Can you actually break down how the UFC is tailor-made for BJJ? Is it the 5 minute rounds? The ref stand-ups? Or is it the mandatory lack-of clothing? Maybe it's the mandatory gloves, so people can hit harder than they would in real life? Or is it the cage, which people use to crush grapplers? Or all the techniques that are illegal? Throat grabs/ elbows to the head and such, things they use at GJJA; maybe that's how it's tailor made for BJJ

@iwantastiffdrink Then we don't disagree on much after all. I would never take someone to the ground when there are more than one. All the Gracies ever wanted to prove was that their art could beat standup arts 1v1 because standup arts neglect the ground game. To be a complete martial artist these days requires studying at least one grappling art (Judo/JJ/BJJ) and one standup art (Karate, Kung Fu, etc, though I would not recommend TKD, cough). The Gracies themselves acknowledge this.

I should have said gjj is good. The family is very friendly.

[IFironfingers]

Bjj is good. The family is very friendly. It must be obvious by now that grappling and kick and punch systems are both important. Also, you must add the gouge and claw.

@ashalchi no martial art can take multiple opponents efficiently.

[IamVeryFrozen]

@ashalchi its not while you can control punches, the guard is punch safe.

@AdverbAdjective Some brands are better than others, but taekwondo schools are notoriously weak in teaching defense. Hand techniques are de-emphasized. The kicks are cool but many are not practical in a real fight. You'd be better off practicing functional kicks in Muay Thai for example. (Looking back, I should have mentioned muay thai first, and I neglected it completely). Any art that has a realistic sparring component should be favored as well.

@tim72184 why would you not recommend tkd? just wondering

Read the news in October, 2002 - Gashuku (Kenyu-Ryu Karate Association Brazil) AKKB - ASSOCIAÇÃO KARATÊ KENYU-RYU BRASIL

With few participants, but to a very high technical level and with specific courses of Jiu-jitsu and karate (Daniel Sete Câmara) and Ki Breathing (Vail Mungai) and Special Techniques (Akio Yokoiama). The event was a complete success, like all others conducted by AKKB. See the photo illustrations at HISTÓRICO, on the bottom of the page at: wwwakkbcombr/

This was originally the reason for the pursuit of scientific approach to find a reasonable explanation for the facts below mentioned (Main subject here is the knowledge of fighting with empty hands) Conclusion: “As a sport activity Martial Arts aren't real” so only the military men know better this hidden truth. e.g. They’ll never smash the opponents throat, break a leg, neck bones or blind a fellow during a sport competition and of course just because It’s not a valid strategy.

@theriobeserko

MMA is not street fight, agreed. Striking arts are no more geared to deal with the mentioned situations than grappling arts, still no technical reason grapplers have an advantage. As far as the STR33TZ argument, it is better to come up with a solution based on your knowledge of fighting, leverage, control, technique, balance than some "technique" specific to a situation
