Funaki vs. Jeff Cobb

JUST TAP OUT Professional Wrestling

CORE has partnered with the JUST TAP OUT Professional Wrestling office to present a showcase event for the JUST TAP OUT organization. JUST TAP OUT was founded by TAKA Michinoku in 2019 and features graduates from the JTO dojo and a select group of freelancers. While most matches are held under traditional rules, ranking matches and King of JTO and Queen of JTO title matches are held under a special set of JTO rules. In these matches (of which there will be two on this card) there are no pinfalls, matches can only end by Knockout, Tap Out, referee stoppage, or TKO. TKOs are based on a three point system, each wrestler begins with three points and they will lose points for rope escapes, a deliberate escape from the ring, or “foul play” as determined by the referee’s discretion. Under these rules, championship bouts have a 30 minute time limit while ranking matches have a 15 minute time limit.

In the opening contest, top US independent prospects Nick Wayne and Kenzie Paige will team against rhythm and Jatap-kun. The masked rhythm is one of the earliest graduates known for her dynamic offense and she will be teaming with Jatap-kun, a mascot like figure for JTO who displays a surprising skill at technical wrestling.

Up next, a young lion from the JTO dojo known for his fast developing striking skills and submission wrestling prowess named Akira Juumonji will face off with high flying lucha based dojo graduate Eagle Mask.

Following that will be a JTO Girls tag match featuring graduates of the same dojo class and frequent tag partners Misa Kagura and Sumika Yanagawa teaming up to battle it out with top JTO prospect Aoi and her partner, former standout performer in Tokyo Joshi Pro and STARDOM before recently becoming a freelancer, Unagi Sayaka.

Another tag match will follow as potential future JTO ace Ren Ayabe, who towers over most opponents at 6’7” and has already drawn the attention of the All Japan Pro Wrestling office, teams up with fan favorite Fire Katsumi, another top prospect who made an impressive if unsuccessful challenge in January for Yasu Urano’s King Of JTO crown. Their opponents will be JTO head TAKA Michinoku who will team with his Just 4 Guys stablemate Taichi.

In the semi-main event, the Queen Of JTO championship will be on the line as twenty year veteran of the joshi wrestling scene and former Queen of JTO Yuu Yamagata will look to reclaim the top spot when she challenges JTO ace and current Queen of JTO Tomoka Inaba, who western fans have recently seen break out in the STARDOM promotion as part of Syuri’s God’s Eye faction.

In our main event, former two time King Of JTO the powerhouse Ryuuya Takekura will challenge the man who dethroned him, veteran of the Japanese independent scene, longtime cornerstone of the DDT promotion, and current King Of JTO Yasu Urano.

JUST TAP OUT Professional Wrestling 01. rhythm and Jatap-kun vs. Nick Wayne and Kenzie Paige 02. Akira Juumonji vs. Eagle Mask 03. Misa Kagura and Sumika Yanagawa vs. Aoi and Unagi Sayaka 04. Ren Ayabe and Fire Katsumi vs. TAKA Michinoku and Taichi 05. Queen Of JTO: Tomoka Inaba (Champion) vs. Yuu Yamagata 06. King Of JTO: Yasu Urano (Champion) vs. Ryuuya Takekura

Senior Division Slam-O-Rama

The final event of the opening night of The Co-Op 2023 will be the Senior Divison Slam-O-Rama, a showcase event for CORE’s innovative senior division. For those new to CORE, the Senior Division, presented by Medicare Coverage Helpline, is open to wrestlers 50 years of age and over and to limit the risk of prolonged physical exertion all matches can be won by a two count.

The opening contest will see two of the oldest active wrestlers in the world go at it as 73 year old Mike Jackson (not to be confused with MMA fighter Mike "The Truth" Jackson,) takes on 76 year old Sheepherder Luke.

The next match will be senior division women’s action as the legendary Aja Kong meets Sumie Sakai, whose retirement tour continues with this bout.

In a match over twenty years in the making, having split their previous two matches, we will finally have our decisive third match. No cages. No Bischoff, No excuses. Jeff Jarrett vs. David Arquette III.

On November 10th, 2022, Masakatsu Funaki lost his GHC National Championship to El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. On March 30th 2023, Funaki will look to get some measure of revenge in senior division action against the father of the current GHC Champion, Dr. Wagner Jr.

In what should likely be a very exciting six-man senior tag team contest, Curry Man will team with the original Psicosis and Damien 666 against the team of Great Sasuke, Tiger Mask IV, and Ultimo Dragon.

Closing out the evening will be a rare treat, a singles match between unquestionably two of the greatest and most beloved wrestlers in the history of lucha libre. Blue Panther vs. El idolo de los Niños, Atlantis!

Q&A: A Retired MMA Fighter Vs. an Armed Group

I have a character who was an MMA fighter, he is retired and now owns a gym where he trains people new to the sport. If he were to get jumped on the street by 4 men with improvised weapons, is his training any good in this situation?

This is a little tricky to gauge because there are a lot of potential, messy, outliers. The short answer is, probably not, and the slightly longer version could be summed up as, “probably not, but even if it is still useful, it’s still not going to be enough.”

