Why do you not see Aikido fighters in the UFC or Pride Fights?

And please don%26#039;t tell me because it is a %26quot;peaceful%26quot; martial art. If anything, Aikido can be one of the most deadly martial arts. Is it specifically banned? and if so, why?|||Whenever the fighters are taken to the mat, aspects of aikido is being used, as well as judo. It is not as obvious as the stand up boxers, muy tai kick boxers or jujitsu grapplers but that%26#039;s why it is a MIXED MARTIAL arts. I don%26#039;t think there is a fighter that is trained only in aikido that fights MMA in the UFC or PRIDE. There are so many types of martial arts and it seems that other martial arts have proven to be more effective in parts to make up a complete MMA fighter.|||its more of a defense then offense type of fighting.|||No really. Aikido is Defensive and sphyrical. It is a mental state. Only use what is needed to escape.No martial art styles are banned. Hell, no designated style even is needed.If a purist Aikido trained person goes into the octagon against an agressor he will just avoid at best. That is Aikido, a mature and effective defense.|||Aikido.. is not used to hurt.. it is used to take down a person.. not to kill or strongly hurt people..





it can be deadly tho. but the UFC is a violent fighting league.. unlike the use of Aikido|||cause it dosn%26#039;t work.
