Great Gifts For People Who Love MMA

By Rod Bourgoine


The holiday gift giving season soon will be upon on us and once again we have to rack our brains to find the perfect gifts for everyone on our lists. If you have an MMA fan on your list then you are in luck. There are many great gift ideas for someone who loves the sport of MMA, and here are just a few ideas.

Obviously, if your loved one is someone who already works out at a MMA gym or perhaps belongs to a boxing gym, boxing club or takes Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes, then buying special gear is always a great idea. You could get anything from fight shorts and a rash guard to gloves or boxing shoes or other equipment they might need. Some companies also offer gift cards so your recipient can select exactly what they want and need.

There are also lots of great MMA-related books that might make a fun gift. You could check out titles by Anderson Silva, BJ Penn, Georges St.-Pierre and Randy Couture. Some books are instructional guides and others motivational or autobiographical. Bruce Lee also wrote several books, which can be very motivational. There are also quite a few good MMA periodicals that would make a good gift. Magazines such as Ultimate MMA Magazine or Fight Magazine are just a few that might make your gift recipient happy.

Another fun option would be to start up a collection of MMA DVDs for your loved one. There are several excellent MMA movies, most notably "Warrior," which is a great movie all by itself, but definitely a must-see for MMA fans. A few other titles include "Redbelt," which is about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, "Bloodsport," and "Fight Club." Bruce Lee is often considered to be the father of MMA, so purchasing a few of his great films also would be good idea. Consider "Fist of Fury," and "Enter the Dragon," or even purchase the series "The Green Hornet," which stars Lee in his famous role of Kato.

For children who are MMA fans, you could purchase a cool UFC action figure. There is a series produced by UFC that includes fighters such as Georges St.-Pierre, Kenny Florian, Lyoto Machida and many more top fighters. Another option would be to purchase a wall decal featuring a favorite UFC fighter. There are huge, life-size decals of everyone from Anderson Silva to BJ Penn to Jon Jones and many more.

There's nothing quite like actually going to a live MMA event and really becoming part of the action. So buying tickets to a UFC, Bellator or King of the Cage event would certainly make any MMA fan happy. There are events throughout the year at various locations around the country, and there are also many smaller organizations that host MMA events and even events that showcase specific forms of martial arts, including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Muay Thai and others.
