Cage fighting, also known as mixed martial arts (MMA), is a full-contact combat sport that combines various fighting techniques from disciplines like boxing, wrestling, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Competitors fight inside a cage, which is designed to keep the fighters contained and ensure safety. The sport has gained popularity due to its dynamic nature and the diverse skill sets of the athletes involved. Fights are typically held in rounds, and competitors can win by knockout, submission, or judges' decision. Organizations like the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) have played a significant role in promoting cage fighting, showcasing top fighters and events worldwide. Safety regulations and weight classes are enforced to protect the athletes.
