is it possible that a ninja had a chance in a mma fight to win due to the rules ???

i mean ( i know it is a bit narrow minded) i didn't see any good skilled ninjas in figt also when i tried to exam the techniques also the way a punch was thrown

well but when i see hatsumi sensei fighting in the vid i see a godskilled man but the others aren't that good skilled that's why i am asking myself this stupid question !!!!!

[bufuadmin]

@robertacho89 everything is possible..... perhaps the reason why you did not see any good skilled Ninja in a fight was because you didn't look well enough perhaps not.... ultimately its not the effectiveness or lack of the art but rather that of the practitioner.....

[bufuadmin]

@robertacho89 someone once said its not about the art or style but about the person......

[Dmasterman]

ninjutsu don't work in MMA ;D

[bufuadmin]

only for people who don' know how to use it ;)

[bufuadmin]

Hi, thank you for your nice comments. Yes its Bujinkan Dojo guided by Shihan Eduard Divantman.

ever seen a juji-gatame used in MMA? it was being used in japanese jujutsu and ninjutsu 500 years before judo or BJJ existed

[scream4urlyf]

Ninjutsu is a battlefield art not a sport like MMA its way to dangerous and Ninjutsu helped influance judo and jujitsu infact the inventer of one of these arts was a student in a Ninjutsu school that specialised in bone breaking, but now its got a lot of restrictions put in place so they can be used in competion sport and MMA so if you were to use Ninjutsu in the ring it would be pretty much the same at what you already see because you take out all of the nasty stuff used for killing and maiming

[MrLeicamaster]

Very good stuff!

los ninpo no tenemos permitido participar en torneos de combate deportivo oficiales porque se nos entrena para comite y matar

@robertacho89 It could be that the ninjutsu fighters lack fighting experience. Ninjutsu is, as far as I know, not a martial art where you see lots of tournaments, where mma on the other hand is all about fighting in the ring. Ninjutsu is mostly used as a technique for self defence, where mma is about beating the crap out of your opponent. Therefore, perhaps the experience you get in the ring as a mma fighter gives them a advantage because they are used to the "real deal" with adrenaline pumping

[Altarion666]

Ninpo doesn't fit on a MMA ring, but most of the tecniques of ninjutsu are based, or are variants of the traditional jujutsu, so if the bjj are some of the best fighteers in MMA, why shouldn't a ninja? I mean, the ninpo, the ideology and intention of the attacks in ninjutsu, can't be used on MMA, cause the pretend to kill or break the enemy, but the techniques, well used, are the same as other martial arts that are succefull in this sport.

@bufuadmin i agree but not all martial arts are born equal, look at boxing compared to muay thai, obv the latter is far superior as it uses 8 points of contact to boxings 2. i guess the real question is are the techniques of ninjutsu effective in a world where the modern fighters spend 8 hours a day training their punches and kicks rather than there sword fighting skills? your training to catch a one off punch, in muay you train to strike until your oponent is down.

[lukegmurphy]

people need to understadn that Bujinkan is not a "modern" martial art where there is a lot of focus in tornaments figthing with rules...etc.

it was a way of life and encompasses more than just the taijutsu.

And the martial aspects were designed for the battle field and non convential fighting. i.e. killing from behind in secret, etc.

getting a Bujinkan fighter to fight in a ring as per MMA rules is the same as getting a kick boxer to fight as per the rules os normal boxing. very restrictive.

[ninpo4life]

@robertacho89 Bufuadmin is right, and I like your open-mindedness on the subject. Most anti-Bujinkan individuals spout hate and disrespect. In addition to considering bufuadmin's response, look up Steve Jennum on UFC. He's a cop and was trained in Togakure ryu ninjutsu (a school from the Bujinkan), and was quite a good fighter on UFC. You can go to my favorites to see him fight.

@robertacho89 "ninjas" dont fight in MMA because they dont train in MMA. they dont train in MMA because MMA has rules that violate the principles of ninjutsu (eg. nothing is off limits in ninjutsu but you cant hit to the back of the head in MMA). That being said, does that mean that "ninjas" dont have any other means of dealing with adversaries? no of course they do. the training and the purpose is different. Im sure they COULD train for MMA and do well but most dont feel the need to bother.
