In Infinity War, what is the fighting technique used by Thanos during the fight with the Hulk?

Question

In the beginning of "Avengers: Infinity War", Thanos and the Hulk had a very intense fight:

While the Hulk fights like he's brawling in the street, Thanos is more composed and posing in stances like in most martial arts, so he seems to be using a specific fighting technique. Moreover, his style looks like something between boxing and/or krav maga, but the fight ends quickly so unfortunately we only see a few of Thanos' moves, as

So my question is: What is exactly Thanos' fighting technique?

In-Universe info would be preferable, but out-of-Universe would be also ok if the former is not available.

I don't have a direct answer of a style, but this breakdown doesn't note anything exotic in the movements, pointing out that it's generic, if well choreographed, upright striking like you might see in an MMA bout, almost all hands until the head grab into the knee strike.

I believe it to be judo.
He seems to understand judo, judging by how he uses Hulk's weight against him, and seeing as how he uses a lot of grappling while fighting, such as when he fights Tony on Titan.
