Tabs include simple information on ‘The Fighter’, ‘The Sport’, ‘The UFC’, ‘The Fan’, and a ‘Glossary’ page.
For example under ‘The Fighter’ tab, one can find a breakdown of ten styles of fighting that make up “Mixed Martial Arts”, with an explanation of the style, facts, and a map showing the styles origin. Styles include Boxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Freestyle Wrestling, Greco-Roman Wrestling, Jeet Kune Do, Judo, Kyokushin Karate, Muay Thai, Sanshou Or Sanda, and Tae Kwon Do.
