Japanese jiu-jitsu may be an effective martial art for mixed martial arts (MMA). This is because this Japanese fighting style works well on the feet, in the clinch, and on the floor. Therefore, many MMA fighters, including Shinya Aoki, Roxanne Modafferi, etc., have used Jujutsu techniques to overcome their opponents.
