M.M.A. is a mixture of different martial arts. For one example the most commonly used are: Jiu Jit Jiu, Muy Thai, and Shorin Ryu Karate. The fighters are match by weight. The weight Ranks are: light weight 120-150, welter weight 160-175-180, middle weight 180-190, light Heavy weight 200-215 and heavy weight 220-280-300.
