Just wondering.
:head:.... That's what I'm talk'n bout.... :head:"Im a stand up kinda guy".:twisted:
Hahaha.good one. I lived by ice palace for a little while but Im from Kaneohe, now I have been in Vegas for bout 2 years....Oh and yes I also agree if you are going to take a type of stand up take muay tai instead of kick boxing. But you do need to be well rounded. There is always the punchers chance and some people have it more than others. Good luck anyways.if they cant get past your fists and feet then how are they gonna take you down? lol It doesnt need to go to the ground if they are sleeping already.
While incorporating various martial arts together is always beneficial, a person fighting in MMA can still be successfull, just by being proficient at what he or she does, without incorporating other styles. Hence, Chuck Liddell."Still, like it has been said before, learning multiple arts is 100%necessary for success."
Being superb at several arts is not necessary, but at least being able to defend another person is. For example, when Chuck Liddell fought Jeremy Horn the furst time, he did not know what to do once he was on the ground and got choked out. However, he has since learned how to defend against grapplers and just because he doesn't use subs that doesnt mean he is not skilled in grappling. Crocop is also an example of this. When he first started MMA, he was very susceptible to the ground, but now that he has been training with Werdum, he has a better set of skills which he has incorporated into his game. The first and second fights with Wandy highlight the difference. The first time, Wandy would take CC to the ground when he was in trouble, but he was not able to do so in their last fight and got KTFO'd.While incorporating various martial arts together is always beneficial, a person fighting in MMA can still be successfull, just by being proficient at what he or she does, without incorporating other styles.

I have been involved with MMA since I was a little one. I have won fights, I have lost fights. Not once, have I ever had the intent to take the opponent to the ground. This would mean that I have to get close to him.... avoiding close, unnecessary contact as much as possible, is the one thing I have instilled in my fighting style throuought the years, and it has proven successful.
Thats a nice area. I was there a couple of months ago. I think I was in Haleiwa when I ran across some guys training in BJJ. I had just come out of the ocean and was soaking wet, I wanted to roll with them soooo bad but my fiance wanted to get going. I think they were a part of Renzo Gracie academy. When I told them that I train under Carlson Gracie in Chicago, they wanted me to roll with them too! Oh well, maybe next time.auuuuurigh! haha Aiea Oahu brah. I saw your post in the BJ Penn Matt Hughes thread and i swear i saw some pigeon english come out fast kine!
