History
[edit]The term "Thugjitsu" first emerged with its proclaimed Yves Edwards. Edwards was seen by many as an unorthodox fighter. This was exemplified by Edwards' flying head kick KO of Josh Thomson at UFC 49. Edwards' fighting style earnt him the title "Thugjitsu Master".

[edit]Edward defined Thugjitsu as:
The combination of every range of fighting and is the ultimate combat sport. Boxing, Thaiboxing, Wrestling and BJJ all play an equally important role in Thugjitsu; yet none of these arts is enough to be successful alone.
