I made this video for our unit's Military Combative Class. I didn't write the script, I just found the videos (recorded some of them) and edited them together.

The script came from my combative instructor. They were just reading it to us at the beginning of the class so I decided to make it more interesting.

Thanks for all the comments and favorites. I made the video while I was taking grappling in the military.

MMA and UFC IS NOT martial arts bear that in mind

[listothis]

OR go and become a master in aikido or traditional choy lee fut and try use it against a Bare Knuckle Champion traveler who’s pint you just knocked over : )

[listothis]

So people should stop referring to people learning ‘UFC’ stuff and say learning ‘MMA stuff’ instead as it is really the whole net benefit of all this UFC stuff since 1992 – better ways to learn how to defend yourself if you need to i.e. MMA….

[listothis]

Fighting as seen in the UFC is not how you should fight in a fight on the street because it’s a sport and the goal is winning as opposed to stopping a guy attacking you with a bottle where the goal is surving but it is closer to anything a traditional martial arts class will teach you.

[listothis]

which is the only bad thing about MMA training... prats can learn how to really fight and hurt people. I respect Martialarts classes as they've always been...but there is just smarter options available that will teach you how to ACTUALLY FIGHT...and that's called MMA (of course theyre are good and bad MMA classes too)

[listothis]

the benefit to learning 99% of martial arts is fun and mental concentration and physical fitness which brings confidence and assertion which even further reduces your likelihood of being in a dangerous street fight etc.. unless you're a prat...

[listothis]

Luckily the chances of being in a street fight once you're an adult are very very small and most people I know have never been in any sort of dangerous fight on a street or while out in a club etc.. most people don't want to fight which is good and with a moderate amount of knowledge about how to act, where to not go, and how to remain calm when a fight seems to find you for no reason and you'll never need to learn military level MMA....

[listothis]

which at some point HAS to include getting hit in the face and being taken down violently or you're never going to know how to fight well when it comes down to it. In fact until you experience a fight be it an actual fight or a competitive b or c level MMA fight or full rule Muay Thai or kick boxing fight you'll never be prepared for the adrenaline dump experience of being attacked or being in a real gloveless street fight.

[listothis]

MMA was born from UFC and visa versa but you will learn to fight in self defence more successfully in Army style MMA training as seen at the end of the vid... against a LIVE oppnent learning MMA in progressive steps against progressive resistence...

[listothis]

MMA did evolve martial arts more than they had in a thousand years in the space of 15 years and is pretty much in or aournd the best we can do... the difference being the fight specific athletism and talent of the individual.
