Zoo EXTREME Sports Performance

It is hard-pressed for any other "new" sport to claim that its popularity is greater than that of Mixed Martial Arts. A simple google search finds new sports including:

​

1. Earthing - a new 21st-century sport combining sprint running and swimming.

2. R-World - invented sports and games of the future by Doug Yurchey.

3. Hantis - four tables and a ball

4. Supa Punt - a one-on-one kicking game.

5. Blo-Ball - table tennis without the paddles, you blow.

6. ​

MMA is commonly referred to as the fastest-growing sport on Earth. If you take into account the American male demographic ages 23-35, MMA is more popular than the NHL & NASCAR. What separates MMA from these 2 and other American professional sports, is that MMA is literally world-famous. The Ultimate Fighting Championship seemingly the most popular, but it is not in regard to the number of the viewing audience. Based out of Singapore, ONE is Asia,'s top organization for MMA with an enormous Asian viewing audience. I am affiliated and I have worked for both ONE and the UFC. UFC paved the way for the sport, it has the highest-paid fighters and without it, there would likely be no ONE Championship. I give all credit to the promoter, Dana White. He persevered and turned a 2 million dollar investment into a multi-billion dollar empire. Dana made MMA palatable for most viewers that I could only assume, cover most demographics. It spawned as a brutal blood bath to become an elite athletic performance activity worthy of being promoted as an Olympic event in 2024. I say activity because the United States does not yet classify it as a sport. There are, however, 60+ countries hosting competitive amateur MMA in their respective countries. Going forward I will explain amateur rules as it pertains to youth as well as prescribed coaching practices. All is intended for enabling a safe and productive means for school-aged students to not only participate but to also grow within the sport of MMA.
