What MCMAP does have is a goal of providing cutting edge input into the most likely scenarios that one would encounter in a combat situation and the training is to that end. They have even codified the training into an actual MOS so there is a continuoue schema for betterment and team cohesion. They even add the raised heart rate (variable) along with the 'testing phase' trails to "raise the bar" so all can learn to be in the mode for immediate action for self defense and this is where the adrenaline counts
When I was in they really didn't have anything so formalized. We had things like SERE, French Commando Training ect. Which indirectly touched on the things you've mentioned. Also worked with and in support of 7th and 10th groups SF. very unique individuals with highly trained skill sets.
Met the Mr Gong, a while back.
Reading what happened it was something that probably he could not have stopped himself from doing.
From our brief encounter didn't seem like it was in his personality.
My point was that often times people can not get past their conditioning.
The OP "the difference between self defense and sport fighting".
IMO, One is a choice and trained for, the other a possibility one hopefully not realized.
In some of the styles I used to practice they cultivated and developed a fighters mind set for lack of a better word.
The idea of self defense was replaced with self offense, with no real in between. the focus was different. The mind set was not
neutral, open to options, with not engaging or backing down, being one of them.
After awhile not something I found useful in life.
Cultivating an aware natural neutrality in both /mind/body, I've found to be very difficult but most useful.