As its name implies, MMA isn’t a single, uniform, martial art, while most MMA fighters don’t have combat backgrounds, it is possible (though, unlikely), that you��d find an MMA fighter with training in Military Krav Maga, Systema, MCMAP, or another practical combat martial art. In one of these examples, it is possible their training would be somewhat useful. However, if that’s their background, its highly unlikely they were using it in bouts.

When I say “unlikely,” I can count on one hand the number of Systema practitioners I can find who’ve competed in MMA tournaments. There could be more out there, but these kinds of martial artists don’t, often transition into sport fighting. A good illustration of why comes from the MCMAP training manual, which reminds instructors to watch for, and stop trainees engage in “sports fighting,” during training. All of these practical martial arts put a high priority on ending the fight as quickly and efficiently as possible. While it results in combatants who survive combat with minimal injuries, it’s not going to be an entertaining MMA match.

Having said all of that, if we ignore your character for a moment, and say that you have an ex-special forces operator who is unarmed, in that situation, facing four foes armed with improvised weapons, there is a very real chance that the ex-operator will end up seriously injured or dead.

With an MMA fighter, you’re likely looking someone with a background in Boxing, Wrestling, Kickboxing, Taekwondo, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Karate, or Judo. TKD, and Judo both have practical branches, but with an MMA fighter, they’re almost certainly training in the sports variants of their martial arts. While this results in athletes who are certainly talented, they are training to fight in a very specific situation; one on one, unarmed, with a wide range of limitations designed to ensure the relative safety of all participants. It’s not simply a matter of saying, “well, this time I’m going to just cut loose,” they’ve trained to fight this way.

In some situations, their training can carry them through an actual situation. There’s enough youtube videos of amateur MMA practitioners TKOing an idiot on the street. The key there is the singular. They punch out one individual. They’re not getting into a fight with multiple enemies.

Combat against multiple foes requires you split your attention across the entire group. You cannot afford to lose track of them, because if you do, they will be able to exploit that. Keeping track of multiple foes in the chaos of a real fight is extremely difficult. Everyone’s moving, some are probably trying to flank, and no matter what you do, you have more foes than eyes.

Once you do start taking hits, it’s likely to become a death spiral. Even minor injuries will impair your ability to continue fighting, making it harder to defend against subsequent attacks. This isn’t a death by papercuts scenario, the first few hits might not do much on their own, but they’ll open the victim up to more devastating injuries.

If that wasn’t bad enough, getting hit basically ensures you’re going to lose track of some of your foes. This means that even if you successfully defend against a strike, there’s a real danger you no longer know where all of your foes are, and can no longer defend against some of them.

And it gets worse.

Dealing an armed opponent while unarmed is extremely dangerous. It is something that an experienced martial artist may be able to handle, if they’ve been trained for it. However, there are a depressing of stories of experienced martial artists failing to execute a combat disarm and being seriously injured or killed.

Dealing with an armed opponent means you cannot afford to lose focus on their weapon. You need to know exactly where it is at all times, and you cannot afford any lapses. If you get hit with a weapon (even an improvised one) it will be so much worse than an unarmed strike. You can continue fighting after taking a punch, you cannot continue to fight effectively after taking a blow from a crowbar. Survival depends on finding a way to neutralize their weapon as quickly as possible.

So, here’s a problem, you have multiple foes which require you to split your focus, and they’re all armed, meaning you need to individually devote your full undivided attention to each weapon.

If you’ve found a way to divide your undivided attention, congratulations, you’re now a superhero.

So, is your character’s training any good at this point? Yeah, if he understands how bad the situation is, and runs. Even at his age, he’s probably in excellent physical condition, and it’s very possible he can outrun them.

There is another problem, and it might impact his ability to run. Martial arts puts a serious toll on the body. This is especially true for competitive sports fighters. It’s entirely possible that he’d have mobility issues as early as his 30s. This also feeds into the reason why sport fighters retire at (relatively) young ages, or transition into less physically stressful careers. A career in competitive fighting will absolutely destroy your body. If you have someone who retired from the ring, it’s very likely that, due to a mix of old injuries, they’re physically incapable of fighting effectively. They can still coach people. They can train others. But, their body simply isn’t up to the task anymore. Throwing someone like that against a group of armed foes is a death sentence.

There are ways someone could get out of a situation like this alive. Like I said, running is probably the best option. If your character is in excellent physical condition, they will probably be able to outrun their attackers. If they can retreat to a fortified position, and hold out for help, that’s another option. A much riskier strategy is to immediately neutralize the group’s leader, as an intimidation tactic. This is more about convincing the remaining three that they have no chance of success, however, it’s a bluff, and one that can easily blow up in your character’s face.

Group combat is very popular in visual media because it’s dynamic. It looks cool. When you have an experienced group of marital artists working together, they can turn a group fight into poetry in motion. It’s not real, but that was never the point.

Because group combat is so popular, it can create an illusion about how accessible it is. Fighting multiple foes is extremely difficult and dangerous. Fighting multiple armed foes is the domain of superheroes and action movies.
