TJS

I heard the tiger schulman got his arm broken by Rorion gracie for talking smack

submission wrestling is cool.

Mcdojo.

someone who isint "trained" can throw a punch someone who isint "Trained" can choke someone that dosent mean they are good at it the fact is boxers dont leanr how to avoid takedowns so if they face someone who is good at it then they arent going to be able to stop it.

funny article. http://www.wowt.com/news/headlines/225316.html

the problem is that 90% of the karate schools out there wont teach you realistic self defense..and simply advertise that they do...false confidence is a dangerous thing...

who would that be?

K-1 rules are the best for Standup fighting. MT is a bit more bruatal with elbows and more knees from the clinch

i have "heard" some people do it so they can get out of arm bars/leg locks, etc easier...but im sure most of it is just cosmetic.

really what "guys" are champs? Tim sylvia, Tito Ortiz, Chuck Liddel, Vanderlai Silva, Antonio rodrigo Noguiera, Carlos newton, BJ penn, matt hughes, murillo Rua,Tank abbot, Frank Mir etc etc etc ..and I could go on forever have all trained in BJJ to some extent.. No stlye has had as much succes a BJJ..now other stlyes are cross training in it and having succes with their own tactics.

The reason why Top boxers would have a better chance at winning against top Muay Thai fighters is this- A) Boxing has a MUCH LARGER talentpool because of how big it is. B) Muay Thai fighters from Thailand are usually much smaller and are not heavyweights..i seriously doubt there is a boxer who could compete with them at their weight class. Dont get me wrong boxing is great and no one does hand better than boxing but MT is alot more brutal. Just out of curiosity have you ever sparred with a Muay Thai fighter? If not i would suggest findnign a gym and trying it out.

That is a very weak argument, no single stlye can compete with todays MMA fighters. but you know what Just about every single top Fighter today has trained in BJJ to some extent..it is just about a neccessity whether you are a wrestler or a striker or whatever...so your argument dosent hold much weight

False, outside of his Pancrase fights Frank has lost one fight to john Lober who he destroyed in their rematch...Frank went undefeated as the UFC middle weight champion. Ken Shamrock is the the one who lost to Royce at UFC 1.

if someone attacks me as in not a "lets go" fight then Me walking away at the end is a victory in my eyes.

dpends if you want good ones or the little TKD/Karate stlye shin gaurds..

so why does TJJ not have the succes of BJJ in MMA or grappling ?

yes your wording confused me..you made it sound like people would not know to tap..

honestly There would be no point ...Chute Box(Muay Thai/BJJ training) had a challange match against Capoeira in Brazil..the result was every single capoeria guy getting brutally beaten and knocked out in the first round..so I dont think they had to use much BJJ.

If it sport grappling judo might be good choice but in general yes Wrestlers as usually pretty strong.

so if someone did tap would you let them go?

LOL that is a load of crap..what Gracie has beaten frank? what BJJ practicioner has beaten frank?

that would be point sparring that means if you touch me with a back fist before my elbows hits you in the jaw you get the win...

I dont think it has many "Weak" spots but you can always learn more from specific stlyes.. for example Boxing is always going to give you better hands Muay Thai is going to give you better kicks/knees BJJ is going to make you a better ground fighter. it really does cover just about every range of the fight but you can always go to a stlye that specalizes at that range and improve in it.

I belive Kajukenbo is a pretty well rounded stlye. I dont know a whole lot about it but I have heard some good things. of course alot depends onthe school/teacher.

a pure grappler usually has a better chance of beating a pure striker.
