Ok so martial arts has been around for a long time. Some styles even go back thousands of years. Most countries have a first style of martial arts that was created long ago and is still used and taught in that country today. MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)is a fairly new style that claims it incorporates moves from many styles of Martial Arts. Many MMA fighters claim that it is the best style to use. Martial Arts was created to teach people how to defend themselves and teach moral values. I can not find any moral values in MMA. Also I have seen many MMA fighters that have been titled as "ro fighters" loose to first degree black belts that study a traditional martial arts. I have been studing Kenpo Karate for 15 years and have earned a 3rd degree black belt and I think MMA is TRASH.
Think about this, who would win in a fight, Chuck Norris in his Martial Arts prime or a MMA pro fighter?
MMA pro fighter lol xD i do believe chuck was srudying mma...
either way,
i have been studying Motobu-Ha Shitoryu for 11+ years myself and i went to my first ever MMA fight last night... and I do personally think i would have done better
