Common terms for scoring in martial arts include points, rounds, and submissions. Points are awarded for effective strikes, kicks, or grappling maneuvers, depending on the martial art and the specific competition rules. Matches are often divided into rounds, with judges scoring performances to determine the winner. In some styles, a submission, which forces an opponent to concede, can lead to an immediate victory. The scoring system varies widely, reflecting the techniques and objectives of different martial arts disciplines.
