Mixed martial arts, also known as MMA, is a full-contact combat sport that combines techniques from multiple disciplines including boxing, Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, and wrestling. The goal of MMA is to either knock out an opponent or force them to submit by application of joint locks or chokes. A good MMA fighter should be proficient in both to effectively defend against opponents’ attacks and mount effective counterattacks.
