Yeah, I just think it's funny cause all that stuff is very useful in a real fight. That's probably why you can't do that stuff.

I was reading those rules yesterday actually, and although they say UFC is the closest thing to actually combat, its still so far away from it.

yes they are effective, and they are easy to do..thus both partys can do them. they remove things like that so two guys dont sit there biting each other and breaking each others fingers and toes :lol:

And how many of those things can you do in any other sport?

The only edge you have on the street is suprise....

 

Once that is gone the edge goes to the preson who can stay calm.

 

As far as techinques go on the street follow this simple rule. If you got em Smoke em.... LOL

(General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory."

some of those techniques are self defense techniques.

All of the so-called "combat" martial arts like to point at the fact that MMA has rules as a basis for somehow degrading or debunking the UFC and other organizations.

 

Yes, we know MMA is a sport, not a fight. The rules are in place both for fighter safety and to appease the various political forces that threatened the sport in the mid-90s.

 

Funny how any mixed martial artist can clean house in a streetfight, but none of these "combat" masters can compete in MMA because of the limitations placed upon them.

 

Here's a new kata for everyone to practice: EYEGOUGE, EYEGOUGE, BITE, EYEGOUGE, EYEGOUGE, GROIN STRIKE, EYEGOUGE.

 

Master this kata, and you can CLAIM to be superior to any UFC champ. Just make sure you never compete, or your ego will get shattered.

 

Mixed martial artists test their skill against eachother with the maximum amount of realism allowed by law. There are some rules I wish were gone, and others I like just the way they are.

I've never considered MMA to be anything close to a sport. I haven't even ever considered it an art unto itself. I've always considered it more of an ambiguous cloud, shifting and changing as each individual sees fit.

 

I do consider the UFC to be a sport competition, where mainly combatants practicing a MMA approach to training excel. But I do not consider MMA to be a sport itself.

 

Therefore, my opinion is that one should not propagate the use of MMA and UFC interchangeably.

 

MMA is not a sport.

 

MMA has no rules.

 

UFC is a sport.

 

UFC does have rules.

 

Woops! And to answer the original question; Yes, you should use any and all of those techniques on the street, as long as you have trained in how to perform them properly.
