Question

Answer 1

If your boyfriend is an MMA fighter, simply go watch a few of his sparing sessions or fights.  You should have the inside track on the 411 if your boyfriend truly trains in MMA.

Answer 2

Watch some fights.  WEC is having a fight tonight on th VS. channel.  Spike TV shows UFC unleashed at least once a week.  Also, this is the internet, there are things like UFC.com, sherdog.com, mmajunkie.com, mmaweekly.com.  Do some reading on the subject.  Oh and don't watch that Kimbo fight if you want to know what MMA is all about.  And reading a paragraph about the moves used in the sport ain't gonna tell you ****, you just have to watch and do your research.

Answer 3

Check out the fight from last night (Kimbo Slice vs James Thompson), the MMA Elite XC put on by CBS that is free to watch.

Answer 4

There is a new invention out, its called Google.  Use it.

Answer 5

if your boyfriend really was an mma fighter, you'd really know more about it...sounds like he's a "wanna-be" that buys UFC gloves, wears Tapout shirts, and rolls around with his buddies in backyards and tells everyone, "I know UFC"; not MMA, UFC...lol...I can't stand those guys!

Answer 6

Mixed martial arts consist of using the most useful techniques from several arts such as boxing , jujitsu , submission fighting , muay thai/kickboxing and wrestling in order to be as effective as possible.  In these competitions you can win by knock out , submission or judge desicion , also hair pulling , finger jabs to the eyes , biting and small joint manipulations are not allowed. The most common moves involved are the kickboxing ones such as the jab , cross , hook, uppercut, roundhouse kick , front kick and side kick , as for ground fighting , usually the brazilian jujitsu and wrestling moves are the more popular and predominant because of their effectiveness.
