ABOUT KIDS KICK:
Beginning in the 80s some new, revolutionary martial arts tournaments began to emerge in the mainstream. The U.F.C., Pride, King Of The Ring, Shooto and the N.F.C. became a proving ground for martial artists and their particular styles. The three disciplines that consistently win in these reality based events are Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Boxing and Kickboxing (Muay Thai and North American Kickboxing).
