this article sounds like it was made up by one person based on nothing.

"hence there are no athletes who claim to be simply a "mixed martial artist" when competing."

this is certainly not true.


This article still doesn't have any proper sources. The first link is ultimately an advertising page for a single club which doesn't help explain the topic nor support the article. The second link appears to be using the term "freestyle fighting" differently than this article. Freestyle is being used simply as a general adjective meaning relatively free of restriction , rather than the specific use here as "a synthesis of various styles of martial arts". This would be akin to describing young kids grappling together as freestyle wrestling, yet this is not THE freestyle wrestling as practiced in the Olympics. Essentially this article is still unreferenced for quite a while now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Meok (talkcontribs) 10:41, 27 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Still, after several more years have passed, not a single reference adorns the page. So I'm going to merge with mixed- hybrid martial arts. It might actually be more of a simple redirect, until such time as there is a reference for this topic (on which the content of a freestyle subsection of the mma article may be based).
