An Investigation to Compare Injury Analysis of Mixed Martial Arts with Other Mainstream Sports

Daniel Kleckner and Ashley Zimpel

Abstract

Injury rates for many of the mainstream sports have been studied and documented, but a comprehensive literature review yielded no results on the relatively new sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).  We will observe a regional Mixed Martial Arts event to establish baseline injury data.
