Ultimate Fighting has taken the world by storm, and I believe that it is the future of mixed martial arts. With UFC fighting you get to watch many different styles of fighting combat against each other from boxing to grapplers you get to see who is the best fighter in the world.
I love to watch ultimate fighting because it gives me a chance to analyze which types of fighting styles are the best. As a teenager I was heavy into kickboxing, and latter started Thai Boxing training as well. But, if I could pick one style of fighting that I think is the most beneficial in Mixed Martial Arts combat it would be jujitsu. Jujitsu fighters learn to pin down their opponents, and place them in holds such as an arm bar and make them submit the fight. I think with the set up of the UFC network this is the most influential style of fighting, and leads more people to victories than any other.
If I were in ultimate fighting today I would spend 90 percent of my training learning Thai boxing and Brazilian Jujitsu. I personally think with this combination of fighting styles it would make you an unstoppable force in the cage. The true greats in mixed martial arts learn to master several styles of fighting instead of depending upon just one.
One of the things I believe draws people to UFC fights is the pure violence involved in a fight. When you watch a ultimate fighting match you are getting to see grown men fight with gloves that are barley thick enough to cover their knuckles, and they can throw knees, elbows, shin kicks, leg kicks, and place people in submission holds. This is pure adrenaline at its peek.
It is interesting to me to watch Mixed Martial Arts turn into a multi billion dollar industry with the UFC network. Some UFC fights make more than forty million dollars for one night on pay per view. This is an astronomical figure, and there has been nothing like it since the Mike Tyson days.
I do not believe that we have seen the peak of UFC fighting but rather we are just starting to see the beginning of this great sport take off. With Tap Out and other camps coming out of the wood works it is causing rivalry and the public is eating it up. It has truly set itself as the Super Bowl of fighting. With more and more sponsors jumping on the UFC bandwagon I believe the best is yet to come.
One final note is that this sport has only been around for a few years, just think about when the younger teenagers and children start training and start to see fighter come up with skills beyond our belief. I personal love to watch the adrenaline pack fighting that come from a ultimate fighting battle, and I believe there are millions of others that feel the same way that will keep this great sport alive.

Never happen. I have watched one new fad martial arts after another come into public popularity since the 1960's. Each time new schools for the "flavor of the month" start popping up everywhere. some are run by qualified instructors and teach legitimate technique. Many are con artist or individuals that don;t know that they are not qualified. In any case after a few years something else comes along and the ignorant public is swayed and now believes that the new "flavor of the month" is the magic bullet. It is always considered to be superior to traditional martial arts. Meanwhile those old guys like myself and a few other here on Y/A just keep doing what we are doing. It is not because we don;t know any better. It is because we have seen the real martial arts and know that properly used it is as good as anything out there. It is true also that 99% of the so called traditional martial artists think they are doing the real thing when in fact they are still doing the basics in a way that just does not work well in many situations. Those are the people that the mma guys and many others think is the real traditional martial arts.
I do believe that the mma fad is bigger than most past fads. But I do believe that within 5 years we will suddenly hear about some martial arts that we had not heard of before. I've nothing against Krav Maga. But it is a perfect example. I've trained over four decades in various martial arts. Even so I first heard of Krav Maga only about 2-3 years ago.
People who fight in the UFC are experienced and often feel each other out.
In the local shows most don't have any experience. They just go out there and flurry as hard as they can. Be prepaierd for someone to rush you and train for that.
That's what happened in my first fight. I lost. Not because he was better but because he took me by suprise.
Take your time. Train until your trainner says you are ready. 6-12 months.
Start in ameture shows. You can get experience there and it won't count on your record. I went to pro's straight and now wish I had started in ameture.
Well here are some good MMA excises that I use
