I find the comparisons amusing. They are calling it a "MMA kick" and "Muay Thai kick"? MMA practitioners are using tools from other martials arts. I think this is a real measurement of the athlete and not the art. National Geographics = stupid.

Yer i agree with you. I don't like the way they are classifying MMA as ONE martial art. Theres a reason why its called Mixed Martial Arts. I've spotted a lot things in this episode thats sligtly incorrect. Though interesting to watch.

technically it is one marital art because its the only art that combines other arts, being able to seamlessly transition from boxing to muay thai to ju jitsu
idk if that makes sense to neone besides myself

MMA is can be treated as a single discipline. However, when someone says i do "Mixed Martial Arts". That could mean wrestling, muay thai and BJJ and variety of MA. There are thousands of a different combinations of MMA.
I wouldn't class these as one martial art.

It depends some MMA fighters learn how to punch in their respective martial arts (Muay Thai, Tae Kwon Do) but some fighters learn how to punch from boxing, also some MMA fighters were boxers before fighting in MMA like Robbie Lawler (I think).

*Sigh* more Tito drama, he was such an interesting and entertaining fighter back in the day but hes become such a drama queen that it isn't even fun to watch him fight.
I'll give him credit, he was a decent trainer and probably should remain a trainer for other athletes, but enough is enough Tito.

Its instinctive for a human to punch in a fight and we as humans have been punching ppl from the stone ages.
Although people say boxing originated in Europe, I don't agree. Europeans dint have any idea of fighting when the Egyptians and Indians were practicing martial arts. Then these forms were spread all over Asia.
Some of you may think its a load of crap but its true. Martial arts have their origins in India and Egypt.
