If we get back to the original point, as you said above a kung fu fighter does not have to use those techniques unless needed, your example was two men with knives, however the ufc it is not filled with knife weilding twins haha, just one guy and their fists etc etc therefore by your terms it is uneccisary to use those techniques in the ufc.

problem solved.


All I'll add is there is a massive difference between fighting and selfdefence, ufc is fighting, eye gouging etc etc is self defence, its called ultimate fighting, not ultimate self defence.
