However, fighting in the ring and fighting outside of it are different arenas that, despite overlapping, require a crucial shift in techniques and strategy. They both incorporate many of the same techniques but with largely different aims. In the ring, you fight one individual in a matted and enclosed environment, according to set rules as guided by a referee so that you can win via points, knockout or submission. In the streets, you fight under usually unexpected circumstances against one or more individuals—who may or may not be armed—on rough and open terrain, with possible legal and mortal consequences. Even more extreme, if you’re a soldier in a warzone, you are weighed down with military protective gear and carry a variety of weapons, surrounded by enemies from all sides who are also armed. Thus, every martial artist’s development has to be adaptable to the type of enemy and situation they are likely to face. The great thing is that because many of the mixed martial arts techniques are efficient, simple and direct, they can be adapted to situations outside of the ring.
