It's never going to. 1. It's typically found in self defense arts let's be honest MMA has a huge anti traditional martial arts thing going on. Go look at the MMA rules and you will see most things that are used in actual combat is against the rules. 2. Broken fighters can't make money The MMA model is to crank out fighters quickly. So things that will damage them will take more time to master. Also once again grabbing a limb to dislocate it is possible but is also against the rules.
@tonytomahawk5160 I understand where you're coming from and i do see a reluctance to embrace orthodox techniques, but I would never say never. Time changes many things. Within the MMA rule sets, they are allowed to brutalize the whole of the leg. Inside/outside thigh kicks, front kicks to the knee, upper and lower calf kicks, foot stomps, not to mention leg locks that are notoriously dangerous for injuries. I think one of the things holding the art back is it's compartmentalized. Striking, wrestling, and bjj. They weren't built together, so they seem not attack the transitions that efficiently. I am of course talking our of my aas and couldn't personally validate this in practice.
Honestly Filipino martial arts have those movements because of weapon fighting and weapon defense, translated into bare fist. And there is only so many ways the body can possibly move that one in a few styles or systems will share moves even if they are based on different philosophy.

Incredible. Very clear and concise. Also your hand speed speaks for itself my god.
Liuhebafa has nice limb destruction as well. Surprised this approach hasn't shown in mixed yet.

Hi Adam. I’ve just discovered your channel. New subscriber here.😊
The Hakka fist almost looks southeast Asian, like some of the Kuntao arts is it possible that the Hakka arts influenced the arts of the Philippines?
