Can you headbutt in MMA?

Question

Can you headbutt in MMA?

Answer 1

No.... But that is a loaded question.LOL

Answer 2

No and you shouldn't because if you hit someone with a headbutt you'll not only hurt the opponents head but including yours. MMA Doesn't allow headbutts for some reason.

Answer 3

No.

Headbutts were simply removed from MMA because they were devastating while requiring no real skill to perform, and gave the impression that it was a streetfight instead of a real sport.

Answer 4

nope

Answer 5

No

Answer 6

i don't think there's any contact sports that allows head butting...so therefore NO

Answer 7

like frank said not in most sanctioned mma fights(especially in the U.S.) however some vale tudo fights you can such as Rio Heroes  

Answer 8

No.

Not anymore.  In the early days of the UFC, you could headbutt as much as you wanted.  It was a special weapon of Mark Coleman, who would take his opponents down and headbutt them (along with conventional strikes; he is the father of "ground and pound").  It was finally outlawed around the middle teen UFCs.  I can't remember which one specifically.

Answer 9

Not in most MMA. In Vale Tudo competitions you still can.

Guys like Mark Kerr and Mark Coleman were the reason why headbutts were removed from MMA, they were just too devastating.
