In the world of martial arts, the pan comes easy. You will see people starting their martial arts journey and giving up too soon just because they feel it’s too violent for them. On the contrary, you will see people everything a hard to adjust to the pain and the injuries. Even during the training session when there is no opponent involved, you will still get to see that injuries will become your constant partner. Skin rashes, redness, bruises, broken nails, hair loss, and much more will become constant. However, amidst all these issues if you take care of yourself you can not only beat all the injuries, but you will also get to see that you are performing much better. Progress is the only thing that will keep you going and it will then become easier for you to stay motivated. Even if you feel injuries are too much for you, you can still keep in mind that in the world of martial arts, the way you fight on the mat and in real life is very different.
When you fight on the mat, everything is
controlled. You will know when to start and when to stop. When the opponent is
too much there is always a mediator involved and even if not you can always
back off. To make sure both parties and safe and they are not pushing it, both
audience and mediators play a very significant role. However, in some areas,
the tournament management also set the rules and fix some boundaries before the
fighters’ stars. These boundaries and rules help with the process and let the
fighters know which of the moves cannot be used. This is not just limited to
some basics if you look at the overall progress o martial arts you will notice
that fighting style has changed. This is not just limited to fighting styles
and preferences but the association that handles the martial arts styles
usually comes up with updated guidelines simply removing the deadly moves that
can cause injury. This helps in making the game the same for both fighters on
the mat.
With the help of this write-up, we aim to
look at some of the most deadly moves in the world of martial arts. We will
then also look at how these moves are important, why they were discarded, or
whether are they still in practice. Finally, we will see what kind of damage
can be done with these moves and if t are reversible.
Rear-Naked Choke
Rear naked choke is valid in the field of
martial arts most people practice it as well. However, experts believe that
with the right pressure and the right timing, this move can be completely
weaponized into a piece of killing equipment. The basic idea is that the player
stands behind his opponent and then with the help of his elbow and hands, he
tries to choke the opponent. Since he is standing at the back, the opponent
cannot see where to apply pressure and how badly it is tangled. Before they can
see what’s going on and how to find an escape, it’s either too late or the
damage has already been done. In most cases, this can lead to loss of
consciousness, however in some cases when the hold is very light, this might
not be as painful as most of us would like it to be.
Eye Gauge
Eye gauge is banned in several martial
arts torment and style mainly because of the potential harm that is done and
since he is a sensitive part of the body. In most cases, if you put too much
pressure, it can rip the cornea out causing permanent damage. When not handled
well, this can cause blindness and there is no way to recover. In short, t is a
deadly move that is banned by almost all the tournaments and all the martial
arts styles.
Elbow Strike on Neck
Elbow strikes are usually very dangerous
and they can harm the person. If not handled properly, they can result in
damaging the windpipe and affecting the food pipe as well. With such a
sensitive and vital part of the body, you cannot take too much risk. With just
one elbow strike at the wrong position, you might end up killing the opponent
completely or causing some irreversible damage. A better way to cater to this
issue is to avoid this move completely. This is the reason most companies end
up banning this move completely and even worse some call it criminally
dangerous.
Penetrating Heart Elbow
This is a kung fu move that usually
attacks the chest area. In some cases, the opponent gets a hit directly to the
chest region. The goal is to attack the lung or the heart. However, if you are
unable to measure your body strength and the damage you can cause, you might
end up potentially attacking the lungs and the heart of the opponent. This will
cause permanent damage like puncturing the lung or reducing its capacity and in
worse cases, it can stop the heart as well. For some people looking for control
can be very challenging which is the reason most tournaments ban this move
completely.
Flying Knee
The flying knee is a move used in muay
Thai and it is potentially one of the most diversely used and yet most
dangerous styles of attack. For this move, the fight gets to hold the opponent
and then fold up the leg to bring up the knee. Usually the folded part of the
knee land somewhere in the mid of the torso and depending on the location it
can cause some real damage. However, in some cases, the knee folds hands on the
chest area if the opponent is tall enough. This attack is not just based on
location but also impacts the body of the opponent because the leg and knee are
two of the strongest body parts. Also, the bone density of the leg is much
higher.
Round Kick
Round kick in taekwondo is one of the
most sought-after skill-based kicks. Most people love the idea of this kick so
much that it become their favorite and they keep using that throughout as their
signature move. However, there is no denying the fact that it is a very
dangerous move. The way you uproot yourself and the way you make a complete
circle while making sure you hit the opponent at the right spot is a little
challenge. In most cases, the fighter loses a bit of control, while in others
the fighter might end up kicking the opponent at the wrong location. Also, with
a jumping and kicking technique, there is a high chance that you might end up
missing the location and this will cause some real damage.
Liver Punch
Liver punch is generally a boxing move
but it can also be used in other striking styles, especially in the case of
Muay Thai, MMA, and BJJ. The biggest issue is that the liver punch
holds all the power and directs it to the location of the liver. As a result,
there is a high chance you will have a rupture of the liver and in a worst-case
scenario, some nerves might get damaged. This is quite common and can cause
serious and irreversible damage. Most people think that this punch is far too
painful that it can fracture and rupture the liver. As a vital organ, you will
be risking the life of your opponent by using this technique.
Why do You need To Know About
Deadly Moves In Martial Arts?
Over the years most martial arts styles
have evolved. You will notice that simple martial arts moves that were once popular
either became outdated, obsolete or they were banned. The main reason is that
when you get on the mat, it is more of the competitive side that you need to
show and in the process you can pull a move that can destroy the opponent,
their ability to move, or their body in any way. For most people, this means
that when they cannot use it on the mat, they might as well abandon it
completely. However, experts believe that it is much better to know about these
moves, practice them, and then use them during street fights. Especially for
women who feel stuck in a place or a surprising situation, these deadly moves
can save their lives.
Bottom Line
In the martial arts world, moves that
have the potential to kill or cause permanent damage are usually banned right
away. However, there are a few moves that might not have the potential to kill
someone but when they are used effectively they can damage the opponent
permanently. Experts in the field believe that each tournament has different
rules based on how much medical assistance they can provide, where the
tournament is held and how old is the tournament. Usually, when the tournament
is held in Asian countries, socially Thailand, where people are already
familiar with bloody martial arts styles like Muay Thai, this is pretty common.
Also, you will notice that some tournaments try to make the game so safe for
the players that they ban variations of the same move so they can avoid any
possible accident.
