Most of the contests between competitors based on UFR (Universal Fighting Rules) regulations. The most interesting were: Point Fighting (technical fight to the first hit), Free Fight (MMA fighting), Musical Forms (very spectacular “art forms”to music), and UFRRules (original UFR federation regulations).UFR Rules has become very popular, because it combines several rules of martial-arts.The first round is based on boxing rules, the second round allows on kicks to the head and torso, and the third is based on K1 rules with a low kicks and knee hits.
Among the youngest most popular was Touch Contact contest, fight on foam sticks.
