Proof Mixed MMA is Best Period

Ben to dive deep into the world of mixed martial arts. We kick off by exploring the concept of "Flow," a method introduced to Ben by Helio, focusing on adaptability and anti-fragility. Ben shares how Flow became essential for him, especially as a smaller fighter, and how blending multiple martial arts—from Capoeira to Jiu-Jitsu—elevated his skills. He explains how mixing styles allows for improved timing, rhythm, and full-body control, making for a powerful foundation both on and off the mat.

Ben also clears up common misconceptions about martial arts demonstrations, especially those that focus on fluidity, like Capoeira. He describes real-life situations where this flow approach has provided the edge. We discuss how blending martial arts can spark new moves, as Ben recounts successfully using Kung Fu-inspired techniques in Jiu-Jitsu competitions.

We wrap up by touching on a key insight into the mindset of elite fighters like Gordon Ryan: the difference between simply playing the game and aiming to win. Ben explains how this winning-focused mentality applies to not only martial arts but to any pursuit in life. Don’t miss this conversation if you want to understand the deeper mindset of a true martial artist!
