Once, a Chinese friend and I were discussing the differences between “internal martial-arts” and “external martial-arts”.
He mentioned that in earlier China, many martial arts used the six-harmonies method of movement that is the hallmark of the so-called “internal martial arts”. Even today you can find a goodly number of old, pedigreed Chinese martial arts that contain the term “Liu He” (“six harmonies”) in their full title, but over time many arts have devolved to less pure usage of the use of qi, jin, and dantian, regardless of the name they use and the classics that they espouse. Today, because body movement must be completely repatterned, only a small number of arts attempt to use the full six-harmonies movement principles and of course not everyone practicing those arts fully complies with traditional requirements. The “reeling silk” movement of Taijiquan is actually just another way of describing focused six-harmonies movement. The Six Harmonies Basic Theory. Internal Strength.

Fighters like Diego Sanchez are often able to overwhelm their opponents with forward pressure and swarms of punches. It is also what you’re most likely to encounter if you find yourself in a street defense situation against an untrained, unskilled opponent. Common sense would say to pump a jab out into their face, use your footwork and to stay on the outside. But what are you to do if that isn’t stopping them in their tracks? There are several options of what you could do in that situation. After timing your opponent’s entry into closing the distance, you can meet him in the middle using your body (more specifically your shoulder or even head) as a weapon.

Brutal technique used in this fight was banned in the UFC - MMA.tv.
In April of 2000, the California State Athletic Commission voted unanimously in favor of regulations that later became the foundation for the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts.
One of the rules put into place was the banning of headbutts from any position.

However, headbutts may be one of the most effective and under-utilized street fighting techniques. There are many positions in which a headbutt can be landed with great force and accuracy in which the recipient of the blow is unable to defend him or herself.
