Mix Martial Arts : Fighting Techniques

As the title explains it, this post is about the main few techniques that MMA fighters use.
First of all, we would talk about the close range fights, where fighters would use the elbows and knees as their main weapon. And sometimes even the head itself. Mid - range fights would be mainly using kicks. While lastly, far range would consist of the punches. And ground fighting which mainly consist of submission moves.

Close combat techniques such as the clinch, enable fighters to get real close to their opponent while locking them, and allowing them self to do close range damage using the knees and elbows. Thus, the clinch is a very efficient method when in very close range as it can wear the opponent out easily. Below is a video on how to do a clinch :
Next, ground techniques. Basically, when on the ground, fighters tend to use submission moves which are from BJJ. Such moves such as the triangle choke, ankle lock and knee lock. Below is a video on how to do a triangle choke:
So, that's all for today, there are much more other techniques that exist in MMA. But, I hope you enjoyed the basic few that I had covered today! Signing off, Lucas.
