Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a full contact combat sport in which a variety of fighting techniques are used, including striking techniques (kicks, knees and punches) and grappling techniques (clinch holds, submission holds, sweeps, takedowns and throws). MMA is exploding in popularity, and is a worldwide phenomenon, driven by the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), based on the concept of pitting different fighting styles against each other in competition. Written by an expert, and packed with full colour photographs, this book takes you through all the moves, step by step, demonstrating techniques. All photographs are modelled by experienced fighters.
