Moves to Remember: UFC Fight Night 134 & UFC on Fox 30

From time to time, I like to share my personal definition of our great sport, a definition that is obviously stated in these three words: Mixed Martial Arts.

There are five individual sports/martial arts which comprise Mixed Martial Arts. The commonly mentioned ones are the following four: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, freestyle wrestling, Muay Thai, and boxing. Arts like karate , catch wrestling or sambo can often replace some of the aforementioned arts depending on each athlete’s fighting background.

The fifth art is that what I like to call MMA-specific techniques.
