BJJ Poll: How Much Does the Sport of Mixed Martial Arts Interest You?
January 2, 2010
Mixed martial arts as we know it became popular when Royce Gracie defeated several bigger, stronger opponents using Brazilian jiu-jitsu when the Ultimate Fighting Championship began in 1993. Now, more than fifteen years later, MMA has grown into a legitimate sport with fans all over the world.
As a Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioner today, how much does MMA interest you now?

Got something to say?



I follow MMA like most people follow football. But I really enjoy it when there is quality Grappling involved.
I like MMA somewhat, usually when I can see people who I really like on the BJJ side like Demian Maia, or BJ Penn. I do like some others like Machida, Silva, and GSP (all the big names), but truthfully that’s all I know. People at my acadmy like it a lot and talk about it, but sitting down to watch an entire card is actually quite boring to me.
