Believe it or not even styles like Shotokan have changed over the years, 20 years ago it looked different from now
Doesn't make it more effective though

Also not all will evolve into the same, although in MMA you have and high change of ending up on the ground, that doesn't mean that the same is true for real life
As a result some will still not pay much attention to groundfighting

What you see in for instance Karate is not evolving into something new but rather look at the very old to see what was lost, this way people have found that grabling was an intergral part of Karate ( no groundfighting I think)

What art other than MT ( slightly) and BJJ as a result of MMA events have actually really evolved?
