anyone trained to be a UFC fighter?

Wrestlers always win!!!

Fights are always won on the ground!
Srry, I just felt like saying that! I am a wrestler.

WRONG!!! Submission fighters always win .....BJJ and shoot fighting. Wrestler only win if they know submissions

Very True! But most wrestlers do know submission fighting!!

All fights are won/lost on the ground!

Jerry Bolander worked out at the same gym I did a couple years ago. I had friends from HS that trained with the Shamrocks at the Lions Den. Submission is the best way to win there....

I don't think its exaclty what school can you find to help you fight good in the UFC. But what kind of background do you already have? You atleast need to have been taught either some type of Karate, wrestling, jiu jitsu, since you were a teen before you would have a chance to be descent in the ring of UFC. If you're already 25yrs old and have had no high level of training from 1 of those ilisted since you were a teen then i wouldn't think about it. Cause all of the guys that are the best in the ring have been training their whole lives...

Not true. Frank Shamrock started training in his late twenties with no background, and dominated the sport. But, generally, you are right.

Grapplers don't always win.

I have a very strong Muay Thai background, and a good amount of grappling skills and I'm comfortable on the ground. When I fight MMA, I find myself using Thai a lot of the time and I have a very good record so far. Most of my wins being from strikes not submissions.

so brazilian ju-jitsu seems to be pretty dominant, i like submission but hasve heard those bjj are fucking dangerous

Any good BJJ school can prepare you for a NHB match.Check your phone listings for BJJ schools in your area.

Huck nailed this one. I've been to several NHB or UFC matches and anytime a fighter was disciplined in BJJ and the other fighter was not, the BJJ fighter won EVERY SINGLE TIME. It didnt matter what the other fighter was trained in or the size difference. This convinced me to take up BJJ 3 years ago. I should complete my black belt soon. My brother got his BJJ black belt about 3 years ago and I will tell you he is a bad mofo. All he had to do was get into a couple of fights and now no one wants to mess with him.

Here's a funny story. I was watching my brother play in a flag football game and I had showed up late and didnt know what the score was. I saw this guy that I know is one of my brother's friends and he is pretty swole up. So I asked him what the score was. He said he didnt know. I said "well go ask D" and he said "MAN FUCK YOU, I'M NOT ASKING HIM SHIT. THAT DUDE IS LIABLE TO JUST PUT ME IN A CHOKE HOLD JUST FOR INTERRUPTING HIM." He didnt know I was his brother. I thought it was funny. He was scared to even ask him a question.
