Rule #1: BOW TO YOUR SENSEI!!!

Rule #2: Don't go walkin' around dressed like Peter Pan over here.

Rule #3: Break the wrist, walk away.

Rule #4: Forget about it!

I learned these rules after seven seasons in the Octogon! Now bow to your sensei.

31. Throwing in the towel during competition.

Quitting is a foul?

[SergeTk]

I think you should ask this in MMA forum and not CMA forum.

[David Jamieson]

why? lots of us cma guys are into the sport of mma.

but truly, Max, you need to learn to use google for this kind of question.

key words "rules to UFC" , "MMA Rules" whatever.

rulesets are available and on the web for whoever wants em. as is indicated by the links in this thread.


where is capatain obvious when you need him?

there is an unwritten rule especially for UFC

no n*pple twisting

I don't know but if anyone knows of a venue that allows headbutting and unrestricted use of elbows let me know.

Actually it is a written rule:

Fouls:
12. Clawing, pinching or twisting the flesh.

[SimonM]

UFC Fouls I don't agree with (because I've either done them or had them done to me):

1. Butting with the head.
8. Small joint manipulation.
10. Striking downward using the point of the elbow.
16. Stomping a grounded opponent.

Pride Grounds for Disqualification I don't agree with (for the same reason):

1: No head butting
4: No small joint manipulation (control of four or more fingers/toes is necessary)
5: No elbow strikes to the head and face.
6: No intentionally throwing your opponent out of the ring. I mean come on! In traditional Lei Tai matches this was one of the main ways to win!!!


The rest of the rules are no problem. I'm not one of those "if we could tigerclaw and eyegouge we could win" types... I'm just a bit of a brute in close combat, the clinch and the ground.
