QQ.com MMA Portal

QQ.com has more than just the Art of War videos. They have a MMA portal, including fighter profiles (on the left, Zhao Zilong). If you check out Dai Shuanghai's profile, you'll notice his cartoon is wearing traditional Mongolian wrestling clothes. Although the fighters in Art of War are all "chinese", most of them come from Inner Mongolia. Mongolian/Chinese get good results in a lot of combat sports, especially grappling sports, since wrestling is a huge part of Mongolian culture.

Personally I think it's pretty cool to bridge traditional Mongolian wrestling with modern MMA.
