anyone trained to be a UFC fighter?

O.K. BS has been called. I said I'm close, but still not really that close. Plus I had Judo before so that helped me along quick.

BUT I'm trying hard dude! Wearing my ass out.

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.

So, you've been to what, 1 NHB fight? It doesn't happen that way.

I've never studied BJJ formally so I don't know how the belt system works, but I've studied 5 other arts since age 7 and trained at a MMA dojo for years. No art I've ever studied that had a belt system allowed a black in 3 years. Didn't matter if you trained every day for four hours.
 
between submission and bjj which would you guys prefer? honestly though how long would it take before i could....lets say defend myself,, i am a pretty good street fighter..clubs/bars etc etc but want to have no fear when challenged;)

BJJ is submission wrestling. If you go to a GOOD submission wrestling school you will learn just as much about ground fighting. It's not like the Gracies have a special secret rear naked choke, arm bar, or knee bar. The submission moves have been around for centuries, the Romans had competions, that's where the Olympics came from.

After 6 months you will know more about take downs and ground fighting then anyone that isn't schooled.
After 1 year it will start to come naturally to you, then you'll be dangerous.

Contrary to popular belief, BJJ doesn't automatically make you an unstoppable machine. In my opinion wrestling is every bit as dangerous. The wrestlers have taken the scene by storm. Here's a few who defeated some of the top BJJ fighters in the world. (and these fighters are pure wrestlers, you will hardly ever see them attempt a legit submission, so this is just to disprove your theory that a fighter who isn't disciplined in BJJ has no chance)

Matt Hughes defeated Carlos Newton.
Randy Courture gave Vitor Belfort the beat down of his life.
Dan Henderson beat Allan Goes.
Mark Kerr beat Inson Inoue.
Mark Coleman has opened up a few cans of whoop ass for a couple BJJers.
These are just a few, and you can just as easily name some BJJ fighters who have given wrestlers a tough time.
All I'm saying is that just because someone knows BJJ, doesn't make them unbeatable.
 
just found a pretty good website mma.tv they have a discussion board and a training facility finder, time to put my power & strength into bjj:karate:

Actually the olympics came from ancient greece and the sport was call pankration.
And mma.tv is a great site with tons of info. Nearly all famous fighters post there, including mark coleman, royce gracie, bas rutten, tito ortiz, randy couture, mario sperry, etc.
 
First of all no one just jumps in the cage and fights in the UFC. Most fighters have years of expirience in MMA. The best way to get in the UFC is to do some amateur submission fights and then get noticed by a promoter. If you want to start training try going to a ju jitsu do jo.
