Mixed Martial Art
Rules Regulation
A full contact sport that allows a variety of
fighting styles to be used including mixed
martial arts techniques.
These Techniques are

• Striking

• Clinching

• Takedowns

• Grappling

• Illegal moves

• Submission Holds

2
Striking
Kickboxing, Muay Thai and Boxing strikes are the
most popular attacks used in MMA bouts.
3
Clinching
Clinch holds are primarily taken from judo and
wrestling and are used to decrease the effects of
the opponents attacks or the strikes.
4
Takedowns
This technique brings an opponent to the ground
by forcing them off-balance, with the attacker
landing on top, ready to control, strike or
submit.
5
Grappling
Once an opponent is grounded by means of a
takedown, throw or slip, the fighter on top
generally gains dominant position and can strike
to the head using fists, elbows and submissions
can emerge from anywhere.
6
Illegal Moves
Despite its wide-open reputation, many rules
govern MMA bouts. Contests in the UFC fall under
the Unified Rules of MMA, regulating under the
auspices of US state athletic commissions.
7
Submission Holds
Submission holds test the limits of joints and
tendon strength, just as strangle holds and
chokes endanger fighters' necks and can render
victims unconscious.
