I HATE it when folk go muay thai and bjj are the best arts all other arts are useless cos they dont do well in ufc,etc, and that mma fighters are the hardest in the world, and then disrespect a load of other styles.
I agree that mma fighters and their arts are tough and deadly, but remember most arts were created during a time when they were needed, for them to survive they must have worked for people using them in real combat. Take for example gung fu. I do think that alot of the stuff in these styles are not to practical and are for show only, but wing chun and choy lil fat are two good examples of gung fu styles that probably do pretty crud at mma events, but save people's asses during times like war, real self defence situations etc.
As in wing chun alot of the moves are much more suited to the street with stuff like throat attacks, various eye attacks, knee stomps, and groin kicks. These simple moves are the stuff that will save yer butt in life or death scenarios, alot more quicker and easier to apply than a arm bar, choke hold or whatever, but obviously doing stuff like that would be out of place in a mma event wouldnt it? And before you say well if it doesnt work in the ring how can it work in the street or you found it to be bs when you tried it then just speak for yourself as wing chun has saved alot of peoples asses. Alot of the folk that go to my wing chun classes are people that have successfully applied wing chun in the street like policemen and bouncers. They aint about to join the mt,bjj bandwagon any time soon.Just because something didnt work for you doesnt mean it didnt work for someone else.
Wing chun has also worked in the ring against muay thai. A guy called wai po tang managed to beat a mt guy using wc.Its just a matter of training as most wc folk don't train for sport.
Believe it or not there are stuff thats to dangerous for mma. You honestly think that all sas, special attack squads, marines, seals etc dont have stuff more dangerous than the arts in mma? If russian spys who are experts in one hit kills(yes there is such a thing) enter ufc, i dont think many of the folk there would stand a chance.
Basically what i'm trying to say is that there are arts and fighters that are to deadly for sports, and that not all folk are training to enter ufc.
