TRIUNFO MMA
Judo is a dynamic olympic support that demands physical power and great mental discipline. The Judokas (students) start from a standing position and attempt to lift and throw each other. The goal in Judo is to subdue, pin or obtain an instant victory with ippon (a perfect throw). If a Judoka was not able to obtain an ippon, they would then resort to Ne-Waza (grappling) which implements much of the same fighting techniques as Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
In Japan Judo was derived from various Martial Arts that were used by the Samurai during feudal era. At the time, the techniques used were meant to maim or kill on the battlefield. After the end of the feudal era, there was no longer a need for the training but many Samurai continued to practice and pass down the sacred knowledge. Over centuries of evolution, the warrior arts would branch out to others forms such as Kendo and JuJitsu. Judo would not be conceived until Jigoro Kano founded the Kodokan Institute in 1882. Judo translates to "the gentle way" in Japanese. Although at first glance on may say that there is nothing gentle about this art, once a student has experienced Judo they learn that it is all about going with the flow rather then opposing it.
Muay Thai is a combat sport from the muay martial arts of Thailand that uses stand-up striking along with various clinching techniques. This physical and mental discipline which includes combat on foot is known as "the art of eight limbs" because it is characterized by the combined use of fists, elbows, knees, shins and feet, being associated with a good physical preparation that makes a full-contact fight very efficient.
Muay Thai became popular in the sixteenth century, but became widespread internationally only in the twentieth century, when many Thai fighters won several victories over representatives of other martial arts.[6] The sport of muay Thai is solely governed by the International Federation of Muaythai Amateur and a professional league is governed by the World Muay Thai Council.
Submission wrestling (also known as submission fighting, submission grappling, sport grappling, or simply as No-Gi) or Combat wrestling (in Japan), is a formula of competition and a general term describing the aspect of martial arts and combat sports that focus on clinch and ground fighting with the aim of obtaining a submission using submission holds. The term "submission wrestling" usually refers only to the form of competition and training that does not use a "jacket", "gi," or "combat kimono," often worn with belts that establish rank by color.
The sport of submission wrestling brings together techniques from Folk Wrestling (Catch-as-catch-can), Luta Livre Esportiva, Freestyle Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo and Sambo. Submission fighting as an element of a larger sport setting is very common in mixed martial arts, Pankration, catch wrestling and others. Submission wrestlers or grapplers usually wear shorts, skin-sticky clothing such as Rash guards, speedos and mixed short clothes so they do not rip off in combat.​
Boxing (pugilism, prize fighting, the sweet science or in Greek pygmachia) is a combat sport in which two people engage in a contest of strength, speed, reflexes, endurance, and will by throwing punches with gloved hands against another opponent. Amateur boxing is an Olympic and Commonwealth sport and is a common fixture in most of the major international games - it also has its own World Championships. Boxing is supervised by a referee over a series of one- to three-minute intervals called rounds. The result is decided when an opponent is deemed incapable to continue by a referee, is disqualified for breaking a rule, resigns by throwing in a towel, or is pronounced the winner or loser based on the judges' scorecards at the end of the contest.
The birth hour of boxing as a sport may be its acceptance by the ancient Greeks as an Olympic game as early as 688 BC. Boxing evolved from 16th- and 18th-century prizefights, largely in Great Britain, to the forerunner of modern boxing in the mid-19th century, again initially in Great Britain and later in the United States. In 2004, ESPN ranked boxing as the most difficult sport in the world.​
Mixed martial arts (MMA), is a full contact combat sport that allows the use of both striking and grappling techniques, both standing and on the ground, from a variety of other combat sports. The roots of modern mixed martial arts can be traced back to the ancient Olympics where one of the earliest documented systems of codified full range unarmed combat was in the sport of pankration. Various mixed style contests 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 (UFC).
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) is a grappling art that focuses on techniques such as chokes and joint manipulation to control and subdue an opponent while on the ground. These techniques require little to no strength due to harnessing other forms of energy such as leverage, momentum and inertia.
The art was brought to the United States by the Gracie family in the 1980's, but the roots go as far back as late 19th century. Prior to it's conception as Gracie Jiu Jitsu, Mitsuyo Maeda, Japanese Judoka and Diplomat, introduced Judo to the Gracie siblings while residing in Brazil. It would not be known as Brazilian Jiu Jitsu until Helio Gracie begun exploring the art. At the time, athleticism and brute strength were necessary to train in martial arts. All the brothers trained Judo, but Helio was prohibited due to his light frame and poor health conditions. Although, he was not allowed to practice, he spent much of his time observing his techniques and then later on practicing them in secretcy. During his studies, he began to adapt the techniques to his body structure that would allow him to have the upper hand against much larger opponents by using their own body weight, energy and strength against them. Helio Gracie went on the become a champion and legend in Martial Arts.
