Rules In The UFC Octagon That May Surprise You

No Comments

When thinking about how many UFC rules there were in the ring I could only think of about five. You may be surprised to see the list below with thirty rules involved. This is quite the a difference from when the UFC first started out. There was literally no rules involved. Check out the list below to see if you are surprised as I was.

Judging criteria The ten-point must system is in effect for all UFC fights; three judges score each round and the winner of each receives ten points, the loser nine points or fewer. If the round is even, both fighters receive ten points. In New Jersey, the fewest points a fighter can receive is 7, and in other states by custom no fighter receives fewer than 8.

Fouls The Nevada State Athletic Commission currently lists the following as fouls: Butting with the head Eye gouging of any kind Biting Hair pulling Fish hooking Groin attacks of any kind Putting a finger into any orifice or into any cut or laceration on an opponent. Striking to the spine or the back of the head Striking downward using the point of the elbow Throat strikes of any kind, including, without limitation, grabbing the trachea Clawing, pinching or twisting the flesh Grabbing the clavicle Kicking the head of a grounded opponent Kneeing the head of a grounded opponent Stomping a grounded opponent Kicking to the kidney with the heel Spiking an opponent to the canvas on his head or neck. Throwing an opponent out of the ring or fenced area Holding the shorts or gloves of an opponent Spitting at an opponent Engaging in unsportsmanlike conduct that causes an injury to an opponent Holding the ropes or the fence Using abusive language in the ring or fenced area Attacking an opponent on or during the break Attacking an opponent who is under the care of the referee Attacking an opponent after the bell (horn) has sounded the end of a round Flagrantly disregarding the instructions of the referee Timidity, including, without limitation, avoiding contact with an opponent, intentionally or consistently dropping the mouthpiece or faking an injury Interference by the corner Throwing in the towel during competition

When a foul is charged, the referee in their discretion may deduct one or more points as a penalty. If a foul incapacitates a fighter, then the match may end in a disqualification if the foul was intentional, or a no contest if unintentional. If a foul causes a fighter to be unable to continue later in the bout, it ends with a technical decision win to the injured fighter if the injured fighter is ahead on points, otherwise it is a technical draw.

Fighters have a small choice on what to wear to the Octagon but most tend to wear MMA shorts but they must have a groin guard, mouth guard and MMA Gloves if they wish to compete.
