Is Aikido really banned in MMA?

[Pressure Project]

UFC isn't real fighting....it's a "sport" like boxing with ridiculous rules.

If you think what you see in the UFC are "the best fighters in the world", you are seriously uniformed.

 

[Roop Holstry]

Judo/sambo an art for men who are realist.

Aikido an art for delusional pussies

 

[orangecuse]

Do you not know some basic things from Aikido and some basic MMA rules?

As easy as it is to make fun of aikido, there is a reason it is taught to prison guards...

 

[DaRivv20]

Small joint manipulation is banned. No idea why but it it is.


Why is small joint manipulation banned?







If it wasn’t Jason Delucia would be GOAT!!

Aikido techniques are perfectly legal, they just don't hold up under the pressure of a fight in most cases.

Who hurt you? Was it some hot aikido chick?

 

[JbModest]

mmm, most people get beat up in Judo then switch to Akido as their bodies break down. Akido is more of a philosophy of being able to defend yourself without doing undo harm to your opponent. Akido is based on small joint manipulation, so any main techniques you learn in it wouldn't translate into MMA at all, as those are illegal.

Nicely put.

Aikido doesn't do the vast majority of these lol.

It revolves around throws and wristlocks which are legal. They just don't work under pressure. Akido is not not a practical martial art. It is philosophy of avoiding conflict centered around low aggression katas

 

[Patrick Jane]

Which Aikido techniques use small joint manipulation?

 

[thewhiterooster]

you don't get out much do you?

Also that was not what you asked about
IF Aikido worked we would see it in the UFC.

One of the reasons I am not a big fan is I once read a blog by a black belt / instructor in Aikido, he wrote he was getting fat and needed to find something to get in shape.
If you train a martial art regularly and it does not keep you from getting out of shape..
well... Thats a no from me dog.

I have trained BJJ and Kick boxing with people close to 60 and they got in shape.

I am not saying training martial art X
should get you in peak condition..
BUT if you train 3 times a week and still get fat and out of shape.. Its imo sign its not really a good art.

Lol at the shaming language. I made my case as to why aikido sucks. No aikido fighter has ever made it in any levels of mma.

Lol at " hot aikido chick" as if they do any form of exercise. They just sit in seiza position and pray to the picture of the dork who found aikido.

Also there was a well known aikido YouTuber who sparred, lost and had the humility to quite aikido and train jujitsu.

Utah is where I saw it. Buddy of mine was an instructor.
