I trained with the UCF club, for like maybe a month. I trained before with Master Ron Little in Pensacola, FL.

yeah, yeah, yeah, a true Bruce Lee/Jun Fan JKD fan would know that there is no JKD style. His style was no style. It was a theory. In esscense, Bruce invented MMA crosstraining (please don't flame me, I don't mean this is any kind of literal sense). 1. Alertness 2. Loss of Ego (no need to prove you da baddest mamajamma) 3. Black belt in Run-Fu 4. Lots of friends 5. Krav Maga 6. Muay Thai or Kyokushin 8. Judo (for ippon throws) 9. Wrestling/BJJ 10. Gun-Fu (only added last b/c you can't possibly expect to be the only person with a gun, can you?)

You can't say one is better than the other. Different situations call for different techniques. In the street against one guy, I'd go for Judo, one ippon throw is all you need IF the guy is attacking you AND you can prove it. If you are subduing a non-violent non-compliant person (a drunk, a protestor, etc.) you want aikido, believe it or not. If you are being attacked by a couple of guys you want Run-Fu. You must give the parameters to compare the arts. In an NHB situation, I'd take BJJ + wrestling over BJJ + Judo, unless we mean kodokan judo. In a street ATTACK (not dumb little squabble of which person is badder), I'd take either Run-Fu or Muay Thai (if only one guy) depending on situation, but this is only if it can be proven that I had no choice but to defend myself. While bullshitting with friends, BJJ and/or wrestling wins .

I did Moo Duk Kwon stle TSD, and everything we learned was in Shotokan and Shito-ryu classes when I moved to Orlando. A similar thing happened to me, Ben, I went into class warming up with Bassai and the instructor got all pissy about me "mocking" their high-level form as a "white belt". I promptly told him where I learned it and that I have a black belt in TSD and he apologized. I've given up TSD/TKD though, I wanna experience more full contact stuff, thinking about kyokushin karate or muay thai.

Work on posture. Basically, you should be confident enough in your posture and your ability to hold your opponent down to not think twice about going for a sub before you start seriously sub training. If I'm going for an armbar from mount, I can't be worried about opp trying to elbow escape, I have to be confident that I can hold opp down. (not too shabby for my first post )
