For those of you who know about MMA & professional fighting, I'm looking for some advice. I want to be a well-rounded fighter. I would prefer to be slightly better on the floor than stand up fighting as far as submissions & grappling go. I am wondering what would be the best approach for this? I am thinking that definitely a Ju Jitsu background would keep me covered on the ground. All those arm bars, chokes, submissions, etc will be great for ground work. I am thinking Mauy Thai for stand up? A buddy of mine suggested mixed martial arts, but I don't feel it'll give me the tools I need to succeed. Anyways, I wanted to get your opinions on what forms of the arts to pursue in order to be most successful.
