You guys would be better off taking some time and training with someone in MMA/BJJ for a period of time. Not this "I visited a couple times" shit (whatever that means anyways)! Many of you are the first to say that a newbie in "IMA" has to put in the time to understand your art. Yet you turn around a visit a MMA gym a couple of times and think you have all the answers, and really.... you don't.
I am not going to waste the time arguing any of these points since it will head down the same road it always does here. Instead I beg you guys to actually spend some time (6+months uninterrupted training with a talented teacher) and THEN come back and offer some of your thoughts in this arena.
Cheers
