well, strikes to the throat are very illegal in the UFC, as are any choke that places the hands directly on the throat, i have often heard them refered to as "rapist chokes". JKD was never designed to be made usable for sport fighting so if you practiced JKD under one of Bruce's original students you're going to be a lethal street fighter that can't use 90% of what you know when you choose to fight under MMA rules.
