BJJ = real martial art

What? Jesus if you want to go fight Tito just go to Team Punishment at Huntington Beach and fight him stop stating it online. I get the point youre tough and you have an overly high opinion of yourself and your BJJ training and that is why you aren't UFC champion now. Rather than coming online and talking about how youre a BJJ brown belt and you threaten people and can beat people up, go to Beverly Hills Jiu Jitsu and challenge Bas Rutten. Anyway I have nothing more to add. P.S. There is nothing to refute since there is no disagreement other than now a fighter must be a hybrid fighter and hybrid fighters are superior to one dimensional fighters.

Oh as far as your Brazilian girlfriend, I didn't need to know that but whatever.

I just read these threads and you two are somewhat informed about the martial arts. hey clubbin as anonymouse said, go too MMA.tv and go to the forums over there and youll learn a lot more. I don't have time right now but ill post back soon. For now I just wanted to say BJJ is not everything. the gracies advertised BJJ so damn well that I began taking it as well. im a blue belt (if you guys care) and have been doing BJJ for about 2 years. but ive read a lot and talked to a lot of people and the place i go (house of champions) has a lot of people that know thier stuff. BJJ is more of a sport and a tournament art. if youre in the streets and you and your friend are at a bar or a club or out anywhere and some guys start a fight with you in the street, god help you if you decide to go to the ground and fight where while your focusing on one person you will be getting kicked in the head and bleeding onto the concrete. in the streets there are no rules and this isnt NHB cage or ring fighting. its not one on one. and even if it was one on one, if your good on the ground and not good at STRIKING and you are fighting a striker, what if you cant take him onto the ground before he knocks you out with one hit. you have to be well rounded. and yes i agree BJJ would probably be my choice for ground and submission fighthing, but dont think one art will be enough. nowadays if you watch UFC all the fighters have begun to train in more then one art. and in my opinion muay thai kickboxing is the best stand up art. its the best for the streets. have a good stand up like muay thai and a good ground art like BJJ and you will have a better chance. and theres a lot of other things for the streets like krav maga which personally wouldnt be my main choice but its pretty decent for the streets. the one in LA is the main one, its a pretty good place, if you hang around there you will learn a lot. i just began to write about this subject but i dont have time right now. Just thought i would put in a little input in for now.
