Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a Full-Contact Combat Sport based on Striking, Grappling and Ground Fighting, incorporating Techniques from Various Combat Sports from around the World. The First Documented Use of the Term Mixed Martial Arts was in a Review of UFC 1 by Television Critic Howard Rosenberg in 1993.
Originally promoted as a Competition to find the Most Effective Martial Arts for Real Unarmed Combat, Competitors from different Fighting Styles were pitted against One Another in Contests with relatively Few Rules. Later, Individual Fighters incorporated Multiple Martial Arts into their Style. MMA Promoters were pressured to adopt Additional Rules to increase Competitors' Safety, to comply with Sport Regulations and to broaden Mainstream Acceptance of the Sport. Following these Changes, the Sport has seen increased Popularity with a Pay-Per-View Business that rivals Boxing and Professional Wrestling.
