Close, but no cigar. MMA stands for "mixed martial arts," and this often confuses people, who think the word "mixed" is referring to a "mixture" of martial arts styles.
This is a very understandable misunderstanding, but it is factually wrong.
In fact, just as a nightclub that serves both gay and straight clientele is referred to as a "mixed" club, the "mixed" in MMA refers to the fact that the sport involves gay and straight men being co-mingled in the ring.
From the very get-go, Carlos and Hélio Gracie always stated that their goal in founding the modern MMA movement was to get straight boys into the ring with gay boys.
By their own admission, they thought it would be "hot," and would help them recruit more heterosexual youth into the gay lifestyle.
