I gotta go so I'll make this quick.
All matches are not supposed to end up on the floor. Ending up on the mat in a match means yuo suck or yuo took throw.
Martail arts such as aikido, and judo, and someitmes ninjutsu, trains a person to land well and get ak on their feet as quickly as possible.
And inf act ost forms of martail arts uses techniques from aikido, which is a form of wrestling, that allows yuo to use your opponents strength against them or your stength against nature i.e. the mat
And in most tournaments hitting the mat is to your advantage. if you can get up quickly and land with minimum damage done to the body.
Although last time I checked, all
organized tournaments in America have rules against death blows, head shots, and shots below the waist. In some Asian countries, there are no regulations for most of these things and falling in this case would be to your advantage.
if you still move and can get up, you will continue to fight. Staying down almost gurantees that you won't have to go to the hopspital.
Although i've seen one tournament in America, where a person was knocked to the ground and the opponent used basic gold belt
ill bo karougi and damn near killed the guy. And he had the advantage and the sensei did not stop the fight or call a foul.
Althought hese cases are rare I am sure.
