Cage Fighting Artical on how not to LOSE

Surfing the web I found a website about cagefighting. they have a different opinion on how dangerous cage fighting but I was reflecting more on the UFC organization there are other organizations that go by some different rules in the MMA sport here is some of the artical from How To Fight . org....

Cage fighting is a martial arts sport that has come to be synonymous with mixed martial arts, although mixed martial arts can be fought in any type of arena.


The cage in this case refers to the high metal wire enclosure that surrounds the fighting platform.

Practitioners of the sport typically come from many different disciplines, and cage fighting techniques usually involve everything from boxing to kicking to wrestling holds and take down maneuvers, and in some cases, even street fighting techniques.

It is one of the most brutal and physically demanding combat sports around today, and the potential to suffer a permanent injury or even to be killed in the ring is ever present.

There are three distinct phases to combat in cage fighting. These are stand-up, clinch and ground. Each of them requires entirely different sets of skills, and most combatants typically excel in only one or two of these.

There are fighters however, who have worked to develop their skills to an extraordinarily high level in all phases.
