Full-contact is a type of combat sport where participants engage in striking and grappling techniques with minimal protective gear. This format allows for a higher level of intensity and realism, as athletes can deliver full-strength blows and execute various maneuvers. Common examples of full-contact sports include boxing, kickboxing, and mixed martial arts. In full-contact competitions, fighters are often required to wear specific safety equipment, such as gloves and mouthguards, to reduce the risk of injury. Matches are typically overseen by referees who enforce rules and ensure the safety of the participants. Scoring is based on the effectiveness of strikes and overall performance during the bout.
