  • Le Mixed Martial Arts Entre Innovation Et Hybridation : Genèse Et Développement Techniques D’Un Sport De Combat De Synthèse
    A paraître dans Sciences sociales et sport. Le Mixed Martial Arts entre innovation et hybridation : genèse et développement techniques d’un sport de combat de synthèse. Étude empirique de la diversité des techniques victorieuses à l’Ultimate Fighting Championship. Matthieu QUIDU. Professeur agrégé d’EPS à l’École Normale Supérieure de Lyon. Chercheur associé au Laboratoire sur les Vulnérabilités et l’Innovation dans le Sport (L-ViS ; EA 7428, Université Lyon 1). [email protected] Résumé : Le Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) s’est constitué en tant que sport de combat de synthèse à partir d’un projet originel de confrontation des différents styles martiaux. Nous examinons l’autonomisation de cette discipline à partir d’un processus, non prémédité, d’hybridation et discutons l’idée suivant laquelle l’intégration de différentes spécialités de combat produirait nécessairement un enrichissement gestuel. Inversement, le MMA professionnel est marqué par un double mouvement paradoxal de rétrécissement et d’uniformisation techniques, dominé par les frappes de poings et qui résulterait de la conjonction de facteurs économiques, médiatiques et réglementaires. Abstract: The Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) was established as a synthetic combat sport from an original project whose aim was to confront distinct martial styles. We underline the hybridization process - not planed – which has generated the emergence of a discipline sui generis and discuss the idea that the integration of various specialities produces inevitably a technical improvement. On the contrary, the professional version of MMA is characterized by a double and paradoxical dynamics of narrowing and standardization, dominated by the striking (especially with the fists), which would result from the convergence of economic, media and regulatory factors.

Also known as Vale Tudo, No Holds Barred (NHB), Cage Fighting, Ultimate Fighting, Pride Fighting, Sougo Kakutogi Focus Various Hardness Full contact Olympic sport No Mixed martial arts (MMA), popularly known as cage fighting or ultimate fighting is a full contact combat sport that allows a wide variety of fighting techniques and skills, from a mixture of other combat sports, to be used in competitions. The rules allow the use of both striking as well as grappling techniques, both while standing and while on the ground. Such competitions allow fighters of different backgrounds to compete. The roots of modern mixed martial arts can be traced back to various mixed style contests that took place throughout Europe, Japan and the Pacific Rim during the early 1900s. The combat sport of Vale Tudo that had developed in Brazil from the 1920s was brought to the United States by the Gracie family in 1993 with the founding of the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Professional MMA events had also been held in Japan by Shooto starting back in 1989. In due course the more dangerous Vale Tudo style bouts of the early UFCs were made safer with the implementation of additional rules, leading to the popular regulated form of MMA seen today. Originally promoted as a competition with the intention of finding the most effective martial arts for real unarmed combat situations,

Aoki was exactly on the 154 pound/70 kilogram weight limit for his fight with UFC veteran McKee, who then hit the scales at 153 pounds/69.5 kilograms. Their fight, which headlines the New Year’s Eve event, has been nearly two years in the making. Of the other 14 fighters on the DREAM 18 card, all except Denis Kang (35-15-2, 2!

He hit the sauna for an hour and made weight on his second attempt, touching down at 185 pounds/84 kilograms for his middleweight fight with Melvin Manhoef (26-9-1, 1 NC). Brooks was 1.2 kilos overweight for his 154/pound/70 kilogram meeting with Japan’s Satoru Kitoaka (30-11-9). He was given two hours to lose the excess, but returned to the scales after one hour to make a second attempt. He was still .5 overweight and was given another hour to hit 70 kilograms, which he managed on the third and final try.

  • CONOR MCGREGOR Is De Grootste Ster in De Vechtsport
    ’S WERELDS MEEST CONTROVERSIËLE MMA-VECHTER OOIT JACK SLACK CONOR MCGREGOR is de grootste ster in de vechtsport. De man uit Dublin heeft in vijf jaar meer bereikt bij het Ultimate Fighting Cham- CONOR MCGREGOR CONOR pionship dan wie ook in de bestaansgeschiedenis van de organisatie. Van een onbekend talent in 2013 tot de eerste man die houder is van twee titels tegelijk. McGregors opmars binnen respectievelijk de veder- gewicht- en de lichtgewichtranglijst zette de vechtscene op zijn kop. Maar zo moeiteloos als McGregors zegetocht ook op het oog leek, in werkelijkheid was het geen gemakkelijke weg en zijn toekomst is verre van duidelijk. Aanvankelijk leek hij gewoon een jongen die martial arts-technieken met zijn vrienden trainde in een schuur. Zonder enige toekomst en onder het oog van zijn bezorgde ouders joeg hij een onwaarschijnlijke droom na. Niemand kon voorzien dat hij een van de grootste pay- per-viewattracties ter wereld zou worden. Dit is niet het verhaal van een sportman met een groot talent die voor het succes geboren was. Dit is een boek over een jonge kerel die door zijn bloedstollende vastberadenheid en zijn ontembare geest het ge- zicht van mixed martial arts zou worden.
