UFC - Ultimate Fighting Championship
When the UFC was formed in the mid 90’s it was marketed as “human cockfighting” and “fights to the death” with an emphasis on violence. It was the true test to determine which form of fighting / martial arts form was best. Royce Gracie quickly showed that Gracie Jiu-Jitsu was the dominant form. Mostly because Royce was good and tough as nails, but the other fighters hadn’t seen it before and just didn’t know how to counter it. Today though, Mixed Martial Arts, lead by the UFC is a tactical sport, like chess on a mat. And if you’re just a jiu-jitsu master these days, you may not last too long.
