Did Conor McGregor quit? To tap or not to tap

[Mr. Punch-Out!!]

There is no martial arts aspect in the ufc.

Judo, Jiujitsu, karate, kung fu, krav mag, muay thai.

These are disciplines of the martial arts. They are things that need to be studied.

Again, just cuz you learn some basic punches & kicks doesn't mean you are a martial artist.

Do you honestly think those are just basic punches and kicks they use in MMA? They use certain types of punches and kicks, the kinds that doesn't leave you open to certain attacks and they have to be trained to do that, just as they have to be trained to have a ground game to be able to defend themselves against grapplers. That means that, yes, they have to use techniques from different styles, including the ones you just mentioned. You make it seem like nobody uses those styles in MMA. Ronda Rousey uses Judo, remember? Then that's the Brazilian Jiujitsu, in which we know how often that's used in MMA.

So don't think it's that simple. These aren't just ordinary punches and kicks you see here. These are chosen punches and kicks for a reason.
