Er...it's called mixed martial arts because each fighter doesn't rely on just one martial art to achieve victory.

For instance, you could be the most amazing muay thai fighter, but if you competed in MMA all of that training becomes moot once the other guy does a double leg takedown, passes your guard, and pulls an armbar on you.

That's why old UFC matches are so laughable now. Why bother seeing which style would win when you can take the best aspects of both styles and creatively use both to wreck havoc?

That being said, I've really been into the UFC for around two years or so now. I used to be a boxing fan, but honestly it's been in a sorry state for a while now.
