The Greatest Boxers Of All Time

In any sport, it is difficult to determine which athletes are the best the sport has ever known. Partly this is because there is no way to truly compare the fighters from different eras and partly because people have strong opinions about athletes they love or hate. To select the greatest boxers of all time, one must use variables that include overall records and the quality of their competition as well as more subjective areas, such as showmanship.

Nutrition Should Be An Important Component Of Your MMA Program

If you really are serious about becoming a professional MMA fighter, not only do you have to work hard in the gym, you also have to create a balanced dietary plan. Proper nutrition will strengthen your body, make it less prone to injury and improve your focus.

The Record Book Of MMA

Within the scope of modern MMA, dating back to the first UFC event and the creation of universal MMA rules, there have been many records set and later broken. Some of the records are still held today, but as the months and years pass, fighters continue to improve and set the bar higher.

Increase Your MMA Impact

Many MMA athletes came to the sport as experts in one specific area, such as wrestling or kickboxing. While having strong skills in one area is great, to become successful, it is important to build multiple skills. More and more fighters are continuing to train in different styles of fighting, making them more versatile and powerful in the cage. There are many skills you should have in your MMA arsenal; here are a few key choices.

Gear You Need For MMA Training

For those who take a weekly Jiu-Jitsu class or perhaps a kickboxing class, no special gear is needed. Your regular gym clothes will be fine. However, if you are focused on becoming a professional MMA fighter or want to engage in hard core mixed martial arts training, then you do need to invest in some special MMA gear. This doesn’t mean that you need expensive designer clothes and designer gear; you don’t have to break the bank to get started with some basic MMA equipment.
