if you train at a PROPER MMA dojo you wait until your sensei says you are ready. You can only be deemed ready if you can:

catch a fly in the chopsticks (to test your reactions)
perform the deadly "MMA-kata-that-none-dare-speak-of" (to test your physical fitness)
survive 15 days and nights in the lotus position without food water or shelter (to test your power of will)
defeat sensei in a game of chinese checkers (to test your mind)

IMO if you dont do this you shouldnt fight at all :D
