The thing is whenever I see any video claiming a hapkido guy is fighting MMA or anyscombat sport I never see anything that is really much different at all from Judo, Wrestling, and Jujitsu styles. Nothing really is unique.
I think hapkido only works on people who grab your wrists or is trying to get close without coming off as an attacker in a street self defense situation. In straight up squaring up mode I dont see much of hapkidos techniques ever used that are unique to hapkido.
@buddy2000529 ok.. well there are a few locks in daito ryu aikijujutsu that use your legs as a lever to lock your opponent's joints... and a couple in hapkido =]P and most of the time theyre very useful
@ApollosInsight Actually most of hapkido is "allowed" (not to the full extent but legal) in mma, just not fingers. The problem is that there's no point as most mma fighters tape their wrists so that the wrist can't move, thus you can't use a joint lock on it. Plus the gloves really make it almost impossible to use. The elbow techniques require an instant break to be effective anyways so they can't be used to full extent, but are "allowed". Only thing that comes to mind would be a figure 4 throw.
In events like MMA, the full arsenal of Hapkido can't be used b/c of the limitation of rules. In Vale Tudo however, I think that it can be successfully used.

@ABluishBaby I know i was saying that i wouldn't cross train in Daito ryu aiki ju jutsu for MMA because of those wrappings.

@mycroftOwns I guess there goes my idea of cross training Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu? Dang. Whatever, maybe the nerve pins though...
