  • 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.

    An Outlaw Practice: Boxing, Governance and Western Law Ian J*M. Warren A Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Human Movement, Performance and Recreation Victoria University 2005 FTS THESIS 344.099 WAR 30001008090740 Warren, Ian J. M An outlaw practice : boxing, governance and western law Abstract This investigation examines the uses of Western law to regulate and at times outlaw the sport of boxing. Drawing on a primary sample of two hundred and one reported judicial decisions canvassing the breadth of recognised legal categories, and an allied range fight lore supporting, opposing or critically reviewing the sport's development since the beginning of the nineteenth century, discernible evolutionary trends in Western law, language and modern sport are identified. Emphasis is placed on prominent intersections between public and private legal rules, their enforcement, paternalism and various evolutionary developments in fight culture in recorded English, New Zealand, United States, Australian and Canadian sources. Fower, governance and regulation are explored alongside pertinent ethical, literary and medical debates spanning two hundred years of Western boxing history. & Acknowledgements and Declaration This has been a very solitary endeavour.

This study aims to analyze this promotional language sportscasters use by approaching it from the linguistic phenomenon of metadiscourse. This will be achieved by utilizing a theoretical framework adapted from previous research on eSports commentaries. By comparing a traditional sport, in this case mixed martial arts, with that of the eSport of Super Smash Bros. Melee, the aim is to see what differences can be found between the two sports’ commentaries and their use of metadiscursive promotional language. After comparing these two sets of commentaries, the results show that there are some differences in how promotional language is used to enhance the understanding and excitement of their respective sports.
