Acronym for Mixed Martial Arts, which is a sport that combines all the martial arts you can think of, under the same rules. The sport isn't mainstream (yet), and has had trouble from some politicians who are trying to ban the sport, when there has not been a single death in a sanction MMA event, where as boxing has 6 deaths a year in sanctioned events. The main organistion in America is the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship). In Japan it is Pride FC. The main obvious difference is that UFC fighters fight in a cage, Pride is in a ring. There are several new upcoming organistions such as Strikeforce and the WFA.

Get the mma mug.Mixed Martial Arts. A sport in which competitors spar on a soft mat using safe techniques from various modified combat systems. The most well known MMA promotion is The UFC, which was originally formed in the early 90's by Rorion Gracie to bring in business for his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu dojo. Although it was originally marketed as a "No holds barred" tournament with no weight classes & limited rules, The UFC eventually sold out and repackaged itself as a polished safe sport in which high school jocks could compete for shiny belts. Techniques consist of elevated TRT levels, cauliflower ears & dementia pugilistica.
Joe: Man did you see the MMA on the weekend? How about that Omoplata that Diaz used?.
Jim: Yeah it was nice, good thing there was no one there to kick him in the head when he pulled guard.

Get the MMA mug.Probably the most overated sport ever. Consists of two tattooed and brainless men/women fighting in an octagon/ring/mat with no regard for human life. Humans weren't made to kick eachother's ass.
MMA FAN: Hey want to watch some UFC?
Me: Nah, I'd rather watch fake wrestling. I don't know what's so great about UFC. If I want to see a fight, I can just go to the flagpole after school.

Get the MMA mug.Incontrovertible evidence of the dumbing down of America. This "Sport" represents the worst, most base aspects of humanity. Two bald, tattoo laden, muscle bound sub-humans enter a ring (or octagon, which, ironically enough, most MMA fans are incapable of defining), and commence what any level headed on-looker would believe is a strange combination of gay sex and struggling over the world's last twinkie.
The fans of this sport have about as much civility as a rabid dog with a missing leg, compliments of a wood chipper. If anyone dares to question its legitimacy, be prepared for lots of "what bitch!" or "get in the ring fucker!" or "I beg your pardon sir, but I have no other method by which to compensate for the fact that my 3rd grade teacher molested me. I hear by challenge you to an MMA duel."
You need only look at definition #7 for a prime example of this.
Towards the end of the Roman Empire, the Roman Senate instituted a policy they called "Bread and Circuses". They knew their government was falling apart, so they decided to keep people fat, dumb, and happy by making entertainment available to the masses. MMA defines this. It is the escape of every unskilled, uneducated slob to live vicariously through each fighter, living out every violent fantasy they've ever had stored away.
All in all, it's a bunch of testosterone laden douchebaggery, throw in some self-masturbatory chest beating, and you have right there, ladies and gentlemen, mixed martial arts.
