  • Decision. When the fight lasts all the round and no stoppage has been announced, the mixed martial arts combat is determined by judges.
  • Disqualification (DQ). This comes about if the martial artist smashes one or more of the previously mentioned policies once or frequently.
  • Forfeit. A martial artist can declare a lose before a match commences if he’s injured, or during the fight if his mentor brings in the towel
  • Knockout (KO). A knockout is when a martial artist seems to lose consciousness for a few seconds.
  • No contest. Very rare, takes place if both mma fighters break the guidelines, or another odd scenario, just like a punch leads to bleeding which halts the battle, but it was an prohibited blow.
  • Submission. If one martial artist accomplishes a submission hold, the martial artist cornered in the hold can consider loss by tapping out on his opponent’s physique or the floor, or through a spoken statement. Several beaten mma fighters fail to tap out and become incapacitated. In these instances, the referee demands an end to the fight.
  • Technical knockout (TKO). This happens if the ref stops the battle.
