The kickboxers were next to evolve and added grappling skills to their arsenal.
Kickboxing also split into two styles described below: "Sprawl-and-Brawl" (prefer stand-up fighting and are careful to avoid takedowns) and "Shock-and-Awe" (no preference, and can attack with reckless abandon).
This appears to suggest that the style of the future is one in which Jiu-Jitsu, Wrestling, and Kickboxing are all equally stressed.

A sprawl and brawler is a kickboxer who has trained wrestling to avoid takedowns and tries to keep the fight standing.
Usually these fighters will study enough submission wrestling so that in the unfortunate event that they are taken down, they can tie their opponents up and survive long enough to get back to standing or until the referee restarts the fight.

King Of The Kickboxers may be the most entertaining of them all.
In fairness to Avedon, it seems that his outlandish performance came more from the encouragement of the director than himself; there are a couple of moments when things get quiet and serious enough that give Avedon the opportunity to show that he can act pretty well if encouraged to do so.
But I have to admit that I probably wouldn't have found King Of The Kickboxers as entertaining as it is now if Avedon had been made to give a good performance.
