To say that a karate or tkd can't fight is just wrong. Simple fact of the MMA is that you are limited if you train in one style. Once grappling takes place most stand up arts are like a fish out of water. They don't know what to do.

What would happen if they told helio that he could only punch and kick and had to defend against muliple people? Nobody gave him that challenge I guess. Because I once saw in a vid he said anyone can kick and punch. In all of his fights, he didn't.

Traditional karate school will teach throws and ground fighting. Karate in it's original form was a "mixed martial art" A fusion of jujitsu, kung fu, and Te( native okinawain martial arts) and most likely other styles from the main land. Just now there is a strong focus on Karate as sport where grappling is not as important. Old school point matches allowed for throws and take downs, ect, but points were only awarded for strikes.

According to the famed Karate Grandmaster Masutatsu Oyama in his book "Advanced Karate" on pg. 13 "The oldest known records concerning combat techniques, hieroglyphic scrolls from Egyptian tombs, dating back as far as 4000 B.C."
