Dutch kickboxing is actually incorporated into MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) by some fighters, but it's not as prevalent compared to other striking styles like Muay Thai or boxing. One reason could be that MMA fighters often prefer techniques and strategies from various martial arts to create a well-rounded skill set. Muay Thai, for example, is favored for its effective use of elbows and clinch work, which can be advantageous in MMA. However, Dutch kickboxing techniques such as powerful punches, low kicks, and footwork are still utilized by some MMA fighters, showcasing the diversity of striking styles within the sport.
