COMBATIVE SPORTS
WHAT ARE COMBAT SPORTS?
• It is safe to speculate that combat sports have been around for as long as people have
inhabited our planet. Boxing, as well as wrestling, appear to have existed before the
emergence of advanced societies. They’ve been there for centuries, and their fame has
only grown through the decades.
• This page provides a brief introduction to combat sports, along with some interesting
background information.

MMA
• Martial Arts is a comprehensive fighting sport that integrates
methods from numerous fighting games and combat sports
from across the world, focusing on hitting, wrestling, and
ground combat. Mixed martial arts (MMA) contests take effect
from the inside of a fence and are sometimes alluded to as
cage combat for this reason.
WRESTLING
• To wrestle is to engage in a bodily contest between two
opponents, each of whom seeks to gain and maintain
dominance over the other. Matches in the ring
necessitate the use of wrestling techniques, including
such clinch fighting, tosses and knockdowns, locks,
pinning, as well as other fighting holds.
FENCING
• Fencing is one of three inter-related combat sports. Foil
sabre and épée are also the three new fencing
specializations. Contemporary fencing is split into three
key areas; each employs a unique weapon type and has
different regulations.
MUAY THAI
• In Muay Thai, you’ll learn a variety of hitting and gripping
techniques, both while standing and in close quarters. Art of
eight limbs is a term used to describe this practice because of
the synchronized use of knuckles, elbows, ankles, and shins.
The origins of Muay Thai can be traced back to Indian kung fu
traditions.
TAEKWONDO
• Kicks to the head, whirling jump strikes, and fast
kicking abilities are what set Taekwondo apart from
other martial arts. World Taekwondo practice
tournaments award bonus points on strikes
incorporating spinning jabs, kicks toward the face, or
both.
SUMO
•Sumo is a form of proper competitive
grappling in which a rikishi (wrestler)
attempts to throw or otherwise cause his
adversary to fall out of a circle or to the
floor using only his hands and feet.

grappling, groundwork, and surrender. It emphasizes
ground fighting skills like taking an opponent down,
controlling their posture, and forcing them to
surrender with physical restraint or joint locks.
BOXING
• Boxing, despite being amongst the oldest known
games, is also one of its most renowned. Through it all,
boxing has become a multi-billion commercial activity.
Because of the sport’s widespread appeal, boxer jargon
such as “underneath the belt” has entered the
vernacular as a figurative expression.
KARATE
• Karate, which was developed in Japan, is widely recognized as top
martial art. However, the precise figure is hard to determine, there
are likely over 100 million people who practice karate worldwide
today. It is a combat sport based on Chinese combat sports that
emerged in the mid-twentieth century and emphasizes the use of
fast attacks, such as knees, fists, kicks, and elbows. Karate is
traditionally taught with an emphasis on fighting and restraint
techniques.
MARTIAL ARTS
• Like boxing, MMA is an old full-contact sport that dates back
approximately three thousand years to Greek Culture and
features a fusion of other martial arts. Contemporary mixed
martial arts (MMA) has exploded in popularity in recent years.
Many supporters of mixed martial arts (MMA) think it will
eventually surpass boxing in prominence.
