bet365.co.uk – Ultimate Fighting, one of the world’s most controversial yet popular sports that has grown massively over recent years. It is a sport that originated in USA, and is what is known as a Mixed Martial Art (MMA). It was initially launched as a single event tournament to find the best fighter possible irrespective of their fighting style.
Initially it was seen more of a brutal gathering than a sport as their was a no holds barred theme to it, a sport that is not as brutal these days since until a political pressure forced them to change. UFC is now followed by fans and shown on TV in 34 different countries. Although the sport dropped it’s no holds barred tagline, it is still brutal, the only rules in today’s events are no hair pulling, no eye gauging, no fish hooking, no groin strikes and no biting…everything else does still stand. UFC is now a monthly pay-per-view event and is fast approaching the landmark century.
Many competitors have made the switch from other sports, such as boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, judo and even the sports entertainment WWE. The fights are contested in an octagon cage. There are five different weights in the sport, those being Lightweight, Welterweight, Middleweight, Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight. All fighters must wear specific shorts in the cage, and also no shoes, of course shoes can give the fighters an advantage. There are five ways in which a match can be ended, those are technical decision, disqualification, forfeit, technical draw or no contest, the latter of the two both mean that there is no winner.
