Posted by Andy By your same argument, then guys like Nino Schembri and Saulo Ribeiro, who are masters of grappling and BJJ, are completely helpless in an MMA fight. Look at their MMA records... Not very good in my opinion. It is not the system that is useless, it is the practitioner. Just because you study BJJ or Muay Thai doesn't mean you're going to be good. It's all what you put into it. The style is not what makes you good. It's your training methods and training partners... It's no use to argue about what style is better... People stopped doing that ages ago... We all know it's not the style, but the practitioner and his training methods. --Previous Message-- Link: Beijing Jiu-jitsu Academy
