Kenpo and MMA By MJS - Tue, 06 Nov 2007 15:53:57 GMT

=========

Since the birth of the UFC, it seems like everyone ran out and joined a grappling school to learn this art that was defeating all comers to the ring. Suddenly schools that normally were only teaching stand up arts, offered grappling as an addition.

That being said..how well do you feel Kenpo fairs to MMA today? If we look at some of the MMA fighters, they devote their life to training. Sparring, training for hours a day..basically they eat, sleep and breathing training. Of course, the average Joe has a full time job, so its hard to devote that kind of attention to ones training.

But taking all of this into consideration, in your opinion, how would Kenpo hold up? Does anything need to be changed, added, etc to the art or to your own personal training?

Thoughts?
