“Combat Course Lessons from the Cage” is back with the 49th installment in a new bi-weekly format. Every two weeks we will analyse two consecutive UFC events in a single post. In order to make the post easier to read on smartphones, we will provide shorter descriptions and fight clips/gifs will not get directly embedded on the page. Moves will also get grouped into main technical categories of the game (boxing, submissions, clinch etc).
As always, the goal is to to expand our understanding of the art as we try to determine a blueprint for success in the most complicated combat sport in the world.
