Mixed martial arts is the most dynamic sport on the planet. Physical tools necessary to excel as an ultimate fighter include strength, endurance, speed, eye-hand coordination and power.
In layman's terms, power is referred to as explosiveness. Physiologically, explosiveness is the ability to deliver force quickly.
In short, possessing explosiveness means that a fighter can transfer his strength and speed through his strikes quicker than his opponent.
With the evolution of athletes in this world, each subsequent generation is becoming faster, stronger, quicker and more explosive.
The UFC has benefited tremendously from this evolutionary tract of Darwinian theory.
The explosive abilities of Bas Rutten and Frank Shamrock were a rarity inside the famed Octagon. Nowadays, that explosiveness is the standard that most mixed martial artists possess.
Even though more fighters possess all the necessary traits needed to be successful inside the cage, a select few practitioners stand above the rest with respect to their explosiveness inside the Octagon.
