Mixed Martial Arts stands for alot of diffrent things. For one it stands for the Pride/UFC fights which fighters (highly trained ones) destroy each other on Via payper veiw and alot of people talk about those kinds of MMA. Another form of Mixed martial arts is cross training simply put. Like Someone in TKD taking boxing for better hand work. MMA could also stand for a style or the way something is Studyed or Teached. Like JKD or Hapkido. Hybride martial arts. Since they are mixed together you get a mixed martial art. Mixed Martial Arts also could mean designing your own martial art. Or if you wanted to trade tips on training that another martial artist from a diffrent martial art, You could trade tips on inproving and strengthing attack speed power etc. There are many meaning of MMA . But most of all this is the Cross roads where all martial arts meet for one big BANG.:ubercool:

Look at some of the other forums' descriptions and give us some ideas for here!

 

[theneuhauser]

MMA and hybrid martial arts are 2 different concepts.

i think.:shrug:

 

[ace]

When U have 2 arms & Leg's
How different can they be.

If U Are consintrating on True self Defece.
MMA is a sport but. We a prepareing for
A conflict of intrist.

When it's self Defece on the street
it is by anymeans nesacary to survive.

In the Ring Or cage it's by any means
Nesasary to win with in the rules.

Both make great for training.

How's this?

MMA is the martial arts training geared toward addressing the challenges one is confronted with the three ranges of combat: Kicking/punching; Clinching; and Groundfighting

how's this?
MMA derives effective techniques from many martial arts in order to compile an arsenal that is effective for most any barehanded one on one combat scenario.
